Parsons and Mountaineer Intersecting, Crossing, Joining at the corner, Uniting their different fabrics; Finishes . . . TCHS Insuring its product's durability, Supporting its shape for a Professional finish and polish; Fibers . . . Extremely versatile and strong, Comfortable, very absorbent, Very elastic and durable; Has a natural lustre- All making the Graduate of TCHS A Designer's Original. 3 TOWNS, 3 SEAMS Three seams So close in distance But seemingly worlds apart In almost every other aspect. So many contrasts . . . The First . . . Parsons Boasting a hospital, County Court House, fast foods, Pseudo-sophistication. The Second . . . Davis Neighbor to the resort area of Canaan Valley, Blackwater Falls, a variety of restaurants, Yet conservative, rural. The Third . . . Thomas Some call it quaint; One main street, growing, old and new, antithesis of the first. 3 INTERSECTING, CROSSING Texture more contrast, more variation. The First with several stores, expensive or modest. Sweaty, Busy, Noisy. The Second A grocery, a health clinic, commuters, small businessmen. The Third Nothing really fancy, small shops, up- by-five, homegrown tomatoes. TU-ENDI-WEI TCHS PATTERNS, PLACES The 'fabric woven together into TCHS, but how? The First ■ Pushed together, hustle and bustle, Pre-fab, contemporary. The Second Old, rambling, homey, Rural charm; gritting, grinding, the farm machine; va- cationers with cameras ready. The Third Nostalgic, a hodgepodge; Trucks roar by . . . TU-ENDI-WEI TCHS 7 r c 4 THE BUILDINGS Where are these fabrics made? The First Rough yet receptive, resilent to a variety of treatments; boisterous, bursting at the seams; suburban. The Second Easy-going, unpretentious, proud, relaxed, worn out, anti- quated, distinguished, country class. The Third B Rah, rah, Mountaineer Bears, Parsons Panthers . . . TCHS . . . Tucker County Mountain Lions. Enthusiasm on the rise, complex, windowless, contemporary, un- seasoned. TU-ENDI- WEI THE MACHINE New life styles, new fabrics, a machine to suit everyone's needs. The machine from which the seams bind edges and join fabric. Double-stitched, lapped, spec- ial tucks. A rather useless tool unti I someone cares enough to utilize it. To place each seam so that it reinforces or joins the other. This makes the similarities and con- trasts almost indistinguishable as the year progresses . . . TU-ENDI-WEI TCHS Is this the place? Where's the grass? Concrete . . . Where's my sweater? It's cold in here! No windows? Wow! Look at that gym! Hey, there aren't any initials on the desks! I'm glad we don't have to climb stairs here. The halls and rooms all look the same . . . Where's Room 13? So many new faces ... I hope they like me . . Gotta use the bathroom. Gee, it smells nice in here . . .all white and shiny . . . even doors on the stalls! I'm hungry! I was hungry! Not enough time to chew and talk at the same time. Hey, what's this teacher like?

Hey, Eva, turn the channel, please . . . Who ever heard of dancing on a tarp? Did you know the seniors get lockers for their graduation presents? A Japanese film company is considering renting the school campus for a film- 1'Return of the Fog Monster''. Like Dad always said, When the going gets tough, the tough get going! 12 13 Individual Instruction, Pep Rallies Overcome Consolidation Anxieties Mingling with strangers Becoming friends A brand new closeness. A give in routine, Really having fun With the familiarity of each other. Rah, Rah, TCHS .. . Louder! Louder! Learning to play kickball Sharing in each other's clumsiness. Beginning to laugh with, not at, each other's embarrassment. Dealing with teachers on a one-to-one basis Hoping you do it right when you're in front of the class. Rah, Rah, TCHS ... Louder! Louder! 14 Wondering how or why Mr. Moore knows your name Being disappointed when he doesn't Wanting to be noticed Afraid to become lost In the crowd Yet craving to be a part of it Rah, rah, TCHS . . . Louder! Cheering for the same team Leaving behind the old rivalry Forgetting past jealousies Losing and winning together now Collaborators in pride and effort Rah, rah, TCHS . . . Louder! TU-ENDI- WEI A V 15 Extra-Curricular Activities, Lunchtime, And Studyhall Add Sparkle To School Routine And Diminish Boredom Studyhall . . . Getting homework from a loyal friend Cause you don't have time to do yours Signing out a book just to look at pictures Sharing secrets about the night before Promising not to tell Daydreaming about . . .

Knotts ■ BOARD OF EDUCATION au ludy, Board President, Jerry DiBacco, Jane Burch, and Ronald FACULTY: ATTITUDE PROMOTES OPTIMISM In its efforts to serve both faculty and students alike, the administration worked to develop an amiable environment and an above average rapport between students and teachers. An atmosphere of optimism has a twofold effect: help from the administration has enabled teachers to do a better job and has allowed students to assume more responsi- bility. Constantly working to maintain an up-to- date curriculum, administrators cooperated with educators to upgrade courses. Besides having an active hand in cur- ricular events, the administration ex- tended itself through publications, a hand- book distributed at the first of the year, supplied guidelines to follow and a calen- dar of important dates to look forward to. Futhermore, a program of Continuing Edu- cation was initiated within the county for all teaching personnel which should provide special training in specialized areas of learning where county students show de- ficiency. prjncjpa| _ Howard Dale Moore V - Prin. - Charles Lloyd Secretary - Eva Mason TEACHERS REVEAL THEMSELVES THROUGH ACTIVITIES, PARTICIPATION Getting acquainted with the teaching staff at Tucker County High School, students learned that teachers are real people. The apparent robot sterotyped figures became three-dimensional liv- ing beings. Exploring their minds, in pursuit of their own interests, teachers took part in extra- curricular activities acting as club sponsors, as athletic coaches. Teachers found relaxation whi le teaching students ski I Is in the favorite sport. Off campus teachers enjoyed playing the ban- jo, skiing, cultivating plants, riding motor cycles, fishing hunting, jogging. 66 Billie Kelly American Studies 10 P.O.D. 12 Tom Klus Algebra 9 Geometry 10 Pre-Calculus 12 Rick Lawrence English 10, 11 Steve Lee High School Band Choir, Piano Elementary Music Stage Band Mike Mauzy Phy.

The students and staff have always been cooperative. We've had our frustrations but the students are taking it pretty well. The students have always been able to roll with the punches. Judy Bragg Imagination will make it work. It is defined as everything in the school. Tom Klus The reputation a student builds in school, the character he or she develops is something that wi 11 always remain with them. The students of TCHS should take advantage of their years here to become the best people they can. Linda Neff I hope the students will learn to take care of the building so it will stay nice.''

We the yearbook staff of 1978-79 sincerely hope that our yearbook, TU-ENDI-WEI, Volume 1, has provided you with much enjoyment. Perhaps it will serve as a reservoir of pleasant memories in the years to come. As the 1978-79 school year began the consolida- ton of Parsons and Mountineer High School, we have tried to use our book as a reflection of themingling of the two communities. The 1978-79 school year has been a year of transi- tion for all citizens of Tucker County. New friendships have been established, old jeal- ousies discarded, and the education of the youth in Tucker County has assumed a progres- sive attitude. It is our hope that students attending Tucker County High School in the years to come will support TCHS with pride and dignity. Further, we hope TCHS will continue to receive rec- ognition and appreciation from the people of Tucker County for providing the educational and vocational opportunities for all students. Finally, we would I ike to thank all Tucker Countians for their cooperation with our organi- zation and invite their continual support in the years to come. 102 Key Club: Gary Lipscomb, J. D.

By rtue of the consolidation and the tening of a new school, they will join rces under the black and gold inner of Tucker County High, jvelve of the 21 lettermen were gulars; on one of the two teams. Sedmock and his assistants Tom utshalil, Glenn Patsy and Mike auzv have been working with a -oup of 57 upperclassmen and 13 eshmen. Sedmock has been pleased ith the smooth transition that has icurred. “Ther e has been a good spirit of )operal.ion and we’ve had no •oblems”, Sedmock noted. “We ive a willing group and they have ;en a real joy to coach.’’ Competition has been keen and ;mock is uncertain of his starting neup, with the exception of a few ridders; who have established lemselves as starters. They include am Lipscomb, Steve Lambruno, Pat ribble, Carl Plumley, Randy trawderman and Scott Bowley. Bowley, Lipscomb, Lambruno and 'lumley are expected to play both 'ays. Others who are sure to see ex- ansive service are John Moran, rank Hoffner, Mike Kalar, Joe liBacco, Ken Puffenbarger, Steve fall and. Pete Michael. Rocky Nestor 5 slated to do the punting.

I won’t say how many games they will win but they will be proud of them- selves. If work means anything, they have earned a successful season.” Tucker County will play its first four games away ’from home, Sedmock explained. “I would have preferred to have played at least two of those games at home, but we’ll take them one at a time. They’ll all be tough.” Home games will be played at the Parsons field until the new field is available next season. Sedmock, Gutshall and Patsy coached in the county last season but Mauzy is a newcomer. A Parsons alumnus, he coached at Iaeger Jr. High School before returning to Tucker County. 139 1 •••� ■■■ ■ « ■II III III III •4« III ■■I ila ■■■ III M III I III l ■II III III Ml III III •II III III •II III III III III III STKVK LAMBRUNO Schedule TUCKER COUNTY HIGH SCHOOL iept. 1 Manmngton A 8 Pocahontas County A IS Mussel man A 22 Moorefield A 29 Monongah H Xt. 7 Magnolia A 12 Southern A 20 Rivesville H 27 Petersburg H 'tov. 11 St. Mary's (Day) H TUCKKR C OUNTY COACIIKS—Mike Mauzy.

Who at BEST knows the DEVOTION, the great ENTHUSIASM of a champion and at WORST the BITTERNESS of DE- FEAT. So his name shall never be among those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat. Tom Klus VDEFFATED Carl Plumley fininhed the regular wrest- ig season with 16 wins and one tie. The Tucker County igh School senior, who is the youngest son of Mr. and rs. Edward Plumley of Parsons, was the only wrestler of the 108 in the regional tournament last weekend, who 1 completed the season without a toss Photo by Kachi Davis Plumley adds trophy to list by Willetta Swartz Carl Plumley of Parsons became the .egion 11 Eastern Sectional Champion i the 185 lb weight class last Saturday t Frankfort. Plumley, a senior, has a jeord of 18-0-1. His record as the season closed was 8-0-1. Nine of the 16 wins were by pins, ne was by a superior decision. The 5-5 e was against Bob Davis of Petersburg irly in the season. Plumley defeated 'avis for the tournament championship y a major decision of 13-3. Plumley, the top-seeded wrestler in te 185 lb. class, advanced to the tour- ament finals on a bye (entitled to the D seed) and then defeated fourth- seeded Steve Trump of Berkeley Spr- ings by a pin at :48 of the first period. This is the third tournament championship that Plumley has won. On Jan. 3, Plumley won the Southern tournament, where he was selected the most outstanding wrestler, and he also won the University tournament on Jan. 20. Of the nearly 108 wrestlers at the sec- tional tournament. Plumley was the on- ly one to have earned an undefeated ord during the regular season. Plumley's next outing will come at Region II tournament this Saturda University High School, Morgantoi In the Western Sectional. Jeff C. of Washington-Irving High School the 185 lb. championship. The prosp look good that Plumley and Cloud meet for the regional championship Saturday night. Wrestling isasporttobe involved in. You are really the only person out on the mat and if you lose you have only yourself to blame. You can't say that it was someone else's fault because your the only one out there. Wrestling enables one to learn to de- pend upon himself and to accept responsibi I ity for his own actions. It takes determi- nation, skill, and desire towineach match and when you do win, it1 s a great feel ing because you know that you did it. Wrestling is a very good emotional sport for the participants and for the fans. The fans wi 11 find themselves straining with their home team wrestler because they are able to concentrate on just one person and not a whole team. Wrestling is a great sport to participate inand everyone wouldgain insight into themselves by participating. Wrestling is just a really great sport! 154 Carl Plumley STATISTICS FOR SEASON: Southern Tournament-1st place; University High School Tournament-3rd place; Sectional Tournament-3rd place; season-18 wins - 6 losses; I think wrestling is one of the toughest and most competitive sports there is. Wrestling takes skill. Most people think that wrestling is just getting out there and rolling around on a mat, but it isn't. It takes physical fitness of the body and mind to participate. There is no otherfeeling like itwhen you accomplish a victory. You get to take all the credit for your win as an individual sport. I feel that wrestling has improved me as a person. It gave me a feel ing of pride ana self-confidence, and I would really like to thank Coach Klus for spend- ing his time with me and my teammates. He has real ly tried and I respect him as a coach. I would I ike to see more people get involved in wrestling next year, the student body and team aike!! 15S TUCKER COUNTY MOUNTAIN irt 't b ■k:- ’ § VARSITY MOUNTAIN LIONS Mark Freeman, Sam Shoemaker, Dave Stevens, Mark Owens, Robert Spiker, Mark Jones, Ernie Gabler, Manager, Pete Michael, Rick Knotts, Gary Lipscaflib, Butch Fox, Steffan, Manager, Cofl §le Ruckle, J ticians, l JeTinqp Hott and M Devilder, Mike Evans, Coach Tom Gutshall r i T r I Dave Stevens Robert Spiker Mark Jones Mark Freeman Mark Owens Rick Knotts Sam Shoemaker Mike Devilder WMJi W ALH Butch Fox Managers: Mike Steffan, Ernie Gabler Gary Lipscomb Statisticians: Meredith Evans and Melinda Hott Junior Varsity Mountain Lions Manager, Ernie Gabler, Curtis Wilfong, J.D.
