Taylor County High School - Sampler Yearbook (Perry, FL)

Text from Pages 1 - 240 of the 1980 volume:

4 TCNC — Up CW U$ Out Opened in 1956 for classes in its present location, TCHS has enjoyed steady growth in its program, physi- cal plant and school population. The student population in 1956 was a mere 600 plus and included grades 8-12. Today the student body includes only grades 9-12 and the enrollment has swelled to over 1200. The physical plant has been improved with the addition of a cho- rus suite, new library, guidance suite, G wing, B wing, physical edu- cation locker rooms and a brand new TMR EMR faculty. We’ve grown in many ways, but there is room for improvement. Progress with curriculum and physical plant have been imple- mented and more are planned. Pres- ently the biggest project is the reroofing of the school. Current costs estimates for the roofing are ' « million dollars. The school when first built was known as Million Dollar High School. When asked about building improvements, Blair Beaty replied, Lockers need to be prettier.. The general opinion of students is that improvements are needed on lockers, restrooms and desks. Although we are conscious of our facilities now, it is the curriculum which has the greatest influence upon our future. Planning now for the future is imperative. Curriculum has changed drastically since 1956. Limited programs with few options were offered to students then. To- day. the choices are so varied that a student may be enrolled in college programs, work full time, or simply study basic courses. With the Taylor County Area Vocational School nearby, students can better prepare themselves for the future.

Results from state and nation wide tests indicate a steady increase in the average scores of our students. This upward progress demonstrates student pride in their studies and their school. Mrs. Iris Dee Walker. Guidance Counselor stated, “I think there is definitely more pride among the students in their academic performance over the last three years. Our test scores are evi- dence of this. Also the majority of the students are more polite and seem to have a genuine feeling for their fellow students.” When asked about the curricu- lum and difficulties of studies, Brenda Benefield, a freshman transfer student replied, ‘‘It is much tougher here than in the school I left. I feel I. am really learning something.” Some students indicated they felt that no real progress had been made and some even stated that apathy toward studying will always be with us. Listening to students’ replies about curriculum made members of the annual staff wonder if the students had changed over the years, the teachers had changed or just what is happening. Coach Lamb related that he feels there is better unity in our school now and that school spirit has improved; however, he feels that student academic abilities are about the same. .According to Mr. Page, Senior Math teacher, the school has shown good overall progress during the past five years. Aca- demically, the students are just as good, but not better than five years ago. These successes can only lead to more evaluation for con- tinued progress. 7 Chechi uj Oublke BMbufees — FelSouiSToO'l Studies, studies, studies may be our prime objection for school, but the distrac- tions of pretty girls and handsome fellows can often succeed in turning heads. Winning the cov- eted crown of Miss TCHS is a dream of many students, but Kendall Walters made her dream a reality when she was crowned last spring. She became the first junior to win this school title. Crowns are great and so are sweethearts, but the warmth of a pretty smile, the sound of a gentle voice and the promise of friend- ship highlight the social life of school. All these abound at TCHS. Pat Sullivan, popular Senior, enjoys the adula- tion of the members of the Little Women's Club, for they chose him their sweet- heart. His school spirit, smooth manner and good looks all have helped to turn heads. But Pat isn't the only sweetheart, there is Janet Guenthner for the Key Club. Quiet, pretty and popular all describe Janet. But these are just two of the chosen sweethearts, but our school is full of many unchosen or announced sweethearts and dream guys. Pretty girls in the noon- day sun can turn heads easily as Emily, Tammy, Lori and Angela all demon- strate on page 8. Fond memories are made now for a lifetime of remember- ance. Checking out good looking people is a fun assignment. 9 Wonh flwb PCay P'toutok Fon Total hwoHuOMetct In these years we must realize our potentials and develop them to their fullest. We must enjoy their development and learn to use them to create our path for the future. The student body works together more and more every year to improve the school and the school's spirit. Activities focus on the aca- demic and the extracurricular activities for students. Brain- brawls challenge the intellectual minded, but school dances are for all. Talent shows, variety shows and dramatic activities provided entertainment and stage training for students. Bake sales show off culinary talents and provide finger licking fun. Clubs and organizations work hard to develop school spirit and 10 carry out service projects for the school and community. The Key Club, Little Women and Student Council annually sponsor clean up days for our school. In fact, the Student Council cleans the stadium after every home football game. Many students take pride in the appearance of the school. Junior Laura Williamson stated, “Some of the club spon- sors are encouraging their clubs to participate in clean-up days. They (Sponsors) are encourag- ing club members to become involved in out-of-town club activities which make our school more widely known. Senior Suzanne Morgan noted that some of the faculty and stu- dents are working to make improvements in our school. For example, Mr. Fike even comes and mows the grass. Students and faculty interact to produce stimulant class activi- ties and fun out-of-class activi- ties. Sometimes students and faculty alike escape the rigors of school environment for a walk in the rain, a race in the sun, or a quiet moment for reflection. UpStu iCj W Clubs CkouiS Our school has advanced in more areas than just program, physical plant and curriculum. Our extracurricular has immensely grown from about 8 organizations when the school first opened in 1956 to about 28 at the present time. Our school offers a variety of organizations such as: N.H.S., Student Coun- cil, Little Women and Key Club, FBLA, Foreign Language Clubs, Band, Majorettes, Art Club, D.C.T. and many others. Initia- tions into various clubs help with the promotion of school spirit. Among these initiations is the annual Key Club initiation every- one looks forward to. An egg is always their main dish. Other ini- tiations are also witnessed around campus and the partici- pation in these various initiations has greatly increased. Pep Ral- lies and Football also start our school year off with a bang!! There has been a constant rise of enthusiasm among the students and the competition between the classes has become immense. The spirit of TCHS is UP and it’s growing all the time. We can attribute this to many things, one of which is our greater participa- tion in organizations.

Some say up and some say down. Students and faculty had some definite opinions about this important aspect of our school. Freshman Kirk Coker said, “No, because people get up and leave the stands before the game is over. They don't have any faith in our team.’’ Senior Joe Rodgers said, “No, people just do not care anymore. It was a lot different when we were in the ninth grade. Sabrina Demps made the fol- lowing positive statement. Yes, school spirit is up because the classes have a lot of spirit and they will bring that up with them. Also, the band, football team and the cheerleaders are always helping in the Pep Rallies.” Emily Laura, a senior indicated that spirit is up because more people are participating in the many different activities of our school. Many students automatically tie school spirit to our athletic team. School spirit is more than just athletics. Many students indicated they have pride in the school because of other accom- plishments. Some students even stated that they thought that a more varied athletic program which would offer more different types of sports would increase school interest. Senior Tori Smiley said, I wish we had a gymnastic program. Freshman Kristen Fraser stated that we need more of a variety of sports programs for physical education. In all, it is great to see every- one checking us out, for only then can we move. M School on Sunday!!! Not really, but the halls were full of every- one decorating for the big home- coming week. Each class was assigned a specific section of the school to decorate and the com- petition was on. All this work was a prelude for the official judging which began on Monday morn- ing. Everyone came dressed in overalls since this had been des- ignated Bulldog’s best overall day.” Between the student cos- tumes in overalls and the hall decorations, TCHS did not look like a school. After all it was all part of Halloween Week, too. The Junior class took top honors for hall decorations. Tuesday was Dressed Fit to Kill Day.” Sunday best was the order of the day, but Wednesday was a true Halloween treat when most everyone came dressed in a costume or at least a mask in celebration of Mask the Eagles Day.” Everyone was out to really Mask the Wakulla Eagles. This surge of spirit continued through Thursday’s “hunt Eagles down Day” when everyone wore his best hunting outfits. With all this preparation, the Eagles were too quick and succeeded in stopping the best efforts of the TCHS Bull- dogs in Friday night’s game. Friday was a unique day of Homecoming for there was no school. What a mess! No skip- ping classes to decorate for the parade. Everyone was already out and the spirit was high. The parade, scheduled for one o’clock, stepped off late due to the cloud burst. All the weather did not dampen the Bulldogs spirit for the game that night. The pregame show began at 7:30 with the presentation of all the Homecoming Royalty. Queen Janet Guenthner and King Jimmy Link, who had been crowned Thursday evening at the traditional Homecoming Pep Rally, reigned over the many festivities. 17 bfotiU!CWmtt£j Royalty Ckoscw by Cetuiw5 Members of the Homecoming Court were Amanda Williams, Katrina Ellis, Sandy McKinney, and Shirley Williams. The King’s attendants were Mark Fraser, Dave Peck, Pat Sulli- van, Bruce Allbritton and Rus- sell Cannon. All are members of the Senior Class and were elected by their class. A new tradition was initiated by the cheerleaders and this was the selection of a Superdog. Each class selected its candidate and all week placed money in his money can. The catch was that pennies were negative votes. In all the competition was extremely keen between the Senior and Freshman classes but the Sen- iors won. 18 Pat Sullivan became the first Superdog. Other class super- dogs were Brian Nola, Bam- Bam Watkins, and Jerry Shep- herd. It was a new way of spark- inq more interest in Homecom- ing. New traditions seem to be the thing with Homecoming. For the first time a Coming Home Queen” was selected. The one requirement was that she had to be a graduate of one of the high schools in Taylor County and be attending the football game Fri- day evening. Each female gradu- ate’s name was placed in a large box and the Sheriff drew the lucky name. The first Homecom- ing Coming Home Queen is Jan Odom. Even though the Wakulla Eagles lit on the Bulldogs and wouldn’t leave, everyone had a terrific Homecoming Week. The decora- tions, the parade, the royalty, the class reunion, and the Alumni Band all helped to make a suc- cessful week. The loss by the players was 19 to 8, but every- one tried to forget until next week. Homecoming was defi- nitely up and coming in '79. 19 EWs U itii Damp Pa tacfe, FootbcMLoss, qm L Pictures clockwise on page 21 Chuck Ellison in pep rally; the football team in entry formation for Homecoming; Home- coming Queen Janet with Coming Home Queen Jan Odom; and Kandra Spradley with Superdog cans Pictures, page 21. clockwise: A Senior Homecoming entry; Perryette twirls for Homecoming; a happy the Sophomores’ Homecoming court winning float and a parade band in the 21 22 UOMSCOndl tf} Euds With Homecoming over, everyone could settle down to real school — that is the everyday program of learning, of exploring, of self discovery, and planning for the future. Seniors began to worry and plan for college. Tests loomed in everyone’s future. Getting accepted and receiving a scholarship were chief con- cerns for most students. The Seniors were not the only ones concered about tests, for the Juniors had to take the State Assessment Test. October and Novem- ber were very busy months. The woes of school did not end with the Christmas rest, but continued through the year. School programs are varied with many options. Presently Seniors are enrolled at Florida State University, North Florida Junior College, the Vocational Technical School, and various types of on-the-job training programs. The regular curricu- lum offers a wide range of choices for the college bound, the general education or vocational bound student. But school academic programs are not everything for the student. Learning con- tinues outside the classroom in such activities as athletics and extracurricular activities. Exercising and developing physical prowess aides in the total devel- opment of the student. Leadership roles are developed in many school activities. Responsibility and perseverence become necessary as students strive to accom- plish the curricular or extracurricular goals. The time, the efforts, the hard work are all worthwhile as students joy in their successes and plan for their future.

Everyone has a job to do and works at it dilligently. Without the various support staff members, many services would go unprovided. Custodial care and cafeteria services provide needed assistance for staff mem- bers. The rank and file of TCHS is a composite of many different types of people with many differ- ent talents. Beginning with the lowly Freshman through the Sen- ior, everyone has his goals and expectations for success. The principal, the teachers, the luncheon manager all work cooperatively to provide the best learning conditions for students. The students and the school staff function together as a whole unit. TCFIS is not a separate entity within itself. We are but a part of a growing community, a commu- nity which shares its common concerns. Support for school functions and programs is strong. Community support for academics and on-the-job train- ing is fantastic. Sometimes, we all complain about the lack of opportunities that a small school does not have or that a small community does not have, but when you weigh the pros and cons, we feel that students and community members have some excellent options right here at TCFIS and in Perry, Florida.

CONTI RATIflfl IO N4 PfcZttCifXiil f-fCtS Toughestjob Concern for the total welfare of the student body has been a pri- ority for Principal Dennis Fike. Since he became principal dur- ing the 1978-79 academic year, he has worked to improve the curriculum, student involvement in school activities and building facilities. His total commitment has won him the respect of stu- dents, faculty and community. Junior Kirk Coker stated that he thinks Mr. Fike is doing a good job, for he has been con- trolling the school with a tough discipline policy. That is the way it shoud be,” said Kirk. Although accomplishments have been made in some areas, Alison McNealy said, I wish Mr. Fike would do something to improve school spirit. I think it is down from previous years.” To Ali- son’s comments, Lisa Wilson added that she thinks Mr. Fike is doing a good job, but feels he could improve communications with students. Comments from faculty members supported the ideas of the stu- dents. Assistant principal Mrs. “Boo” Blankenship said, ”1 think he is doing a fine job, but I feel he would do even better if the student body would cooperate with him more. Despite all the accomplishments he has directed or made, Fike is not one to sit back and bask in glory. After helping to refinish the gym floor, he tackled the painting and redecorating of the audito- rium stage. He himself, feels that more students need to accept the responsibility of keeping the school clean. Pictured at top is Fike; below is Assist- ant Principal Mrs. Boo” Blankenship; at the top of page 29 at left is Mrs. Bob- bye Williamson, School Treasurer and to her right is Mr. Fike. Mrs. Donna Ansel is pictured beneath at her desk. At the bottom are Aides Ms. Rodgers, Ms. Richardson and Ms. Dorothy Crooms. 29 PcbCajfey Cuppcwts PfcutCtfrtiil The principal's attention has not just been directed at building repairs, but also at improving the curriculum. He would like to initi- ate more semesteracourses to provide greater flexibility in aca- demics. He is pleased about how well college bound students have been scoring on ACT and SAT tests. When we talked with other fac- ulty members about what they would like to see changed, Mrs. Ketring said, “I would love to see some new parking facilities. Also, we need to work to build more school spirit.” Mrs. Rollings said, I would like for each of us to be given an injection of more self discipline and respect, objectivity, toler- ance, cleanliness, enthusiasm and motivation, love and Chris- tian spirit and of course, com- mon sense.” Senior student Tracy Shingler said she wishes the Student Council were stronger and had more say in the school. With Mr. Fike as our leader, our school is bound to continue its progress. After all, the reroofing job didn't do us all in, and he has survived other slings and arrows of school misfortunes. With the guidance of our princi- pal along with the talents of the entire staff, this school is defi- nitely up and coming. A bright future awaits.

Draw- ing, American Industry De iiS Stay BuSy Keeping track of active stu- dents isn’t easy, but our two deans do their best. Mr. Chesser and Mrs. Curry are really the dis- ciplinarians of the school. They are responsible for the daily absentee list and writing absence passes to students. They can assign detention after school (which we all love!!!) and they even paddle the ones who don’t outsmart them. In addition to their duties as deans, they both teach science courses. Mrs. Curry teaches in the morning, and Mr. Chesser teaches in the afternoons. We should be grateful to our deans, because without them we’d have to go to Mrs. Blankenship! Woe be unto you. 32 ito GufaktftCfi We just couldn’t get through the year without Iris Dee Walker. She gives the PSAT and the Junior Assessment Test to over 300 students in both tests. As guidance counselor she also advises students on college choices, military opportunities and scholarships available. Mrs. Walker has been a member of the TCHS faculty for over 20 years. Prior to being in guidance counseling, she taught P.E., chorus and girls' bas- ketball. During the past two summers, she has sponsored student trips to Hawaii. She even took hula lessons! She also sponsors the National Honor Society. This past fall, she had two honors awarded to her. She was named to Senator Richard Stone's Selection Board for all academies and was named a member of the Educators Group representing 10 states.

She feels that coach- ing the girls is a challenge and is working toward yet another win- ning season. The girls varsity is among the top 3 in their district this year. The team has a past winning record of going to state their 77-78 season, regionals their 78-79 season and have been district champs 3 years in a row. Ms. Peggy Williams has coached girls' softball for three years at TCHS. She is noted tor her patience and ability to work with the girls. This year she coached the school’s first volley- ball team. Both teams have dem- onstrated good records. 35 Qevdofy QpoitSM Qpeujd Byfacb f-fowis {o CJass The responsibilities of being a Senior Class Sponsor are many and sometimes not so pleasant, but on the whole, the hours a sponsor puts in are quite enjoyable and very rewarding. Sponsors assist with the class trip, graduation exer- cises, ordering caps and gowns, cards and invitations, and many other tasks from college applications to job recommendations. Being a sponsor is a demanding task. It takes patience, perseverance, and tact. The Dean of the spon- sors is Tom McGlocklin. Join- ing him with not as many years, but with equal capabili- ties and endurance records are Glenda G. Hamby, Mal- colm Page, Billye Parker, George Franklin, Lawrence Hughes, and Jessie Webb. 36 Howarth B. Hughes L. Hughes Jenkins Johnson Donald Howarth: Florida State University B.A., M.S.

The average time that a Junior Sponsor puts in just for the prom alone, equals approximately forty to fifty hours. This year the Spon- sors have asked for a well deserved supplement in exchange for the hours they put in toward the prom. This supple- ment will be taken out of the money the Juniors raised from the magazine sales. These teachers are to be saluted for their devotion to the class and) the support they give for the prom. 37 Ufa f-fofcby f$ CofifectUtg AtwwkbCbds Al Jokela: Armstrong State College B.S..

She's been doing it ever since She says she likes arrowhead hunting because you don't have to carry a lot of equip- ment You can just relax. Mrs Parker finds these jewels by following the Buckeye plows that turn up dirt all over the county; she's gotten quite a few like this. Best of luck. Mrs Parker, in your search tor arrowheads!

The boxes come in many differ- ent shapes and sizes and their uses are unlimited. Mr. Vandigriff even involves his wife in his hobby. She paints flowers and other small designs to add another special touch You can also find his work in local stores. Isn’t it great to have a hobby you can profit from? 38 PotCwjftfcy Lu tcJi£0 iS MUgUQidjb! The TCHS faculty waited with stomach-grumbling anticipation for lunch. Why the excitement?

In fact he coached several of our present coaches. He is greatly valued for his experience and great store of knowledge. He has coached just about every sport offered at our school. We asked him what his favor- ite year or his best year was and he said it was 1977 when the basketball team won the district, the regional, and then lost the last game needed to go on to the final state cham- pionship game. To him foot- ball was also the best in '77. That was the great year when we lost the state champion- ship to Bartow in a heart- breaker 6-0 game. After all the many years he has served our athletic department, we won- dered if he has given any thoughts to retiring and he said NO! It's great Coach Holt because you are very valuable to all of us. 40 TCHS is blessed with a very competent group of Teacher Aides and Assistants. Working with Mr. Howardth is Mrs. Linda Bratcher, pictured upper left; upper right is Mrs. Doris Schram- mel who is our very able Guid- ance Aide, in the middle row are Comp, aides Debbie Addison and Cindy Karns and Library Aide Mrs. Wanda Cash; and at the bottom is Library Technican Larry Granthum. All of these tal- ented personnel contribute hours of work for our students and school. The yearbook salutes them for their able assist- ance. Hopefully, their number will be increased in the future in order that more services may be provided for our student body and staff personnel. 41 Cayt dou WoxkfiM At UaSuag The unsung workers who play a great role in keeping the school together are the ladies who work in the lunchroom. These ladies are hard working and very patient with their work. It takes a lot to stand over a hot stove for hours on end. These ladies are very success- ful in their work. They have a nat- ural talent in keeping the lines flowing so there is no confusion. After the meals have been com- pleted and served, the hardest of jobs begins. They begin to clean up behind the students and to thoroughly clean the kitchen area. As you can see, there is more to working in the lunch- room than preparing the meals.

One married couple is Lawrence and Betty Hughes. Mrs. Hughes is the sponsor for our active HA club. She helps pre- pare her members for district and state contests. Mr. Hughes is a long time Senior Sponsor and in addition to work- ing hard with them during the year, he has chaperoned senior trips to the Bahamas. Double enthusiasm and friendli- ness have won TCHS for them. We couldn’t do without them! Not every faculty member stands in the wings, as the Rodericks have shown us. Mrs. Roderick was sponsor for the Junior Varsity Cheerleaders during her first year on our staff. Mr. Roderick, teacher here for two years, sponsors one of the active clubs in the school, the TCHS Performing Arts Society. He directed their play for contest. “The Long Christmas Dinner”, and led the group to Jacksonville University, where the play was performed for competition. One of our married couples here, the McGlockins, work hard to provide extra fun and good expe- riences for TCHS. Mrs. McGlockin prepares the music for the choral competitions dur- ing the year. Singers from our chorus compete with great results. Mr. McGlockin, a sponsor for the Student Council, chaperoned almost every dance this year. He was at every meeting and always available to members for sugges- tions and advice. The long hours Mr. and Mrs. McGlockin spend is certainly a boast to our school. He is also known as the Dean of the Senior sponsors. Thanks a lot!

It demands aca- demic preparation in music, patience and perseverance in working with students and a desire to achieve greatness in band competition. Mr. Mont- gomery is to be congratulated for his great accomplishments with the band this year. Not only did they make superior in band competition, but they were invited to march in the famous Mardi Gras Parade in New Orleans. The Band brought home two trophies from this parade. One was for being the only band to march the length of the parade, (six miles) and still be playing sweet music!

This is Mrs. Donna Ansell, Taylor County High School's new sec- retary. Mrs. Ansell is a native from Miami and came to us dur- ing the summer. Mrs. Ansell is a willing and hard worker. She’s a great asset to our school, and because of her, the front office is most efficient and friendly. In addition to our new office staff we have a new math teacher who is also on our coaching staff. He is Coach Ken Fox, a native of Kalamazoo, Michigan and he attended school at Western Michigan Univ., the Univ. of California at Irvine, Free Will Baptist College at Nashville, Tenn., and presently is attending FSU and is working on his master's in administration. Another new coach is Seebee Ratliff who is on our science department. Coach Ratliff gradu- ated from Taylor County High School and the University of Flo- rida. Before joining our staff, he had been coaching and teaching in Mayo. Coach Ratliff teaches general science and is an assistant var- sity football coach, head coach for junior varsity basketball and head coach for junior varsity baseball. 45 G vUwCl! Tuv With GmJuuuOAUw is to plan and execute the senior class trip. Being a class officer is not always easy, for you have to try to keep many, many people happy. A senior year is supposed to be the highlight — the best that anyone could ever dream of. To most people this is the job of the class officers. Those elected to serve have made great efforts to truly serve the entire class. The greatest job for the officers Leading the class as President was Katrina Ellis who left in Janu- ary to enter FSU. Assuming the responsibilities of the Presidency was Amanda Williams who was elected Vice President. Both offi- cers have contributed of their tal- ents and skills. Katrina got the class started and then Amanda executed the projects. Supporting and working with these two were Secretary Joy Muenzmay and Treasurer Scar- lett Denman. Joy sent hours try- ing to keep up with all the points people earned.

Scarlett tried valiantly to keep up with the money and assist Joy and Amanda with the meetings. In all these officers are to be con- gratulated for the hours of devoted service they have given the class. They realized that being Senior Officers means more than just getting your picture in the year- book one more time. Ricky Abercrumbie — Football, NHS, Track, Baseball, Band.

Two favor- ites are Ann Marie Bassett and Mark Fraser. Mark said It is an honor to be chosen, but I think just about everyone in the senior class could have been chosen. Tenth grade was my favorite year. I met Ann Marie that year, and many new good friends. My senior year will also be equally great, because the basketball team will win the STATE CHAM- PIONSHIP!!! After graduation I will go to college and major in Business Administration. Ann Marie was equally happy at the results of the winners. She said It was an honor for me to be chosen senior favorite because I was elected by my classmates. I really had no favorite year, it was all great!

I am also planning to tour England and Europe with the Collegiate Wind Bands. We also talked with Tammy Neal and asked her how she felt about being picked as a Senior Favorite.

Each homeroom nominated a candidate for each grade and those participating were fresh- man Jerry Sheffield, sophomore Bam Bam Watkins, Junior Brain Nola and senior Pat Sullivan. The way the Superdog was chosen was to put silver coins in the can for your favorite super- dog, and to put pennies in your opponents’ cans. Pennies were negative points and silver was positive points. The seniors seemed to be lagging, but on the last day, Stan Wilcox with the help of a few other seniors con- tributed 3800 pennies plus over 20 dollars in silver. That made our Pat the real SUPERDOG.

It all began early Fri- day morning when the Seniors left TCHS aboard Greyhound buses bound for Miami. All the months of hard work and frustra- tion were really worth it. Hours were spent by seniors in the straw market arguing for good prices, but more fun was the hours skiing in the clear blue- green water and lying on the beaches. For the more venture- some, there was Paradise Island and all of its treats, but most everyone enjoyed the ship more than anything. It all ended too soon, when everyone had to return to the ship by Sunday afternoon to sail to Miami. Although it seemed all too brief, memories will last forever. The sun, sand and fhe trinkets for memories will remind us all again, and again of these fun filled days of adventure. Oenior Directory Chuck Gandy: Football, Track, Chorus. Mellissa George.

We finally won the Spirit competition in the pep rally. It was fun yelling and screaming for our bulldogs, but it was hard work. The biggest competition for the senior class this year seemed to be the upstart fresh- man class. Everywhere we looked a freshman was in com- petition with one of us. It was a challenge, one we really needed. If we are ever going to be up and coming, we best get it now. More than anything, we worked together for our Homecoming, even though we did not get first place in all the contests. Spirit wasn't something we showed only at pep rallies, it was something that went everywhere for us. The Seniors in the band boosted spirit and the class. Tak- ing the time to make a face and to come to a basketball game were all part of our year. Looking back now we can stop and remember the good and the bad. Some of the bad were all the basketball games that no one ever seemed to come to, but then, all at once the gym was full. Our team with its terrific seniors were great on the court and in the classroom. The cheering, the yelling, the studying, the planning, and the crying are all recorded for us and will be forever remembered. Lost loves, broken friendships, new goals, new friends, infatuations, fights and making up. In all it has been a great year, one always to remember Pictured in the pictures top to bottom are John and Mark with the Spirit Stick.

Underclassmen, believe us, it’s one of the best Senior privi- leges you will ever get. Congrat- ulations Seniors! The pictures turned out great! It took a lot of effort and hard work to get at the top of the lad- der. And we loved it! When we asked some seniors What are your plans after grad- uation?” we got these replies: Janet Guenthner: “I plan to go to FSU and major in music.” Jeff Granthum: ‘‘I plan on attending Florida Institute of Technology and major in phys- ics.” Scott Gibson: I am going to FSU on early admissions. Cebrum Watkins: 'I plan to enlist in the U.S. Navy as a Radi- oman and I hope to make a career of it and retire early and rich.” Clinton Bell: “I plan to enlist in the U.S. Air Force as a Person- nel man.” Teresa Donnelly: I plan to attend Florida and play for the Gators.” In all, most all seniors said they were a little sad about leaving T.C.FI.S., but were anxious about their future. Bright horizons await them. After all school hasn’t been that bad. 60 John Horne Barbara Hugger Lawrence Hughes III Lamar Hunter Edmond Israel Jean Jackson Kathy Jackson Bert Johnson ( Kim Johnson]) Q idcyi Di ujctoiy John Horne: Football, Key Club, NHS.

It seemed to make .ynv everyone have more spirit and helped the football team, so I kept on doing it. I guess I act so crazy because when I see unhappy people, I like to make them happy. When they're happy, I’m happy. Then every- one is happy, and I like to see happy people.” Warren said that after gradua- tion I plan to work a year or so to get the funds right. Then I plan to attend a Jr. College and try to play baseball.

She is looking forward to all the travel and career opportunities available. With graduation approaching, she says she will miss all of her friends here at TCHS. When asked how he felt about being selected a Senior Favorite, Ricky stated, I felt really good about being the people’s choice.” After graduation, he plans to enlist in the U.S. Army and train as an Armor specialist. What he will miss most of all about TCHS is his sweetheart Cynthia Flowers. Being selected a favorite means a lot to Cynthia. She said she felt she was selected because everyone likes her and she tries to help her classmates. The thing she will miss most about TCHS is the Fabulous Foxes. After graduation, she plans to enlist in the U.S. Navy and train in the field of Computer Data Processing.

This year was very special to me and I'll always remember it. After graduation Vince and Amanda plan to attend college. Amanda plans to attend Daytona Beach Community College, and Vince said either a college in Florida or his home state South Carolina.

When Dave was asked how he felt about this honor he gave us this reply: I think it’s great to be picked as a favorite by my peers since I have many close friends in the class of 1980. I don’t really know which year was my favorite, but I really enjoyed the first two years immensely. I’ve learned a lot and have made some very close friends. This year has been espe- cially fun as I have been able to play a lot of round-ball and I’m finally able to shoot a decent game of golf. After graduation I plan to attend the University of Florida, then from there I will flow with the stream of fate and for- tune. When Lisa was asked by our staff how she felt about this honor she said that she was also extremely proud to have been chosen by her classmates as a favorite Lisa is a member of the Orange Blue- print.

Being a junior is much different; it requires more responsibil- ity, yet yields greater rec- ognition. One major aspect of the “junior life’’ is testing PSAT’s, SSAT’s, ACT's and SAT's are all part of the curriculum of the college bound junior. Harder and more advanced classes require a great deal of hard work and dedication. The average junior’s classes are different both in form and function from under- classmen’s subjects. How- ever, the junior year is when many apply for schol- arships and are rewarded for their achievements. Class rings are a high- light of 11 th grade for they signify all we are and hope to be. The junior year is also a time when students begin to realize “We are a class, a unit, the spirit of 1981. All of a sudden class togetherness becomes an important part of every junior.

Decorations were out of this world (country, anyway!) and were of the oriental theme. Mrs. Ezell, Miss Faulkner and the jun- ior class really outdid them- selves. The Prom was done a little dif- ferently this year. A DJ was hired instead of a band. This appeared to be a successful switch. It was a great send-off for the seniors and a bang-up way to end the year.

It all began on Sunday, before homecoming week, the halls were filled with anxious juniors, working hard to win the hall decorating contest. They won it too, with their mini-replica of Dorsett Stadium. Everyone showed his support for Brian Nola, the junior super dog, by chipping in their dimes and quarters to the junior’s collection. The juniors exhibited their ’’fired-up spirit with a fire truck in the parade, and showed their talent by winning second place in the poster contest. The juniors came in second place in overall participation. One junior stated, “Just wait till next year, we’ll really show them just how good the class of '81 is.

On June 6th, at the stroke of 9:30 P M., all the Juniors (like Cinderella) are officially transformed into seniors (minus pumpkin and glass slippers, that is!) It’s been a great year and has sped by so quickly that it’s hard to believe it is at a close. Throughout the year the jun- iors have stuck to their guns and proved themselves superior in every way. Magazine sales, hall decorations, spirit contests, and the prom, all illustrate Junior guts and spirit. When we walk across the bridge of summer and step onto the firm soil of a new school year as seniors, we will have to prove ourselves worthy of senior privi- leges. We will show that a suc- cessful junior class can be just as successful as a senior class. Ready, Juniors, for the transfor- mation? On your mark, get set, GO! (and good luck!)

Sophomore — Web- ster's dictionary indicates that the word sophomores comes from the Greek word sophos meaning wise. The Sophomore year has to be the hardest year — not the lowest classman, yet not an upperclassman, either. Despite their mediocre position on the totem pole of classes, the Soph- omores had a real opportu- nity to come from behind and show their class spirit. And they did .. . They began the school year with high hopes and they carried out their expectations. Many Sophomores tried their hand on the P.S.A.T. test and several scored sur- prisingly well nationwide.

This year, though, the Class of ’83 decided to stand out and show that they are quite a bunch! They started their first year at TCHS on the right foot by being the first freshman class to raise money for their activities. Their spir- ited initiative had great results. They won the over- all Homecoming Spirit Award, the Big Mouth Con- test, the Spirit Stick, and came in second place in the Super Dog Contest. This has been a class of doers not watchers. Clubs, such as Student Council, show a high membership of very active freshmen. As one of their sponsors, Marie Ezell, said “They have the desire to become a part of the high school. They wanted to schedule even more activities than were already arranged. We have a high percentage of participation from this freshman class. Really setting an exam- ple for future newcomers, this class has shown that they aren’t the shy ones. They may be regarded as the lowest men on the totem pole of rank, but some of the top in spirit.

The freshmen decorated the hall saying what the bulldogs were going to do to the Eagles. They had a lot of spirit behind the Bulldogs. In fact, their spirit threatened all the other classes in the school. After Homecoming Week they were declared first over all winner for all activities. A spir- ited class, they have been.

This is the diction- ary definition of champion, but a “champion’’ is much, much more. It is a person who excels on the athletic field and off — in the classroom, community and in their relation with other people. The TCHS athletic program and its fans met these require- ments and more. From the cheerleaders to the coaches, to the players, to the band and stu- dent body, all of these groups contributed to the up-and-com- ing spirit in our school. There were many ways that the athletically inclined could use their skills — blazing down the track in the 100 yard dash, swinging a golf club, or making a bruising tackle in a hard-hitting football game. The programs were open to everyone — guys or girls, Freshmen to Seniors. To become champions required much work, practice, and patience, but it was well worth it. In a new seven team district the Dawgs had to work even harder, but they com- peted admirably in every area of athletic competition and proved that they were truly the CHAMPIONS that everyone believed them to be. Champions abound in our school in other areas than just on the playing field of athletics and this is the classroom. Stu- dents continually do well on national tests and in scholar- ship competition. We are proud of all our champions and we salute their physical and intellectual powers. 116 PtOCfeCA U laes QCdb Chs decd iS Spirit” was the key word tor the 79-’80 Varsity Cheerleaders and they definitely had a lot of it. In addition to cheering at football and basketball games, they organized the Pep Rallies and put together the Football pro- gram. During Homecoming Week they sponsored contests every day and started the popular Super-Dog” competition. Their pom-pom routines and stunts were a big hit at all of the Pep Rallies. The Cheerleaders attended NCA Camp, in Pensacolg, and received the Spirit Award every night. They were the runner-up Best of Camp and received four Superior rafings. They par- ticipated in the North Fla. Cheer- ing Competition in Gainesville and received Honorable Men- tion. They practiced every day during football season and it really paid off. Sports season may end but cheerleading season never ends. After basketball season they have to start again putting activi- ties together to raise money to go to camp. Overall, they are a very unified and spirited squad. Panel Pictures L to R Mrs Ezell, sponsor, Co-Captains, Ann Marie Bassell and Janet Guenthener, Sabrina Burroughs.

On a wet, muddy field the Bulldogs couldn’t get anything going on offense until finally late in the third quarter, when they kicked a field goal. Godby had two long runs resulting in 14 points which put the game out of reach 17-3. Oj CUHnebcuck Lincoln — The Trojans jumped out to a quick 14-0 lead caused by an intercep- tion and a fumble deep in Bull- dog territory. At half time find- ing his team behind 21-0, Coach Coker had a few choice remarks about the first half performance. The Bull- dogs came out and demol- ished the Trojans the 2nd half and won 28-27. To this day remarks at half time by Coach Coker have never been revealed. Mxstakes Madison — Even though we had the ball inside the 10 yard line 5 times, the Bulldogs just couldn’t score. An intercepted pass set up Madison’s only score late in the game. The Bulldogs record dropped to 1- 2. Rickards — The Bulldogs bounced back 20-7 while once again playing on a wet and muddy field. Rickards only score came on another intercepted pass. It was evi- dent that the Bulldogs had worked on fundamentals though a rainy week of prac- tice. £(iu£-Ou£ Live Oak — Our record improved to 3-2 as we shut out Live Oak’s Bulldogs 21-0. Playing in the dogpen, we racked up a safety and three touchdowns in the first half. We called off the dogs in the second half and have the reserves valuable playing experience. Bishop Kenny — Playing in front of empty stands the fired up Bulldog defense shut out the Crusaders offense and achieved a safety early in the game. Through a long hard battle neither team could score as the Bulldogs went on to win 2 toO. L o i Who '? Leon — The only bright part of the game was on the opening kickoff when we took it all the way back for six points, after that it was all down hill. Leon only scored twice in the first half and at half-time the score was only 14-7. However in the second half it was a different story. The Bulldogs were totally humiliated and by the time the final gun sounded the score was 40-7. Disaster Wakulla — Another hard fought battle resulted in another loss. The Bulldogs dropped their second straight 19-8. Through all the home- coming festivities the Bulldogs just couldn't get their offense cranked up. The sad home- coming loss dropped the Bull- dogs record to 4-4. 125 Bouck 0 i tkfc WuutuiCj Qh ak Quincy — The Dawgs tra- velled to Quincy for a district game on a rainy Friday night. The Bulldogs dominated on offense, but only put the ball in the end zone once, on a 1st quarter touchdown pass. We pulled out a much needed vic- tory and improved our district record to 3-2. Rgkfc Marianna — For the last game of the regular season, the Bulldogs got a little too fired up. We not only domi- nated in football but they also dominated the fight that pre- ceded the Bulldogs’ victory 21-0. Elks Bowl — The Bulldogs received an invitation to the Elks Bowl to play the Lake City’s 4-A Tigers. Despite our 24-0 loss, we showed hope for the 1980 season. Many reserve players got to play while the seniors saw their last game with Taylor County High School. P. 126 L to R down. Chuck takes break during mud battle Pat takes a minute to pose.

The boys thought of those first JV games, when they learned how to play as a team. And then there were those games consist- ing of watching, the big boys play rough from the bench. Then they became the big boys , the center of the action. This last year had brought along the feeling of pride when those hard games were won! It had brought along excitement, sweat, getting to know each other better. It also brought along the “two-a-days”, those long hours of practice, and the painful defeats, such as the Mil- ton game. The Cheerleaders' memories were also full of hard work, ten- sion, the keeping up of a smile always! The fun of going to Cheerleading camp, learning to act as a unit, the excitement of try outs”, and the enthusiasm felt at the Pep- Rallies were never to be exchanged. Through the players and Cheerleaders' minds passed this recollection of times that had finally come to an end with their Senior year. They knew they would never forget or regret them.

In one of the toughest districts in the state, the Bulldogs made a very respectable showing. With a winning record, they finished high in the district com- petition. With seniors Mark Fraser, Allendale Campbell, William Alexander, Dave Peck and Vince King, the team turned in their usual stellar performance all year. The team started practicing for this season last year. Several team members participated in a summer basketball league in Madison. By the time it was bas- ketball season the team was very polished and united in their teamwork. Fan support increased this year. The school realized that the team is really something to cheer about. One fan said, The sup- port has improved for the boys' games. More people are attend- ing the games. Boys’ basketball has become popular. The cheerleaders, of course, showed a lot of spirit, and this year the newly formed pep band added a little music to the home games. P. 134 Top left.

There were overtimes, jubi- lance, and heart- break.

Baseball is an unusual sport, for it is one that many people continue playing for years after they graduate from high school. Perry is known for its fine baseball and soft- ball teams. When one looks at the community teams, one can discover many former Bulldog players who play for years after high school. It seems to be a never ending sport for many. 145 146 EQJtoUfjblfi BctsebcM For the first time in many years our baseball team had a truly great field to play on. Thanks to the efforts of a number of concerned parents with the cooperation of the school board, a new dugout and playing field was con- structed. It was badly needed. This new field gave the Bulldog nine a new incentive to play even better. Playing against such teams as Leon and Live Oak took more than just a great field. It took hours of practice, sore muscles, disappointment, suc- cesses, anger, frustration and happi- ness. The senior players wanted a great year to end their baseball careers with. One, Warren Head, plans to play in college. Others indi- cated they will continue playing base- ball in city leagues for the sheer pleas- ure of the game. Coach Johnson encouraged the boys and gave hours of time for training and direction. The fel- lowship and the work together, coupled with all the fun of winning were very important to many of the players. Robert Williams, senior, indicated that it was one of his favorite sports. In all. the Bulldogs enjoyed a great season under the coaching of Don Johnson.

Walt Lamb is the coach of the team. They practiced every day after school to improve their playing ability and get ready for competition. Some of the tougher teams they competed against were Aucilla Christian, Tallahassee Leon and Lincoln. In their competition, all of the team played and the top four scores were counted. As in the past the team had an excellent season and made TCHS proud. P. 148 Top, L to R. Mark Fraser, Dave Peck, Coach Walt Lamb, Dan Parkey, Mike Mantzanas, Justin Webb, and Lundy Plunkett.

Ken Fox provided the leadership and knowledge to get a young, inexperienced team underway. Along with the Ath- letic Department he helped to provide new uniforms and equip- ment for the team. The track team is expected to do well in competition; not only in track but field competition as well.

During the past several years track has not been as active a sport as it has in the past. Efforts are being made this year to field a team and to provide training for all athletes. Track is an outstand- ing sport which may be individual or team. Most of all it demands a disciplined body and a disci- plined mind. 151 Societies Societies Societies Taylor County High School has been blessed with many clubs and organizations over the past years. At present there are approximately twenty clubs that are active. These clubs are designed to give students a vari- ety ot extracurricular opportuni- ties in which they may develop their areas ot interest. Many ot our clubs have become very active in our community and around our school. Service pro- jects tor the school and commu- nity not only better the clubs' members, but also their environ- ment as well. From projects such as clean- up days, school dances, gifts for under-privileged children, help- ing out other clubs around the community with their annual pro- jects to our own Junior-Senior prom, our school has definitely benefited from these societies. We asked numerous students how they felt about the various clubs at Taylor County High School and they all seemed to agree that as a whole, Taylor County High School is a pretty active school! Up and coming is definitely a way to describe our clubs and organizations. What we once thought was a bunch of people who only existed to have their picture in the annual one more time has actually proved their worth. This is just one more example of the great things our school can offer.

This past year the club started out with a nice number of new members and a brand new spon- sor, Mrs. Beverly Gibson. They worked very hard, and with lots of enthusiasm to read their goals of learning more about the Span- iards and their culture. A few of their objectives included bringing to school guest speakers of Spanish origin and raising money for a trip to that old Span- ish town, St. Augustine. A few of their money making projects were a car wash and selling imported candy. Pictured Counterclockwise: Front row L to R: 1st Vincent Steadman, Eliza- beth Shouppe.

A winner of a third place ranking in the Columbia Scholastic Press Asso- ciation competition, the Orange Blueprint competes yearly to keep up its standard of excel- lence. Published once a month, it is an eight page tabloid with advertising, editorials, feature interest stories and straight news. The paper is printed at a cost of $140 per issue: That cost does not reflect the price paid by staffers and Miss Faulkner in frazzled nerves and flaring tem- pers. Chaos!” is the one word description given by Sharon Ritch, reporter. But,” she adds, “It’s rewarding.” News has to be sought out, written and typed. Pictures have to be taken, posed or otherwise. 174 Ads have to be sold, also known as begging and coercing. All the efforts culminate in one week of activity per issue. Activity??? C-5 is a disaster area during layup week. Sometimes, filling eight pages with copy is a mammoth job. Sometimes, we need sixteen pages. Newspaper calls on every hidden resource that a reporter possessess, according to Toni Edwards. The final reward is a good-looking eight pages, a smile and an A from Miss Faulkner and memories of Get Away From Page One Copy!!! Pictured clockwise: Toni Edwards, David Carlton.

It doesn’t happen overnight. Days are spent learning how to create layouts, where and when to make pictures and how to write copy. Many new changes were instituted this year. We changed to modular layout with lots of copy. In fact the cry was usually “morecopy needed.’’ The creative aspect of the book could not be accomplished with- out the support from ad sales. The yearbook staff this year hit a record high with their ad sales of $4,555. By selling ads and the yearbooks themselves, the staff learns more about the commu- nity as well as good salesman- ship. The staff also learns about lay- out, copy and the developing of pictures. The staff benefits from all of this experience. The staff is striving hard to win an award from the National Scho- lastic Press Association. The yearbook is sent off to this asso- ciation for the judges to evaluate. Members are pictured from left to right: page 176: top: Chuck Ellison, Lundy Plunkett, Dawn Evans, Bruce Ratlifl. Bottom left: Joy Muenzmay. Bottom right: Lorrie Parker.

Everything had to be learned anew for almost everyone. This was espe- cially true since so many new ideas were tried. The great thing about the 1980 staff was the will- ingness to work, to try something new, and to hang in there when the going got rough. Sometimes tempers would flare, but the spirit of teamwork always prevailed and in the end we all learned to work together for the common good. Yearbook class provided oppor- tunities to explore personal tal- ents as well as how to work bet- ter as a group. Some people thought the class was an easy course, but they were in for a real surprise. The great thing was to see a book grow before your very eyes and to say when it was all finished, that I, too, had a part in writing and publishing a book. This is a special book for all who have been involved, for it is an example of the up and coming spirit of our school. No one is going to sit back and continue in the same old pattern when we have the opportunites to explore and find something new. The new is not always the thing that is best, but at least we have the chance to try. Yearbook has given us all the opportunities to learn new skills and new working and living habits.

Put them all together and you have the sounds the 1979 Taylor County High School Band made this year, under the guidance of Izell Montgomery and drum majorette, Kim John- son. The band withstood many sore feet and fingers, but it was really worth it. “Band’s really a lot of hard work but it’s definitely worth it. All the headaches, sore muscles and things you give up are for- gotten when you hear the announcer say, ‘Taylor High Band — Superior!’ After we got that 1, there was such a feeling of closeness in the band, a feel- ing that we could do anything. All the friendships we make and all the memories we have will stay with us forever,” said Laura Wil- liamson and Dawn Evans. The band performed in three contests and received a good rating, an excellent, and finally a superior rating at the FBA District III contest in Tallahassee. As a reward for such a fine year, the band traveled to New Orleans to perform in the 1980 Mardi Gras. Pictured L to R: Izell Montgomery. Band DirectorfKim Johnson, Drum Majorette; Christie fayw.

They also surprised everyone at the homecoming pep rally with their agility with their shining silver batons. They are hard, workers, preparing for ihe future_ I Taylor County Band — Superior . When this was announced over the loud speaker in Capital Stadium at District Band Competition, there were a lot of cheering Bulldogs.

Leading the major- ettes, was Denise Murray. They gave much time and hard work to learn all the different routines. Miss Ruth Taylor was the spon- sor for the majorettes and did very well at it. She has been an outstanding sponsor. She's younger, so she understands us better and we really do appreci- ate her”, said majorette Angie Crumpler.

Love that word1 The selling of ads is the backbone that supports the book Money supplied by the sale of ads makes it possible to make our yearbook bigger and better To quote our sponsor ‘‘The more money you make, the more color and special effects you can have Therefore, if you want a good book, you have to sell ads.” This is exactly what the annual staff did this year. We sold $4555 worth of ads. more than any for- mer TCHS annual staff has ever raised After dividing into two teams, the Orange team and the Blue team, we formed small groups of two or three people who went together to sell ads. Each group was given a list of prospective businesses and given three weeks to contact them The businesses were very coop- erative and greatly added to the success of our annual. The ad section of the yearbook is a history of Taylor County. It is a record of the businesses which were operating in Taylor County during the years 1979 and 1980. It not only includes the names of these businesses, but also pic- tures of some of them. Think of it like this, when you're old and gray you can show your kids what Taylor County used to look like. We would like to thank all the businesses and private citizens who supported the yearbook by buying ads. They helped to make the 1979-1980 Taylor County High School annual bigger and better than ever.

Another class has become the Seniors of 1981. A new decade has begun, a new slate for all of us to etch our names for posterity. Gone are the days of skipping classes, detention as our aftermath, smooches in the hall, wrath against all who came our way, and our free moments. To be a Senior once again is only a dream. The year went all too fast. Some have regrets, but most have fond memories. Memories of a great trip to Nassau and then the final night of June 6, 1980 when we, too, finally became graduates of TCHS. Have all of these years been pur- poseful, and will they give us the up and coming spirit we need? Most of all we have had the opportunity to develop our tal- ents and to prepare for the future. Whether or not individuals took advantage is for each to consider personally. So many times we are all too quick to blame without taking stock of our own shortcomings and misfor- tunes. 1980 has been our year. It has been a new year of build- ing and growth for staff and the building facility. No one can ever forget the acrid odor of tar and the new leaks that arose as the construction workers replaced the old roof. Up and coming it truly was, for the workers literally raised the roof and made it higher. For days, we walked carefully, looking down for fear of what might drop from above. Despite all of this, we kept our cool, went about our days and built our year of memories. Pictured above on page 230 are Mrs. Ketring assisting Roy Taylor with his art project; below on same page are two eager members of the basketball team. On page 231 from left to right, top to bottom are the janitors combat- ing one of the new leaks; Chris and Jeannie enjoying a moment of friend- ship; T and Janet; Our Aussie Jon cel- ebrating his birthday; and Mrs. Daniel surveying a new mountain of work at Faculty. 230 U BtiYowfldibuu Our high school days are over. All the wild pep rallies and proms and football games, Our growing pains, and good times shared, are moving on. And our up and coming new future, new ways, and new life are just beginnings. The Seniors of 1980 have become one of the past. The year is over. A new time begins. Life continues, on And up and coming will be the Dreams of tomorrow Days spent in the sun. Nights spent over the books. All are but fleeting memories as we look back now. Remember the good, remember the future. Look forward and keep only the best of the past. Let it serve you and not be a stone around your neck. The year has been great as we have worked to preserve it for you. It hasn’t always been easy and we will think of many more people to thank than we do how. It is later that we will appreciate, not now. It is too near, too raw, too unfinished. With these thoughts, we give you our best in the 1980 SAMPLER. It has been a joy to serve and to create memories for everyone. Joy Muenzmay and Lorrie Parker 1980 co-editors, 1980.
