Students scurried and sponsors bustled about making those last adjustments that make this the bus- iest and yet the most delightful day of the year. With a variety of striking colors and themes not only of class floats but also of club entries, this year's parade presented the largest, most spirited gathering of students and spectators alike. Dixie announced the winner, lst place - Seniors. The bleachers shook as shouts of triumph and screams of defeat hailed the winning float of Choo-Choo 'em Up. The finding of passes, the missing of classes, and the twisting of crepe paper till your hands were blue. Homecoming 70, a day we will remember. l 2 2 4 Seasonal Colors Accent 1970 Homecoming Excitement heightened as the Homecoming Queen Candidates, Cathy Hoffman, Felicia Latta, and Dixie Mansker were introduced in the semi-- formal atmosphere of an autumn colored Home- coming dance. The music crescendoed. David McIntyre, Master of Ceremonies, assisted Lauri Rudloff as she opened the sealed envelope. A moment of suspensive silence followedg then - DiXie's look of astonishment quickly changed into a gracious smile as she received the crown from retiring Queen Lynn Nitzche. Beneath the spot- light her special maids and attendants danced the Queen's dance with their football player escorts. Another year. Another Homecoming Dance. But a special memory for all Sparta High Students. RHONDA LINDSEY - sophomore attendant KATHY SUTTERER - junior attendant CHRIS MOORE - freshman attendant Mark Vick works with a sticky bulldog.

The thirty minute production of No- body Likes Mordacious and That 's Just the Way He Likes lt is the first play to be performed at Sparta High in six years. Di- rected by Mr. Bill Kirksey, speech teacher, the Mordacious play won second place honors for SHS at the district contest in competition with seven other plays. An evil magician, a mag- ic lamp, an innocent heroine, a pirate queen, and the world's greatest enemy of witches combined to create a fantasy for children's theater, Mordacious, the black magician, seeks to gain possession of a powerful genie by destroying poor little Orafu to steal her magic lamp.

After four years of high school exposure, twelve special persons are qualified to answer this often asked question. For, from the fifty-one seniors who received secret faculty votes, each of this dozen has demonstrated those individual qualities of leadership, responsibility, citizenship, dependability, talent, and attitude which characters- ize an Outstanding Senior. While these students possess most of these characteristics there are, how- ever, certain intangible qualities which tend to separate an Outstanding Senior from the other mem- bers of his class. Some have special abilities and talents while others are well- rounded students who do more than attend class. This group includes scholars, leaders, athletes, and students.

Naiional Honor Qooieig Iniiiaies Scholars For any student who hopes to be accepted into the Na- tional Honor Society, he must possess a combination of qual- ities, leadership, citizenship, attitude, scholarship, and character. Of these five qualities, scholarship is the most important. To be considered for the NHS, a junior or must have a 4,25 grade-point average. From those eligible, only five percent of the juniors and ten percent of the are chosen by the teachers by a secret vote. The names of the newly elected members are kept secret until they are announced at an assembly in the spring. This year two members of the National Honor Society qualified for appli- cation for a National Honor Society scholarship, Joann Dea- son and Dixie Mansker. JUNIORS. ROW 1: Gerald Bleem.

SHS Scholars Solve Formula of Success LF' Striving toward recognition and achievement in si...-ff or varied fields of endeavor is a challenge that many stu- dents confront themselves with. Maintaining a 5. O average in school is not an impossibility. Seven stu- dents are keeping records that show it can be done. Awards in academic subjects are highly valued and competition is often strenuous among competitive stu- dents. To be chosen as an Illinois State Scholar is the dream of a senior, but only a select few are chosen. The satisfaction mirrored in the faces of these students is well earned, for they have received the highest scholastic honors possible. Active participation and willingness to put forth a little extra effort is the magic formula that has rewarded these students. 'Wh'-1 These Students maintain a 5. 0 average.

It was a long climb, but one which will f never be forgotten. We made it through four Home- r comings, capturing two first place awards for our floats. Our senior float, Choo Choo 'Em Up was extra special, i for it won three first place titles, SHS Homecoming, Sparta Mardi Gras, and the Pinckneyville Halloween Parade. Our Prom, 200l: A Space Oddyssey, ap- peared as a glitter of aluminum foil and colored lights. And now, as we approach the final rung of our ladder, the days of diplomas, caps and gowns, and good-byes, we think fondly of SHS and know that as we each go our own ways and live our own lives, we will always remember the fun, the faces, and the experiences that made SHS Our School.

Pat Wilson finds working in the junior stand enjoyable. The Devil Made Me Do lt might represent the driving force behind those busy juniors, but it was also appropriately chosen as the theme for their second place Homecoming float. Being a junior is work - work on the float, work on the Tip-off Dance, work in the stands, work on Prom , but it also means privileges - the privilege to use the student lounge and to look down on the under- classmen as inferior beings. Your Junior year leaves you much to remember, shiny new class rings, Constitution grades, dirty fingernails from cleaning the Junior stand . . but most of all the anticipation that you are now going to be seniors and the class of '72 will reign. You have but one year left.

Yes, it really feels great not to be classified as a greenie anymore. We showed off our school spirit by creating the third place float, Put a Bulldog in your tank. We began to think of our future as the upperclassmen of SHS when we ordered our class rings, planned money making ideas for our class and got ideas for our futures at Career Day. Those upper- classmen finally learned who the class of '7 3 was as the spotlight was focused on us as waiters and waitresses at the Junior- Senior Prom. We cannot wait until next year when we can work in the junior stand, host the prom, go to the student lounge, and finally be upper- classmen.

It's your school. By the time you have learned to get to your classes on time, where your classes are, the difference between students, teachers, and upperclassmen, and that the office is not really a place you have to avoid, suddenly you have not only graduated to the rank of sophomore, you have become a permanent fixture of SHS. Now that your first year has ended, you have had embarrassing and yet good memories of what only freshmen would do - your first homecoming float entitled Get the Red Out, and that moment when you realize that you have only three years left to fill with fun and work at Sparta High.

Chilled Fans Equal Football When the football season began, it seemed the only people involved were the coaches and players, practicing, scrimmaging, getting into conditions, and waiting for the first gridiron contest. After beat- ing Benton in the first game, the players felt more secure as the tension of the first game was relieved. But tension came to other factions of the student body. The band who, under the leadership of an eager director, worked hard to prepare for the home games. As well as the band, the ever -spirited cheerleaders and the newly formed Spartanettes drill team made preparations for the home gridiron con- tests. Finally, the fans who have anticipated this fall sport brave the wind and cold to cheer their favorites on. Coaches, players, band, cheerleaders :lrill team, and fans make football the favorite fall sport. Team support comes from the bench ual li 4 O H Gridiron Team Places Fifih in Conference Sparta's football Bulldogs began what appeared to be a great season with early victories over the Benton Rangers and the DuQuoin Indians. Extremely tough 'r ' at competition cropped up in the forms of Murphysboro, Nashville, and Highland, Both Nashville and Highland were rated in the top fifteen teams in the state. Sparta held Nashville to only six points, the Hornets lowest score all season and twice scored against Highland. Further into the season the injury ridden Bulldogs lost to Pinckneyville by one point in the last few seconds of the game. However they were able to pick up a win against Anna to bring their total number of wins to three while losing to Chester in the final game putting the Bulldogs fifth in the Southwest Egyptian Conference. Good blocking can sometimes mean victory or defeat. FRONT ROW: Slavens, Pigg, Robison, Walker, Smith, Levy, Davis, Henry. ROW 2: Batton, Lindsey, Chunn, Roberson, Yearian, Theobald, Blind, Peck.

Fresh-Soph Teams Qigmied bg Opponents Both the freshman and sophomore football teams this year proved to be disappointing although the sophomores began with three victories over Chester, Anna, DuQuoin and at this point in the season the future was bright. Following a disappointing loss to Mater Dei, the young Bulldogs were soundly defeated by a strong Murphysboro team 56 -6. Nashville squeaked by 14-12 and the Pinckneyville Panthers won 20-12, thus, the season closed with a 3-4 record. While the sophomores began well, the freshman foot- ball squad did not. Scoring only three touchdowns the whole season, their final record was 0-6. The widest margin was the 44-6 score made by DuQuoin while the Bulldogs managed to keep Pinckneyville to only six points.

Bulldog Roundballers Fall Qhori of Mark The Bulldogs had a hard time getting it all together this season With a conference record of 7-5 the Bulldogs showed that if they fought hard, they could win. This determination was shown in com- petition against the defeated Chester, Anna, Pinkneyville and Mur- physburo teams. At the Edwardsville tourney, where the Bulldogs scored their first Victory, they secured the 4th place consolation prize At out own Midwinter Classic, the Bulldogs won the 4th place trophy and in the conference games that followed they won 3rd. The Bull- dogs worked hard this year as a team under Coach DeBose's guidance. But credit needs to also go to Bob Pease, Leon Davis, and Bruce Han- na for their work as managers of this year's team.

The secret to suc- cess was the basic excellence of each player with no superstar in the limelight. Each and every member was dedicated to patience, hard work, and persever- ence. Lengthen that stride is a familiar phrase to cross-country runners, Indeed, many do just as Coach Bradley tells them , which is why the team is so strong. Even though several of the stronger runners did not participate this year many new faces were present to take their places. Coach Bradley can look forward to many prosperous years in the future with a strong group of freshmen and sophomores who are very fond of the sport. Golf Scoreboard Won 9. Losi O OPPONENT SHS OP.

This loyal cry of the cheerleaders spurred the team to try harder as the re- frain was picked up, multiplied and echoed from the stands. With much to be proud of and to remember, the cheerleaders can look back to camp at Illinois State University where they received three excellent and one superior rating. They can also reflect on the numerous pep skits they presented to the student body and on Spirit Week when Beat the Ranger Day, Grub Day, Blue Band Day, King Strong Arms, and a bonfire filled a busy week. Brightened by new shoes and pompoms, the familiar blue and white suits of the cheerleaders seemed ver much alive as well Y they should because they were filled with fourteen spirit-happy girls. mr 3, M' QW' Amid balloons and crepe paper, the cheerleaders ride in the Homecoming Parade.

The past season was no exception since the thinclads won all five of their triangular meets, three of their four duals, and second place in the District meet at Centralia. Perhaps the only disappointment of the season came when the Bulldogs, after winning five straight conference championships, were defeated by a strong Murphysboro team. While the varsity was being relegated to second place, the freshmen- sophomores easily won the conference championship, giving Coach Bradley much to look forward to next season when Sparta will once again have the potential to win a conference title. Mark Kloth strains as he puts the shot. John Henry clears the ten foot mark in the pole vault event. 109 0 Ball Team Loses bg Lack of Experience With the coming of spring, comes the sounds of cleats, the popping of leather, and the cracking of wood. This is the time of the year when baseball begins as one of the favorite sports at SHS. Last year the Base- ball Bulldogs dropped eleven out of fourteen games. The three wins came over Chester, Pinckneyville, and Nashville. Sophomores dominated the team with ten representatives. Due to the lack of experienced players, the team was unable to put together a winning combina- tion. Because underclassmen were used, these players gained good experience which will, hopefully, be an asset to their next season.

P E Teaches Qiudenls Basic Physical Skills The physical education program of Sparta High School is developed to interest all students. By participating in a variety of activities, both boys and girls get a chance to exhibit their special talents in various physical activi- ties. Students are taught the basic skills and regulations of such co-educational sports as basketball, softball, and soccer. Gymnastics offers the chance for a student to be creative and develop co-ordination and self-confidence. Physical fitness programs help increase endurance and strength. One of the basic purposes of the physical edu- cation program at SHS is to help studems learn to co- operate in a group, develop the quality of good sportsman- ship and learn to get along with others.

Those special persons who dedicate both time and energy to this profession are seldom fully appreciated by their students. Too often teachers are stereotyped as people who were poured into the same mold and who came out as com- puter-programmed machines. But teachers' personalities are as different as the zodiac signs they were born under. With representatives of all twelve signs on the faculty, SHS has a teaching staff that is as diversified as the subjects they teach. Sharing skills, knowledge, and advice in class and in extra- curricular activities is the vital role adopted by the teachers of our school. - Q .Eg .Narita - ' OPPOSITE PAGE, TOP: Teaching must always center itself on the individual student.

Spring was also the time to plant the seeds the FFA sold - another money- earning proj- ect that showed the productivity of the club. The FFA was also the host for the December 5, 1970 Sectional Grain Show held at SHS. Eighteen Area schools participated in the two hour show, which ranked winners in an A, B, C, and D system. Several contestants from Sparta received A ratings. l J Regal Game of Chess Forms New SHS Club Checkmate! Another player concedes defeat to his opponent. ls it surprising that in Sparta High School there would be students fascinated by this time honored game? The newly formed Chess Club of eleven mem- bers provided for anyone the chance for learning the game, for organizing tournaments within the school. Club members organized a round robin tournament to establish ratings and a school champion. Tentative plans included purchasing chess sets and time clocks and setting up an inter-scholastic chess program of competition with neighboring schools.

Top ticket seller Mike Fox received a watch and second place seller John Pillers won a psyche- delic light machine. Club members who sold fifteen or more tickets received celebrity posters. Previous members of the club initiated new members chosen from athletes who lettered in basketball, track, baseball, golf, football, and cross country.

Pre-Medios Highlighfed bg Guest Speakers Hideavering to acquaint members with the different fields of medical careers, the Pre-Medios traveled to Anna State Hospital to tour some of the wards and the research laboratory. This group added to the local Christmas spirit by decorating a tree at Krisby Shelter Home and by making tray favors for the Sparta Hospital. Each meet- ing is highlighted by a guest speaker who provides information on his own specific field and the medical school from which he graduated. Many members also became familiar with hospital life by joining Junior Auxiliary and volunteering to work at the hospital in their spare time. ln the spring, club members visited the Missouri Bap- tist Hospital in St. Louis, Missouri.

Spartanettes Enliven Band's Performance A reason for pride - ! Besides a band that plays the latest in pop music, we now have an added excuse for attending sports' events, the chance to listen to our band. Of course if watching the game and hearing the band didn't attract you, maybe the possibility of seeing a bevy of girls performing as majorettes or in the newly formed drill team would? Inspiring admiration seemed to be the chief aim of the majorettes with their advanced routines and fire batons. Devoted practice and skill ensured the success of their every performance. The drill team has made a striking addition to the prestige of Sparta High by adding color and zest to the visage of the marching unit. With style and precision in their movements, the girls of the drill team add something special that makes their appear- ances memorable . The new Spartanettes become part of the ba nd . 62 Leader of the drill team, Gail Kaiser teases the bull in a Spartanette ring during half-time of a football game, N-45 !:...... Y -...

For the first time in four years I know the card catalogue is not an extension of Sears, that crying won't pay my overdue fine, and that all it takes to find a book on the shelves is to remember the Dewey Decimal System. Getting involved with library V f , Z O s. we 'HH UK work is the goal that student librarians have in order to answer the countless questions that fellow students present. Learning how to shelve and care for books, checking books out and seeing that they are returned , placing magazines on the rack, and storing old ones are duties performed by the eight student librarians of SHS . In addition, students help to design bulletin boards which are seasoned and point to current books which may be of interest to students. librarians are always helpful.

Selling wrapping paper and candles kept the members occupied while they day-dreamed of their awaited Christmas holiday. Ex- changing gifts, eating, and playing games entertained the club's members at the Christmas party. More than an aca- demic interest in the French language prompted students in- to membership.
