Those long hard practices during which the foot- ball team was pushed to its limits paid off as the team found the strength on the field to recover from a losing season by eliminating three straight opponents.

Opening OUR NEED RAISES THE ROOF After three years of crowded rooms and classes in the cafeteria, $2,398,208 and an architect changed it all. In 1977 the school board recognized the need for an addition to house the excess 400 students and to provide equal facilities throughout the district. The construction of thirteen new classrooms on the second floor began in the summer. While the steel and sheetrock went up overhead, we saw a need to raise our level of competition by demanding more of ourselves. For the first time we competed in UIL literary events as we hosted the competition. Our newly formed debate team coached by Jimmy Elliott contended successfully against the experts. Before the bulls could be judged in the Baytown Youth Fair and Rodeo, they are washed by their owners. OUR REACH DOESN'T STOP AT THE SECOND FLOOR The work crews did not leave as the second floor neared completion; instead, they started bulldozers and went to work on a twenty-meter hole behind the boys’ gym. This hole was reinforced with concrete and soon became known as our new swimming pool. In addition to the swimming pool, construction spanned from the east to west corners of the campus, encompassing a new agriculture building, a new parking lot. and an all-weather track. Just as we had seen the need to raise our level of competition, we began to discover how to add on to what we had Our cross country team went beyond their district title by qualifying two runners for the state meet. Our Junior Classical League ended their competition with ten awards in various Latin contests at the state convention in Austin. Sterling Star Dian Hardison trans- forms into Superman during a routine at Nimitz Stadium. The same summer rains which produced the heavy flooding in the Baytown area delay the con- struction of the agriculture build- ing.

Beyond the performance of Susan Brewer and the rest of the band at football games they compete m dis- trict and regional competition bring- ing home 104 first division ratings Junior Tony Whittington boots the football for one of his seven record field goals during the win over Aldme The sound of electric drills and hammering echoed throughout the room as a brilliantly designed paper aircraft landed on the desk after completing its journey from the class next door And class still went on Students and teachers in both the history and language halls pretended not to notice the sounds of progress that drifted down from the second floor through the walls and ceiling during a three-month stage in which the insulation and ceiling panels were removed. Just as we ignored the sounds from over the walls, we found it necessary as we trained and studied for competition to dismiss the boasting words of the opposition's increasing lead. We knew that if ever there came a moment when we started to listen to this noise, it would mean our defeat. Our football team was downgraded by every paper in the area when compared with its crosstown rival. Yet a midseason conference among the senior members decided to shut the ears of the team and play football. This they did as they came back to win three straight games against some of the toughest teams in the district. Q Opening 8 SOMETIMES OUR GROWTH LETS THE ROOF LEAK As our building increased by one story, the holes and cracks in the ceiling gathered numbers awaiting torrential rains to make their assault upon the unaware structure. The drips and puddles reached such proportions that the library had to be closed one day for reinforcement. As we walked the halls amidst the waves and tides, we realized it was just the temporary pains of growing up. We tried to prepare for the onslaught by arming ourselves with buckets and mops. These buckets and mops took the form of training and study as we moved into broader competition At times we spread our talents so thin that some areas were left vulnerable and lacking in armor. We made up for this hole in our defense by initiating a student involvement program sponsored by the student council. This program paid off at Christmas when a student council drive for the poor yielded over 2000 cans of food and three hundred dollars. A month earlier the student body pitched in to build the largest bonfire in the history of the school Amidst the candy and ers being exchanged among friends on Valentine's Day. the teachers are treated to cookies and sweets by the V.O.

G Ncwmjn 0 Su'ht OUR Cl JkQKl IS MORE THAN WE BARGAINED FOR Whenever we discussed the addition to our building, we talked in terms of thirteen new classrooms, a pool, and other construction. Somewhere between our talks and the bulldozers, the architects slipped in thirteen new storage areas, seven new bathrooms, five new offices, two new locker rooms, and a yearbook darkroom. Through all the construction we assumed we were only adding those new classrooms, but we we were gaining much more. Studying from test to test and pushing ourselves each day at practice, we looked only at the immediate results like good grades or a good performance. But each day. benefits of which we were not aware slipped their way inside. Before we realized it. we had learned something or improved to a point we had not thought possible. The yearbook staff worked each year to improve on the previous book In this endeavor the staff never realized that their work on the 1979 Governor would merit a Medalist Certificate from Columbia University or three awards from state ILPC convention Opening The latex white paint and the dull grey concrete contrast the stark changes taking place both inside and outside the building 8 Sun D Stamm For the first year the band welcomes the football team onto the field with a rousing rendition of the fight song. Running over fifty miles a week is no unusual feat for cross country runner Hershel Vinyard. He and the rest of the varsity team began training in July in hopes of qualifying for the state meet. � Opening When we entered school on September fourth there were noted additions and changes in the structure of the building Just as our learning center had changed, we. too. were to undergo a change As the final days of August drew near, summer was drawing to a close, and we were to trans- form to students once more But this trans- formation did not mean that our fun was about to end The building served as a foun- dation on which friendships emerged daily Ounng classes, in between, and those ever- so-important weekends provided time for those friendships to flourish Whether it be arriving at school attired in a Hefty garbage bag. or performing the bunny hop in the commons, there was definitely time for fun When the end of the week approached, plans for the weekend had long been made On Fridays during football season many students frequented Vaudeville Pizza Parlour to discuss the outcome of the prior game or plan for the weekend Those plans might consist of attending a Fairgrounds dance or the sold-out Styx concert in Houston For some the weekend might serve to provide the time for the big dates such as Homecoming, banquets, and the Prom Some weekends were not quite so structured as students merely chose to go shopping at a Houston mall or cruising in and around Baytown, frequently visiting everybody's favorite — McDonald s Yes. we were students ready to achieve, but it was the additions of the previous mentioned experiences that helped to color our achievements. adding life 12 I (Lm Student Lite (a) On Fridays Ranger spirit is always abundant Renee Reed finds the cafeteria a suitable placo to exhibit her spirit (b) Starr Redden.

It was a decade full of surprises and celebration Our country celebrated its 200th birthday under the red. white, and blue, even though just two years prior we were put to the true test of democracy when the political scandal of the century was uncovered. Watergate. From politics to electronics we were definitely a society under progressive change. The hem- line was raised and lowered as many times as the Dow Jones Industrial Average And throughout it all our emotions were tested and re-tested as they seemed to be on a perpetual roller coaster ride Viet Nam permeated our lives as more than 47.000 Americans were killed in a war our government never declared as such Unrest surfaced everywhere, but especially among the young; the ringing shots at Kent State bluntly remind of this, as four students were killed by National Guards- men. As a result of vast confusion and mental turmoil protests and riots were abundant. cont All in the Family made its mark on night- time television as it was the first of its kind to recognize bigotry and intolerance on the air P O W bracelets were worn by thousands of devoted women throughout the country in hope Of our prisoners speedy release The deacde of the self is most vividly exemplified by T-shirts that became human billboards of self-expression Student Life M Roug+i History was made when in 1973 Calculators, a by-product of President Richard Milhouse the electronic age became a Nixon resigned from office on common sight in both homes national television and schools iOth Ceoluty Fq I As a Unale to the biggest birth- day party our country ever received, fireworks throughout the U S illuminate the sky on Bicentennial Sunday Jogging illustrated by Allison Hawkins seems to be ust the outlet we need to relieve us from the increasing societal pres- sures. while simultaneously indulging in another phase ot self-improvement The futuristic melodrama is the biggest box-office success since Gone With the Wind It comes as a welcome relief to movie goers tired ot the typical love stones and disaster films cont If some group was not protesting for minority equality, women's liberation, or whale protection, they were protesting against the draft, nukes, or governmental corruption. Only to add to the already confused and deflated spirits were the various ' crunches'' that gnawed at both our pocketbook and our patience. The energy crisis infiltrated our daily routines as we were constantly reminded to conserve As our nation worried about stockpiling oil for the future the dollar shrunk to an all-time low But the single-most crunch occurred at the end of the decade when fifty Americans were taken hos- tage by a country that only months before were will- ing business associates. But we did not let these trials and tribulations slow us down We were an enterprising populace full of energy ready to advance both our minds and bod- ies. Technology crept into our home in the forms of digital timepieces, pocket calculators, electronic audio games, and micro-wave ovens As a vent to the advancing automation.

We Are Family a Sunn Student Life Meeting New Faces While the students were caught up in the mania of the upcoming football season, the parents' main concern was grades instead of football stats. Both needs were met at the Pigskin Preview and later at Parent's Night. The Pigskin Preview on September 4 brought in the new football season Eleven coaches, with four being new coaches, and team members were introduced This pep-rally was the first for the new Ranger mascot. Byron Pepper Byron commented. I was very scared since it was my first time to appear Just as Ranger fans were introduced to the football team at the Pigskin Preview, parents got the chance to be introduced to teachers at Par- ent's Night on October 16. In addition to the ten minute meeting with teachers, parents were wel- comed by an orchestra performance and also viewed various exhibits. The new Ranger mascot.

Gary Souther, one of the helpers, commented. 'It was our last year, so we did everything we could to make our senior year the best ever.

Student Life Student Lite ‘Beat the L out of REL' Beat the L out of REL! The chant rose to a loud roar during the week of the Lee game Students broke out in chorus after chorus of “The Night We Drove Old Dixie Down. accompanied by the honking of duck callers Each day students devised new slogans and modes of dress to build spirit for the upcoming game In one week the Ganders were hunted down, sneaked up on. and tied up. The intensity with which the student body participated in each spirit building activity showed better than anything else the degree of rivalry that exists between the schools So fierce is the competition that seasons are judged by who wins that volleyball, basketball, baseball, or football game. It would seem that there is no room between schools to be anything but rivals, and yet when the cleats are set aside and the jerseys are shed, old friendships have a way of surfacing. Off the field they go to the same parties, shows, restau- rants. and concerts. Even during the week of the Lee game, the antagonism between schools was temporarily set aside at the Good sportsmanship breakfast Represent- atives from organizations at both schools met the Wednes- day before the game to show that friendships would still exist, regardless of the Friday outcome. Our students remembered that when the numbers on the scoreboard went against us. Lee had the chance to go on in the playoffs, and both our spirit and enthusiasm went with them. The booster club and band sent telegrams of support Some of our students even attended the playoff game in the ’Astrodome Lee’s winning streak was short- lived and the season drew to a close Rivals became friends again . until THE next game ....Yet friends A school activity such as the Twirp Dance is likely to have students attending from both schools John Sappington and Carol Gregerson. a Lee cheer- leader. switch ihe traditional roles of the dance Carol is John's guest. The idea of traveling to the Astrodome to watch crosstown rivals in the playoffs may sound strange. but Kathy McDonald and Melanie Moore did not go to see our rivals They went to support thee friends The Lee varsity jacket that Vickie Brennan is wearing makes stark contrast next to Donna Choate's blue one. and it exemplifies the close ties that can exist between the two schools, even through Lee Week Her boyfriend.

In Baytown. Where is that? When quizzed about the location of our city one could answer ... thirty miles east of Houston, eighty miles west of Beaumont, and forty miles north of Galveston. Many of us simply reply. Near Houston. Baytown is not just a suburb of metropolitan Houston but a town with its own personal identity. That iden- tity can be accredited to Baytown's long slate of historical heritage. The first residents played a major role in the sixth most important military battle in the world, the Battle of San Jacinto. Although this battle was the initial phase of our heritage, the actual history of Baytown did not begin until the discovery of oil along Tabbs Bay in 1916 and 1917. It is the discovery of this oil that turned a small, strug- gling community into an overnight boom town. This boom town flourished rapidly as former Governor Ross S. Sterling organized the loca- tion for the new Humble Oil and Refinery. Little did anyone suspect that this refinery, now known as Exxon, would grow to become one of the largest in the world. Baytown was begun as a tri-city consisting of Pelly, Goose Creek, and Baytown, but on January 24, 1948 was consolidated, adopting Baytown as the name to unify the three cities. Because of its location, only thirty miles from the fifth largest city in the U.S.. we can share in the big city advantages of Houston while simultaneously enjoying the warmth of a com- munity atmosphere. Houston offers us year- round entertainment ranging from the football spectaculars of the Oilers to the grandeur of the Houston Grand Opera. Not only can we share in the cultural enrichment that Houston provides, but by living only forty miles from Galveston, we can indulge in the sandy beaches and salt water in a single afternoon. Looking ahead, Baytonians will enjoy the facilities afforded by one of Texas' largest shopping malls located at Garth Road and Interstate 10 to be completed in the next year.

When can a student walking down the hall hear such bits of conversation as, What are you getting your secret pal?. Don’t forget your canned goods!.” Can you believe someone actually brought thirty cans? We re going to Louisiana next week to visit relatives. or Have you found a blood donor yet? The Christmas rush had definitely caught hold the week before the Christ- mas holidays. There were varied activi- ties the week of December 19th that kept students as busy as Santa's elves. The Student Council sponsored a can- ned goods drive, and m only eight days collected over 2.000 cans from the stu- dent body. In addition, the Stars hosted a blood drive where over 150 pints were donated by students and faculty alike. As Mr Watchel stated in his morning message on December 19th. You have proved your unity over the past weeks beyond question The canned goods drive, the Blood Drive — all of this adds up to one thing — you are a school with class. Many clubs and organizations chose secret pals. and gifts were exchanged during Christmas parties. The perplexing question of How can I remember fifteen of my friends for under thirty dollars? seemed to be a typical conversation piece With prices on the increase, many students chose to make stuffers and fill them with candy canes and other goodies. Dana Hutchison painted ceramic stockings and filled them with candy Another enterprising idea was intercepted by Priscilla Alfaro, who fashioned key rings for many of her friends. As an added surprise, school was dismissed at 2:50 p.m. But after all the cards had been handed out and class parties were over, there were twelve days of vacation for students to do as they wished. Others saw the relished twelve days as a chance to catch up on viewing day-time soaps. Some stu- dents became travellers as they took to the road and visited relatives, or spent days skiing on the snow-capped slopes of Colorado Student Life it ine ha Is are not I by Tamm tf ’ « ' O'Toole.

This is probably what is said when someone tries out a new fashion that turns into the latest fad Where did that person get the idea for a new trend? Trend-setting is influenced by the media Students are bombarded with advertisements promising notoriety The jean commercials try to convince viewers that if they buy that pair of jeans their figures will look as good as the people on television. As everyone cannot look like a fashion model, students settle for dressing like one. Lisa Gersteman explained. “Everyone wants to look like Charlie s Angels. All it takes for a new fashion to spread is for someone to ask. Where did you get it? This starts a chain reaction Within a few weeks, the new style is commonly seen in the halls. John Selmsky stated it best when he said. Fads start because people want to be recognized, i.e the Mohawk haircuts. Trends that were more common were also designed to catch someone's attention, such as out- rageously bright clothing or the prestigious Izod shirts Why is fashion so important? As Sharon Burns stated. People feel better and more important about themselves if they are wearing clothes in style.

This is it, I'm going to do it this time. as she nervously dials the first three numbers for the fifteenth time — Twirp Week, of course. The week of January 14th provided the chance for a type of role reversal in the dat- ing situation. The tables were turned, and now the girls had the chance to ask that spe- cial guy out. The Student Council-sponsored events included a 3-D movie shown Monday night, and the traditional Twirp Dance held in the commons Friday night. Students’ reactions to the movie were representative of the response from Amy Skinner: The movie was sharp except when the 3-D glasses fell off; they didn't fit very good! At the next planned event, the dance, the Twirp Court was announced. Greg Fontenot was named Twirp King with Craig Russell. Prince. Dell Martin. Jay Neal. Jerry Futch. and David Brysch were named Dukes. Although there were only two planned events, many girls chose to twirp during the week also. Such dates included attending movies, going to eat pizza, or simply watching T V Aside from night activities, Twirp events were planned for the school day during all three lunches. On Monday a bubble-blowing contest was held; Tuesday, a jump-rope con- test: Wednesday, the belly-wrap ; Thursday, tug-o-war, and on Friday girls brought their date for the night a box of goodies. What did the guys think of this turn-about? As Kyle Rhodes commented. I enjoyed it; I think they ought to do it more often. It was nice!

Walking, that outdated mode of transit, still exists, surpris- ingly enough The route becomes a crash course in self- preservation. It is a real trick to make it to school without being run over, splattered by mud. or drenched in the unexpected downpour It is that same downpour that embarrasses the student who rides with 'Mom Even though the ram is coming down in bucketfuls, he refuses to allow Mom to drop him off at the covered walkway He wants to be let out on the sidewalk so that no one will know that his mother brought him. ■•Mom. of course, has to drive right up to the front door, so he steps out. nonchalantly, hoping that no one notices him. Oh. to be a freshman and be forced to depend on Mom” or the bus to get to school! The bus ride home is a lesson in survival of the fittest Those students who live through the after-school stampede are champion sprint- ers. since they must make a mad dash first to catch the bus. and then to get a seat Ah yes the car. the symbol of independence, brings many benefits such as bottoming out on the speed bumps, being trapped in a parking place because Mom parks in the middle of the isle so Junior will see her; dying in the middle of baker Rd. because the last five dollars was spent on lunch instead of gas; and trying to devise a new way to leave the parking lot that does not involve the buses Once the parking lot clears, however, the automobile gains the advantage Motorcyclists too often feel the uncomfortable brush of a bumper nudging them aside While bicyclists also have to contend with cars, it is not their biggest problem. The bicyclist becomes an expert on parking conditions. He learns to negotiate every stray brick, loose piece of wire, and discarded nail that the con- struction workers leave behind. Yes. the path to school is a hard one laced with many hardships, but if one is to be in class at 8 A M. in the morn- ing. some pitfalls must be endured Student Life Weekends are often usod for repairing knocks and rattles in cars.

Today is January 1st. That means only twenty-four more payments to go. and I'll have my car paid off.'' Buying a car is one of the principal reasons that students name for obtaining a part-time job. Working also brings other benefits, as Becky Gomez stated. I like hav- ing spending money. It seems that tapes, stereos, gas. dates, and extra clothes are not among the priorities for which parents are willing to dole out money. Students are either forced to get a job. or do without. There are even those students like Kirk LeBlanc who work to earn money for college I've got both a history and English test, twenty pages of notes and a trig test. I don't know how I'm going to pass. To top it off. I have to work tonight. It makes me feel like the whole world’s closing in on me. These are some of the drawbacks of working and going to school, as stated by Brian Copeland. Students find themselves arranging things by order of convenience rather than importance. Homework is pushed aside, trips have to be postponed or cancelled, and dates have to be refused Are such things as extra money or a car worth the trou- ble? Those students who have a job think that it is. Most of them feel that they receive more than just money from their jobs. Jeanna Richardson responded. Most defi- nitely. yes. I learn a sense of responsibility. Students feel that they gain independence from holding down a job. and receive experience in the business world Brad Crone explained. The experience that I get makes it worth the time that I have to give up.

Mr. Terry Ryal's voice grew familiar to Seniors as his fireside chicken chats became an ominous reminder that it was up to them to sell as many tickets as pos- sible if they were to be ensured a great Prom. Sales were slow at first, but Master Chicken's messages warning them that their Prom could be the first ever to be held on the roof top of the Bluebonnet Motel finally convinced the Seniors to revert to selling techniques they never thought themselves capable of. Visiting every business, bank, and apartment complex in town, they were able to col- lect over 20.000 dollars from ticket sales.

By the time they were dismissed early for the tradi- tional Skip Day. though, the gray sky was replaced by a sunny, blue one The extra time afforded by the early dis- missal was used in a variety of ways ranging from hair appointments and manicures to simply catching a few rays before the special night. The big date began early for most couples as they chose to dine out in Houston before the dance. After meeting parents, pinning on boutonnieres and corsages, and taking enough pictures to fill an entire photo album, most couples started on their way about 6:30 p m Upon arrival at the Houston Oaks, Seniors immedi- ately recognized the theme that had been chosen earlier as “Sail On. In accordance, the foyer to the dance area had been decorated with small replicas of hot air balloons. The actual Prom had begun, and tiny blue balloons marked Sail On would be remembered long after the last dance as being representative of a night that had been anticipated for four years. Although the actual Prom ended at midnight, for many the night was not near over. After changing into casual clothes, many couples headed to Astroworld as the mid- dle of fun was recognizing Senior Night and were open until 6 a m.

The only flaw in this description is its incompleteness. This brief sentence fails to mention the story behind the night. It says nothing of the seniors' struggle to keep the caps in an upright position while marching onto the field, much less the work put into gain- ing the right to accept that piece of paper called a dip- loma. The tale cannot be told in one sentence, nor will one paragraph fit the description of each graduate's years in high school, for while all the robes were alike each body underneath was an individual. Yet for each student on the field, graduation marked the end of twelve years of free-education. The two hours spent listening to inspiring speeches and waiting for senior assistant principal Mar- cellus Harmon to call the next row hardly compared to the almost endless amount of time that had brought each student from the first grade to this thirteenth graduating class. Yet the moment seemed so final as that one hand- shake with school board president Bees Barolak meant no more fighting to stay awake in that early first period on Mondays and no more Friday doctors' appointments at the beach. These commencement exercises were the end of the background for life and the beginning of on- the-job training.

At the same time, these achievements enabled them to be distinguished among the entire student body It was these students that we recognized as our Personalities. Each trimester Introduced a new type of Personality to be selected During first tri- mester the traditional Homecoming Court composed of four duchesses, a Senior Prin- cess, and Queen were chosen. On a slightly different note, second trimester brought the recognition of the Twirp Court composed of four Dukes, a Senior Prince, and King. Early in the third trimester each class elected eight students as their Favorites. During the latter part of the final trimester, grade point were tallied and re-tallied as the Top Ten Senior students were recognized. The tables were turned in the election process during the last few weeks of school as teachers nom- inated and selected the dignified Sterling Citizens. Whether it was reaching aca- demic excellence or being everyone’s friend, our various Personalities added to create our multi-faceted student body. Personalities (a) Lieutenant Governor Eric Eike and his Lady Juh Oxford are presented with congratulatory plaques and a flower arrangement from hostess Marcia Jor- dan immediately after being named (b) Dancing ceases for a short time while the Twirp Court is recognized Greg Fontenot (Twirp King) Craig Russell (Prince) Dell Martin.

After a trip to Europe this summer, she intends to study chemical engineer- ing at Texas A M The salutatorian. Melissa Golden, has been interested in politics ever since her selection to Girls’ State by her teachers during her junior year. She also attended a legislative intern program as Ed Emmett's prot6g6. Her plans include working in the Representative's campaign and majoring in legal studies at Rice University. By spending summers working for his father's oil and natural gas production company. Steve Pruett, the third highest grad- uate. became interested in following his father s footsteps. At the University of Texas he would like to study petroleum engi- neering and eventually found his own company. On the other side of the spectrum, Barbara Fridley, ranked fourth, has been involved with music since her sixth grade year. She has been active in the Ragin' Ranger Band for four years, playing the cornet, and. as a senior, leading the band as drum major. The fifth graduate, Darrell Starnes, will attend the New Mex- ico Institute of Mining and Technology where he will major in computer science. Darrell discovered his interest in the sci- ence of computers at a University of Houston workshop. For his computer project Darrell was awarded a first in the district science fair (math) as well as overall winner. Norman Lisa Stutts, ranked sixth, has shown a tremendous talent for business and accounting work. She was an active mem- ber of the VOE-OEA club and went to State contests in shorthand. She plans to attend Lee College where she will study accounting. The seventh highest graduate. Jennifer Barrow, has taken piano for seven years. During this time she has participated in several recitals. Eighth ranked Katie Entringer has had a longtime interest in writing. Rather than enter essay contests, she prefers to write on her own creatively. Mr. John Gordon, her English teacher, commented. She has tremendous originality. Her writings reflect not only interest but feeling. Her term theme was fantastic. Jeff Murray, number nine, has lettered all four years on the Ranger golf team. Because of his interest in golf. Jeff has attained a job in the pro shop of the Goose Creek Coun- try Club. His future plans include undergraduate work at Baylor University and later, medical school. The tenth ranked student. Wendy Olney. is interested in a communications-oriented job. She enjoys getting informa- tion across to the public and expressing her ideas. The contrasts of these students' interests is evident; how- ever. the one binding force of the Top Ten is their desire for success and the enthusiasm with which they pursue it. Each one of them remarked that they would like a challenging career that would bring forth talents that are as yet unknown to them. Personalities 53 November 9. 1979: The chill of the November night and the thrill of anticipation set a feverish mood that only this event could bring. The win over Aldine. the sparkling half- time show, and the dance made the last Homecoming of the decade very special. The Rangers retired to the locker room with an unexpected half- time lead over the Aldine Mustangs; the enthusiasm was already at a peak. The Home- coming representatives were escorted by their fathers inside a huge heart formed by the Stars and band, accompanied by the band's mellow tones of Blue World.

Now she can be seen at school and church activities. Experience is the guiding factor with some gifted people. Lana Ocker was introduced to the world of modeling by attending a Ben Shaw showing. This led her to one of his courses and the prospect of future modeling jobs. The ability to direct the attention of a crowd is one aspect of auctioning that fascinated Scott Jor- don. With the tutoring of Rocky Walker, he learned the trade well enough to be the auctioneer for the teacher slave sale. He attended Texas A M this past summer and received his auctioneer’s license. Coupling a talent with an art career can rely on luck as well as talent. Jose Martinez has already made a good start at the Houston Livestock show winning two second place ribbons. For Roilyn Badgett, the hours spent perfecting her twirling ability are worth it. She captured five titles at the AAU state meet which earned her the title Overall High Point Champion. Some talents stem from simple activities like tak- ing home movies. Tom Cody put his father’s cam- era to work making his own films. He has produced such cinemascopic marvels as The Cool Dudes and The Cool Dudes II” and is considering entering his work in future contests.

STEVE PRUETT “ Sterling Citizens Though some were fleeting and rejoicing in the knowledge that the game had been a rout, he crossed the field with weary strides and an outstretched hand to console the losers. Dean Mohlman knew the time for celebration would come soon enough, but for now. encouragement was in order. Sin- cere sportsmanship, whether compassion or congratulations, made him overlooked but not forgotten. He presided over the Fel- lowship of Christian athletes with the same principles he upheld after an easy victory After a heartbreaking defeat on the foot- ball field, it would have been easy to be a critic or despairer in the doldrums of the locker room beneath the stands. But Gor- don Ludtke closed his ears to any cynicism In fact, he could usually be found offering condolences to a pain-numbed teammate or lauding one of the starters for a daring per- formance with his considerate sincerity and subtle leadership. A slight miscue and Lt. Col. Juli Oxford ordered the Star corps to start from the top because she knew all the audience would see was the fancy fieldwork and not the behind-the-scenes duties such as hers. The extra hours spent keeping records and orders straight proved worthwhile after a shining performance when she received all the gratification necessary to make her thankless job seem worth all the dedication and non-stop demands A pair of watchful eyes scanned the track as some seasoned veterans sprinted around the winding path An unending drive and self-discipline bolstered Laurie Leissner into four grueling yet rewarding years as a varsity track team mainstay From the time she was a freshman anticipating making the squad, these traits carried over into her aca- demic life as well, for she was a member of the NHS also. As she tossed a baton headlong into the cold night air of a November football game, all eyes focused on the spinning, flashing figure of a twirler A hushed anticipation was disrupted by one quick, graceful catch of the frigid object. Such concentration, con- sistency. and dependability exemplified Bar- bara Fridley and the manner in which she handled everyday challenges like home- work or her three year twirler stint which led to her title of drum major Perspiration cascading off his brow from a vigorous football workout, he climbed into his car. satisfied another daily ritual could be left behind with the sunset. Though the physical work was complete, the academic efforts still waited Steve Pruett. The added responsibility of leading the Key Club and NHS did not deter him from his mental ambi- tions. for his motivation and thirst for knowl- edge were complimented by a Top Ten ranking and the title of a National Merit com-_ mended student Personalities 59 Only minutes after exploding it off the tee. he gently coaxed the ball into the coveting confines of a hole, using a masterful putt. Like the con- trasting actions necessary on a golf course. Jeff Murray proved to be forceful when conquering mental courses and graduated number nine in the class. Yet he maintained an almost pacifying persistence and compelling composure in near- ing his ambitions. To control and instruct over 100 freshman reserves required more than a load of patience; it demanded talent, energy, leadership, and vibrant vocal chords. For Jennifer Barrow, the fruits of her efforts lay not in the limited satisfaction of self-promotion, but in the actual awareness of helping often reluctant and inexperienced drill team members blossom into polished performers in her role as Lt. Colonel of the Stars. When everyone else had finished attacking tackling dummies, he would retire to pump weights or review the playbook with a sincere interest in bettering his game. A similar devotion prompted football leader Mark Casey to maintain a never-say-die attitude on the field and off. As student council mentor, he had to be a listener and inspiration to the voice of multitudes. With an appetite for service and a four year tenure on the governing body, his vitality and Christian princi- ples shone through his every deed. Like most members of service or interest clubs, she could have been contented to be just another follower. But because she stood up for what she believed in. she took the reins of a leader for the French club and NHS secretary. Wendy Olney projected the character of a dedicated director who spoke with credibility and conviction. Maneuvering past two tenacious guards, no 55 drove toward the hoop and sank a ten footer for a score. Typical of all of Eric Eike's activities, that's what made him a Sterling Citizen — overcoming adversity, a silent confidence, and a towering power Though the team's season was less than average, he could always be counted on to con- tribute his best. Amidst the confused murmur of typewriters and four people trying to get her attention all at once, an explosion of laughter erupts the pande- monium. Disregarding the pressure of a late deadline, the Governor’s editor Melissa Golden manages to ease the tension of a seemingly hopeless situation with her jovial nature. The same cool disposition allowed her to slam an ace past a defender on the tennis court, where her steady performances were capped with a district runner-up doubles title.

The three o'clock bell for these deter- mined students merely indicated that they had completed only one hour of practice as most athletes have sports sixth period where they begin their long hours of dedi- cated drilling. To most of us. hours on the golf course after school or arriving an hour early before school in order to run six miles seemed like a large price to pay. but the as � self-satisfaction that they gained from know- ing that they were representing their school in the very best form that they possibly could, and the prospect of district recognition were ample rewards for their strife. Those long cold miles in the mud paid off for the cross-country teams as Drew's boys.

While the future looks bright for the Ranger football program, the 1979 Rangers are a team to be remembered and few fans will forget them A team that was able to win three straight games over some of the district's best teams after losing four out of its first five was certainly a team out of the Ranger mold that has produced so many champions. The season started slowly with the Rangers losing their first three games to Westchester. Rayburn, and Galena Park by only slim margins. These losses were attributed to second half mistakes as the Rangers led in the first half in seven of the ten games played. Looking back on a 1-4 record, the seniors called a team meeting before the MacArthur game and established some midseason goals Coach Al Dennis credited the change of attitude of the players to this meeting ‘ What you did when you walked in that Monday in October and turned it around will be with you as long as you live The effect was immediate as the Rangers had the Gen- erals wrapped up until a mistake on a conversion attempt cost them the game by one point. 6-7 (COfltir� ! on p 70) The Ranger Crunch.

Lee. sup- posedly the best team in the district, had been held scoreless for over three quarters. The sophomores’ stamina and persistence during the game was cited by Coach Bruce Paulus. This team lost by a close count, though. 3-6. In the initial contest against Westchester, the Bandits won a close bout 7-6. The win was attrib- uted to a fine defensive effort Max Cuellar inter- cepted a pass and returned it thirty-eight yards for a touchdown. Randall Lansford. who kicked the extra point, successfully completed all attempted extra points in the season. Other wins in the 3-7 season were over Nimitz 7-6 and LaMarque 10-8. Highlighting the Freshman A football 7-2-1 season was a win over Lee by a score of 19-13. The Vols scored with less than a minute on the clock to take the win. In the final game of the season, the team topped Aldine 19-6 to finish third in district. John Tomjack ran a five-yard touchdown in the second quarter, with Trent Ludtke kicking the point after. In that game Darren Hicks and Mike Thompson had key interceptions with David Walsingham recovering a fumble.

With the normal school week, the weekend is the only slip in schedule to learn and practice. Brad Ste- phens commented. The more I practice, the better my skill develops. It seems, though, the only time I get to practice is on weekends. Do-it-yourself sporting adapts itself to the changing seasons. The dedicated do-it-yourselfer will work at his sport regardless of what the weather presents, especially in the winter. Weather and coldness may discourage some, but the skier, hunter, and jogger will put on heavy clothing in hopes of reaching per- sonal goals. The spring do-it-yourselfer, however, shows his true determination when the sun comes out. Heat energy seems to inspire these do-it-yourselfers as they turn to horseback riding, softball, and frisbee for pleasure. The summer months help the do-it-your- selfer practice his sport until it is perfected. The do-it-yourselfer practices by having to give some of his savings to ride for the allot- ted time, such as Malibu Grand Prix. water coasters and roller skating. Prices may rise, but for the do-it-yourselfer who enjoys this, price is no problem. Sharlene Wachtel said. Three dollars is cheap for how much fun you have on a water coaster. Some turn to these sports for reasons other than entertainment. With the health craze of the seventies, many people engaged in sports as a form of exercise, especially to look good in summer apparel. Another advantage, relaxation, takes up the stress of homework, jobs, and other activi- ties. These activities provide a way for stu- dents to get away from it all.

Senior Jeff Murray blistered the courses, scoring among the top ten finishers in all of the season s contests Carding an 81 in the district match to clinch the runner-up medalist spot was freshman Larry Huff Equally consistent, the girls posted finishes among the top ten ranked teams and claimed district supremacy for the sixth straight year Four year letterman Barbara Fridley was low shooter for the Blue in five of their eight contests, cli- maxing the season as a district runner-up medalist.

Revolutionary heroes, and even John Wayne had once been in the park After browsing through the woods, which now housed old discarded refrigerators, cars, and assorted trash, they sat down amongst the littered park with their lap boards and relayed in written themes the shame that people had brought to the park The best themes were sent to the Baytown Clean City Commission.

The class also visited Armond Bayou and Bayland Park for similar Pow-Wows. Field trips were not limited to only this class, how- ever. as two students from each American history class took a field trip to NASA on May 6. Nineteen students also went on the Close-Up trip January 13 and learned about the government by attending a session in the U S. legislature in Washington. Even though not all classes could take field trips. many had guest speakers State Representative Ed Emmett lectured to Mrs. Lynn Houk's class on state government. Russ Mather, Harris County Republi- can Chairman, and Billie Carr. Democratic National Committee women from Texas, gave two different viewpoints in their lectures on party politics. The 12th grade economics class also had a representa- tive from Social Security come to speak. A former Sterling student. C. J. Messiah, spoke on the duties of being a security policeman in the Air Force. To break the monotony, many teachers played games to help students learn Miss Messiah s classes played a work game before tests as a review for tests, while Jeopardy.

At the conclusion of Mrs. Phyllis Dean's sixth period announcement on March 25, 449 exuberant seniors stormed the halls to gain a choice spot in line. These students waited approximately two hours for a chance to sign up for their preferred civic job. On March 18, also in preparation for Civics Day. a political rally and election were held. School board, city council, and mayor nominees made speeches in the auditorium during the political rally. A the end of the rally, as the band played several patriotic marches, drama students pushed balloons from the catwalks The election was held during all three lunches in a red. white, and blue voting booth deco- rated by government students. The elected officials were Gary Souther, mayor; Eric Eike. Brenda Furney. Debbie Bossley, Darrell Starnes, and Melissa Golden, city council members; and Greg Hasley. Steve Pruett. Rusty Pumphrey. Katie Entringer. Chris Jones. Brad Hoover, and Gary Norman, school board officials. Steve Pruett commented.

Mrs Glenda Booth's class also spent time in a lab testing food for their study of digestion and nutrition. Dissection of frogs, worms, and crayfish was also a lab used during biology in studying the systems of the body Although much of the student s time was spent in the lab. they also learned while on field trips Mr Bel- tram's third period chemistry class went to the Exxon Chemical lab in February The Olefins plant was also visited by a chemistry class in May Those interested in medical careers were given a dinner sponsored by the East Harris County Medical Association in March The guest speaker for the ban- quet held at Aroma Cafeteria for fifty Sterling and Lee students was Dr Tweedy from Baylor College of Med- icine.

On the manual side of mathematics, geometry students had their fill of words like constructions, proofs, congruent triangles, graph paper, and compass. The introduction to Algebra II at the end of the year was helpful to those plan- ning to take further math courses. In the higher courses, people found it necessary to keep a calculator at school. Students struggled with logarithms, cosines, and functions, while questioning how does this apply to life?

While burning the midnight oil. students met at teach- ers' houses to prepare for various competitions that included vocabulary, culture, poems, prose, art. and music. Some attended by Latin students included area competition at MacArthur. State Competition in Austin, and Roman Games at Sharpstown. At Trinity University. German stu- dents participated in the Texas Association of German Stu- dents' Convention. French students took a vocabulary test at Houston Baptist University and travelled to French Sym- posium in Austin. On March 28. French. Spanish, and Ger- man students collectively participated in the Foreign Lan- guage Festival at Stephen F. Austin University. As an aid to both studying and contests, teachers devised fun and creative ways to present their lessons. In German class Mrs. Sharon Beavers conducted charades, bingo, password, and hangman. While discussing the charades Karan Wotipka commented. I believe that if you can com- municate simple phrases, you can a whole language. The Latin class, in order to gain experience in college prep bowl competition, played a type of jeopardy with teams, certamen. The French teacher.

Some know it as boredom, apathy, or just plain digust of the everyday rou- tine. How on earth could a teacher break this monotonous flow of work? Games! Everyone loves games, even if they involve algebra theories, German grammar rules, or the rise of the Italian empire. It seems that if the winning team is promised candy or extra points on a test, the studying rates go up con- siderably. Now, when you walk into a classroom, wouldn’t you rather be handed a Bingo card than a study guide? Teachers found that review day” was much more enjoyable and suc- cessful when a game was on the agenda. Mr. Dick Duggan introduced a Jeopardy game to his Chemistry I class. They were divided into four groups. As Mr. Duggan asked a ques- tion, the leaders raised their hands, trying to be the first to answer. The winners of the game were awarded eight points on their test the next day; second place received six points, and soon. Foreign language students put their skills in action through games. French III students played French Monopoly, where they had to pass Depart to collect 200,000 francs. Business education classes prac- ticed their skills through shorthand Password and accounting Bingo. Required courses also offered a time away from the normal testing. History teachers gave an occasional puzzle for a notebook test. Let us not forget the ever popular extra credit puzzles and games.

Those not involved in team or individual sports for school were able to compete and exer- cise their skills in physical education. They learned to appreciate teamwork and to increase their own potential P.E classes offered a various array of sports, such as volleyball, badminton, softball, basketball, and individual sports including tennis, golf, roller skating, archery, and body conditioning. Health students learned the importance of patience and knowledge in an emergency situation. Through the first aid unit, they were required to bandage a victim for various limb and head inju- ries. They practiced mouth-to-mouth resuscitation on a dummy, and practiced carrying an uncon- scious injured person from the scene of an acci- dent. On completing the unit, the students received Red Cross First Aid cards. Other units they studied included nutrition, family living, home nursing, and environmental health. During a softball game.

The library contains approximately twenty-three thousand books, encyclope- dias. and magazines. Due to an increased budget Mrs. Linda Riley was able to acquisition two thousand nine hundred eleven books. Also, the reference and audio-visual sections were strengthened with new edi- tions of the Encyclopedia Brittanica. World Book. biography and synonym and antonym references. The librarians feel that the library has gained a much more well-rounded subject area.

Along with the collected canned goods, turkeys were purchased and distributed among twenty needy families in Baytown I think it’s good that the students can work together to help others. commented Ellie Hebert During the school year monotony breakers such as Twirp Week. Free Fare assembly. Champions assembly, and Ranger Week were also sponsored by the Student Council I thought Free Fare put on a real good performance. I especially liked how they got the audience involved by using recognizable music and the skits involving both the teachers and the students. replied Julie Oyler. Champions, a group from California who were sponsored by the Student Council, presented an audio-visual program The purpose of the program was not only to entertain the students, but to teach this lesson . Everyone can be a winner if they want to be. If one obtains this type of attitude, his or her life will be worthwhile and have more meaning. The last service project for the Student Council members was teaching the imjxjrtance of participation and leadership to junior high students.

Culminating three weeks’ brain-storming and scriptwrit- ing. the yearbook staff sold themselves and their product in a series of spoofs mimicking commercials. This popular sales technique paid off as more yearbooks were sold than any previous year. Despite the highly selective process which insured that those on the staff were the chosen few. the staffers realized at the many workshops that they attended that there was always room for learning. Over the summer the older staff members, along with a few new ones, explored the many facets of yearbook production at Sam Houston State Uni- versity during a week-long workshop session Because of their hard work and due to the fact that a mere month and a half ago the older staffers had been putting the final touches on last year's book, this group netted more awards than any other school at the workshop. The staff attended two days of workshop sessions at Uni- versity of Houston before torrential flooding prevented their return. They also benefited from one day of intense researching of some of the best yearbooks in Texas while at the Balfour office in Houston, a division of Taylor Publishing. In November the experienced staff members ventured to Dallas for the Texas Association of Journalism Directors contest and workshop. Head photographer Gary Norman received a second-place trophy for his excellence in his area of expertise and Melissa Golden copped third-place in advanced layout design. After a full three months of deadlines, the staff took a trip to the Interscholastic League Press Conference held at Uni- versity of Texas in Austin. Here the staff brought home an Award of Achievement for the 78-79 Governor as well as three individual state awards, a first for the staff. In May the yearbook staff wound down to the final weeks of production, trying to add to each spread that special headline or caption that would mean the difference between excellence and just great. Excellence does not come easily 158 Organizations in between accepting awards, advisor Barbara Sultis and Kristi Sultis took over the schedule of the day's sessions to determine which workshops to attend In the midst of the holi- day season sur- rounded by ideas to learn and work to be done.

But the Sentinel staff substituted these expensive tactics with imag- ination and hard work to capture the Award of Achievement of I.L.P.C. in Austin. The first four issues received high points for writing quality, news coverage, photography, and cutlines. When not collaborating on a story to meet a deadline, the staffers were practicing for the district U.I.L. competition. Their efforts paid off as Mark Alford. Jody Harper. Jacque- line Whitaker. Susan Hennessy. and Brent Chappell earned first in editorial writing, second in news writing, second in editorial writing, third in feature writing, and honorable men- tion in feature writing, respectively, to qualify them for regionals. Mark Alford continued his winning ways by achieving first place at the Regional Meet at San Jacinto College and went on to become the seventh best in state competition at the University of Texas. To prepare themselves for these competitions the staff attended the San Jacinto Journalism Day held at the North Campus.

As several of our bands participated in the McAllen Palms Concert and Band Festival, the Symphonic Band competed on Friday. April 16, to win an excellent second division rating. Later that evening everyone went to Reynosa. Mexico, bought souvenirs, and ate at the La Cucaracha restaurant As Saturday morning arose, practicing began for the Jazz Ensemble and Honor Band members. Competing in Edinburg, the Jazz Ensemble received straight first division ratings and was noted best band in class 4-A When we found out that our band was the best in our class, it gave us a feeling of accomplishment and pride.” commented M'Rique Probst When the Honor Band completed their competition, they were given the satisfaction of winning a superior first division rating. It was a great feeling to see and hear the standing ovations as we finished playing,” replied Renee Jones. Among the thirty-six competing bands, they received two of the seven first division ratings awarded When all competitions were over, members loaded up and traveled to the Holiday Inn. South Padre Island. While there, a luau was held for the band members at poolside. The trip came to a close after a funfilled day at the beach in Padre Island. Sixteen band members participated in All-District Band with twelve of those members continuing to participate in the All Region Band.

The three tiresome hours spent every day on the practice field seem a waste for only five minutes of glory under the stadium lights To all the band members, those minutes were like hours of appreciation from all of Baytown. Evidence of this marching ability was also apparent in the ratings they earned at competitions. At the La Marque Marching Festival, the band achieved a first division rating and Barbara Fridley was awarded the honor of outstanding drum major. Again the band came out on top as one of only six 4-A bands who earned straight ones out of sixteen competing bands at the U.I.L. Marching Competition in November at Pasadena. At the home games for the first time, the band performed in the pregame show playing the National Anthem and the school song while in “RS” formation. Not only did they score highly as a whole, but as individuals the members achieved over one hundred superior first division ratings from the U.I.L. Solo and Ensemble Competition. The Honors Band was the second band in the history of Ross S. Sterling to earn a Sweepstakes Trophy at the U.I.L. Concert and Sight Competition. In both areas, they received first division. The Symphonic Band achieved a second division in concert and a first division in sightreading.

We were anticipating a First Division rating and hoping for an Outstanding rating. On Saturday, everyone did his best to help achieve what we had hoped for. commented Mike Morlan. On Friday. May 16. the Orchestra traveled to the Forum, a shopping center in Dallas. While there, members went shopping, to the movies, and ice skating. The trip ended with a visit to Six Flags. As competitions and concerts were held, both Sterling and Lee Orchestras were combined into one. Parent's Night, held on October 16. had members performing in the commons area. Such tunes as The Great Fugue and Three Crowd Preludes were played for the enjoyment of parents and teachers. Region Orchestra tryouts were held in November with Mike Morlan and David Milligan receiving places in the first and second violin sections. After much hard work and continuous practicing, they participated in the Region Orchestra Concert held in late November. On February 23. a Solo and Ensemble Contest was held at Clear Creek High School. Those receiving First Division ratings were David Milligan. Mike Morlan, Mark Warren. Mary Luallin, Sharon Whitehead.

Badge� P Trouhardt Artwork by MttUtM Organizations 16 : H CO 'tH Trips Two days from school! It will be great! With thoughts like these, each organization packed bags, loaded buses, and started out on their trips. It was a chance to get away from the grind of school, but these jaunts were more than a reprieve from the merciless monotony of class work. Band, choir, and orchestra students descended on McAllen High School, Trinity University, and Sandy Lake Amusement Park respectively, looking for fun and excitement, but these were also used as testing grounds. The hours spent on a piece of music until the strings wore out, the days marching from 3:15 to 5:00, the music sung until it was per- fect ... all led to a few hours of music, but it proved to be worthwhile. The orchestra brought home the Outstanding Orchestra Trophy, the choir sang beautifully, and the band returned from Padre Island with a second division. The sunny climates were not limited to the band. ROTC members journeyed to San Diego, California during the spring holiday, but their trip was not a competition. They were taught about different aspects of defense. They hurled grenades, tackled barbed wire fences, infiltrated mock enemy lines, conquered Disneyland, and braved the caged ani- mals at the San Diego Zoo. This gave ROTC a prac- tical example of military life. Whereas the ROTC was learning how to wield weapons, the Governor and Sentinel staffs sojourned to the ILPC conference at the University of Texas to learn how to wield words, croppers, tearsheets, and cutlines. The two staffs attended seminars about every aspect of yearbook or news- papers. Two nights later they came home, exhausted from trapsing around UT and brimming with ideas for their publications. The Sterling Stars had a wider area to explore than the Governor and Sentinel staffs when they went to New Orleans. The Stars performed in the Mardi Gras Parade. In their spare time they toured the French Quarter and rode on the riverboat. Nat- chez, gaining a taste of the Old South. The Honor Society's trip was comparatively shorter than any other organizations' as they only bicycled to the San Jacinto Monument. The top scholars set out to have one last meeting, but instead of selling programs and financing scholar- ships, the topic of this meeting was fun. A picnic and marathon volleyball tournament combined to set the mood for the summer vacation ahead. When the trips drew to a close, students had acquired more than an escape from school... fun!

Organizations The Meistersingers traveled to Trinity University in San Antonio for a Madrigal Festival. However, the choir did not choose to enter for a rating, but for the critique from Dr. Morris Beachy. the head of the Choral Department at the University of Texas During their leisure time of the three day trip, the group went on the Riverwalk. rode paddleboats. toured the Natural Bridge Caverns, and ate at the Magic Time Machine. We were told that San Antonio was a romantic town, but it was forty degrees and raining. How about that for love? remarked Mrs. Xina Stone. The students in the choral program sold Christmas candles to finance activities. The money went for choir sweaters, shirts, and to help support the trip When the Christmas holidays arrived, the choir sang for the Christian Women's Style Show, junior schools, and several times at St James House The Sterling Choir can never sing enough times at our home They always bring fresh smiling faces. commented Mrs. Alexander, a resident at St. James House.

At all home games, members not involved in football. Stars, or Band were required to meet at Stallworth stadium at 5:45 to sell programs. The candle ceremony held on October 18 installed the newly chosen members for the year. The new officers presented speeches on leadership, character, and scholarship. The National Honor Society sponsored the Honor's Banquet held on May 9, where Miss Clydette Messiah, sponsor, was made an honorary member of the society. Ending the busy year, members bicycled from school to the San Jacinto Monument for a picnic. However, some of the lazier members met them there to play volleyball, football, and baseball as well as tour the Battleship. Cheerleaders kOr$antzatloni5 Senior cheerleader� .

At summer camp in August the squad returned successful from Sam Houston State with a Super Squad award and all blue ribbons of superiority, a feat not matched in over five years. On August 2. the squad had the thrill of cheering for the Houston Oilers in the Astrodome. The Pigskin Preview opened the football season with the squad performing a dance routine to We Are Family. Four new freshmen were added to the group in September. bringing more after school workouts. Ribbon selling and pep rallies filled the fall days with excitement. All Sterling games had cheerleaders chanting the way to victory. The new mini-trampoline added a new thrill to the cheerleading sideline activities. Basketball brought night-time activities and many away games late at night. Lockers were decorated, and parties for all winter and spring sports teams was the main thrust. Posters were made on a weekly basis to decorate the commons. A special event for the cheerleaders was the banquet held on April 24 at Wyatt's Cafeteria. Entertainment for the banquet was taking a look backward at the year's accomplishments, and awards were given to the seniors. Rangers want a victory! Hey, hey! Organizations 177 Drill Instructor J.

The ROTC unit reported to the Regimental Training Site at Camp Pendleton. California, on March 31 Highlights included both an infiltration and hand grenade course. The infiltration course was the best It was dirty with loud noises, and we had to crawl on our backs under barbed wire. I loved it, commented Cadet Lt. Jackie Marsh The cadets observed the display of mines and booby traps, were familiarized with the firing of M-16 rifles, and witnessed a night defensive fires demonstration using tracer rounds During their leisure time, the unit visited the San Diego Zoo, toured the LPH USS Tripoli aircraft carrier at Naval Station San Diego, and spent a full day at Disneyland. I always wanted to see Disneyland! exclaimed Becky Mesa It was fabulous! To add to their excitement, the unit traveled along the San Diego Harbor aboard a commercial excursion vessel. As the trip came to a close, one of the last honorable events was witnessing a Recruit Graduation Ceremony at the Depot Theater After their return, it was a mere seven days before Lt. General A.

It seems like all the Anchor club thinks about is giving food away for a worthy cause or helping another club with a dinner. They made both a Thanksgiving and Christmas bas- ket. and gave them to a needy family. Helping the AM Pilot Club with their smorgasbord and decorat- ing and serving at a Spaghetti Dinner for the Noon Pilot Club were other worthwhile services. Taking food and Christmas stockings to the Day-Care Cen- ter on Neal Street and visiting Allenbrook Nursing Home on Valentine's Day extended their service record even more. They also gave Halloween masks and other gifts to some children at Gulf Coast Hospi- tal. Members also donated trees to Chinquapin School, a weedeater to Baytown Opportunity Cen- ter. and a calculator to the Cerebral Palsy Center. In school, also, members greatly contributed their time and efforts while decorating varsity volleyball lockers and making posters for the football team. This group also acted as timers for the Lee-Sterling swim meet on Valentine's Day. As a monthly assign- ment. girls decorated the showcase in the English hall. Members sold candy in late November to December to support their many service activities. Displaying a Christmas present from Anchor Club members is sponsor. Mrs. Dotty Leezer.

If asking a Junior Rotary Ann member, she would say. •'yes.” During the football season, the club filled orders for boutonnieres and lit- tle sister mums for the Homecoming Dance and game Also, the football season gave the girls a chance to have a hotdog party and decorate the boys' lockers during J.R.A. week Not long after, members put togehter a Thanksgiving and Christmas Basket for a needy family. For Valen- tine's Day. members made wooden hearts as an annual teacher project. As a last project, the J.R.A. s made an Easter Basket for another needy family.

Well, the brother-sister clubs, Octagon and Jr. Optimisses, work together at many worthwhile services. These clubs provided mascots for all of the pep rallies and football games through the hard work of Tina Marsh, Bobareba. and Byron Pepper, Ranger The clubs also made run-through posters for the football games, and spirit posters for the commons to promote school spirit. School services include preparing and serving refresh- ments at Parents' Night, building the homecoming bonfire, working in the concession stands, painting school facilities, and setting up equip- ment for pep rallies. They were also involved in many community ser- vices through the help of the Evening Optimists The year was completed with a banquet at Wyatt's Cafeteria where scholarship winners, officers, and special award winners were hon- ored.

Such was the task of the Key club who spent a whole Saturday doing it. Along with this, members also gave four Christmas and Thanksgiving baskets to needy families, picked up garbage on Baker Road, and officiated for the Highlands Sports Association basket- ball program, which lasted six weekends They spread sand at St. James House in order to level the yard, helped build the bonfire, helped the booster club by selling stadium cushions at the football games, and also took part in a basketball and softball tournament in which they received second place in both. Eighteen members attended a convention at the Astroworld complex in Houston for three days. During this the members attended workshops, training ses- sions. and heard some inspirational speeches.

That seemed to be the mutual response of the new Keywanettes as they were picked up at 5:00 a.m. to have their initiation breakfast at Barbara Fridley's house. All we could do was wake them up and feed them. That takes all the fun out of it and it doesn’t quite seem fair when you consider what we went through,” commented Sherri Canon over the change in policy. The veteran members soon recovered from their disappointment and joined successfully with the new members to make for a very busy year Football season kept the Keywanettes on their toes. Between decorating lockers, making messages and signs for players' yards, and posters for games, the Key- wanettes were a veritable hive of activity, but they man- aged to squeeze in enough time for their chief money- making project, selling mums for Homecoming. This required real devotion as they had to stay up all night Thursday in order to finish in time for distribution the next day. Their industrious spirit was not limited only to football season. When Thanksgiving rolled around, they col- lected canned goods and gave a food basket to a needy family. During Christmas they alternated between serving refreshments to teachers and stuffing bags of toys for the Goodfellows Among their other activities were a car wash and cake sale to benefit the Ronald McDonald House as well as furnishing sandwiches and cookies for the UIL Contest. The highlight of the year, however, was the banquet held with their counterpart, the Key club. April 28th. Obviously unaware of the photographer.

This is eviden- ced by the four homes which the club roofed in Chapperal Village It seems that the members tried their hands at every aspect of construction In addition to roof- ing, they armed themselves with dropcloths and paint brushes to put the finishing touches on six homes In fact, their training was so diversified that they even helped in the completion of two houses from struc- tural to electrical work The only break that the club members had in their busy sched- ule was their annual barbeque Top to bottom, first row: Mr Sharp (sponsor) Troy Rodgers.

When are we ever going to get off our rockers?” That question must have been asked over and over by the students participating in the VOE-OEA Rock-a- Thon held to benefit the Special Olympics. Regiona Wells, enduring twenty hours of monotonous bobbing, stated. It was a long time to be rocking back and forth in a chair I was very tired, but it was for a worthy cause. Among the many community-oriented activities they participated in were stuffing tax forms in envelopes at the tax office and working in several refreshment stands during the welding contest at Stuart Career Center and at Lee College During the Thanksgiving and Christmas seasons, food baskets for the needy were filled and distributed They also attended a state OEA youth leadership conference in Dallas on March 20-22 Vocational Clubs 199 K SUM O Norman Money Making Projects Boy, this sure is a waste of time lug- ging this stupid bag around. Does this sound familiar? It is the usual complaint voiced by club members who sell those chocolate goodies that we find ourselves constantly indulging in. The demand lor more money to spend on various activities for clubs requires the members to give an amount of time to seeing profit-making items, such as candy, pennants and mums. Trips, con- ventions, and many other activities were rewarded to the students who played the part of the salesman in their classes. Clubs earn thousands of dollars by selling calendars, popcorn, magazines, candles, and anything else that might bring in extra money. The burden that was levied on club members to tote those bags of goodies, soliciting sales in the hallways and classes, seemed well worth the effort to seniors who wanted to keep studying French in college, because they were on the receiving end of a French Club scholarship. A temporary bakery was set up at Sterling for the FTA mem- bers to sell cookies and cakes to help pay for their convention in Houston. The Spanish Club and Deutscher Verein also used their candy sales money as a means for paying their way to conven- tion. During football season, the Keywan- ettes and J.R.A.'s sold their traditional Homecoming mums and boutonnieres for their projects.

This may have raised a few eyebrows when Distributive Education students told their teachers that they needed to leave class fourth period April 18th. It was the truth, however, as Distributive Education students were attending the annual employer-employee banquet They all assembled in the Country Club with thoughts like. You mean I have to sit with him?” or What can I say to her for a whole hour? The most I ever say is hello. Once the banquet got started, though, the students discovered that they could exchange anecdotes with their employers over lunch. Each employer was presented with a certificate of appreciation. Special awards were given to Juan Garcia. Robyn Montgomery. Cheryl Codrington. and Sharon Soileau. They were the top salesmen in the club's major project, which was selling ads for the Governor.

Well, not where the Future Farmers of Amer- ica were concerned. It's part of the annual ritual of initiating new members This opened the year for a series of contests, conventions, and livestock shows. It turned out to be a very impressive year for the Future Farmers as they collected award after award. Some of these included: the District FFA Sweepstakes Banner at the Leadership Contest, the BOAC award, the Star Greenhand award which was given to Dee Harlin. the Dekalb award which was awarded to Terry Parrish, and the Star Chapter Farmer award which was given to Kelly Kimmey at the banquet. In addition to this, the chapter became sausage and magazine salesmen to finance their trip to the state convention in Houston, where eleven students won the highest degree on the state level, the Lone Star Farmer's Degree All of their accomplishments were recognized at the Parent-Member banquet which was held in the cafeteria.

Although some seniors plan to attend only Lee College, others plan to use it as a stepping stone to post-graduate level. Mrs Gertrude Teter, counselor at Lee College, said, We have nothing but good reports from students who use this school as a foundation for their college careers They are very well prepared for college work and have more time for other situations facing them for the first time Some seniors already feel pride in their future alma maters as seen by their wearing of tee shirts representing their favorite school Fields of study at the colleges in the area reveal a limitless choice of careers, and seniors can certainly find the program best suited for their career plans close to home.

The Senior Hall decorations, including music, launched the Class of '80 into a frenzy before the pep rally. The yells, chants, and songs proved to all that they had the true Ranger Pride. remarked Mark Martin, cheerleader sponsor. The seniors went on to capture the Spirit Stick in the overall com- petition. When it came time to retire this honor, the spirit stick was nowhere to be found. Music, courtesy of Gary Souther, made the spirit rise as the final touches were put on lockers before school Looking down the hall, one could not help but notice the plastic garbage bags with legs and the paper sacks on the seniors' heads. This was all part of the theme Sack the Ganders. As the crowd was dismissed, the seniors became a bit nostalgic; their final high school football pep rally was over The mass of sen- iors in the bleachers reflected as the words to The Night We Drove Old Dixie Down echoed in the almost empty gym. After several choruses, the trash bag clad class slowly made its way into the commons to continue their own pep rally.

Sounds like a fairly large sum of money to shell out for a high school ring, doesn't it? However, when juniors were In the market for rings, it did not take a second thought whether or not to buy one. This money is no object feeling was no surprise to those involved, considering the investment. Whether one looked up with envy, back with memories, or at his own ring with pride, all agreed that it was more than just a piece of jewelry. It was a symbol. It was a symbol of accomplish- ment. After eleven years of struggle, juniors finally had something to show for the pain. People took advantage of the opportunity to show them. For instance, when a junior crossed his hands, the new. polished ring always seemed to end upon the top hand. 242 Juniors Kathy McDonald and Laura Cody exerciaa the tradition of turning rings as they add to Melanie Moore's number of turns Some people prefer to order their rings from a jeweler, but most rely on the 8alfour Company.

One choice is being a student assistant. Assistant principal in charge of choosing student assistants. Mrs. Phyllis Dean, com- mented, A lot of work is done by students. This course is very benefi- cial to the student in that he can work on his own and learn responsi- bility. This, though, is not a play around1 class. One may work in such places as the library, one of the various offices, or in the classroom. In the main office, three and four students adjust to the hustle bustle of everyday work each period. Phones are answered, papers are stapled together, and each student has his share of errands to run. Deanna Buchanan said. I like this work because it enables you to be your- self . In the attendance office, how- ever. Jeffrey Reeder commented. It's fun and a new experience! I pick up attendance cards, write down who's absent, and code them I also run errands for Mrs. Nancy Walsh While life in the office is quite busy, duties are handled very differ- ently in the classroom. Here, stu- dents usually do research in the library, make posters for the class- room. or mix chemicals for an expe- riment. Lynda Hall, student assistant for English teacher Ms Dotty Leezer. said. “I like it a lot. but it's a lot of hard work! Ms. Dotty Leezer stated. She does so much work for me that she is actually my Girl Fri- day'!” A student assistant may receive up to three credits a year Many stu- dents take advantage of this course.

This was especially true for the Juniors who were lucky enough to have obtained the most crowded of the locker halls, not to mention the most obscurely placed and most out of the way for conven- ience' sake. An innocent bystander might have witnessed any one of several events taking place in the hall of the Mighty Juniors. For example, students pushed and shoved in vain attempts to reach between bodies for his locker door while stepping on some- one else's toes. Others carelessly throw books and scatter papers across the floor in a desperate attempt to return to class before the bell. And yes. there are those very few who have the ability and time to congregate into groups for a short chat before returning to their next class.

With crazy ideas about clothes and accesso- ries, this part of their individuality, spirit, consisted of ways to be different from any other class. Junior guys sported sport coats complete with blue jeans and tennis shoes on Thursdays and army pants on Fridays. Striving for more than just plain difference. Junior girls discovered a new idea that really caught their eyes — sunglasses, complete with tags. These green shades were worn on Thursdays and Fridays during football season. Nelda Yaw acquired these glasses from a neighbor who had discarded them. She felt they were original and distinguished the Juniors from all other classes. Signs made from meat wrapping paper were dis- played with such sayings as Jivin' Juniors Back the Rangers and Juniors Are Jovial. Locker halls were decorated during Lee Week to express spirit and encourage the Rangers. The Junior hall on Thursday received a total score of 84 points, bring- ing them second place honors for their inventive- ness. As was evident, the Jivin' Juniors, in keeping with their individuality, always found the means to be the innovators of a major part of school spirit.

Her- schal Vinyard. whose locker was decorated for track, said. 'I knew about it. but I was still sur- prised They continually have various names written in them. Several were almost completely covered with signatures. I have names written in my locker to brighten it up and to show whom I have liked.” commented Cynthia Liles. Usually students were not satisfied with the locker they were assigned. If they had a top locker, they wanted one on bottom, and vice versa Probably others felt the same way about lockers as Mark Mitchell. He said. I'm about ten feet tall and need a top locker. I hate getting on my knees just for books '' Have you found a rat in your locker? After class I opened my locker and there it was!” said Laura Bevel. A friend had placed a live rat in her locker as a surprise. It was found in a survey of over 250 students that around 150 do not share a locker ”1 like my privacy” was Eric Eike's comment.

Thursday November 15, the day before we played Lee, was the first time this had ever been done during actual school hours. Both teachers and students were shocked when they were dismissed thirty-five minutes early from sixth period to participate in the pep rally. While the students watched the football players practice for THE Game.” the band played such tunes as The Night We Drove Ole Dixie Down. and We Are Family. Mr. Wachtel commented.

About half of the student body leaves campus during lunch, according to a February survey Having closed campus means changing the present three lunches to an overlapping system of five or six lunches. An increase in the number of cafeteria workers and duty teachers would be needed. “If the school was a closed campus, all the people who do go out to eat would stay in the cafete- ria. commented Doug Gott. The caf- eteria is already too crowded, espe- cially the lunch lines. Other problems associated with a closed campus would be an increase in smoking on campus as well as an increase in the number of discipline problems during lunch. The benefits of a closed campus would be a reduction in the opportunity for students to obtain drugs and alco- hol as well as help parents know where students are during lunch hour. I would prefer to keep an open campus because the vast majority of students are responsible enough to handle the open campus. commented Mr. Wachtel. We need to realize, how- ever. that many students are not this responsible; therefore, these few affect the final decision on policies like this.

It’s the second week of school, and you only know three people. What will you do.. what will you do? Howdy! The student council sponsored the Howdy Dance for the freshman class on September 15. Amy Walker, student council reporter, stated. The reason for the dance was to get the freshman class acquainted with the upperclassmen as well as each other. Since the freshmen were the honored guests, they were admitted for half price — one dollar. The dance was held in the com- mons with bales of hay scattered to give a country flavor. It was a blast. exclaimed Betty Holub. I met a whole bunch of new people. After the proposal of the dance by spon- sor Terry Ryals. the student council engaged the assistance of Gary Souther as disc jockey. Because of the good response from the students, it was decided to make the Howdy Dance an annual event.

Is it my clothes? Is it my face? These are just a few of the many questions running through the minds of freshmen as they walked through those big doors of high school for the first time. Suddenly you were alone you had lost the security of junior high Your top of the hill status no longer mattered No one cared if you were an Eagle. Bear. Green Goslin. or Red Goslin The dis- tinct rivalry between junior highs somehow seemed unimportant, almost non-existent. I was scared even though my big brother was here. said Gene Craig. Fear of the unknown Paranoia is very normal among freshmen To ask directions was to put your life in your own hands You might as well have headed for Africa, because if you followed directions given by the average upperclassman, that was probably where you would end up. anyway Yeah, they were all looking at you You and 599 others.

During foot- ball season, practice for the football players and Stars was a daily event — rain or shine When the weather was bad. training was simply moved into the commons. This small area had to compensate for the natural surroundings of the practice fields. The Stars had to patiently wait for the use of the commons until the football teams were finished. During training in the commons there was no con- tact. and no individuals emphasized Practice was mainly focused on specialty work, reported Roger Adams, freshman football coach The use of the commons and halls extended also to track, base- ball. cross country, and twirlers. 272 Freshmen Spirit — Freshman Style Finally daring to open their mouths, the fresh- men walked away with the spirit stick for the first time at the Forest Brook pep rally _________________ G N yman .. Fight, Freshmen. Fight. Small spurts of the Fight cheer came from the few freshmen who dared to open their mouths at the first pep rally of the season. The expression of this spirit took as much time to learn as the names of teachers, the way to classrooms, and the various locations of the restrooms. Not yet knowing when to yell or when to sing the school song, they sat quietly, trying not .to look so much like freshmen. They were followers, waiting for cues from upperclassmen. Terrified of humiliation, they dared not challenge the mighty seniors in spirit competition. Somehow, the week of the Forest Brook game, they found the courage to challenge not only the seniors, but the juniors and sophomores as well. They took the chance and won, walking away with the spirit stick for that week. The task they had undertaken ... showing the upperclassmen that freshmen might be new. but they were still to be reckoned with . . began in ear- nest during Lee Week. Not knowing really where to start, freshmen piled into their assigned hall at 6:45 a.m., bringing balloons, streamers, and signs by the dozens. Although we were new at this, we gave it our best try, and everyone was enthusiastic about it anyway, remarked Diane Fridley. In spite of their efforts, the unfinished freshman hall only scored 42 points, but they had sparked the flame of spirit by setting the pace for this annual week-long ritual. G Ncfmtn New at the game. Diane Fridley. Jeanna Carr, and Candy Mengo put up a good fight'' during Lee Week competition. Candy, with her hunting clothes, tries to spur spirit in the freshman hall Amateurs at the art of showing spirit, this group of Star Reserves, notably Kim Cowley remarks. To be a freshman in Reservos is very exciting Sitting in a group and cheering the Rangers on is a lot of fun.

If you didn’t love the challenge of being a high school principal, there is no way you could survive emotionally, mentally, or physi- cally. expressed Ed Wachtel. With a school the size of ours, there are many administrative responsibilities. Our assistant principals take care of the duties that the principal. Ed Wachtel. has no time to assume. Marcellus Harmon, the senior's assistant principal, works with the faculty checking out books, supplies, and equipment. He also heads the safety program, which includes fire and emergency drills. Working with the fresh- man class is her major duty, but Phyllis Dean must also find time to arrange the school s calen- dar She supervises the scheduling of activities and grade reporting. The sophomore class is under the charge of Frank Hutchins. He is responsible for the building and grounds Clean- ing the grounds of the mess created by people who throw their trash in the parking lot takes up much of the time spent on the outside of the building General attendance procedures is another job tackled by Mr Hutchins. Next door to Mr. Hutchin's office is that of the junior's assist- ant principal. Jackie Crawford. He coordinates the general supervision and discipline of the stu- dent body. The people who want to work at get- ting an education are the ones to whom I am responsible. Rules are a necessary evil in a school with an enrollment of 2200+.

The general feeling expressed by faculty parallels to that of Mrs. Suzi Powers. ' Building high school memories is much like concocting a delicious, fattening ice cream sundae. Certainly, you've got to have the base — chocolate, vanilla, and strawberry ice cream (or the basic academic subjects — which are sometimes pal- atable). But it is that fudgy, chocolate sauce (dress rehearsals for plays), smooth butterscotch (marching contests or trips to New Orleans), piquant pineapple sauce (Youth Fair and athletic events), plus ail the extra garnishes (like the whipped cream of friendship) and the graduation cherry on the top that make your high school days delicious to savor and to remember. ” At the Punch the Ganders pep rally, Mark Martin, W C Smith.

Keeping everybody on the right track is accomplished with computer scheduling. Mrs. Beverly Wilson handles all phases of computer scheduling and grade reporting. She works with the counselors, insuring all students receive needed or wanted courses. Mr H. H. Nitschmann. freshman counselor, helped them plan their four year program. Freshmen are like a fresh loaf of bread, soft and fresh. You get their dreams and they change their minds four or five times. They don’t know what they are going to do. Sophomores, assigned to Mrs. Robbie Dixon, are allowed to schedule challenging courses which will help them in making graduation plans. Sophomores are more responsible now than they were as freshmen. I guess it comes from knowing what high school is like. They take the responsibility for their actions and don’t blame the teacher as much. I noticed a difference in attitude over the summer that was dra- matic.” Seaborn Cravey was concerned with the individ- ual. educational and vocational goals of the juniors. Miss Betty Jo White helped seniors with the problems of grad- uation. She finished a job she started in 1977. ’’They have changed over the four years. They're good kids. 280 Miss Betty Jo White informs Alex Fletcher of the credit requirements for Texas A M Faculty Freshman counselor H H Nitschmann checks schedules to assure all freshmen are m the proper required courses Toward the end of the year.

Designed by our Taylor Publishing Co representative Robin King, our cover was a blue shoe grain with the new skyline of our school blind embossed in the upper right-hand corner and overtoned with black. This etching was repeated on the dust jacket above the four-color picture of the student body. 1450 copies were printed for circulation with each copy containing 352 pages. The copy, captions, head- lines were printed in Helvetica Standard with body copy in 10 pt. excluding the opening and closing sections where the copy was in 12 pt. for greater emphasis The staff would like to extend a special thanks to the following people who came through for us when we needed their help: Mr Jim Boone for taking the group and individual pictures; Michael Elder Studios for our Governor-First Lady pictures, Mrs. Marybeth Holt and her D.E. students for selling the ads that made the quality of book we are accustomed to possible; Mrs. Sherry Evard and her typing classes for their work on the senior cred- its; Mr. Trahan for his help with our photography cabinet; Mr. Leslie Adams for the hours he spent constructing our shelves; Life and Time magazines helped us out with efforts to capture the decade in pictures, and lastly the faculty, who understood each day when their box revealed another form from us to be filled out and returned in thirty minutes. 326 Adveflrsements Senior Credits Abbott, Marilyn Sentinel Staff 12 Circulation Manager Art Club 9.10.11.12 President Actio, Berthelina V.O.C.C T 11.12 Reporter Adama, Meliaa Kay Stars 9, 10.11 Lioness 9.10 Chaplain 10 Who's Who Among American High School Students 12 Adams, Steven Drew Future Farmers of America 9.10.11 Chapter Farmer VIC A 12 Studying Mechanic Adlong, Carol Lynn Stars 9,10.11,12 Captain J R A 10.11.12 German 10.11 Who's Who Among American High School Students 11 Alford.

But with the tragic deaths of four students, we were awakened to the fragile reality of life. A motorcycle accident claimed the life of fifteen-year-old Tim Macha on December 1. Tim played the electic guitar in his band Macha Inc and his interest in electronics aided him in his job at his parent s store. Tim had many friends, but there were only a few who knew him really well On December 16 Steven Alpha was involved in a jeep acci- dent on his hunting lease which cost him his life. An active athlete. Steven was an outstanding pitcher for the sopho- more baseball team and a member of the sophomore bas- ketball team. His many friends knew him as a guy with a uni- que personality that made everybody laugh Over the Christmas holidays we suffered yet another loss. Junior Jana Cosio was killed when the car she was riding in slid on an icy Borger road and collided with a telephone pole. As a student. Jana was a dedicated cross-country run- ner. a member of the Junior Rotary Anns, and a previous Sentinel staffer Her sparkling personality and winning smile enabled her to be a good listener as well as friend to many. Still in shock from the deaths of three students in one month, the student body was sickened by the loss of sopho- more Susan Brewer. On January 26 her life was cut short by a head-on collision with another automobile Involved in school and life to the fullest. Susan participated in numer- ous activities and organizations. She served as an athletic trainer since her freshman year and played a flute in the Honors band. Susan's interest in both sports and school led her to become a member of the Governor staff. Although busy with life. Susan always had time to smile and help oth- ers with their problems. The strength she found in her church radiated to all who knew her Only three months later another accident curtailed the life of a Sterling student. Enjoying an outing with his friends, junior Troy Rodgers drowned in Highlands Reservoir the week of May fifth Even though he was not involved in the school's extra-curricular activities, he was successful in his academic subjects and enjoyed horseback riding. The deaths of these special people serve to remind us that life is short and that friends are a much cherished pos- session. Being young we rarely think ourselves vulnerable to such a tragedy, but this turned our thoughts inward as we consider the present. It is regrettable that such a sacrifice had to be made to open our eyes. 343 9 Before taking that long drive into Houston for dinner and the prom, Bob Wotring.

SOON THE STRANGERS BECOME PART OF THE WOODWORK Banging our lockers in our hurry to beat the tardy bell to second period, we were too busy in our own world to notice the intruders who had climbed off their dumptrucks and entered our halls, seemingly unaware of our adolescent environment. While sitting in the cafeteria amid the lime-green trays, the only detail that distinguished these workmen from us was their yellow hard hats and their freedom to enjoy lunch right through the tardy bell to fourth period. Such was not the story five months earlier as these craftsmen were looked upon as invaders of our little world. We thought this feeling justified when they were sitting at our table on the patio during lunch and disturbing our algebra test with their incessant pounding and drilling. Only after their handiwork grew to create our new skyline did we accept them. From our first episode in freshman physical science lab to our feelings of hopelessness in senior English, we developed a sense of loyalty to those thrust into the same situation. There also existed a rivalry of those outsiders who entered into our world not mindful of our dilemmas, yet reaping the same benefits. Living every day with the workmen in our midst taught us to understand the difficulties of the outsiders and how to react when we were intruding others' environment. For the first time in years, the district track meet was moved from Baytown's Memorial Stadium to Aldine. These unfamiliar surroundings did little to deter the varsity track team as three members qualified for regionals. Closing 345 THE CEMENT RAINS ON OUR DREAM Just as we began to imagine the leisurely life of having a swimming pool practically in our backyard, a midnight swim, a few dirty bricks, and a bag of cement clouded our dream. We sat in our classroom looking from desk to desk trying to pin a face with the horrible crime. As the days passed, the water was cleaned and our pool looked less like a victim of vandalism. The setback was only a few bricks and some wet cement and not the tremendous cracks and vast destruction we had imagined. We forgot about the midnight in mid-March and started thinking about first period tomorrow when our term paper was due. Everyday in some classroom, gym, or practice field there was a dream crushed by the stark reality of defeat. But once the day of doom had passed, we realized the insignificance of one day's performance compared with our lifetime of experiences yet to come. The day the girls’ tennis team lost the district championship by one game seemed the end of the world for those eight girls, but the season was not ended with one match as the girls returned from the district tournament with two spots in regionals. That one week in American history when the counselor had called you down to the office right in the middle of the Depression and you had flunked the test was soon forgotten when hard work and continued effort brought that F up to a B No matter what the loss, our struggle continued toward the anticipated graduation and ultimately that step outside from the carefree days of class to life in the jungle. Although locked up to prevent further vandalism, a clever photographer manages to capture a pic- ture of the new swimming pool in all its magnifi- cence Dunng the zany days of Ranger Week, junior Donya Young displays the first place ribbon that she won for her imagination and courage to wear her Good Fairy outfit from the Star Galaxy production 346 Closing Even though exams are three weeks away.

While the days of school dwindle, most thoughts drift outside into the sunshine. Unfortunately the only time that students have in the sun is the short thirty minutes that is allotted for lunch.

We prefer to blame this deterioration on the heat of our intense brain activity, but the real vandal that robbed us of half of our brass letters on the front of the school was the fifteen years of Baytown weather. With the addition to the school it was only appropriate that we get a new name for our new face. Watching the progress of the new letters each day as we headed out of the parking lot. we developed our own ideas for the finished product. Although no blue tile was added and the letters were not painted grey as we suggested, we were still aware that we had a new name to live up to. In 1972 we saw the Ranger football team compete with Odessa Permian for the 4-A state championship. Even though they lost, they sparked our reputation as a football school. This distinction had worn with age and we found it necessary to explore other areas to supplement our fame. For the first time, we sent two competitors to the state literary meet. Our still-young water-polo team placed a remarkable eighth among the twelve teams at the state meet in San Antonio. Reading between the lines, the student body dis- covers that although not yet conspicuous, the school has a bigger name to go with the recent addition. In a moving memorial to those students who lost their lives this year.

Closing 3t The view from the inside was restricted to painted concrete, papered sheetrock and glimpses of the outside world shining through the plexi-glass doors. For eight months one of our windows on the world was boarded up to hide the extensive metamorphosis above the history wing. On April 11 th the brilliancy of the globe was revealed as the plywood boards were taken down. Illuminated by the sunshine were the particles of dust that filtered through our air. This dust was our problems and the troubles of our growing nation. On the eleventh our nation was in the 160th day of being held hostage by Iranian militants in the U S. Embassy. The fire was not yet cool over the boycott of the summer Olympics in Moscow because of Soviet intervention in Afghanistan. Only months earlier the price of gasoline had hit a dollar a gallon, and the interest rates became higher than ever before. We were a nation campaigning for primaries and protesting women in the draft. As we walked through these glass doors, we saw the world differently than the textbook. It had stopped being our parent’s nation; it had become part of our game called survival. We were no longer hidden away in an elementary classroom; we stepped out into a world all our own. An early morning surprise brings Mrs. Suzi Powers' enriched senior English class to Bayland Park to write a paper on pollution while surrounded by nature.

Do you know where the Governor staff is? The yearbook room is open with the normal flow of staffers rushing in and out of the room, clutching Roget's Thesaurus and dancing to the beat of Billy Joel's Glass Houses. An elated photogra- pher runs into the room yelling something about having only 300 more pictures to print before he can retire from his sauna, the dark- room.

At 2:05 the next shift of staffers arrive back from the beach bursting with ideas on spicing up the last two club pages or finishing the academic section. As the editors sit in the library classroom una- ware of the recent invasion, they are attacked by three eager bodies demanding a headline or else. These staff members remained at school unbound by rope or chain long after the most dedicated student had toted his folders home and all for the goal of a repeat of the First Divi- sion rating and the Medalist Certificate awarded to the 78-79 Governor. This Medalist Award was given to the Governor for its excel- lence, an honor bestowed on only those year- books in the top ten percent of the country. Closing At times during the construction we felt as if we were the targets of an elab- orate experiment to determine the lim- its and capabilities of fourteen to eighteen-year olds in a controlled environment. We learned to conjugate Latin verbs while the jackhammers pounded on the yet-to-be installed drainage system for the new swim- ming pool. Somewhere amidst the practices for UIL and those days that the entire his- tory wing sought refuge in the library from the falling sheetrock and noisy disruptions, we grew up. We had not thought that taking tests while the class next door sailed airplanes over the wall would make us patient or flex- ible. In a nation that was learning how to cope in the big time, we were a school learning to live with the little things. It added up to a whole lot more than just adding on. ADDING UP ADDING ON
