% - . • Under the Stars Pisces, Aries, Taurus, Gemini, dancer, Leo, Virgo, Libra, Scorpio, Sagit-tnaiis, Capricorn, and Aquarius the twelve sighs jof the Zodiac — may not ' mean much t«f or play a tremendous role in the lives of some but they played a most important part in ours, the students of Saint Matthews High School. As mysterious — and in the thinking of some — as mysthical as they may seem, the signs under the stars extended their arms from the heavens, grasped our minds, oiJr feelings and our lives as in a clutch of possession with little or no • intention of freeing them. The sig v of the Zodiac found their way into our hearts as was seen in student togetherness, friendshfps and romances that took their daily strolls about our campus.

CREED I believe in the future of farming, with a faith born not of words but of deeds-achievements won by the present and past generations of agriculturists; in the promise of better days through better ways, even as the better things we now enjoy have come to us from the struggles of former years. I believe that to live and work on a good farm, or to be engaged in other agricultural pursuits, is pleasant as well as challenging; for I know the joys and discomforts of agricultural life and hold an inborn fondness for those. . . 47 KNEELING: Randy Trimnal, Hugh Rucker, Ronnie Rucker, Harold Jeffrey, Jimmy Hamilton, Mike Wannamaker STANDING: Clark Gaskin, Mr. Phillips, Mr. Dayson, Harry Byrd, Lemuel Daryl Larrymore, Mark Bates TOP ROW: Hercules Wright, David Earl Hampton, Ervin Charley, (Absent:) Melvin Favor, Stevie Ochinsky, Sammy Hills, Ronnie Martin Future Farmers Of America The aim and purpose of the FFA is the development agricultural leadership, cooperation, and citizenship. of SEATED: David Jamison, Roscoe Riley. 1ST.

A cheerleader is a special girl with lots of charm grace Not just a girl with a pretty face. She always acts friendly, looks sharp as a pin. She can't let it bother her if something's wrong within. It takes time to do things correctly, so patience is often needed. It takes obedience to make them perfect, so advice is always heeded. She has to be willing to work day night Or else things might not turn out just right. A cheerleader is a girl who has to yell very loud Especially when no one else does in the crowd. She has to keep smiling through victory and defeat, and has to keep showing all that fighting beat. The feeling of winning is certainly not bad. But she knows when you lose you must not act sad. It takes last minute planning for last minute cheers, Not much time for eating or studying or last minute tears. She takes pride in her team, for they're a great bunch of guys. And it's especially for them that she really tries. A cheerleader is a girl who when all the work is done Would be so very proud to say, I'm one.
