Class Colors Titian red and Ivory Class Motto Class flower Red and White Camation What we are to become, we are now becoming. Class Poem OUR STEP FORWARD Curious the day we entered; Challenged as the years have come; Our school life has brought much growth, Surrounded by new friends and more freedom. Our aims were sure and steadfast, As we rose each year in class. Our goals and heads went higher Till Seniors we were at last! Our paths all seemed narrow, Yet the steps were marked clear. We had cause to doubt and wonder, But little reason to fear. Our acquaintances within these walls Here at Southwest High Have brought new experiences As each day grew nigh. We have within our hands The chance to bring success, But we know that this can be done only Through initiative and willingness. We now approach the threshold of life That leaves all but our memories behind. For now we look upon a great new dawn That faces all mankind! LOUISE DUNN 46 Class Song Our high school days passed swiftly; Each year brought something new. Our friendship, study, wisdom, So many mem'ries too. Our Freshman steps were falt'ring; Sure Sophomores we become. As Juniors we were hopeful; Now Senior is our name. So here's to our dear high school That we will leave too soon. Always we will remember Graduation day in June. KATHERINE BAILEY EDDIE FLOWERS

From that 'Punk'’ MAMIE KIMEL, the group buys a bamboo raft and then floats toward Australia to see SARAH SAIN and her kangeroo farm. In this land of bounce resides the world's ping-pong champion, GAYNELLE MARTIN, SUE MEADOWS, who is still hoping to beat Gaynelle, practices faithfully on her custom-built ping-pong table designed by that spirited craftsman EDDIE FLOWERS. Everyone piles into EMILY KETNER's canoe and heads for the Fiji IsLands. Queen of the islands, DEANNA SPRINKLE, welcomes them. During the welcome, ANNE BOYD and MARGARET HEWITT hastily build several grass huts for the guests to live in during their stay. SANDRA WINTERS is high in the top of a coconut tree busily collectingthe dinner. After a short stay, they take a flying fish to the Hawaiian Islands, recently purchased from the United States government by LINDA WATSON. There go those famous firemen STEVE BLAKLEY and BOBBY WALL off to extinguish the newest volcano created by NANCY SEALEY. As the group heads to see CAROL HOOTS and CAROLYN LINEBERRY do the hula, CAROL CROUCH gives them all a pineapple from her plantation, JOHNNY DISHER takes the group to the pampas of Argentina. Here BONNIE SPANN is running the world's largest comed beef factory. BETTY BALL, the first lady gaucho, is rounding up the corned beef. JERRY MAYES is just leaving with a posse to search the jungle for KAREN KING, who is out looking for animals for her zoo. After six days on LOUISE McBRIDE's ice breaker, a floating iceberg is spotted off the coast of Antarctica. MIKE HAUSER and KERMIT ESSEX are sitting on top of it playing a cool game of chess. Leaving the boys with a year's supply of sun tan lotion, they head for the world's newest capital, Brazilia. Campaign posters greet them. It seems that SNOOKEY EVERHART is running for president of the mafia; but his opponent RONNIE HARPER is pretty confident, and why not, with MARYELLEN ROBERTSON as campaign manager and a henchman like JERRY MOCK spying on Snookey's every move! As the group tries to get on board a steamship, PHYLLIS WOOSLEY tries to stop them for fear it will sink. Read your physics, girl! On the way to the Panama Canal, the ships carpenter, JUDY LUTZ, informs them that the ship won't clear the locks, but ELAINE BAITY and DIANN BECKNER, who took over the canal after ousting Castro, assure them that the ship will have plenty of room. The ship sails on through and it's North to Alaska. DAPHANE WALL's seal coat business is doing fine, but the same can not be said about DONALD JONES' gold mine. Thar just ain't no gold in them thar hills. Kayaking down the Pacific is a real experience for the group. Upon reaching their destination, California, they tour Disneyland guided by FRANCES ELLIS. HAROLD SHORE is starring in the Life Story of Roger Jones with Roger there to aid in the production and FRANKIE VAUGHT to direct it. The movie ought to be a smash with all that talent combined. CAROLYN CRAVER is on the campus of U.C.L.A. comparing it with all other U.S. colleges. Will she ever make up her mind? CAROL SWEAT has a thriving donkey farm near the Grand Canyon. LINDA SMITH is her best customer. She leads donkey-back excursions into the canyon. Surely hope she is sure-footed! In San Antonio VICKY CONRAD is busy at work trying to repair the Alamo, but JANE VOSS keeps the wall shaking with her constant basketball practice. Bourbon Street has changed a lot since CARROLL ST.PIERRE has opened her secretarial school. On the banks of the Mississippi, MARY MARTIN has a banana split factory. PEARL ROTHROCK takes the group to the Cape where DEAMIE GRIFFITH is recording data on the behavior of DENNIS WHITE in his space capsule which is headed for Pluto--we hope--but you know Dennis! With BRENDA ROTHROCK as the chief astronaut, the group takes a rocket ship to Southwest. IKE CAMPBELL and LARRY DULL are still there. Larry is writing a revised edition of Thirty Days to a More Powerful Vocabulary. Ike--well, he is just bothering the teachers. The reunion is a smashing success. But wait, who is missing? JANE CRATER, where are you? Oh, there she is, industriously working with her committee to plan the next get-together. See you in '82! JUDY JONES ROBERT REED Prophets 45
