And he answered, saying: Your friend is your needs answered. He is your field which you sow with love and reap with thanksgiving. And he is your board and your fireside. For you come to him with your hunger, and you seek him for peace. When your friend speaks his mind you fear not the “nay” in your own mind, nor do you withhold the ay.” And when he is silent your heart ceases not to listen to his heart; For without words, in friendship, all thoughts, all desires, all expectations are born and shared, with joy that is unacclaimed. When you part from your friend, you grieve not; For that which you love most in him may be clearer in his absence, as the mountain to the climber is clearer from the plain. And let there be no purpose in friend- ship save the deepening of the spirit. For love that seeks aught but the dis- closure of its own mystery is not love but a net cast forth: and only the unprofitable is caught. And let your best be for your friend. If he must know the ebb of your tide, let him know its flood also. For what is your friend that you should seek him with hours to kill? Seek him always with hours to live. For it is his to fill your need, but not your emptiness. And in the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed. “Kahlil Gibran” 3 And a youth said, Speak to us of Friend- ship.

Student Life Search for Higher Knowledge In the classroom, students generally learn from their teachers and textbooks. However, learning does not always come from one of these sources. By discussing problems, ideas, and solutions together, stu- dents can learn from each other. Studying in the outdoor classroom is a refreshing change. 12 Many high school boys work hard to excel in sports, such as track. Mr. Renfro looks happy today. Could it be that the band did a good job at I.U. Band Day! Students who excel academically are honored by being initiated into the National Honor Society.

It’s filled with mixed emotions and stu- dents from many different backgrounds. The students enjoy themselves in both academics and sports. Of course school is hard work and a lot of studying. However, an honest effort is made between students and teachers to understand each other. This understanding helps to provide an atmosphere within the school which is ideal for learning and excelling. the outcome of the last offensive play. Barb Reed enjoys playing in the high school band. m 15 Spirit of ‘72’ Students show school spirit in many ways. Some show it by yelling loudly at ballgames, while others show it, not through their emotions, but by silent support of the school and its activities. No matter how students show school spirit, it is an important part of school life. As the excitement mounts, so does the tension 16 Pep Sessions S.D. Pep Sessions are Gr—eat! F.F.A., F.H.A., the Band, and the cheerleaders sponsored the pep sessions this year. On imitation day the students im- itated basketball players, and on King’s Day, the students were re- quired to treat the players like kings. Farmers’ Day, Button Day, Hat Day, and Maroon and White Day succeeded in building more school spirit. Also, during sectional time, classes competed for the spirit stick by creating showcases and preparing skits.

Pink, green, yellow, and blue crepe paper streamers and panels decorated the walls, which separated the dance floor from the oval shaped center area which contained the tables and chairs. Crepe paper streamers radiated outward from the center of the gym to create a ceiling for the prom. In the center of the dining area hung a huge ball decorated with green pomps, beneath which stood a gazebo and a fountain. A windmill and a garden decorated separate corners of the dance floor. The girls who were pages wore above the knee dresses styled with an empire waistline, in plain pink, green, yellow, and blue pastel colors, while the boy pages wore blue shirts and white slacks. Court members are: Bonnie Smith Taylor, Janis Reed. Debbie Menefee. Carol Blauvelt, queen, Larry Evans, king, Gary Biddinger, Kent Holcomb and Rick Taylor. Crown bearers are Annette Shireman and Mark Cooper. 19 Sherrie Vanest Wears Queen’s Crown in 1972 1971 homecoming queen, Janie Bruns, stepped down from her reign as she presented her crown to Sherrie Vanest, 1972 homecoming queen. Sherrie was also presented a dozen roses and a kiss from Kenny AmRhein, student council president. Queen candidates were nominated by the senior class and voted on by the entire student body. The student council planned the homecoming and also bought decorations and flowers. South’s second annual homecoming was held on December 10, at the home basketball game against Southwestern Shelby. Other senior candidates were: JoAnne Beesley, Patti Hensley, and Denise Theobald. The queen’s court consisted of three girls escorted by the presidents of their respective classes; freshman, sophomore and junior.

S.D. defeated Crothersville and then Smithville in order to win the trophy. After defeating North Decatur on Nov. 19 and Greensburg on Jan. 22 in two of our most exciting games, South was declared the unofficial county champ. Jack Emly, a senior, passed the 1,000 point milestone with a free toss in the North Dearborn game on Dec. 3. According to Coach Whitaker, the S.D. team has many of the qualities that make up a good varsity basketball team; and with the loss of only two seniors, the team should continue to improve next year. Jack Emly pauses for a moment of meditation. Coach Glenn Whitaker. Kevin Allen, Monte Hoover, Kevin Hall, Jim Gorman, Terry Maddux, Jack Emly, Greg Cruser, Roger Harrison, Mark Asher, and Dan Gault.

Edinburgh, Milan, and North Dearborn were the defeated teams. S.D. students and fans gave much support and backing to the S.D. team. Students put up posters and held pep rallies in order to show school spirit. Knock’em down Cougars! From Left to Right, Top: Coach Mallaun, David Stone. Daryl Clark. Reese Baldwin. Jerry Hamer.

The team gained experience for next year. During the season, several reserve players moved up to the varsity level. Freshmen did most of the playing on the reserve team, therefore, the team looks forward to a good season next year. Mr. Mollaun coaches the reserve team. A determined player heads for a touchdown.

The eighth graders won two of seven, defeating Edinburg and North Decatur. Coach Mulroney said that the boys put forth 100% effort, however, they were limited by their lack of aggressiveness and size. Even though the boys didn't win a majority of their games, they gained experience and had a lot of fun. Row One: Tom Bruns, Mark Campbell, Kevin Wilson, David Brownfield, Brian Hitchell, Jim Gault, Bryon Baltus. Roger Krzyzanowski, Jim AmRhein, Rick Bewley. Mike Huber, and Tony Grimes, manager.

Cross Country Dedication and endurance are perhaps the most important qualities which a cross country runner must possess. South’s cross country runners strived to gain these qualities by practicing from one and a half to two hours a day. Although the runners were young and not very strong this year, they possess the ability and willingness to learn which is important if the team is to be successful in future years. As a part of training, cross country runners chase Coach Denny in his car. Members on the team from left to right: Mike Cos. Bob Low. Eddie Schreiner, Joe Theobald, Gordon Smiley.

The summer baseball team won seven out of seven games. Jack Emly and Danny Gualt made the All Conference Team. In one of our more exciting games, South was behind 5 to 1 in the last inning. We made two runs, and with 2 outs, the score was only 5 to 3. Our last batter, Jack Emly, hit a home run, to win the ballgame with a score of 6 to 5.

However, their losses were not due to a failure of practice. The team practiced three times a week. The reserve team won three games out of four, and the freshmen had an excellent record, winning four out of four games. The captains for the teams are Sandy Martin, varsity, Gwen Dunklebargar, reserve, and Lela Jayne, freshmen.

Mr. Siebel was the coach. South is very proud of an excellent golfer it produced last year, Gary Biddinger. His many fine accomplishments in golf included placing 3rd in the High School Sectional, 1st in the High School Regional, 1st in the High School State Finals, 1st in the Greensburg Classic, and 4th in the State Amateurs. He was defeated by Phil Sollin in the fourth round of play in the Western Amateur and was a semi-finalist in the Western Juniors. Gary made two hole-in-ones last summer; one in the State Amateur Qualifications and the other in the Western Juniors. Probably one of the greatest honors he received for golf was the Fred A. Keesley Award. This award is not only based on the ability of the golfer, but his attitude, grades, and citizenship as well. He is now attending I.U. on a full four year scholarship, based on his golfing ability. 39 Fine Arts This year students in Art II and ill extended their creativity to include the construction of furniture.

SRA helps a Seventh grader Improve his reading skills. John Profit and Jim Bruns learn spelling words. Eighth grade students improve their reading speed through the use of the shadow scope. 42 Foreign Language French and Spanish classes have been building towns on the walls of their classroom. Sounds elementary, doesn't it? It really isn’t. Students talk about the towns in French or Spanish to improve their vocabulary. Another interest of the classes was a newspaper produced by French II called “C'est la vie.” Spanish II wrote plays which the Spanish I classes performed. Both languages are taught by Mrs. Brookshire. Initiation into the foreign language club. Ed Schreiner rides a bicycle in a language club skit.

Dept, head, Mr. B. K. Bedford, has organized the math dept, so that the student is introduced to many new principles of math as a freshman, and from there can elaborate on his study of math until he finishes Pre-Calculus as a senior. 1 Jim Gorman discusses the solution to a graph problem with Mr. Bedford in Pre- Calculus math. Rhonda Wells finds trigonometry to be an interesting course, yet completely different from earlier math that she has taken. 44 Jim Wooten and Lanny Knapp doze off while reading their government.

The Metal Working classes are designed to aid the student in the use of tools, machines, and processes used in metal working. The students made such objects as bottle openers, cold chisels, sheet metal pans, and hammers. Woodworking provides an opportunity for the student to select, plan, construct and finish a project in wood using hand tools and machines. Bookcases, spice racks, shadow boxes, and picture frames were a few of the projects students made. Dwight Ferris takes a test on printing techniques in Graphic Arts. Julie Baugh serving a volleyball.
