Maybe it ' s the grade school textbook answer: “because history repeals itself ami we must learn from our mistakes v Rut if history repeats itself anyway, then we can ' t really change anything just by knowing about it can we? So why do we study history? The study of history, just like the study of math and science,, invokes a process.

The PEANUT FESTIVAL Sounds impressive, doesn ' t it? But where did it came from? Seemingly, the idea simply emerged, grew and faded into grumblings of discontent, A major complaint of many was that “the students did nut get to speak their minds. This valid argument was the basis of much apathy in regards to the plan. Perhaps if more people had been involved in the formatinit and organization of the event, it could have bec ome something more than It was. On the brighter side, the game with Forest Glen was a triumph. We heat our city rivals.

The game itself was perhaps a bit disappointing; more so because the team made such a strong showing in the first half. But fanfare was the role of the night and the crowning of the queen was as exciting as ever — even if the usual class floats were glaringly absent.

On the day following the debates, toting booths were set up and the polls opened. Faculty results were in first, and their choice was President Ford. The students had a different idea! That smilin ' man Front peanut land, Jimmy Carter, emerged triumphant, a foreshadow to the national election.

For c ample, the SC A took an active part in planning Suffolk’s f irst Peanut Festival and its second annual Spring Fair. Et also played an active roll in SHS ' s homecoming by providing the homecoming final for the court and organizing the annual Peanut Bowl Dance. Again the SC A showed its community concern by collecting money to give to the Rescue Squad during its fond raising campaign, lliis contribution was donated in memory of Mr. Jack Jones, school custodian. A valuable aspect of I he SC A is its meetings which often include open discussions. During these meetings, concerns of students are voiced debated and communicated to the administration. Also, concerns of teachers and the administrators are relayed to the student body.

And that ' s whal happened with the 1977 Peanut Staff, I he staff began planning for their ' 77 summer delivery booh in August 76 faced with two negatives. First, the ' 76 annual had just been completed after having been little mure than abandoned. It was set to arrive at school in mid-October complete with a large bill, just when 77 sales were to be In full swing. i.Not so good, huh?) And secondly , there was not as of yet anyway, an annual advisor Well, time and effort somewhat smoothed over the rough spots, (like splotched negatives a broken light meter, lost film lost copy, a deadline the day after Faster vacation, etc4 and deadlines were met. Throughout the year different people ventured into Publications during 6th period, saying, “Well, what do you all do in here just work on ihe annual? ' 1 Anyone who thinks putting out some 16ft odd pages is a breeze is crazy. It takes dedication brain-storming, and, at times, sheer guts, ' cause like any other organization, the Peanut Staff fights apathy. Bur something about mailing off of finished pages and the receiving of proofs and thinking of that day in August when it ' ll all come together multiplies the negatives into something really positive.

The squad gut off to an early start on August 9, battling the summer heat C onflicts with jobs and vacations caused poor attendance at these initial practices. The girls put in many long hours to give a polished presentation every week; during football season, practice was held every afternoon; they devoted one day a week during basketball. ■ By that time, they knew the cheers!) The varsity cheerleaders sacrificed their own time for the players throughout both seasons. Vtuch to the relief of the football team,, ihe girls took water out to Planter ' s Park for their practice break. After the first game, the cheerleaders surprised the guys by decorating the locker room leaving personal messages in each player ' s locker. Keeping up a tradition, they wrote poems for the senior team members at the fast pep rally of each season. With Heeling hopes of new uniforms, the cheerleaders attempted to raise money by selling ads for the football programs and stocking Ihe machines in the cage. They received a percentage of the profits from hoth projects, which will he used to huy the long awaited attire for next year.

Instead of being faced with a deluge of assignments (all due im¬ mediately! «e were overcome by a tor¬ rent of returned tests, term papers, and scores of old queues. Exemptions were announced: then, re¬ port cards were computed Finally. graduation night arrived. After four years of hating our brains churn out material as if it was as easy to produce as pieces of candy, we finally received the object of our desire. The Diploma. It is amazing how one lowly piece of paper could be such a turning point in our lives. Hintin ' (hii 347 April Showers Bring May... Term Papers? Notecirds, typing paper , outline, thesis, typewriter, ERASE-TAPE? Term paper, research paper, final project—no matter what it ' s ended, it means onh one thing— WORK. The amount of labor necessary for the production of a couple of thou¬ sand words, neatly typed and hound of course, is unbelievable. Why, in the lime it lakes to write a term paper, a person could: t. Lay in the sun until he char¬ coal broils? 2.

The senior skit, traditional!) performed during the awards assembly on Senior Day, must meet several requirements to be a success. It must be fast-paced, ihm slow enough that the audience can un¬ derstand everything) It must he funny, (hut not cutting or down-right mean i and it must incorporate the talents of a goodly portion of the senior class C ombine these ingredients folding in a committee of five slightly erased senior students and two totally cra ed faculty members Mis well, sprinkling the concoction with a hand¬ ful of night rehearsals and slowly simmering for about two weeks, fa-da! Whut do you have? One big jumbled series of skits collectively entitled “The Not Quilc Ready For Anything Hass’ which, surprisingly enough became quite reads for Senior Day. Whew!

S«ibr UhiIi |,« I Mt ItaJkutta A Dedication It Is difficult to decide ho in a period of foul years has helped us the most. After all, there are many people whg have affected us positively in a variety of ways. However, this year in particular, there has been one person who stands out in otir minds as having helped Us by being there—as hoth a teacher and a friend. In a time when students are often labelled apathetic, you seem to realize that it is not apathy but indecision. We are all searching, each in our ways for the future, for new values, and for oursel ves. You have prepared ys for the future by helping us understand ourselves and each other better. From you, we have learned how to evipress ourselves, hoth verbally and physically. You have had faith in us when we have not had faith In ourselves. You have set goals for us and helped us to reach them. But, most importantly, in doing all of this, you have remained in much with us as people and as indiv id li a K And that is why we dedicate the 1977 Peanut of Suffolk High School to you, Mrs, Jo Ann Hunter Colophon The 225 copies of the 77 Peanut were printed b} Pelmar printing Company, Charlotte, N.C. Repre¬ sentatives were Mr. Rill Hash and Mr, A tun Parham. The cover is silk screened, and the paper stock is dull enamel. All copy and captions are in Times Roman Bold type. Senior portraits and underclassmen photographs were by Bill Hash and Mr. Alan Parham for Vicaro Studios, a division of Delmar, Photo credits for pictures taken to supplenient those taken hv staff members go to the Suffolk News-Herald The Suffolk Sun, the Daily Press. Gene Davis, Frans St a pert, John Fischetti. Victor Griffin. Bill Hash and Alan Parham, the help of Sarah Mbit with the S.C.A. copy, Kevin -Smith with the band cops, and Jane Fischer I i w ith some of the typing is greatly appreciated. Hey, Will YaSign My Signing Page? Hi there. Can you honestly think that you would hate thought you ' d been able to do all the mess we’ve done, if you ' d known in September?! 1 thought not. It ' s amazing that weV had time to become such good Friends considering the tremendous amount of work we ' re had to survive. Graduation will be anticlimactieal once exaim are finished. Not meaning to get too philo¬ sophical, I guess we ' re really at some sort of turning point now. It ' ll be interesting, to see what becomes of nil of us. See ya this summer. Stay loose.

The juniors are already thinking of themselves as seniors the sophomores—juniors and the freshmen—sophomores. Some of ils pulled off the impossible this year, combining unusually heavy academic work loads with extra¬ curricular activities. We pulled off a number of big events too like the Peanut Festival and (he second Spring Fair. We each experienced turning points, both collectively and in¬ dividually. Sure, we had our share of ups and downs but we all came out ahead. I W OnMim
