He always started the same; and though you’d heard it a thousand times, you always wanted to hear it again. “Ah, when I went to school, that takes me back to 1906 when the first Rustburg school was opened. We didn’t have all those fancy things you have now. We went toa simple four-room frame building sited where the old building stands now. It won’t nothing elaborate or exciting, but it was sturdy enough to hold all thirty pupils and of course the faculty. Seeing as the only faculty we had was the prin- cipal, Mr. C. W. Poole. Now the first graduating class was in 1910 with only seven people. And among the graduates of that class was Lewis Pick or better known as General Pick, chief of the Army Engineering Corps. He’s about the only real famous person ever graduated from Rustburg. But you better be getting on home now. No sense in getting your ma upset and worried about where you gone off to. You know you can always come back again. Bye for now.” The high school of 1910 was slightly more home-like than today’s. The student body of R.H.S. in 1910 consisted of only 30 students. It was all worthwhile The bell rings, and in an instant the halls are packed full of students. Pushing, shouting, shoving students. You wriggle your way through and now and then see a friend’s face peep up above the crowd so you wave and carry on. That’s how it was every day. Because the building of the new school was still in progress, 200 new students and 22 new teachers were housed in trailers and every available space. In spite of the jammed classes and cafeteria and all the small problems that seemed to arise throughout the year, we knew it was worth it. All the new faces and friends, the added efforts and enthusiasm, the everyday victories over those terrifically hard tests and knowing you survived through a vigorous pep rally or just a simple walk down the hall, added up to a great year that made us say, “It was all worthwhile! ” Tired from a late night basketball practice, Tim Smith finds himself having trouble keeping his eyes on his chemistry teacher. Devil Kim Honts looks on towards the game as Keith Dalton takes a breather. Opening 3 Everyone is dancing amid the lights and decorations. It looks great, but who worked so hard the morning before getting things just right? A fellow student gets an A on a paper. How long did it take to even think of a thesis? How many hours of work did it take? Many times a good thing is taken for gran- ted; it looks so easy. Well, it’s not such a breeze. The dances, carnival, ring dance, prom, and other occasions are planned weeks ahead of time. When you take a test or write a paper, you study and work hard. All the sports, such as football, basketball, track, and many 4 Opening look behind the acammae pw ee ry Cee Jeff Myers stares into spacey % others also take long hours of practice, lots of sweat and aching muscles. Even the teachers who seem to walk in class and hand out assignments right and left have homework of their own to do. Once you look behind the scenes, you realize that all the work, frustration, the agonizing workouts, and the mental strain are all centered towards that one goal. Finally when the dance is over, the game is won, and the paper is turned in, the work that was once so hard doesn’t matter much anymore because now you know it was all worthwhile.

Opening 5 6 Student Life Keeping spirit at a minimum, students reveal mixed emo- tions at an afternoon pep rally. Putting the toppings on his hot dog, Leevel Lewis seems to be oblivious to the events occurring in the cafeteria. “Rise and shine!” “Good grief, why does she have to say that every si ngle orning.” No one wants to get up at 6:00 a.m. in the morning, but omehow you do.

From the inside looking out, the new high school seems to be progressing. clear weather just when you were hoping for snow so you could get out of that analysis test. And so it goes, you laugh, work, talk, and rush your way through six classes just in time to change clothes and start practice. You finally get home around 6:00 p.m. and start on you homework. Was it really worth it to get up so early and go through all that? Yes, it was. Student Life 7 More than just fun in the sun While many students and teachers feel that summer is lazy sun-filled days, many are busy working or at some type of other activity. Some of the activities that stu- dents are involved in are Boy’s and Girl’s State, sponsored by the American Legion, Publications Workshops, and Leadership Ad- venture, which the Virginia YMCA sponsors. For those who indulge in recreational activities, there are cheerleading camps, and various sports clinics. Many students play on recreation teams; others have part-time jobs to earn a little pocket money. Whatever turns them on, students find time during those three glorious months to do it. Demonstrating some of the newly acquired abilities taught at Boy’s State, John Hirtz, Steve Hall, and Bo Tweedy seem to have learned the wild and crazy guy routine. Delegates to Girl’s State, Sally Johnson, Valerie Cun- ningham, and Karen Beale, share a few laughs about their experience. 8 Summer Looking over negatives at Longwood College, Terri Blankenship and Gaye Rafferty discover the facts of editoring a yearbook at Delmar’s workshop.

It’s the same every year. Everyone complains about having to get up so early, the homework, and the school food. But, deep down, nothing can beat that feeling of being with your friends again, or perhaps having a class with that special someone you've always admired. This year, not only did the freshmen enter the high school, but the eighth grade as well. With the renovating of the middle. school, the halls were even more crowded | with roughly 1,200 students in a | school designed for 900. It was_ pretty strange having the eighth grade around again, but after a while, the whole class made them- selves a part of the student body. The first few weeks of school same old grind? were unbearably hot with tem- peratures climbing into the high 90’s every day. Even the teachers decided to give the students a break because of the weather. Orientation assemblies were organized to give the newcomers a brief outlook on the many clubs and activities that the school had to offer. The SCA officers served as student guides, since all the classrooms had been switched With the addition of 250 more students, the halls are even niore crowded than before. around. Temporary trailers were on the front lawn to house the eighth graders, and all the num- bers on the outdoor buildings had been changed. This created confu- sion for not only the new students, but the old students and teachers as well. It was pretty hectic for the first two weeks. Caught in the act, Tony Perrow has returned for his senior year as the same old Casanova, to Susan Beasley's dismay. Concentrating on the outdoor scene Alan Woody and Eddie Roberts find different points of interest during lunch.

Can you believe that -you’re actually sending some of your students to Brookville Mid- dle? But only so that the long awaited school can be finished before the next decade. Oh Devil, remember the last time you lost a football game to Brookville way back in ’74. Long time ago, isn’t it! Things certainly have changed.

Feat 809 Soh RERE EELS 4 BERS BOP eR RS Firm foundation of memories I’ve stood here watching genera- tions of children pass through my doors and oh, the stories I could tell about those long lost days. Days when children either paid the fare to ride the rickety bus, or because they didn’t have the money, rode their horses, placing them in the barn behind the school. There were johnnies too, with at least six holes instead of just one. And on November days when the children would all come scamper- ing out for recess, they'd head for the honeysuckle trees. There they could find shelter from the wind to eat their lunches; many wrapping their food in newspaper because paper was scarce during the Depression. I was built in 1918; a six-room brick structure with an auditorium, library and principal’s office. When Still standing after fifty years, the old building which has housed generations and generations of students, is going to remain even after the new school is built. an addition was constructed in 1928, the auditorium and library became classrooms while the library and auditorium moved to the new building. Today I’m known as the old building and rightly so. But none shall ever know the number of children I’ve seen through the struggles of adulthood. Finding out that high school can be hectic, eighth grader Donald Dyke walks on the grass instead of the crowded sidewalk. Overlooking the new school, it seems it will be ready for next year.

The first things that needed to be decided were whether to return the traditional parade or to spon- sor a carnival and whether to have a band for the dance or a disco. The student opinion was so divided on both issues that a referendum was necessary to establish what the majority of the students wanted. After all the votes were tallied, it was obvious that the students wanted a carnival before the game and a disco for the dance. With cle ar goals now in mind the S.C.A. began forming committees, and all the other clubs and classes began planning what money- making activity they wanted to do for the carnival.

Homecoming 17 18 Homecoming A Homecoming to Remember Homerooms started the process of electing court representatives and soon each class had two representatives. The seniors had three candidates for both King and Queen. As the big day drew near, everyone became excited with an- ticipation. When the day finally arrived, enthusiasm and _ spirit were big words for the student body. That night the crowd could be heard chanting, “Stomp Altavista!”, and the team proceeded to do just that. With a halftime score of 28-0, the court representatives and their escorts were driven around the field in antique cars, courtesy of Lynchburg Antique Auto Club. The big moment came, Johnnie West and Anna Mason were crowned Homecoming King and Queen. The ceremony ended witha song from the band, and the team returned to finish off Altavista with a victory of 42-0. The next night boogie and fancy dress were displayed by all as everyone “got-down” to the sounds of Harriet Williams. The gym was decorated, and the strobe lights added to the atmosphere. With the last slow dance everyone headed home with many memories of Homecoming ’78. Portraying Death and the Hunchback of Notre Dam e, Deb- bie Rakes and Junior Saunders come to haunt Rustburg.

During a basketball pep rally, Bubba Rosser and Mark Ep- person entertain the student body by acting as cheerleaders. Expressing their enthusiasm, basketball cheerleaders, Kim Bennett, Jan May and Janet Eubank get students fired up for a victory. Spirit of the student body “You make us nervous sitting in your seats!” This phrase from a cheer probably intended exactly what it says. Pep rallies are events where students are expected to really get rowdy and yell. One of the most important factors in any team sport is the spirit and enthusiasm that is evident. Annual events such as the com- petition for the coveted spirit stick and the spirit chain sponsored by the 20 Pep Rallies NHS helped to give the students’ enthusiasm a boost. In efforts to add a little variety to the pep rallies, the cheerleaders from both squads racked their brains for ideas. Terrell May tamed the ferocious Lancer horse (alias Gary Rakes), and Reverend Steve Farmer dropped in to give an inspirational speech to the football team while the basketball cheerleaders performed as “Pink Panthers”. For the first time since pep rallies were founded, Mr. Pendleton and the faculty members decided to make them optional letting those students who would rather stay in class do so Yet through the sifting out of un- enthusiastic students and new ideas it was still the students’ support that kept the teams winning. Squatty-bodies, Mae Mitchell and Kim Bennett help amuse the student body along with Mark Epperson and Gary Rakes. Posing as an Amherst Lancer, Terrell May charges in on his horse, during a football pep rally.

This is true, but there’s more to it than that. Students come for more than just learning. Socializ- ing with old friends and meeting new ones plays a vital part in any school day. School actually starts at eight-thirty, but in order to visit with friends, students start arriv- ing as early as eight o’clock. They always seem to catch a few mo- ments between classes and after school. In addition to socializing, school provides a chance for students to enjoy themselves. Assemblies which are held every few months offer a stimulating break from classroom routine. Entertainment ranges from concerts to magic shows to magazine sales programs. Pep rallies provide just the right moment for spirit to be released as well as all that energy that builds up in the classroom. All these moments can never be recaptured, but are remembered as those times when it was all worthwhile. Taking advantage of a chance to get out of class, Kathy Dawson and Patty Dutka enjoy an afternoon assembly. While most students use the lbrary for studying or research, Ken Hargis seems content to just sit and watch others. 22 Moments The activities of a morning spirit circle have the complete attention of Lloyd Payne, but Tracey Pauley and Jeff Myers are concerned with other matters.

In efforts to urge RHS students into the Christmas mood, Lori Dixon and Ricky Jeffe rson sing out with the Age old feeling “You put your tree up yet?” “Sure, since Thanksgiving!” It is said as you get older, Christmas starts to become a routine, or even a task that families go through because it’s an old tradition. But if you look hard enough, you'll find that the Christmas spirit is still thriving. As one student said, “Christmas is what you want it to be, besides Christ’s birth, trees, and presents, it’s basically the intangible feeling that’s inside!” It was apparent that Rustburg students wanted Christmas to come. The Hi-Y donated a tree for the lobby, which the art students decorated using their talents, and put up a “Peace on Earth” banner 24 Christmas across the Guidance office doors. While many of us were giving gifts and making lists for Santa Claus, the drama club and chorus were busy with preparations for the annual Christmas assembly. Finally the last hour before vaca- tion all the students pushed and shoved into the gym until every inch of space was filled. Skits were performed and the band and chorus entertained with various selections of disco, jazzed up carols, and other traditional Christmas songs. The last bell rang out a Merry Christmas, and the halls were emptied quickly as stu- dents rushed home to complete last minute shopping and decorating. Awaiting its owner’s return this lone present conveys the special relationship that RHS students share not only at Christmas, but throughout the whole year. Not at all embarrassed to reveal her Christmas spirit, Anna Micheals works diligently on her Christmas tree. ee wien In preparation for the Christmas holidays, the Hi-Y and the Art classes got together to reform the lobby into a high school living room. Searching the audience for that one especially good stu- dent, Santa Claus, (alias Mr. Pendleton) seeks help from his elf Kathy Ballagh. Acting as head of the household, Mike Patterson slices the turkey for his daughter Karen Whitaker, in a mock Home Economics Christmas dinner. Christmas 25 ees g Winter was slow to arrive this - year as compared to last year with only light snow at first which usually melted the day it fell. But when it did come, it came with full force, closing school for five con- secutive days. Eight inches of snow piled up and refused to melt. This was still on the ground when ten additional inches fell. Students had a perfect oppor- tunity to get in some sleigh riding, skiing, and snowball fighting. Along with school closings, basket- ball games were postponed and repostponed. Teachers and stu - dents alike enjoyed the break from classes and routine, but somewhere the beauty of the snow was lost when simple travel became difficult. Ice storms also posed problems and left many people in our and surrounding areas without elec- tricity. Life as we know it came toa halt as lights, televisions and even water became unavailable. But in- evitably everything went back to normal and the somewhat hazardous holiday came to a halt. Wintry weather at last! While the trace of snow was not enough to close school, students find that it is enough to make walking to class hazardous. 26 Weather Students head toward their buses delighted by the season’s first snowfall. Due to continuous freezing weather, many area roads are in poor condition and are hazardous to drivers. Taking advantage of the warm weather, Amy Johnson and Wanda Lawhorne wear short sleeve shirts. Enjoying the warm weather before the Homecoming game, football players loosen up with conversation while Clark Jefferson focuses his attention elsewhere.

Shown by the reactions on Tony Perrow’s and Charles Jackson’s faces, lunch at Rustburg High is once again pon- dered by the question, “What is it?” awhile “What’s for lunch?” “The usual all-purpose meat patties.” “Sounds good doesn’t it?” Every year the same wise cracks are made about school lunch, but you still see the long line stretching into the hall waiting to buy lunch. Lunchtime serves a more impor- tant task than just feeding your- selves. It provides a place to relax and forget about assignments for thirty minutes and talk to your friends or listen to the latest jam on the jukebox provided by the .CAA; In the fall and spring, many stu- dents find the lawn a perfect site to talk about the last Saturday Night Live or perhaps the last game. But no matter what the subject is or what is served, lunch is the most welcome time during the day. tumbing through photographs of summer activities, Mr. Taking in the sights wandering around the cafeteria, ittycombe spends his lunchtime with some student Wellington Wheaton seems to have found something more ends. interesting than food. Lunch 29 ur unique style Khakis, collarless shirts, and pleated pants were on call at the opening of school. As everyone arrived, they began to exchange in- formation on everything from the newest movie to the best and craziest dance. The favorite movie of the stu- dents seemed to be “Animal House” starring everyone’s favorite star of “Saturday Night’, John Belushi. Along with the movies, most students were trying to get the hang of the “Freak”; the newest dance craze. Everyone dreamed of “freaking out”. Dancing, movies and clothes weren't the only things that went through trends. The language of the students varied from group to group, but these were several say- ings that seemed to be universal: Es mS “Your momma”, a carry over from last year, was still the best comeback to any cut and being “used” by anyone was the greatest humiliation ever. As winter rolled around the styles stayed basically the same with the addition of the “leather look”. Boots, vests, and blazers were all status symbols of many © proud owners. But the “freak” was no longer in, it now became the “rock” or the “spank”, a rhythmic rocking back and forth, which, ac- companied by the juke box, was demonstrated daily in the cafeteria by enthusiastic students. Major trends come and go everywhere, but we have our own different style that makes us uni- que. Always up with the latest hair styles Val Cunningham wears the popular long braids. In style, Steve Reynolds wears the popular collared shirt while John Hirtz dresses “pr eppy” wearing his neck tie underneath his sweater. Knotted scarfand cowl neck keep Felicia Terrell warm and also up with the latest fashions. Leather boots and dress are worn here by Gayle Fauber obviously concentrating on her classwork. Leather is always in style, and this year Aigner was a com- mon sight. A combination of a loose feathered shirt, clogs and the ever popular jeans keep Pam Scott comfortable and in style. Men aren't the only ones who wear neck ties anymore as Mae Mitchell displays here. The ribbon tie for girls was also a popular fad. Fads 31 What’s going “Look! It’s a bird, a plane ... no, it’s Superman!” Movie theaters boomed with business provided by many stu- dents who lined up at the entrance to see such smash hits as Animal House, Superman, and Up In Smoke. Other sources of entertainment for many people included the new television series Battlestar Galac- tica and Mork and Mindy starring Robin Williams. Soap, which had a very successful season last year returned with more popularity than ever. The Bee Gees had a very good year with such hits as Staying Alive and Night Fever, and it paid off when awards were given out. The group earned four Grammies which they well deserved. Among other musical hits were Chic’s Le Freak, and Y. M.C. A. by the Village People. on’? Steve Martin’s second album, A Wild and Crazy Guy, was released this fall. His appearances on Satur- day Night Live have made him a favorite among many students. The Superbowl, between Dallas and Pittsburgh was supposedly one of the best ever. The Cowboys were upset 31-35 in a very close game. However, due to the severe ice storms in our area which caused the electricity to go out, many peo- ple missed it. Politics took an unexpected turn when John Warner defeated Democrat Andy Miller in Virginia’s Senatorial race. The mass suicide of the People’s Temple cult occurred in Gyana. Over 900 people died in the tragedy. Overall this was a very eventful year full of disco, comedy, science- fiction and excitement.

Numerous sports related events take place after school. There is almost never a day that one team or another is not practic- ing. | The Varsity and J. V. Football teams go through very strenuous workouts three to four times a week. Cross country, indoor and outdoor track teams meet daily. When weather is bad they run in- side in the halls, stepping over, around and sometimes even through anything in their way. During the winter season, it’s virtually impossible to find the gym unoccupied. Between the four basketball teams, practice runs almost non-stop, sometimes as late as nine o’clock. Team mem- bers run offensive and defensive plays, shoot free throws and scrim- mage each other. Cheerleaders practice several days a week. Formations and stunts have to be perfected and new cheers learned. Regular meetings are held by various clubs and organizations throughout the school. Most of these meetings are held directly after school closes and are very brief. Business matters are dis- cussed and plans are made. Some special meetings, however, are held at night and last several hours, such as orientation by the Tri-Hi-Y, and taco feasts by the Spanish Club. Three to four times a year, dances are held at school by dif- ferent clubs and the S. C. A., such as homecoming and the spring dance. @) ods Costt-) ham-re slore) Map) more Sian just six hours of desk work.

As a distance runner, Lisa Dehart runs every day after school, which has paid off in numerous records at school and the surrounding com- munity. She has competed in Oregon and the ten-miler among numerous other races. Lisa hopes to compete in college perhaps at Lynchburg College where she will at last be able to compete with girls.

Before the game, lounging football players relax behind the gym as they watch the fans come in. “Go Red!” “Come on Devils!” Sitting on the cold, hard bleacher your screams blend in with all the other shouts. All the fans seem as one, rooting for the players, cheering them on. Down on the field, the players worry, concentrate and fight with all they've got to win. Inside the gymnasium, everyone seems to be packed together. It’s hot and stuffy, but the fast-moving excite- ment is in the air. Tension mounts as the clock runs down and you wait for the winning basket! All the worry and work that goes into one night’s game builds up and finally ends. As the lights go out and everyone pours out into the cold night air as they leave for home, they know that whether it was a victory or defeat, it was somehow worthwhile. Sports 37 Devils Before the season started, no one outside of Rustburg thought that the Devils would finish above the break-even mark. Although Rustburg could not capture the Seminole District title for the fourth straight year, the Devils dis- played such a powerful defense and explosive offense that everyone who watched a varsity football game this season could not help but marvel at this team that lost over 75% of its starters to gradua- tion last year. Back was a young team that Coach Ray Wade called, “The most together group of guys I have ever coached.” Excitement ran high in the Red Devil buses on the way to Jefferson Forest for the opening game of the 1978 season. After a scoreless first half the Devils and Thurmond Lewis came alive, roaring to a decisive 22-0 win. Lewis finished with 153 yards rushing, while John Hirtz, Tony Perrow, and Art Jones had six solo tackles each. Overconfidence caused a narrow victory the following week against the Liberty Minutemen. The Devils lacked enthusiasm through the first three quarters, scoring only one touchdown and leading 6-0.

Then came Appomattox, with the Raiders heavily favored to polish off the “struggling” Red Devils. Many supposedly loyal Rustburg fans began streaming for the exits after the Devils fell behind 6-19 with a little over five minutes left to play. But Perrow streamed through the Appomattox line to block a Freddie Mitchell punt and Lewis fell on the football in the end zone to pull to within five. After that the defense held the Raiders on downs. The Devil of- fense went fifty yards in one playon a bomb from Ken Anthony to Mike Payne and took the lead for good, 20-19. The tightest game of the season found the Devils lacking. After fighting to a 12-0 lead over Amherst, the Devil defense folded, and the Lancers took a 12-14 vic- tory away from Rustburg Stadium.

Rustburg played like a little league team the following week in an 8-30 loss to the William Campbell Generals. For the Devils superfans the evening was a nightmare, with Rustburg doing little right and William Campbell doing little wrong. The massacre did have one good side effect; it in- stilled a desire to win that had been lacking in the past two games. Triple-A Heritage High School proved to be one of the most ex- citing opponents of the year for the Devils, and for a while it seemed as through the Rustburg squad might pull the upset of the century. After oattling for three quarters to a scoreless tie, Heritage took advan- tage of a blocked punt deep in Devil territory to score the game’s only touchdown, prevailing 0-7. Rustburg did not give up. Win- ning the remaining three games would give the Devils a good chance of tying for the district title. Nelson County fell to the Devils 48-0 behind a good defensive effort and the running of Lewis and Kenny Jones. Lewis took game- high rushing honors with 175 yards, while Jones added 115. Hirtz and Perrow stood out on defense for Rustburg. Arch-rival Brookville was scheduled for the closing game. Across the county, league leading Appomattox faced Amherst in a game that would decide the final standings in the Seminole District. If the Devils could beat Brookville and Amherst could upset Ap- pomattox, then Rustburg would once again hold a part of the title. Rustburg narrowly defeated Brookville 6-2 in exciting fashion. Dead-locked O-0O after three periods of play, the Devils scored on Kenny Jones’ twenty yard run. Later, the Devils elected to snap the ball out of the endzone for a safety rather than risk a possible blocked punt, making the score 6- 2. The defense then snuffed out Brookville’s ground and air attack, and the Devils held on for their seventh win of the season against three losses. Amherst, however, could not knock off Appomattox, losing 23-21, and the Devils had to settle for a second place finish in the district standings. 1978 VARSITY FOOTBALL TEAM: (front row) Lloyd Payne, Bubba Rosser, Alvin Smith, Kenny Jones, Greg Saunders, Tony Perrow, Marc Stone, John Hirtz, Bo Tweedy, Jerome Elliott, David Fittro.

Cheerleaders are the core of enthusiasm and spirit, not only at football games but throughout the school as well. Who do you think decorated lockers, locker rooms, and made buttons for. students to wear? Certainly not the coaches! The varsity cheerleaders plan all of the pep rallies, that are sup- posed to get students “fired up” for the games. Remember Reverend Steve Farmer, and the Amherst Lancer horse whom Terrell May, alias “Wild Bill” so bravely tamed? Well, these crazy schemes were thought up by the cheerleaders. Who were responsible for taking students’ money at the Homecom- ing carnival? The J.V. cheerleaders, of course. They cheered diligently for three hours just to make money.

Football team is any indication of what 1982’s varsity team will be, the Seminole District had better look out! This year’s young gridders compiled an im- pressive 5-3 record against teams that were usually quite a bit bigger and faster. The J.V. Football season also developed quite a bit of promising talent that will be put to use in the next few years on the varsity level. Led by the strong right arm of quarterback Mitch Stone, the Baby Devils won their opening two games against Liberty, 14-0, and Appomattox, 12-0, showing spirit and determination. But over- confidence proved to be the deter- mining factor in a disappointing O- 21 loss to the Amherst Lancers. Stopping Gretna, 18-6, the Devils were led by leading tackler Lincoln Wood and a balanced of- fense. Back-up quarterback Kevin Markham came in after Stone was injured to throw two touchdown passes against William Campbell, but suffered a 14-26 loss. Behind an all out offensive effort that totalled seventy points in two games, the Baby Devils walloped Altavista, 34-8 and stunned Brookville, 36-18. Coach Robert Miller noted that although the Devils were young, small and inexperienced, they made up for their weaknesses with an aggressive defense and poten- tially exposive offense. Team leaders for the J.V.’s were Bill Scott, who led the team in rushing, scoring, and pass receptions, and Lincoln Wood, who led the team in tackles and interceptions. Along with Scott and Wood, Stone and Edgar Anderson were named Out- standing Players for the 1978 season.

Pam Stevens added 11 points in the win. In the next two games, the J. V.’s defeated Gretna 64-31, and Jeffer- son Forest 73-19. Sarah Jackson had 25, Kristie Claybrook and Lisa Charlton 10 each against Gretna. Against Forest, the “Jacksons” poured in 17 a piece while Lisa Charlton added 12. Rolling over AAA E. C.

Sarah and Amanda Jackson combined for 24 to defeat Wm. Campbell 46-15, then led the team to a 39-28 vic- tory over Liberty with 12 and 11 respectively. Winning the last three games by wide margins, the young Devilettes shifted scoring with Sarah scoring 15 and Amanda 12 ina 71-25 romp over Forest, and Lisa Charlton rip- ping the nets for 16, and Pam Stevens 10 in a 52-22 defeat over Gretna. In the last game of the season against Appomattox, the Devilettes, led by Amanda Jackson’s 15 and Pam Stevens 10, defeated the Raiderettes 66-31.

V. to Varsity, then Darin was struck with appendicitis, putting him out for the remainder of the season. Paige hit 15 points, and Lincoln Wood hit 14, ina 44-52 loss to AAA E. C. Glass. The Baby Devils won the next two games with Wood hitting 13, Paige hitting 12, and Larry Calohan hitting 10, in a 44- 33 victory over Nelson. Defeating Gretna 51-29, Paige scored 14 and Wood 12.

Boy, I almost ran over that girl when she stepped out from the bathroom!” The sound of groups running up and down the steps and through the halls is an integral part of win- ter sports. Since the indoor track team has no other place to run, they must take to the halls as the cold and snow keep them inside. The running and any other preparations took place with one goal in mind; a good performance in the district meet. Several of the members achieved this with a stand-out performance by Keith Godsey. Keith, being a distance runner, exceled in his events. He won the mile and placed second in the 1,000 meter. Kenny Jones placed fourth in the sixty yard high hurdles and Bo Lewis added another fourth place finish in the | sixty yard dash to help the team finish in the meet. In the Regionals only Keith completed, again he won the mile. He placed third in 1,000 meter. He advanced to the state competition where he placed fourth in both e- vents. Indoor track and basketball won't be the only official winter sports any more. Mr. Marshall Tur- ner has been preparing a group of strong young men to compete in the district as a varsity wrestling team. The team started work last year lifting weights and building muscles. They experimented this year as a preparatory one for next year when they will have more ade- quate facilities. They wrestled against JV squads from other schools and performed well con- sidering their inexperience and disadvantage of holding all their matches away. James Jones and Ronnie Andrews were Turner’s outstanding wrestlers and are his top prospects for next year. Senior Jerome Elliott strains to hear the gun at the start of the 440 relay.

Ming uiatiapehi ails “Potential and desire ... ” Towards the end of basketball season, when the sun starts coming out every day and it’s warm enought to sit outside during lunch, everyone begins anticipating what their records will be like and who will be playing what position or competing in what event. The baseball team under Coach Miller began “conditioning” in late January, while many members of the track team had been competing throughout the indoor season. Golf members could be found at any of the local courses almost every weekend shooting a couple of rounds with “tough” competitors. Expectations were high during pre-season with the likes of pitcher David Brown, who was runner up to player-of-the-year in ’78. The baseball team had plenty of ex- perience returning. The softball team was looking forward to a good season with returning starters and a lot of bench depth. Both the boys and girls track teams were anticipating record- breaking seasons, while the golf and tennis teams were working hard to gain experience and make improvements before the first matches. Tennis enthusiast Julie Johnson returns a liner from the ball machine in preparation for tennis season, Waiting patiently for the return of warm weather, Jeff Wade gets his golf gear in working order.

Clubs, classes, and organizations went all out to make money for that certain project, ring dance or prom. But these groups don’t always work to earn money. They work for other people, they work to further their education outside a classroom, and they work for the fun of it. Resting his arms on the table, Terry Bradley wonders just how many chestnuts the jar contains. Listening with interest to a senior’s ideas for class colors, Mrs. Carolyn Bushong and Joan Burliegh prepare to con- tribute their opinions. But clubs are only an extension of the classrooms. A class is a school in a nutshell; students, teachers, and mostly just plain work. All of those last minute meetings after school and homework assignments that only Einstein could do seem impossible to cope with, but it gets done and finally the club’s plans are all set and the homework is turned in on time. Then it’s clear that it was all worthwhile. Academics and Organizations 69 Communications “When is our paper due?” “Tomorrow!?! Oh, no, I don’t even have a thesis statement yet!” This problem is not uncommon to any English student whether they are in one of the composition courses or any of the other thirty-five different quarter courses offered by the English department. The writing classes require stu- dents to write one of each type of paper such as argumenta tive, analytical and comparison. When a student completes one of these quar- ters, he has had plenty of practice in the art of composition. The literature courses allow stu- dents the chance to be exposed to 70 English Forensics such greats as Shakespeare, Hem- mingway, and Steinbeck. Most stu- dents when asked say that their English class is “a lot more in- teresting than they first believed it would be.” English may also be used in a var- sity activity known as Forensics. The team was an upset winner in the dis- trict meet. The team was headed by Steve Farmer and Charles Rath who won first places in extemporaneous speaking and poetry respectively. Ann Ware added a second place finish to contribute points to the winning ef- fort. The top three winners went to participate in the regional meet. First place forensics winner Charles Rath recalls the poem he read to clinch the top honor. Mike Holt finds out listening to “Hamlet” is not as exciting as he once believed it could be.

It’s pretty good.” The Devil’s Advocate is Rustburg’s school Newspaper. It’s written and put together solely by the members of the newspaper staff in order to keep students informed. about exciting events in and around the school. A new edition is released once every few months. As the end of the year draws near, students become very anxious to received their yearbooks. Only the final publication is seen by the stu- dents and very few realize the com- plexity of the work that goes into The Owl. Before the actual work can begin, ads are sold to surrounding businesses to determine the amount of money available, then each staff Sey member is assigned a section to work re = et that with a deadline to meet which in- | e volves long hours of hard work and- frustration.

If a student takes physics or chemistry, he will find out that Algebra and Trigonometry are half of the class and those students who go into economics will find that math becomes their livelihood. Even athletes need math; without statistics they wouldn’t know the number of points they score or yards they gained. Students, when they were asked why they took math and what they thought the purpose of it was, gave valid replies. Most students in ad- vanced courses in math said they SNe ee ae Helping out in math concentration, Rhonda Hines covers the match made on the previous go. needed it for college and their future job. Scott Tolley and Pat Riley, both tenth-grade Geometry students shared the opinion of the advanced students while Phillip Dixon, a ninth-grade Geometry student wasn’t really sure of the purpose of math, but he took it because he was pretty good at it. The Math department offers nine types of math. Everything from basic arithmetic to the com- plicated world of analysis where students learn anything from addi- tion to the length of a flagpole shadow. One thing can be con- cluded from it all, math is a necessity in today’s world. Taking time out from her math homework, Betty Jackson is relieved to see she only has two more problems.

Sure facts are a major part of the curriculum, but this year students decided to go a step further than classroom investigation. With the help of some interested social studies teachers, a History club was formed. Led by president Tami Tyree, the club sponsored a 82 Social Studies foveal look Christmas stocking raffle that was drawn during the Christmas assembly. Members of history classes had the chance to visit the Appomattox Surrender Grounds to learn more about local and American history. At the same time with the help of Mrs. B. J.

Besides sewing, students bake, make crafts, and study the basic structure of the family unit. All Home Economics students have the opportunity to join FHA (Future Homemakers of America). This club holds monthly meetings at which they pick the “Member of the Month”, and choose Miss FHA of the year.

The money was used for various social events such as Halloween and Christmas parties, a spring picnic and the second dance for Muscular Dystrophy.

She became involved in school by playing volleyball and joining Tri-Hi-Y, and she had the chance to view her “first football game ever”. Paolo, from Belo-Horigote, a city of 2.5 million people in eastern Brazil, came to America to improve his English skills since he plans to attend MIT.

Many students think that drawing pictures is all there is to an art class. Not true. As any art student will tell you, your drawing ability can be nil, and you may be a good art prospect. You could sculpt with clay, carve wood or soap, or even glue magazine cut- outs to form collages.

E. classes provide a sometimes relaxing break from the every day classroom routine and also meet state requirements con- cerning physical education. Eighth, ninth, and tenth graders go to gym classes two to three times a week, and when they aren’t in gym, they take courses in health, first aid, and Driver’s Ed. Sportsmanship is also emphasized as well as good character qualities. The P. E. students participate in organized exercises and sports such as calisthenics, and trampol- ing as well as basketball, volleyball, softball, etc. Students also learn new and unusual games like crab soccer. Physical Education conditions the mind as well as the body for further growth, both mentally, and physically. In other words the goal of P.

As graduation nears, seniors must make the big decision of what to do next year. Many will go into various jobs. Some will head to college while others will marry. Those going into various jobs have had the opportunity of taking vocational courses at the Voc. Tech. Center. Students can choose from courses such as Child Care, Printing and Drafting. Many students plan to get jobs in their field of study while others were learning the skill for back-up pur- poses. Many of the students who plan to attend college will try their first year at CVCC. Others will head off to 4 year colleges. Wherever college bound students decide to go they will remain loyal alumni. For those not college bound, some will settle down here, others will travel but whatever the class of 79 decides to do it will always be remembered as the last graduating class of old Rustburg High School. ™ Debbie Lynn Rakes—“Debbie’—Pom Pon 11, 12; JV.

Being a member of both the newspaper and annual staffs developed her interests in journalism which she will major in at UVA. Gaye Rafferty was mostly involved in one club activity or another. She was a member of the SCA, monogram and French Club. She became in- terested in journalism as a member of the annual staff and was Co-Editor as a senior. Gaye plans to attend Rad- ford College and major in journalism. Sandra Dixon is music and science-minded. She marched with the high school band for five years and represented us on the All-County and All-Regional bands where she developed an interest in the piano. She won several awards for her play- ing. She plans to attend Clemson University and major in Marine Biology. the Top Ten? Exactly what does it take to be in There is really no one answer to the question; every person appearing in the Top Ten arrived there differently. Contrary to popular belief, making it to the Top Ten is not all books and business. As a matter of fact, almost every student was involved in at least three extracurricular activities and many times it was not too easy to keep that Top Ten status.

Greg Saunders played Varsity football team three years, two of which they won the district championship, and he played golf in the spring. He was Senior Class Treasurer and a member of the Senior Council. Greg will attend VPI and SU next fall and major in Business Administration. Rochelle Martin loves outdoor life. Her free time is spent trail- riding in a jeep or going to the beach every chance she can get. She works at Nationwide In- surance Company as a receptionist and will attend CVCC for two years then transfer to UVA where she will study sociology or political science. Pam Scott was involved in an unusual activity out of school. She modeled for Super Hair Swingers as a hobby. She was a member of the SCA, Senior Council and FBLA. Pam plans to attend Community College where she will study to be a systems analyst. Honor Society is an integral part of being in the Top Ten. Several mem- bers were also members of the Ex- ecutive Committee, and some were officers. Hard work and determination put these ten people here, and now they are recognized and can be proud of their accomplishments.

Displaying the pomp and pride that is worthy of a Devils gridder, Ken Anthony shows his own unique style. Showing how he feels about the junior class and the Devils, Terrell May says “We’re number one!” in an af- ternoon football pep rally. “It sure is crowded around here!” “Yea, but wait till next year!” For most of us, nobody seemed to mind the crowds, or the hassle of going back to school. Everyone knew that next year we would be in a new school, one that we could break in, so why be worried about this year? We were just right; not too old to have all the respon- sibilities or fears of being a senior nor too young to be con- 126 Juniors sidered the “underclassmen”. We were Juniors, and we set out to claim our role. I remember back in the fall when a lot of my classmates like Ken Anthony, Thurmond Lewis, Mike Payne, Steve Farmer and the rest of the bunch were roam- ing the football field. David Thompson ran cross country, Melva McDaniel and Kenda Milner started for the volleybal team. ‘ There were others who were i Woody, President; Sam} Secretary; Sheree Ro Reporter, Sharon Shanabe involved in different occupations such as bus driving, writing the Devil’s Hotline for the Lynchburg News and par- ticipating in club activities.

Since Steve seriously began his hobby three years ago, he has taken approximately 6000 pictures. He has been the photographer for the literary Magazine and Yearbook staff over the past two years and was appointed the County Fair photographer. Steve attended the Longwood Workshop during the 130 Juniors past summer to learn more about photography. Steve has ac- cumulated about $700 worth of camera equipment which he has paid for himself. He also has his own darkroom where he sometimes spends three and a half hours developing a roll of film. When asked whether he was go- ing to make his hobby a career in the future, Steve said, “No, I only take pictures for the fun of it; ifa picture makes you feel good, then I know its a good picture.” He says he doesn’t look for pictures with deep meanings or symbolism. A picture must have more than just good focus; it should create a feel- ing of happiness according to Steve’s standards.

Well, Darryl Tucker has advanced beyond mere paper airplanes. Darryl builds model airplanes which he flys by attached lines or by radio con- trol. Darryl has been con- structing airplanes for four years ever since his father handed down to him his model plane. These planes are very com- plicated; they are built from a material called balsa and the wings are made from silk. Darryl owns such models as the Lil Satan, WW II ME 109 and Jr. Ringmaster. Depending on the Aviator Darryl Tucker searches his flight box for the Spare part that will get his plane into the air.

Some models are constructed to engage in battle and are flown by radio control. Darryl says the planes get smashed up but that’s the fun of it. Not only is his hobby i Tommy Wooldrige Terry Wright o¢ High complicated, but it is very ex- pensive. The engines are the most expensive part of building model airplanes. They can cost up to $72.

Chatting with friends during lunch, Roger Cash seems to have finally caught the punch line to the joke. Escaping the hectic lunchroom scene, Lisa Taylor prepares to take a flight out of the cafeteria. Glancing over his shoulder at a passing friend, Joey Han- cock smiles a hello. “The middle year drag?” A state- ment used very often to describe the so-called “non-eventful” tenth year of school, but this Sophomore class never suffered it. In fact the year whizzed by. Sure, every now and then we wondered if we would ever become juniors so we could order our rings and get them at the Ring Dance. Anticipation of next year was, of course, two-fold, not only will we be juniors but we will be juniors in a new school. But the 134 Sophomores looking ahead was only now and then, and we were constantly reminded in many different ways of our actual status. The most obvious of all remin- ders was the Minimum Com- petency Test all of us had to take. Boy, were we afraid. Everyone kept telling us how hard it was. But after we opened the test booklets we realized that we didn’t need to know all the dates in world history or all the math theorems ever derived. Being the “middle class” wasn’t easy but everyone must go through it, and we weathered it pretty well. People say it’s dull but we got out of this year exactly what we put into it.

But how many have owned four tanks full of fish? Sophomore Gary Campbell does! His hobby is raising and showing fish. Gary took first place at the Campbell County Fair where he displayed an Angel fish that was eight inches tall and an inch wide. His four aquariums range in size from five gallons of water to fifteen gallons. Each one contains a power filter and must be cleaned once a vear. Among the many fish Gary owns are the Black Mollies and some Zebra fish, which sometimes jump out of the tank!

The booth made a lot of money and a good time was offered to all by the various activities sponsored. The Sophomores were represen- ted during halftime activities by Teresa Childress and Kathy Ander- son who were escorted by Sammy Dawson and Mark Epperson respectively.

Not only did they have to take the state-mandated Competence Tests, but this was the year they would finally get their driver’s licenses. Much preparation goes into ob- taining a license as most Sophomores found out. They first had to take and pass a classroom course that lasted eighteen weeks. Then they had to complete a 15- hour course on the Campbell County Driving Range with an in- structor and then they must drive in the city and county for two hours with another instructor. The waiting list was long for the Range and the road tests, but many Sophomores found it was worth the wait. Glen Layne C.H.

The Thanksgiving turkey you buy from the store must come from somewhere, but where? They come from families like Larry Calohan’s! Sophomore Larry Calohan and his family have owned a turkey farm for sixty-five years consisting of about 350 turkeys. The turkeys must be fed 300 pounds of grain and forty gallons of water every day. Sometimes Larry has to get up at four A.M. to do this job, but only when he has to! The Calohans purchase domestic turkeys from Harrison- burg and then sells them at a dollar per pound. According to Larry, they must keep the turkeys for five months before they are sold. They do most of the business during the Thanksgiving and Christmas season when they sell 180 to 200 turkeys, and that’s no chicken feed!

Enjoying the breeze-way during lunch, Martha Carson uses the time to talk to her friends. With a look of dilemma on her face, Tammy Thompson sits during lunch trying to make a decision. “Hey don’t pick on us, we’re not the youngest!” That’s right. For the first time in nine years our class is not the youngest. But being older than the eighth graders didn’t stop the up- per classmen from picking on us. We've had our share of teasing about our size and being sent to the wrong class at the beginning of school when we didn’t know where anything was. Being a member of the class of 144 Freshmen ) 1982 has not been an easy task. Adjusting from the oldest to an almost-youngest role takes a lot of time. But the transition was made in little or no time. The girls all seemed to find upper classmen for boy-friends, and the guys suddenly had crushes on the “older women.” The transition also means more freedom. Now we can roam about (in unrestricted areas) during lunch or just sit in the lunchroom and listen to the juke box, the best Freshman Cla Lori Farmer, vi Claybrook, trea quality of high school (next to boys) according to Tammy Thompson, a fellow classmate.

Many girls and guys contributed to both fine teams. Some Freshmen were members of varsity teams; volleyball, basketball, track and wrestling. Many clubs had Freshmen paying dues. Ss .

Knowing about granite and William Shakespeare may not be the most practical knowledge, but it helps broaden the horizons of rising young adults and possibly leads a few students into the fields of geology and literature.

Not p: Keeping a close watch on the football cheerleaders, Marco Livolsi finds pep rallies more interesting than he first ex- pected. Checking to see who is making the selection on the juke box, Anita “Pete” Riley hopes it will be one of her favorite songs. Yelling out her support for the team, Lisa Grishaw shows that eighth graders have that “Devil” spirit. “Up with short people!” From the minute we stepped through the door on the first day of classes, all we heard for about a month was “short people” and “kid” jokes. Be- ing teased about our size and age came to be expected, but soon we were accepted as a part of the school and as a constant reminder of next years new facilities. We may be small in stature, but no one can over-look our spunk and 156 Eighth Grade school spirit. We put ourselves on the map by chipping in our pocket- change to win the National Honor Society sponsored spirit chain which made everyone stand up and take notice of “us kids.” A fellow classmate, Lisa Grishaw expressed the feeling of most of us when she said she “would rather be here instead of the middle school.” Actually, being part of the high school came as a mid-summer shock to all of us. Most of us saw this move as a great opportunity. We soon became involved with many aspects of high school life, athletics and club work being the main interests.

All of the classes in the school now except for the eighth grade had the oppor- tunity to rule the underclassmen at the middle school. That’s one of the times when you can be number one and still get away with goofing off. But, most eighth graders agree that they would pass up being on top at the middle school to be at the high school any day.

Pauline collects china dolls from antique and collectors shops located in Lynchburg. She also has a doll given to her“by her grandmother which came from France. Collecting antique dolls is more than just a hobby, many people in- vest fortunes into these dolls and many are on display at Museums. Pauline’s collection of ten valuable dolls started three years ago when she received a doll for her birthday. She sometimes buys the glass heads and makes the body herself out of muslin, tightly stuffed with cotton.

Lisa Raven Douglas Robinson John Rosser Richard Reynolds Angie Roberts Yvette Rosser Eighth Grade 163 Our first debut “Is the S.C.A. going to have eighth grade homecoming representatives this year?” “Of course, we’re part of the school, aren’t we?” Naturally the eighth grade was to be represented at the half time activities on homecoming evening, so the eighth grade was sent through the pains of nominating candidates. After voting on the two finalists, it was narrowed down to Becky Baker and Mary Jackson! Becky was escorted by John Blankenship and Mary was es- corted by Curtis Jones. It was quite an experience for the representatives, for it was the first time in nine years the eighth grade was recognized during homecoming.

Displaying her excitement and enthusiasm about the beginning of a new year, Mrs. Nora Jones demonstrates her unique teaching style to her new students. Trying to remember if he has forgotten to do anything im- portant for the football game, Mr. Russell “Doc” Dufford, thinks of all the things that needed to be done. Last spring and summer when most people were glad to be out of school, the administration headed by Mr. Pendleton, was already planning for a new year. A year in which twenty new faculty members had to be worked in along with 300 new students. The administrators knew that their planning would probably determine whether the transition would be a success. It had to be done, so they set out to do their 166 Faculty Unity in spit ie . : i’, Toe best. They obtained five trailers and several new offices and cafeteria staff to handle the load. It was rough those first few weeks according to Mr. Pendleton, who said, “The cooperation was ex- cellent and the faculty deserves the most credit for making it work out.” The faculty quickly developed from two separate groups into one unified group. This group was responsible for the safe shuttling of | cafeteria staff and the faculty o PONV ECE Tee Hees Dealing with the lunchroom ¢ 200 students to Brookville and for effectively supervising the ac- tivities of the other 1200 students that remained at Rustburg.

Faculty 167 The other side of teachers Few students can imagine their teacher doing anything but giving tests or issuing homework, but believe it or not, there is life after 3 p.m. Many faculty members have special interests and hobbies that take up most of their time away from school.

The sink is stopped up in the girl’s bathroom and the floor is flooded!” No matter what time of the day it is, the custodians and cafeteria workers are on call. They do their jobs sometimes twelve hours a day and usually six days a week. The custodian job is not an easy one, cleaning up after 1200 students every day could never be easy. Mrs. Beulah Nowlin is probably the best known of all the custo- dians. Whenever something goes wrong or someone needs to get into a locked room they always call Beulah first. In the lunchroom the best known is Mrs. Geraldine “Ma” Kelly. She and her crew of six prepare the food and take a lot of criticism in stride. With the additional students, the entire staff still seems to cope with day to day tasks. Looking around to make sure all the food is prepared for cooking is Mrs, Audrey Charlton. Working to prepare another meal for 1200 students is Mrs. Geraldine “Ma” Kelly and Mrs. Audrey Charlton. Adding the missing ingredient to the main course, Mrs. Kathy Kelly hopes she hasn’t added too much.
