Presented By The Jeb Staff Stuart High School Stuart, Virginia THE JEB 1969 Volume XX T able of Contents The Year P. 4 Academics P. 16 Organizations P. 56 2 Student Life P. 74 To an outsider, THE JEB ' 69 would have little significance—a meaningless collection of pictures. But to us it represents a heritage we often scorn but would never forfeit. In these pages you will find a year ' s life. The whole story isn ' t here, only fragments to provoke a remembrance. The time for remembering is not 1969; what will be the past is still the present. But when we are distant in time and place, this volume will provide us with pleasure, perhaps with nostalgia, but always with a memory . . .

At Stuart High School, the students are presented a wonderful opportunity to encounter and overcome these challenges because our teachers not only spend many hours preparing their means of daily instruc¬ tion, but also give much time offering help and advice to the students by sponsoring extra-curricular organizations and coaching various sports teams. The faculty at Stuart High School strives through many broad curricula and a strong guidance program to give each student the best background for his individual needs. Four basic programs are offered: vocational, commercial, college preparatory, and general. By means of individual planning and counselling, the program has each separate student at its focal point. Individual attention is given to every student who Teachers Tackle Higher Degrees Mrs. Madeline Dalton Madison College B.S.

Because it is we who must learn in order to teach others, we feel that we are very fortunate in having such an outstanding staff of instructors. They have sought to expose us to a necessary nucleus of facts and to stimulate us to thoughts and discoveries of our own. When we have not understood, they have patiently reasoned with us. The administration and faculty are assisted by the teachers ' aides. They perform secretarial duties to give teachers more time for instructing.

In Student Affairs The Student Council is a student governing body which serves as the executive body of the SCA. The council rules in student affairs and charters all clubs on campus. The members, who are chosen by the student body, are responsible for representing the students ' interests in various school activities. Participation in school elections and the work of the the council provide valuable experience in democratic processes. The SCA has many purposes, among which are: to unite the student body for a more wholesome school life, and to promote loyalty to the school. In order to keep in harmony with the times, a group from the council met with other student leaders at Radford College last summer. While at the conference, the representatives attended classes to prepare for the task which awaited them. These classes were held on every phase of SCA work and student involvement. Problems of fictitious schools were discussed and solutions suggested as an exercise in student self- government. The social life of the school is also promoted by the SCA as the council sponsors the annual Miss SHS pageant in November and Homecoming in January. Council members prepare for Miss SHS pageant. As SCA President, Murray begins school year by addressing student body in assembly. 59 The 4-H Clubs are a part of the Virginia Agricultural Extension Service. The purpose of 4-H is stated in the pledge: development of mind and body for a more worthwhile life. The Stuart 4-H Clubs are represented at the annual Virginia 4-H Club Conference on the campus of V.P.I., the highlight of which is the tapping for membership in the Virginia All-Star chapter.

Composed of athletic lettermen, members of the varsity cheer squad, and managers of the varsity teams, the Monogram Club has a two-fold purpose: to stimulate interest in sports, and to recognize athletic ability. This year the constitution of the Monogram Club was revised, setting new standards of membership and providing an amendment allowing football players to letter. To raise funds, members sold concessions at basketball games. The money raised was used to provide athletic equipment, to buy trophies and letters, and to finance the annual picnic in the spring.

These are made readily available to all interested students. A relatively new organization at Stuart High School is the Student Guidance Committee. Members work with the principal and guidance director in an attempt to maintain a line of communication between the students and the Guidance Department. The primary duty of its members is to keep students in homerooms informed about colleges, guidance programs, and tests required of the students. Members are not solely concerned with college programs, for they seek to stimulate a vocational interest in those who are not college bound.

It was decided to attempt to stay within their suggested guidelines without sacrificing or com¬ promising the vitality of the yearbook. It was the opinion of the staff that the people involved are the most important feature of Stuart High School. That is why we, THE JEB staff, have sought a new approach to this book — to capture the human elements involved. THE JEB ' 69 is different. It required an efficient and hard-working staff, many hours of thought, and much determination. Through the use of new materials, new photo¬ graphic processes, and the addition of an entire section on academics, THE JEB has been expanded and refined in a continuing effort to improve. Paul and Barbara plan layouts for THE JEB ' s classes. Edward considers all the angles to get the best picture.

Six members of the Class of 1969 were selected by the faculty as the 1969 Honor Graduates. Those chosen were Brenda Smart and Steve Hazlewood, Citizenship; Lydia Adkins and Paul Richardson, Schol¬ arship; and Jane Hudson and Murray West, Leadership. In making their selection, the faculty judged the students on their academic average, their active leader¬ ship and service, and their ability and willingness to cooperate with the faculty and students. The JEB Staff wishes to thank the faculty for its part in choosing these students and to extend to the Honor Graduates of the Class of ' 69 our sincere congratulations. Citizenship Leadership Scholarship 80 Special Features Aside from the regular routine at Stuart High School, other interesting activities and programs are frequently scheduled for the enjoyment and benefit of the students. This year Stuart High School was represented on WDBJ ' s KLASSROOM KWIZ for the first time. The three contes¬ tants, sponsored by the Beta Club, made a fine showing as they appeared on the program for four consecutive weeks. The annual Hi-Y Christmas assembly presented both aspects of Christmas as Reverend Jim Brackett addressed the student body with an inspiring Yuletide message. Following his brief sermon, members of the student body and faculty enacted an amusing skit. I We were also privileged to have with us a couple who presented an educational music program featuring many of the stringed instruments. • 81 To the setting provided by the juniors, students and faculty mem¬ bers dined within the mystic atmo¬ sphere of Treasure Island. As the guests came ashore on that warm April night, they discovered that the cafeteria had been transformed into a sandy island. Upper-classmen, especially Chair¬ man Katie Key and committee mem¬ bers, who went all-out to make the banquet the brilliant success it was, will long remember those blissful hours. Welcoming Committee greets ' 68 seniors. Everyone enjoyed sophomore served meal. Band provides entertainment for enjoyable evening. 82 “Treasure Island” Enhances ’68 Banquet As Juniors Host Homecoming Night For The Wildcats Brings Victories Excitement, the spirit of competition, and gaiety dominated Homecoming ' 69 at Stuart High School. A capacity crowd was present to witness the mighty Wildcats march on to victory against the Woolwine Warriors. In the preliminary game, the girls opened their regular season of play by stomp¬ ing the Woolwine girls with a 52—23 victory. Highlighting the activities of the evening was the crowning of Homecoming Queen, Cheryl McGrady. Escorted by Doug Mills, Miss McGrady received the crown from Mr. Woods. The candidates were nominated by the members of the boys ' Varsity basketball team. The names of the girls were announced to the student body, who voted by secret ballot on the day of the game. The students, who elected Cheryl as Queen, presented her with a trophy, a dozen red roses, and a warm round of applause. Members of her court were: Claire Cox escorted by Bob Elder, Kathy Ray escorted by Rodney Martin, Becky Williams escorted by Gary Nowlin, Katie Key escorted by Jimmy Edwards, Jane Hud¬ son escorted by Ricky Hudson, and Nancy Adams escorted by Eddie Wood.

After a 20—7 opening victory over Hillsville, the squad was crushed 44—7 by North Stokes as Stuart was outmanned in its first varsity en¬ counter. Linebacker David Bullins hauls down a Holmes fullback from behind for two yard loss in the 28-7 victory over the Mustangs of Eden. In the only home game of the season, the ' cats returned to the win column with a 28—7 rout of Holmes. The next game was a tough defensive battle as Drewry Mason edged Stuart 6—0. Stuart upped its record to 3—2 with a 33—6 blitzing of the Bassett Bengals. The Buffaloes of Floyd were next to fall to the streaking Wildcats as Stuart romped to a 48—0 victory.

In the next encounter, Cobbler ' s ' cats faced the Rebels of Hardin Reynolds. The height and board strength of the ' 68 state champions proved too great however, as Stuart fell by a 50—34 count. The Wildcats roared back with cool, heads up play during the last half of the season to win seven while losing only to the Reynolds Rebels once again. This stretch drive was led on offense by Richard Shotgun Spencer whose 24.2 per game average placed him third in the district and sixth in the state scoring race. Top man on defense was Steve Hazelwood who consistently held the opposition ' s leading scorer far below his average. Coming through steadily on the front line were seniors Bill Goad and Preston Martin, while the backcourt was manned by Mike Curry and Terry Martin. Providing good depth in reserve roles, as Coach Cobbler kept fresh men in the game, were juniors Bill Cox, Clayton Hamm, and Richard Hazelwood along with soph Roger Hopkins.

The squad became the first team to grab the top rung on the district ladder since 1958. Long practices and hard work paid off as the girls raced from victory to victory. The Wildcats opened their season by stunning defending champs Woolwine Warriors 52—23. Mary Alice Byers and Katie Key led the way with 17 points each. The victory string continued as they played their toughest opposition, Blue Ridge and Hardin Rey¬ nolds. In the home victory over the Bulldogs, the Wildcats shot 60%.

A strong first five plus a very valuable sixth man provided a nucleus for a successful season. The six men were Jerome Foddrell, Lee Hill, Ronnie Haley, Carl Handy, James Pullins, and Jeff Wigington. Jerome was the top rebounder for the baby ' cats while Ronnie served as defensive specialist by guarding the top opposing scorer. Lee, Carl, and James were the big offensive threats for the team.

In victory or defeat, the fourteen girls who make up the varsity and junior varsity cheerleading squads injected a great amount of pep and spirit into the fans at both pep rallies and games this year. Under the guidance of Miss Jane Hart, they have given much time and effort to acquire precision motions and learn new cheers. Only these girls know what cheer¬ leading really requires— long hours of practice, leading fans in rain, snow, and in overcrowded gyms, and boosting the morale of students and teams when faced with defeat. A new team of cheerleaders was formed this year. These sub-freshmen and freshmen girls have added much enthu¬ siasm to junior varsity games. J.

Much of the success of the team can be attributed to Coach J. E. Cobbler. Under his guidance the Stuart nine stressed the fundamentals of baseball, and applied them in game situations to bring Stuart ' s sixth winning season. Due to a lack of long ball punch the Wildcats relied on their pitching, fielding, and base running which provided 130 runs in 13 games while holding the opposition to 42. Wildcat moundmen struck out an average of 13 men per game. Never did the Stuart pitching corps allow more than six hits in a seven inning match which they won. Leading the attack for the team was top batter Muarry West who had a .586 batting average. Another of the Wildcat ' s outstanding players, catcher Steve Hazlewood, was selected last spring to play for the Martinsville Oilers of the Connie Mack League.

Although facing a tough schedule against area powers including Martins¬ ville, Drewry Mason, North Stokes, Franklin County, Floyd County, and Morehead, the squad clearly dominated all their meets. Practicing every afternoon, the team quickly developed superior speed in sprints, endurance and timing in the relays, and strength and depth in the field events. Enroute to the district meet, which Stuart won 115-3-1 over Woolwine and Meadows of Dan, the Wildcats set new records for District ' R ' in every event. Under the leadership of Coach Pete Walker, the Wildcats progressed to the regional title and qualified 16 boys for the state meet.
