America has been called the “melting pot” of the world, and justly so, as people from foreign shores and varied backgrounds came to call this land their home. As their de¬ scendants, we have inherited that spirit of individuality for which America is known. 2 . “If a man does not keep pace with his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.” As Thoreau wrote of the spirit of in¬ dividuality, so we the students of THS lived this spirit. Initiative and drive helped each of us through the grueling hours of research for term pa¬ pers, spurred on the one-on-one tournament, and helped during the tedious task of memorizing lines for dramatic interpretation. Rewarding moments of fun were shared by all as we dressed for 50’s Day, watched the foolish antics of cheerleaders at the Pow¬ der Puff Game, and cheered with our class during rivalry at pep sessions. 5 As the beat vibrated, day by day we listened to its call of self- expression in athletic competi¬ tion, scholastic achievement or group activities. As we strove toward our goals, we searched for our individual identities through participation in intra¬ murals, creations in art, long hot hours of marching band practice, and competing for the Junior Mess Title. The togetherness of the Senior luncheon, the dampness shared during the soggy Homecoming, and the coronation of the first Faculty Junior Mess Queen were all happenings that made times at THS special and were heard as sounds of our past that guide us to our future. We traveled down a myriad of paths; but however varied these paths were, each of us found our special place in the spirit of THS. Some strove to break this spirit, yet we only grew together and formed a special bond to make our spirit thrive. The Senior Play, the Student Council Campaign, Homecoming, and maga¬ zine sales all colored our lives and gave us something to be proud of and work toward. 9 Let each of us continue to march to the pace of a different drummer, but let us not forget the thriving spirit of individuality . .. ofTHS.. . of the spirit of ’76. 11 These days were our days— happy days!

Hours of strategic effort, creativity and determination were rewarded with “soggy” memories. Though the traditional pre-game bonfire was rained out, the annual parade progressed through town as usual. For the second consecu¬ tive year, the Junior class captured first place with their float, “Jaw ’Em Cats.” The Home¬ coming court rode in antique cars instead of Corvettes, giving the parade a nostalgic twist. That night, the halftime show featured the presentation of Homecoming Queen Donna Rowland and her court: Leianne Smith, Senior; Donna Johnson, Junior; and Tanya Humbles, Sophomore. Spirit was high, but the Tullahoma fans watched helplessly as their team dropped their eighth game, 27-0. Tradition was shaken as the Homecoming dance was moved to the Community Center due to fire damage to the gym. “Bounce” entertained couples until midnight. is p i Seniors Perform Dramatic Production, “The Crucible” Members of the Senior Class proved their versatility by per¬ forming the challenging dramatic play, “The Crucible,” by Arthur Miller. A cast of twenty Seniors worked for two and a half months to prepare sets, learn lines and rehearse scenes. Mrs. Donna Benek directed the play and was assisted by Miss Virginia Woodall. Helping with the makeup was Miss Christine Urbaniak. The Friday and Sat¬ urday night performances both drew excellent crowds. The play was set in Salem, Massachusetts during the six¬ teen-hundreds when the witch trials were most prominent. The dramatic climax of the play came just as the curtain fell. 16 m ft ABH 4 .. _i- .. ■ ' 4 ' • j „� ; S ; H r® 1. Beth Cunningham displays her insanity with Steve Parris in the forest scene. 2.

Guest speaker for the lunch¬ eon was Pastor A. Richard Smith, of Trinity Lutheran Church. Through a handwriting analysis, Pastor Smith stressed individual characteristics that make each person unique. Entertainment was provided by Coach John Rickman of East Junior High who performed his original bal¬ lads about his former experiences. Decorations were handled by Miss Trellis Northam’s fifth and sixth pe¬ riod classes. The center piece was presented to Mrs. Clara Garrison, guidance counselor, who has advised many seniors about their future plans. Senior Day Honors Class of 1976 19 Seniors Score With Impressive Intramural Wins Pressure was the name of the game in this year’s intramural clash between classes. Playing through the length of the tour¬ ney, both Senior teams finished with victories. The all-tournament team in¬ cluded Seniors Lee Ann Higgs, Tammy Jones, Becky Marler, Janet Nelms, Bill Hardison, Adrian Hickerson, and Bennie High. Junior members were Debbie Holloway and Patty Key. The Sophomore player was Dwight Peppers. Most outstanding players for each class were Janet Nelms and Bennie High, Seniors; Patty Key and Mike Riddell, Juniors; Robin Embry and Dwight Pep¬ pers, Sophomores. 20 I WmL k , ■r 19 P V 1 rT l i ' -a S ' 1.

Candidates were al¬ lowed fifteen posters and a four-minute campaign speech. The speeches were highlighted with humorous skits, songs, and pie-throwing. Presidential candidates were Randall Brown, Jeff Carlton, and Chris Tidwell. Nominated for vice-president were Danny Guinn, Christy Newsome, Della Reese, and Ernie Wu. Announcing their candidacy for secretary were Robin Embry, Elaine Graves, Debbie McBride, and Teresa Pulliam. Donna Johnson and Leigh Nicholson competed for Stu¬ dent Council treasurer. After tabulating the ballots, Jeff Carl¬ ton was elected president. Two run-offs were held between Della Reese and Ernie Wu for vice-president, and between Robin Embry and Elaine Graves for sec¬ retary. A narrow margin of votes elected Della Reese, vice-president and Robin Embry, secretary. Donna John¬ son was re-elected to the treasurer’s office. 22 1.

The Little Miss pageant was han¬ dled by Mrs. Blanche McClure. Extra hours were spent this year by Sandra Kidd, who delved through records to locate all past Miss Tullahomas and Little Misses to invite them to the pag¬ eant. Decorations were fur¬ nished by Rare Earth, and Miss Northam helped with the ar¬ rangements. Mr. Bob Crosslin was in charge of reserved seat tickets, while Coach Milner Carden took care of refreshments. 1. Rehearsing her steps and turns is Carol Hall. 2.

T. Hill, and all past queens during “An Eve¬ ning with Royalty”. Those winners in at¬ tendance received a long-stemmed rose, while Mrs. R. T. Hill was presented a bou¬ quet of roses and a silver bowl. After a lengthy deliberation, the judges chose from sixteen beautiful girls, Junior Debbie Gowen to reign as Miss Tulla¬ homa, 1976. Vanessa Kay Shelton was selected as Little Miss Tullahoma. Selecting the queen and her court were judges Miss Patty Comstock, Mrs. Betty Foster and Mr. Paul Vaughn. A setting of greenery, furnished by Rare Earth, surrounded the royal court, which consisted of Janet Tucker, first run¬ ner-up: Diana Parrish, second runner-up; Paige Hawkersmith, third runner-up; and Rhonda McNeese, fourth runner-up. 1.

Belles, Beans Revisit “Old South” at Spring Formal “A Visit to the Old South” was the theme of the 1976 Spring For¬ mal, sponsored by the Junior class. Mrs. Jimmye Lou Smith, in charge of decorations, and her art classes produced the deep South atmosphere with columns adorned with magnolia and ivy. Music was provided by “The Westside Boys,” a three-man band from Nashville. Mrs. Vir¬ ginia Batts, cafeteria supervisor, furnished refreshments to the hungry couples. A southern gazebo was the setting in which couples posed for their portraits, made by Mr. Robert Wiser. 1. Martha Tillman and her guest, Charles Harvey, relax between dances. 2.

I f « “Welcome to Dan Bland land!” echoed across the field, beginning each home football game. .. and now, here is the starting line-up for Tullahoma” became a familiar phrase at every basketball game. Tension mounted as one of our wrestlers held his opponent, struggling for the pin. Sports activities enlightened every day and every season at THS, thus providing students with places to go, people to see, and action in which to participate. 30 SEASON RECORD OPP. 14 33 13 21 9 13 28 GAME Riverdale Warren County Shelbyville Columbia Sparta Franklin County Lawrenceburg Manchester Fayetteville Franklin THS 6 23 6 7 7 12 0 7 0 16 14 riA 7 £ 32 Bland Becomes Wildcat Football Mentor Head Coach Dan Bland and assist¬ ants Joe Balthrop and Mark Hum¬ phrey were hired to direct the 1975 Wildcat football team less than a month before the season opener. The team completely missed spring train¬ ing and started fall practice late. Despite these disadvantages, the three coaches led the Cats to several respectable showings against some of the Mid-State’s top teams. The Cats suffered many bad breaks and finished with a 1-9 record. All three coaches brought an abundance of football experience to THS. Coach Bland played three years at Mississippi State University and went on to professional football briefly. Coach Balthrop played col¬ lege football at the University of Tennessee, while Coach Humphrey played at Maryville College. 1.

The narrow losses came at the hands of Murfreesboro Riverdale, Shelbyville, Sparta, Franklin County, and Manchester. Tullahoma also battled powerful Warren County and Columbia on even terms until the final quarter, while CTC co-champions Lawrenceburg and Fayetteville com¬ pletely overpowered the Cats. Finally, after nine consecutive losses, Tulla¬ homa took out its frustration on Franklin in the season finale, earning a 16-7 victory. The team elected Seniors Bob Rid¬ dell and Mike Stamps as co-captains at the end of the season. 34 O ' v . V A 1.

Three seniors—Bob Riddell, Mike Stamps, and Tim Stubblefield —received honorable mention on the Nashville Banners All-Midstate Team, while Stamps was the defen¬ sive nose guard on the coaches’ All- Central Tennessee Conference Team. Jeff Childress led the team in scor¬ ing with 25 points. Stubblefield had the most touchdowns, four, giving him 24 points for the season. 36 1.

The boys took second in a meet at Chat¬ tanooga East Ridge, fourth in the Old Hick¬ ory Invitational at Jackson, and sixth in the 28-team A. F. Bridges Invitational. Coach Milner Carden also led them to a 3-2 record in dual meets. In their second season of competition, the girls rolled to an undefeated regular sea¬ son record, a second place finish in the Old Hickory meet, and third place in the A. F. Bridges Invitational. Lori Szczepanik and John Stubbs were the individual standouts for the thinclads. Szczepanik placed eleventh in the state meet, while Stubbs placed eighth in the regional. 38 1.

The grapplers reeled off eleven consecutive victories and won the Shelbyville Invitational Tournament before losing the final meet of the season to Huntsville Lee. Shelbyville upset the THS wrestlers in the District 6 Tournament in Murfreesboro, but the Cats still managed to claim three individual championships. Mike Clowers, David Cleve¬ land, and Tim Stubblefield captured district ti¬ tles in their weight classes, while Randv Bur¬ roughs and Steve Adcock took second with Jeff Glass and Mike Ray placing third. All seven wrestlers qualified for the region meet in Nash¬ ville. Clowers took third place in the 112-pound division at the regional meet to advance to the state tournament for the second straight year. He lost in the state quarter-finals in overtime to end his outstanding career at THS. Clowers went unbeaten for three years in dual meet competition and finished with an overall career record of 76-7.

Coach Dale Phelps and assistant Mike Stanton also led the cagers to the championship in the district tournament, the first district title for a THS boys team in eight years. After losing to Manchester in the season opener, the Cats won eleven straight district contests, including a 46-44 victory over Shelby- ville and a 53-37 thrashing of Fayetteville in the tournament. They avenged the opening day loss with a 57-45 triumph over the Red Raiders on January 13 in Tullahoma. However, Manchester eventually came back to eliminate the Cats from the tournament with a 56-53 upset in the regional semi-finals. An inability to win outside the district pre¬ vented the Wildcats from having an outstanding overall record for the year. The Cats managed only one win in ten contests against non-district competition, though they played several high¬ rated teams on even terms, and finished with a 12-11 record. The cagers lost to Chattanooga Notre Dame and DeKalb County, two of the state’s top ten AA clubs, in overtime and suf- ered a narrow loss to region-champ Warren County in Tullahoma. The lone win outside the district was a 50-48 squeaker against Sparta in the region tournament.

Muse, Vaughn Receive Various Awards Senior Phil Muse and Junior Anthony Vaughn led the Wildcat attack throughout the season. Vaughn paced the scoring with slightly over 13 points a game, with Muse close behind at an even 13a game. Muse led the Cats in re¬ bounding, grabbing an average of 11 a game, while Vaughn was second. Both players received numerous awards and honors for their fine performances. The Nashville Banner selected the two on their five- man all-district team, and both made the district and region all-tournament teams. Senior Steve Laws and Junior Scott Dar¬ lington were third and fourth in scoring for the Cats with nine and seven point averages, respec¬ tively. Juniors Jack Comer and Darryl Peppers and Sophomore Odell Crutchfield also saw a considerable amount of action during the year. 4S Lady Capers Rebuild with 14-8 Record Coach Tommy Whitaker went through a re¬ building stage with the girls’ basketball squad during the 1975-76 season after losing all six starters from a team that just missed the state championship. With only two letter winners returning, the Junior-dominated Kittens finished with a 14-8 season record. The Lady Cats were led by the play of the two returning letter winners—Junior forward Susan Swink, who averaged over 17 points a game, and all-District guard Robbie Bailey, also a Junior. With no Seniors on the squad, the other four starters were also Juniors: for¬ wards Cindy Lawson and Lori Szczepanik and guards Teresa Kirby and Diana Parrish. The Kittens received a severe blow in mid-season when forward Tammy Hale injured her knee against Franklin County and was forced to sit out the remainder of the season. Though they did not match last year’s rec¬ ord, the Kittens still showed signs of greatness throughout the season. The high point of the year came in the final game before Christmas when they blasted eventual AA state champion Lewisburg 60-40. The Kittens also defeated Region 3 champ Hixson 46-39 and District 8 champ Shelbyville 52-47.

The pep band con¬ tinued to arouse the students’ spirit and en¬ thusiasm during pep sessions and basketball games. Members of the band exhibited their marching capabilities when they partic¬ ipated in the Tullahoma and Shelbyville Christmas parades. Band members also displayed their superlative abilities and tal¬ ents when they competed in the Columbia Marching Contest and a concert contest at Opryland, along with three other school concerts. Projects sponsored by the band this year included their annual Pancake Day and the Jazz Festival. A delicious chili supper was served to the chili lovers of Tullahoma and is anticipated as an annual event.

Is that today!” Sounds that are familiar to the creature known as the student echoed as we endeavored to meet each day. This creature plowed through examinations, term papers, and lectures. Tired, distraught, filled with lethargy, they attended football games, pep sessions, and other such activities. 102 Administrators Plan Reorganization to Include Freshmen Plans for next year’s grade reorganiza¬ tion to include ninth grade, repairs to the fire damaged gym along with completion of a sec¬ ond vocational complex and construction of an athletic field house consumed many hours of administrative time this year. Principal Creed McClure and athletic director Tommy Whitaker conferred on various construction projects as well as regular school problems. Kelton Garner, assistant principal, spent many of his hours administering justice to un¬ ruly pupils. This justice was often in the form of from one to five “licks,” although it was sometimes worked off by the student doing one of several jobs, such as picking up trash, moving tables, or other forms of man¬ ual labor. Mrs. Ruth Throneberry, head secretary, kept the office running smoothly this year with the help of Mrs. Dottie Culbertson and Mrs. Edna Overall. Their duties included keeping attendance and bookkeeping records and handling audio-visual and duplicating equipment. Ending a long career with the school sys¬ tem, Mrs. Virginia Batts retired after 22 years of work as cafeteria supervisor. 1.

Serving her last year as head of the Library Department, Mrs. Myrtle Burchett ended her career after twenty-nine years of service at THS. The library served as a mainstay of study. One could find various reference materials and news articles for projects. Mrs. Sara Ray assisted Mrs. Burchett in the supervision of the library facili¬ ties. Rex Birdsong maintained order in the study hall portion of the library. Aiding the individual in college preparation, class scheduling, and interest planning were the main functions of the guidance office.

E„ Driver Education Physical Education and Driver Educa¬ tion were both optional courses for Juniors and Seniors. For the first time, P.E. was not required for both Juniors and Seniors. Skipping rope, turning somersaults, and exercising to records were just some of the activities found in physical education. Creating healthy physiques was the job of Mrs. Christine Bettis and Coach Tommy Whitaker. After vigorous warm-up exer¬ cises, students went on to participate in such sports as basketball, tennis, volley¬ ball, and dancing instruction. With jammed fingers, twisted ankles, broken toes, and bruised shins, the student eventu¬ ally arrived at his next class. Silent and quiet, the gym awaited the next group of out-of-shape individuals. “The ‘P’ stands for Park,” was a famil¬ iar quote heard from the fearless coaches Dale Phelps and Joe Balthrop, driver in¬ structors. Students engaged in six weeks of classroom study and hit the roads for two weeks of on-the-spot training.

The de¬ mand was so great that several students were refused enrollment in these courses. Miss Trellis Northam taught three se¬ mester courses: family living, foods and nutrition, and clothing construction. These courses included instructions in cooking, sewing, wedding planning, fam¬ ily relations and various crafts. Ties, purses and other useful items were pro¬ duced by male and female clothing stu¬ dents while boys and girls enrolled in foods became efficient cooks. General home economics, a full-year sophomore course, was taught by Mrs. Laura Haynes. Students in these classes learned about child care, family rela¬ tions, and house furnishings along with foods, clothing, and crafts. Typewriters Click in Business Department Passing by Rooms 105 and 107 on any given school day, one could al¬ ways hear the steady beat of typewrit¬ ers in use.

During a three- hour block the girls practiced manicur¬ ing, styling, curling and coloring tech¬ niques in preparation for the State Board Exam and becoming licensed beauticians. Working in a simulated office situa¬ tion under the supervision of Mrs. Ruby Murphy, the future secretaries practiced to improve their typewriting skills as well as shorthand, record¬ keeping, filing, and communicating techniques. The novice secretaries also visited various offices to view ac¬ tual office procedures. 123 Girl Learns Automobile Secrets; Electricians Prepare for Future Auto mechanics took a new twist this year when Theresa Welch, the course’s first female student, en¬ rolled. Mr. Ike Turner instructed the students in the basics of engine repair, wheel alignment, and other auto-related problems and their solutions. Future auto mechanics could often be found replac¬ ing spark plugs, adjusting distributor caps, or checking transmissions. Mr. Ivy D. Smith, electronics teacher, taught his young electricians the principles of electricity in preparation for future jobs. These students not only repaired school machines as a part of their as¬ signments, but rendered services to their peers by repairing broken tape players and radios.

Students enrolled in vocational drafting were instructed by Jerry Mathis, baseball coach, in the princi¬ ples of blueprinting and architectural design. Working at elevated tables, these students spent endless hours drawing lines and geometric construc¬ tions. Mr. Robert Wiser taught mechani¬ cal drafting and shop classes. Students interested in only one hour of drafting are enrolled in Mr. Wiser’s class. During shop classes students were busy constructing gun racks and other projects from wood. Students departing the campus around noon were participants in the Industrial Cooperative Training pro¬ gram taught and supervised by Max Huddleston. These students com¬ pleted their class work during the morning periods and reported for vari¬ ous employment assignments in the af¬ ternoon. Mr. Huddleston also coordi¬ nated this on-the-job experience. 127 These are the faces of the future— the minds that will answer the questions of tomorrow. Our time is now, and what we once were will remain in our minds as we look back and remember.

Although usually mentioned in regard to college applications, the phrase held a different meaning for some— members of the publications staffs learned that without the financial support of local businesses, both the RESUME and the ECHO staffs would be unable to publish their works. We give sincere thanks to the businesses and patrons listed on the following pages. itnhitioi, The yearbook staff wishes to express its appreciation to all who contributed to the production of the 1976 RESUME. A special vote of thanks goes to the following: Mr. Creed McClure, Principal THE TULLAHOMA NEWS Mr. Bob Bowers and Mr. Mike F ?man, of Delbridge Studio, Murfreesboro, Tennessee Mr. Joe Coleman and Mr. Carlton Boegel of McQuiddy Printing Co., Nashville, Tennessee sjl To all those who advertised in the yearbook, the staff is grateful. The advertisers y support deserves the support of the students! The advertising staff woidd also like to thank Charles R. Marshall, D.D.S. Paul A. Bass III, D.D.S. Ho Kyun Kim, M.D. Seung H.
