Walterboro High School 1215 Bulldog Avenue Walterboro S.C. 29488 The Bulldog mascot has come to symbol- ize more than just fun and football. It now stands for all the spirit and achievement of athletics as well as academics. Band of Blue director Bill Young was swept off his feet by exuberant Band members John Smoak and Timmy West after winning their second state title. The first title was won in 1982. A Turn in the Right Direction Opening Tim Benson, Chuck Levine and Louis Manigo listen to a college re- presentative discuss the advan- tages of his institution on Education- al Opportunities Day, These two characters have supplied many teachers and students with an ample supply of laughs. Coach Rus- sel Polk and Greg Fennessy often joked around during fifth period journalism. Long-time friends Janis Blocker and Virginia VonLehe discuss the achievements of the students they both have taught. As well as being friends, Mrs. Blocker was a student of Mrs. VonLehe during high school. Painting a sign for the football team to run through is Bernard Kennedy and Duval Adams. Bernard and Du- val design graphics for sweatshirts, hats and signs. Bennie Hutto, Senior “This year was improved greatly by the interest of students and faculty in school activities. There was also a turn in the right direction in academics, as students endeavored to excell in every possible way. Sandra Reed, junior “Since we have Bob Pence, we have made more progress shown through more academic achievement and more em- phasis on school spirit. I hope the years continue to be a turn in the right direction.” Dexter Kelly, Senior “I hope to see more school support from students and see more faculty interest in school ac- tivities.” New Optimism Tempered With Reality One of the most important aspects of producing a year- book is choosing the theme which will determine the attitude and coverage of the book. During the summer vacation, staff members and advisors held brainstorming sessions for this purpose. A common thread that ran through all these discussions was a hopeful and confident optimism. The Football team, with it’s pack of returning seniors was ready for a banner year, the school was under the new and dynamic leadership of Bob Pence and the State's Education Improvement Act had sup- posedly been de-bugged. These were just a few of the many reasons 1987 was to be a turn in the right direction. But was it? Soon that confident optimism was tempered by reality. Competition was fierce for the football team. With several key piayers either injured or forced to play both offense and defense, the Bulldogs took a beating. Although they played with the spirit it required to win they didn’t have the manpower it took to keep it going for four quarters of play. (continued) A Turn in the Right Direction Concern Brings About Improvement New Principal Bob Pence brought with him impressive creden- tials. Great leaps were made n areas like maintaining the school and increasing communications between students, administrators and parents. Another phenomenal task Pence completed was to lay the framework for a comprehensive program to improve the school in the future. The academic programs of the Education Improvement Act came together in 1987 with a multitude of positive results, but the finances this Act promised were never seen. At the local level, the conservative tax payers appeared to influence the Board of Educa- tion’s budget request of the County Council. Although a symbolic raise in taxes was passed, it came no where near what it would take to bail the school system out of its financial quagmire. On the other hand, perhaps the problems of this school year prompted what could become a turn in the right direction. Colleton County voters became concerned enough about the school sys- tems financial crisis to provide a more innovative group of repre- sentatives to the school board. It appeared to be a mandate for county officials to do what it took to get the school system on track.

COMBINATION When one thinks of school, scholarly activities probably come to mind. Academics are the pur- pose of school, but the spirit, pride, and fun this grouping together of students creates is also an inherent part of getting an education. Parties, dating and going to the beach were just as im- portant a part of preparing for the ‘real” world as algebra, English and biology. High school brought about many momentous firsts that will be long remembered (ike the first date, the first driver's license and subsequently the first traffic ticket. Besides the things that occupied students away from school, a big part of a student’s life was the events that were school sponsored. During Spirit Week, students showed spirit for the football team while dressing as everything from Halloween ghouls to tacky Hawaiian tour- ists. One of the biggest events of all was the 6 Student Life Divider junior senior prom—a night when no expens was spared for an evening of pageantry and rc mance. As freshmen, students came to school as sep arate entities. As they slowly moved from fresh men to sophomores and sophomores to ji niors, they became a part of the school and th school a part of them. As seniors, students rea ized just how intertwined they had become wit- each other and their school.

Lace collars and soft knits made a strong resurgence in fall fashions. Student Life Focus on Fashion Fashion was a vast array of tex- tures and styles this year. Paisley prints and plaids in blues, greens, purples and reds warmed up the fall and winter months and splashed school activities with vibrant color. The in-styles” were cropped pants and long, thin skirts topped by enor- mous knobby sweaters. Form-fitting sweater dresses and more femi- nine looks differentiat- ed from the neutered or militant looks of yes- terday. Shorter hair- cuts were the fad for guys and girls, and the infamous surfer haircut” swept the fashion scene. Sweatshirts and turtlenecks made a cozy couple and ankle-hug- ging sneakers reminiscent of the prairie boots paired with long skirts made a definite fashion statement. For guys the year saw the resur- gence of the Bogart” look with trenchcoats and up turned collars. The fashion conscious male also had his Levis rolled up to display his im- peccable taste in high-topped foot- wear. The Coca-Cola corporation made its contribution of Coca-Cola jeans and rugby shirts, and Walt Disney de- lighted Mickey Mouse Fans with sweatshirts, T-shirts, watches, and accessories sporting this debonair Mouse for all seasons. The Swatch watch manufacturers made a killing with their sporty line of accessories and casual wear. Every well-dressed wrist sported one of these symbols of fashion know-how. Soft jersey shirts with buttoned plackets went well with many of the year's fashion arrivals while blue jeans and a sweat- shirt announcing favorite colleges were stand-bys for many students. Stepping back to take a look at the fash- ion year, one saw the return of soft dressing and a focus on main pieces accessorized to add individual flair.

August 24 marked the first time in 2 most three months that a student ad a reason to go to bed on time. next day was it—the first day of school. That was the one day —roughout the whole year that ev- eryone jumped out of :ed as soon as the 2 arm clock went off— 9 day that no one wanted to be late. Ev- erything had to be per- ect—the clothes, the hair, the make-up, ev- erything. For freshmen, this was considered me beginning of a long day of strange 3ces, getting lost between classes, 3 id being taunted by upperclass- men. But it also meant meeting new friends, reuniting with old ones, and- moving to a new stage in life—high school. But for seniors, the picture was dif- ferent. This would be their last “first day” in high school. They had made it through the freshman, sopho- more, and junior “first day jitters and now the life of a senior was be- ginning. Most seniors were ready when school started again. Senior Andy Cook commented, “I was ready for school to start because I wanted to see all of my friends.” “Let me see your schedule!”— These words echoed through the halls all day as friends compared schedules to see how many classes, if any, they had togeth- er. But the “jitters,” get- ting lost, getting to bed on time, and getting up when the clock went off usually did not last very long. All of these were ‘first day” characteristics. by Randell Mixon Jitters, getting lost, getting to bed on time and getting up when the alarm went off were all first day characteristics. I As the Bulldogs tear through the spirit sign drawn by Duval Adams and Bernard Kennedy, youngfans are there to cheer on their favorite team. The Bullodgs mascot otherwise known as Ward Lee Hooker, made sure to make new friends before the start of the game. Student Life Not Just A Game The day was tense, the senior foot- rail players were nervous, the cheer- eaders were spirited, the band - embers were anxious, and the crowd was hushed. It was HOME- COMING! The extraordinary day began with a pep rally, in which a special treat '•as in store. The cheer- eaders performed •neir version of the Super Bowl Shuffle.” Senior cheerleader Kim McNeill stated, “It was a lot of fun making up :ne different parts, and think the players really enjoyed it. Then it was time for the pre-game estivities which included a para- :hute drop and the senior walk. Through the dedication of many fac- ulty members, these proved to be ne highlights of the evening. The crowd watched in amazement as the two parachuters descended from the clear, starry night. Wally West and Billy Carter landed on tar- gets placed in the middle of the foot- ball field. This sight raised the crowd's spirit and prepared them for the excitement yet to come. The parade of seniors and their es- corts was the next center of atten- tion. Escorts ranged from girlfriends to little sisters. A special appearance was made by “Little Momo Refrig- erator” Bowman, who was there to walk in his brother’s place. “Being a senior football player was something I really looked forward to,” said Earl Evans, “and when Wendy Litchfield escorted me, it made everything worth the while.” After the band's awe-inspiring per- formance at halftime, attention was turned to five Homecoming Queen candidates and their escorts. The candidates were Angie Brown, Dei- dra Chisolm, Helena Strickland, Kim McNeill, and Adrienne Bodison. For Helena Strickland, who was crowned Homecoming Queen, it was a very special night. Helena replied, “1 was shocked when my name was announced. I am really glad I was given the honor.

Homecoming Supporting the football team and showing spirit were what Spirit Week was all about. Along with Spirit Week came Secret Pals. Football team members received gifts such as can- dy, stuffed animals, letters, balloons, and flowers. Secret Pals revealed their identities that Friday by wearing the jersey of their “pal.” Robert Carter remarked, “I en- joyed seeing everyone displaying spirit and I especially enjoyed the ’secret pals.™ Spirit Week got started on Monday with Twin Day, when friends dressed alike. This year's Spirit Week took a time-out on Tuesday for Election Day, which was a school holiday. But things got back in full swing Wednesday with Hawaiian and Hats and Shades Day. Tropical fruit, trees, and flowers were seen on hats, shirts, and even pants. Students were required to purchase a ten-cent permit to wear hats and shades and the proceeds went toward financing the senior trip. Thursday was Dress-Up Day and- students donned their Sunday best, Hightop tennis shoes, jeans, and t- shirts were cast aside and the suits, ties, and dresses were brought out of “retirement.” In order to help fi- nance the senior trip, the senior class organized a dance on this same day. Admission was twenty-five cents per couple, and students were not ad- mitted unless they were dressed up. Friday was Blue and White Day. The stu- dents displayed their support for the football team's homecoming game against Burke. For the seniors, this was their last Blue and White Day, so they real- ly put forth an extra effort.

Spirit Week Cafeteria Corner The seating scene was, as usual, hectic, noisy, and potentially danger- ous, if a student did not know what he was doing. Over in the corner were huddled masses of freshmen not quite sure where they could sit or if they were even al- lowed to sit. Then there were the middle class- men, sophomores and juniors. They at least knew enough to grab a seat and spread their _____________ books around, and if they weren't quite quick enough, they could bluff their way through an embarrassing situation.

Student Life Fun In The Sun Summer was a time for work and play. Although some students had to earn wages for future college ca- reers, others had fun in the sun. The astronomical temperatures of the drought that occurred through the summer found some students stay- ing in the comforting coolness of their own home. Besides working and relaxing, stu- dents also found time for fun and parties. Jam- minT Teen Club sponsored a toga party that helped students forget that the end of summer was fastly approaching. Football practice did its fair share of interrupting the summer for some. Grueling practices were held daily in the sweltering heat, and the practices had to be attended to pre- vent disciplinary action from being taken (which usually included run- ning laps.) The Band also held its annual sum- mer camp. This was when rookie band members became familiar with the bands new performance. Rookie band member Garnette Moseley em- phasized, “It’s fun to a certain ex- tent, however, rookies really learn the true definition of hard work.” But, as everyone knows, the most popular summer hangout was the beach. The beach pro- vided a place for students to meet friends and work on their tans. But there was more to do than just lay in the sun. One could play volleyball, throw frisbee, ride a raft, or just build a sand castle. With all of the available activities, summer proved to be what every student looked forward to, like the “light at the end of the tunnel.” But as always, the attempt for an ever- lasting summer failed, as the upcom- ing school year brought an end to it all. Summer is the time for fun, lots; of fun! Mrs. Crawford shows her enthusiasm and sup- port for the faculty during the senior faculty basketball game.

These activities included dances, pageants, and even a visit from a well-known D.J. from a top- rated radio station. Many school affiliated organiza- tions promoted dances. Principal Bob Pence went through great pains to rearrange the schedule in order to accomodate the festivities. These dances usually took place in the commons area dur- ing the last period of the day. Shelby Rishen commented about the dances, It was great the way the faculty supported these dances and allowed for periods to be short- ened. Another favorite activity of the stu- dents was the Queen of Hearts pag- eant. This pageant was held in the mini-auditorium, Leslie Pitts, was chosen to be the Queen of Hearts. The event that highlighted the year was the unexpected visit by Dr. Barry Hill in the Q-107 Video Van.

Happenings Jody McMillan enjoys eating with friends at Dancing the night away, Carl Simmons and Pizza Hut, a popular hang-out. Sonte Smalls wasted no time getting into the groove. Glory Days By the time Friday rolled around, most students had scheduled some- thing for every hour of the upcoming weekend. Whether it was a party at a friend's house, or riding up and down Jeffries Boulevard with a carload of people, teenagers always found something to do. But for some, Wal- terboro held —————— very little to gain one’s in- terest, so at- t e n t i o n s (and auto- mobiles) were turned toward Charleston. Charleston provided the youth of Walterboro with many places to spend their time and money, and get away from Mom and Dad, all in the same night. Movies, malls, and Streamers' proved to be three of the most popular places to find friends. Charleston was chosen by some for Dating was the main wag to spend a weekend with a special person. that special date on which they could wine, dine, and spend a romantic evening on the Battery looking at the stars.

A working high school student, of course. Most students found a job of their own for the simple fact that they wanted their own spending money. After all, at the age of seventeen, funds from Mom and Dad start running extreme- ly thin. This leads to the question mothers always seem to be asking: “What did you do with the money I just gave you And the usual reply was , “I spent it!” Whether they were bagging gro- ceries at Winn-Dixie or cooking ham- burgers at Burger King, teenagers could be found in almost any estab- lishment doing their part to keep things going smoothly.

Once a student cashed his check and had a pocketfull of money, he was on top of the world until next week, when once again the student fell vic- tim to that dreadful disease known to teenagers as “emp- typocketi- tus.” Some students had to do without the.extra money in the fear that it would cost them their good grades. Jody Filch, an unemployed junior, remarked, “I do not have a job because I think it would interfere with my school work, plus I think I can mooch off my par- ents for a couple more years.” by Randell Mixon Bagging ice is just one of the many jobs Bert Larry Penfield helps prepare for the grand Duffie and Jaymie Strickland do working at opening of Sarah's.

Student Life Rice is Nice The annual Rice Festival, founded twelve years ago to commemorate :ie history and heritage of the Colle- ton County area, coincided with spring break this year. Therefore, students were able to participate in and con- tribute to the activities. For the first time, the concessions, exhibits and attractions were set up on Hampton Street instead of •Vashington Street. During the weekend of April 23-25, students, citizens, and tourists flocked to this location to browse, to buy souvenirs, to see arts and crafts, to look at the world’s largest bull, and to enjoy the entertainers. The festival had something for everyone from a carnival and doggers to con- temporary musicians and street dances featuring beach music. Sat- urday’s parade was a highlight of the weekend. It featured floats from community organizations, celebri- ties, and the Band of Blue. Without the assistance of a dedi- cated group of hostesses called the Rice Planters, the festival would not have been such a success. The Rice Planters were young women from area high schools. Their volun- teer responsibilities in- cluded manning the headquarters office and the information gazebo on Hampton Street. One privilege they enjoyed was representing the Rice Festival in other parades around the state. by Tim O’Briant The Rice Festival proved to be a good way to spend a three-day weekend.

Although less formal than the prom, the Spring Dance proved to be just as important and exciting. The freshmen and sophomore class officers selected the food while the decorat- ing commit- tee worked very diligent- ly to convert the drab commons area into a tropi- cal paradise. The dance began promptly at 7:00 with each student a little apprehen- sive about his apparel. At first, stu- dents were not sure about getting on the dance floor, but after a while, the “butterflies” were gone and the dance floor was packed. While some just found the time to dance, others found the time to par- ticipate in relaxing conversations and enjoy the refreshments. One thing that added more excite- ment was the pictures. Even though students had to wait in a very long picture line, most thought the wait was worth it, be- cause the pictures provide students with memories of this wonderful evening for years to come.

Spring Dance The Favorites. Everybody had one thing or another they considered to be their favorite. After surveying 250 students in the ninth through twelfth grades, it was obvious people did not agree on the same things. Whether it was a favorite cartoon character or a pair of jeans, the variety of choices was endless in each cate- gory. When the tally was completed many of last year’s favor- ites were knocked out of their posi- tion. For example, last year’s favor-- ite car, the Iroc Z, lost its pole position to the Porsche. Whether your favorite car was a Porsche or not, the favorite gas station to fill up at was Texamart. This was also the place to get a Coca-Cola Classic, bag In a battle between the Porsehe and the Iroc-Z, the Porsche easily took the poll position among students. of sour cream and onion potato chips, or maybe a pack of Big Red Chewing Gum, all were chosen the best in their categories. Whether students were in their homes or cruising in their cars, the majority agreed that their radios were tuned into WKQB. Here, stu- dents could catch their favority dee- jays. In the morning Mi- chael D was the most lis- tened to and the evening “Doctor” Barry Hill was the favorite. On WKQB or any other station, students could hear their fa- vorite groups or singers, such as the Beastie Boys, Bon Jovi, the Outfield, or the Monkees, all of which easily conquered Prince for the top rock position. by: S.

Favorites Ready Yet? Preparation for the Prom began early in the school year and reached fever pitch by the week of March 30. The junior class Prom Committee consisted of President Cynthia Sal- ley, Katrina Avant, Randy Beach, Ro- byn Blakeman, Vernissa Bodison, Erica Booth, Katrena Colson, Mi- chelle Con- nelly, Ru- d e a n Farmer, Amy McDaniel, Cathi Mizell, Larry Pen- field, Jody Pilch, April Pinckney, Yolanda Pinck- ney, Jason Reeves, Rhonda Robin- son, Carmen Sauls, and Tim Smoak. With the help of fellow students, their advisor, Mrs. Anne Funderburk and other members of the WHS faculty, the Prom Committee worked on Mardi Gras Masks, street lamps, and a crepe paper ceiling. Art classes helped decorate the walls. The theme MOONLIGHT MASQUERADE lent an aura of romance that grew with the excitement of anticipation. Student participation was high and even Mr. Pence got into the swing of things by helping with the decora- tions. Despite some anxi- ety on the part of Mrs. Marilyn Zielke as to whether the suspended ceiling would work, things came together nicely and work was completed on time.

Before one could _______________ enjoy an evening full of romance, students were required to at- tend at least three periods during the day. This was quite — different from pre- --------------- vious years. The re- quired three periods put some, if not most, in a difficult situation. By the time they left school, there was little time for last minute prom prepara- tions. Dinner was considered to be a ma- jor part of the night. Steak houses and seafood restaurants all across town were packed with teenagers, decked out in tuxedoes and prom dresses. Some guys, to make a great impression on their dates, went as far as Charleston to have dinner. Robert Carter hastened to add, “It was really great being with my clos- Wining, dining, and dancing were the main events of everyone’s evening. est friends, casually eating at the Edisto Restaurant.” After a romantic dinner, couples proceeded to the prom, hoping to make it an evening that would remain in their memories forever. When couples arrived, showed their invitations, and received their picture number, they quickly headed for the dance floor. With music pro- vided by Charleston Mobile Music, it didn’t take long for couples to get into the groove of things. Commenting about the music, Cathi Mizell stated. “The music was great! My date, Ca- det Dale Hoover, made the dancing that much better.” When the bewitch- ing hour struck, the prom came to an ——— end. While most had ------------- to be home shortly after the prom, there were the few who changed out of their formals and headed for the beach. These were the lucky ones.

Those who wanted : go to the prom but wanted an ex- n night at the beach had to get up =r nour earlier in order to make the drive from the beach to the school before school started. When Saturday morning arrived, students were up at the break of dawn starting what would definitely be considered one of the longest and greatest parties of all time. Even though a chilling wind blew constant- ly, students still managed to get in a few games of volleyball and even some surfing. Saturday night was spent going from house to house, party to party. Parties could easily be found. All one had to look for was a house that had the music blasting and a yard that closely resembled a used car lot. This continued until the early hours of Sunday or until everyone went to sleep, whichever came first. Sunday morning's routine was the same as Saturday’s. Some students got their pack- ing out of the way so that they could enjoy the rest of the afternoon while oth- ers waited until the last minute. When the time arrived for students to leave the beach, they were once again faced with the reality of par- ents, curfews, and school. by Randell Mixon and Stacy Chris tianson Reality was forgotten as students headed for a weekend of R R.

More Time When over two thousand proud parents, friends and relatives crowd- ed into the gym for the commence- ment exercises, few had any idea of all the work that went into its prep- aration. Nearly a thousand folding chairs for seniors and their audience had to be arranged and the gym had to be spotless. Valedictori- an Miriam Belcher and Salutatorian John Stephens had to write and practice their addresses while third horior graduate Darren Seigler had to compose a fitting invocation and benediction for the occasion. After all this was done, Mrs. Kate George and the senior homeroom teachers had to gather the 283 graduating seniors and junior mar- shalls for a mass simulation of the event. For the seniors the frustration of twelve years of mental preparation was nothing compared to the frus- tration of graduation practice. As the participants were dis- missed, their joy in “get- ting out turned to anxiety in some and sadness in others. They realized that what they were prepar- ing for was the end of a very special time and the beginning of a new, dif- ferent, and somewhat scary one. by graduate Tim O’Briant Every year it is the same. Who remembers how to line up Marilyn Zielke Graduation Practice Realizing the Dream The culmination of twelve years of academics came June 5 when ap- proximately 300 seniors graduated. Although this event marked the end of high school, “the education of a man is never complete until he dies,” as realized by Robert E. Lee. Graduation was a time for recogni- tion of those students who ex- celled. Over $68,000 in scholarships was award- ed. Those students who made over 1000 on the SAT were also recognized. Salu-, tatorian John Stephens did not just break 1000 but scored over 1400. Graduation was also a time to cling to friendships made in high school. It was a time to rekindle memories and relive them once again. Until we meet again, may God hold you in the palm of his hand. Only hundreths of a point separat- ed Salutatorian John Stephens from Valedictorian Miriam Belcher.

Junior Marshal Shawna Davis sheds tears of joy and sadness as she says good-bye to her friends in the senior class and looks forward to her own graduation. The blank expressions of these soon-to-be graduates hide a torrent of emotions. Pride, joy, confusion, and sadness all tug at the hearts of the 283-member class. Graduation ■URN IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION eaching For Excellence MORE THAN THE THREE R’s With new teaching techniques, school was no longer what it was in the days of “Reading, Rit- ing, and Rithmatic.” The most prominent part of school was academics. Academics consisted of any class that is given credit for and took up one or more school periods. Classes were rarly monotonous since teach- ers were encouraged to bring exhibits and speakers into the class room. The science de- partment set a goal to do more experiments and in English, teachers would alternate between grammar, literature and vocabulary. The largest class was Performing Band. The Band of Blue met everyday during the sixth peri- od for practice. All the practicing paid off. On November 8, The Band of Blue earned the covet- ed state championship title for the second time. Other classes excelled in the state and even at the south-east level. The journalism staff has put out an award winning yearbook for five years. The 1986 book earned top in state, and ail south-east. This also made the book a Herff Jones example book which is carried to schools ali over the nation. The distributive education class also had a red letter year. Students competed very favorably in state wide competion, with several students win- ning top in state. A student had to study no matter what courses he took. This made academics a priority that could not be forgotten at 3:10. by Joan Johnson One of the most anticipated competitions of the Academic Team is the Wriinthrop Chal- lenge.

Academics Divider tudying for tests, researching for reports, and reading for pleasure, were the prime uses for the media center. The library boasted various new reference books and an extensive collection of periodicals. Tapes, movies, and re- cords were available to check out for home viewing. The ITV programs shown in the classroom were also handled in the library. '1 feel,” began Mrs. Godwin, a librarian, “that the ITV programs are wonderful. The stu- dents are able to watch television and actually get something educa- tional out of it.” English students constituted the majority of the group that used the media center during class time. The library even offered a program through which the students could, learn the procedures for looking up Study Time The media center is an excellent place for stu- dents to spend their study time.

The Essence of Life periodicals and searching out refer- ence material. “If I hadn't known how to use the periodical index,” claimed Wallace Guilford, “I would not have had as much information in my term paper as I did.” The media center and the English classes did work closely together; however, researching was not the only thing English classes did. Through the fascinating medium of literature, these classes travelled to- gether to distant worlds and faraway places only attainable through the realm of the imagination. Shelly O'Quinn, an A.P. U.S. History stu- dent who also took American litera- ture, felt that she had a “better un- derstanding of why the writers wrote what they did and the different styles they used because “I am also getting an in-depth account of the condi- tions and politics with which they had to deal.” The literary aspects of the classes were varied from teacher to teacher, but the main objective, to retain as much of the English language as pos- sible, in its original form, was upper- most in the plans of most teachers. The deterioration of the language just “appalls” some teachers, Mrs. Janis Blocker included. “I just can’t abide the way some people abuse the language.” The English department and the media center worked very closely to- gether. Both tried to do whatever they could to help students receive decent educations.

Academics an We Talk Learning A Foreign Language side from learning and mas- tering the English language, many students were faced with choosing a second language. Is earning a foreign language as diffi- cult as it seems? Actually learning a foreign language is exciting and fun. The foreign language program was divided into four major sections. The sections included; French I, French I, Spanish I, and Spanish II. French I was made up of students with no experience in the language. The students got a chance to do French dialogues and watch a French television show entitled 1‘En- semble”. First year French students also got a chance to taste French cui- sine. French II, which was taught by Mrs. Edith Frasier, was an indepth study of the language. French II stu- dents were faced with the challenge of learning poems and presenting skits using new vocabulary words. Spanish I was an exciting class for beginners because of teacher, Joan O’Briant. At the end of the year each Spanish 1 student had to present a project on a Spanish speaking coun- try. The projects not only gave the students a chance to learn more about the country, but also informed them of the many countries where the language is spoken. Spanish II required much more in- depth study than Spanish I. During the year Spanish II students enjoyed episodes of the PBS television pro- gram “Zarabonda . The students were also exposed to the famous novel “Don Quixote”. Aside from the dialogues, poems and tests, learning a foreign lan- guage provided students with an awareness of other countries. “I didn't realize that I would enjoy Spanish as much as I did,” remarked Tonya Lloyd. On the other hand Francis Gregory, a French student was excited by the challenge of learning to speak French. “I took French because I think that it is a beautiful language, remarked Fran- cis. by Vernisa Bodison Taking A Break.

With the use of :elevised programs, slide shows, and personal real-life accounts often used as classroom aids, students now have the chance to visit Europe during the Nazi years of World War II, , ew the pyramids of the ancient Egyptians, travel to the lofty moun- tain heights of the Mayan ruins at the mysterious Macchu Piccu, and even jncover the beauty of their own country. All these journeys can be taken in the desks of a history class room. “I always thought that World - story would be boring,” says Man- ning Unger. “I was surprised that it was pretty interesting.” Mrs. Hughes took her Local Heri- tage and A.P.U.S. History students to visit local historic sites and other places of interest. One such place, the plantation of Bonne Doone, holds a romantic aura of days past, “the girls,” began Mrs. Hughes, “love to lean on the bannister and pretend that they are Scarlet O'Hara. They love to play the part of the ‘southern belle.’ ” Men first began keeping record of important events by carving or paint- ing pictures on the walls of their dwellings. As time and civilization progressed, they began keeping writ- ten logs on their special happenings. This was the beginning of written his- tory. Through the years many differ- ent cultures have added to the rich heritage this country possesses. The variegated populace of this nation makes it the most unique in the world; it also makes the history of this nation one of the most interest- ing, since it contains samples from almost every culture on earth. The opportunity to be taught this history was the gift of every student who made the attempt to learn. by Katrina Avant History The Components of Daily Living etting interested in math class can sometimes be harder than it sounds. Often students found that being instructed in the basic rules and theories of ge- ometry and algebra, discovering an- gles in trigonometry, or finding the derivatives in calculus could become very tedious. Many students would rather that the courses not be re- quired for graduation. On the other hand, other students found the mathematical process to be quite a challenge.

Students also found, despite the horror stories preceeding it, that sci- ence opened up a whole new world of knowledge to them. Christy Allen ex- pressed her feelings by saying that science is “an adventure every day. It's not just the same thing over and over. In biology, students were taught the essence of life. In chemis- try the lab was used. Physics intro- duced the joining of math and sci- ence on a higher level. Teachers and students learned how to deal with teaching and learn- ing these sometimes difficult but al- ways essential subjects, science and math. Since these subjects are al- ways being expanded, the wealth of knowledge is never fully uncovered. The on-going discovery helps stu- dents understand the intricacies of life. Wallace Guilford put it best when he observed, “Even though I can’t learn it all, there’s no reason why I should stop trying. Academics Observe!

Not only did the staffers have to put together the y earbook, but they also sold ads, at- :ended workshops, produced a radio program, newspapers, and video- taped many of the school's events. Although these activities were time consuming, the staffers managed to spread the word throughout the school and the community. The Dog House, the quarterly newspaper, required much time and careful planning to produce each is- sue and to research the articles. Sometimes a story would have to be written over three times before it i •vas good enough to go in the news- caper, remarked senior copy editor Pau la Rahn. After writingthe stories, the staffers had to find pictures that would correlate with the stories. Bulldog Beat, the monthly radio show, told about school news, sports and local news. Staffers went to WALD after school to begin practic- ing and taping for the braodcast. Doing the braodcast for the first time was exciting, remarked fresh- man reporter Christie Allen. The broadcast received first place awards at the State Convention. Tim O’Briant, Katrena Colson, Christie Allen, Shawna Davis and Randy Beach attended a radio broadcast workshop in Columbia. For the first time the journalism staff started video taping many of the school’s events. The Video crew included Tim O’Briant and John Ran- dy Beach. The most difficult task was making the video tape of the band’s award-winning performance at State. The yearbook was the major goal that the staffers had to fulfill. The photographers began taking pic tures on the first day of school. Sen- ior editor Joan Johnson recalls when she was a sophomore. I remember when I was the one putting the spreads together; now I am faced with the decision of proofing the spreads and making sure that they are right.

The Tradition Continues uring the sweltering days of August, band camp stretched endlessly on, the hours meld- ing together in a haze of heat. Band practice continued from the first day of August until State Contest, three months later. “It was really hard to keep priorities in order while march- ing in 100 degree pavement,” junior Charlotte Hickman recalled. “State contest seemed so far away.” Similar feelings were shared by many other band members. The prospect of winning a contest that was so far in the future was really just a dream. Nevertheless, it was a dream that was realized on the night of November 8. The super-suppor- tive fans seated in the center of the Harry Parone Stadium in Spring Val- ley roared and set balloons aflight when the band took the marching field. The opening formation was set up and the band began to play. The rest is history. The nearly perfect ex- ecution of the show was capped by an awesome performance of “Amer- ica. The applause thundering throughout the stadium as the audi- ence rose in ovation brought the sting of tears to Angie Bryan's eyes. “I was just so proud to be a part of something like this; I was over- whelmed.” The few seniors that were in the band when it took State in 1982 were all in agreement with band captain Darren Seigler when he exclaimed, “It was great the first time around, but winning the second time is unbe- lieveable!” Band members sacrificed the spring trip for the year bnefore in or- der to help foot the bill for new uni- forms. The fruit sale proceeds from this year were applied to a super trip to New York. Spirits and competition were high, so the fruit sale was very successful. Last year the band placed third in state competiion. “To advance to the number one spot was really a turn in the right direction,” stated drum major Leslie Pitts. by Katrina Avant Band of Blue 55 'I n Event erhaps two of the most awaited events of the year were the spring concerts given by the band and the chorus. The Band of Blue, along with the Middle School’s junior and interme- diate bands, presented their annual concert at Hampton Street Audito- rium on May 7. The concert featured a variety of music including the se- lections “Semper Fidelis,” a Sousa march; “First Suite in E Flat for Mili- tary Band,” written by Gustav Holst; “Testimonials to Liberty,” with a Love lift Us Up Tim Smoak and Amy Alexander sing their own touching version of “Up Where We Belong.

Director Bill Young and his staff worked hard with the musicians as evidenced in the performance during the concert. The chorus concert was held on May 14. The theme for the program was “Yesterday Once More.” The program featured music from the forties through eighties as well as spirituals and Broadway tunes, in- cluding such favorites as “Let It Be,” “My Guy,” and “Up Where We Be- long.” Spirituals included “Blessed Assurance” and “Create In Me a Clean Heart.” The chorus is under the direction of Mrs. Stephanie Drawdy. by Vernisa Y.

Chorus I, Mens’ Chorus, Womens’ Chorus, Performing Cho- rus and WHS Singers. Chorus I con- sisted of first year students. Mens' Chorus was a class that featured ex- perienced male singers. Womens’ Chorus was made up of experienced female singers. Performing Chorus was a combination of all advanced singers. The WHS Singers was a small group of outstanding singers most of whom were All-State Chorus mem- bers. In the fall the Performing Chorus and the WHS Singers sang in a Thanksgiving Concert with the Colle- ton County Choral Society at the Hampton Street Auditorium on No- vember 25. “Singing with the Choral Society was a great experience that I will never forget’’ remarked Erica Booth. After Thanksgiving the Cho- rus began to prepare for their annual Christmas Concert. Familiar Christ- mas songs were sung. In November, several chorus members went to Columbia to audi- tion for All-State Chorus. Amy Alex- ander, Miriam Belcher, Tim Smoak, Lee Murdaugh, Christy Green, Wayne Jamison, Shelbie Risher, Ted- dy Maybry, Lee Murdaugh, and Rhonda Robinson were chosen to be a part of the Honors All-State Cho- rus. During the weekend of March 22-24, these award-winning stu- dents went to Rockhill where they practiced 14 hours along with the other Honors All-State Chorus mem- bers, and presented a concert Sun- day afternoon. In the spring the chorus presented another concert, entitled “Yester- day once More.” A barbershop quar- tet was an entertaining addition to the program of music. Chorus class was a time in the day when one could relax. It also gave students the opportunity to learn about music. by Vernisa Bodison Grandma Got Run Over ...

Vocational classes teach day-to-day living ery often, students found themselves in a rut. Tired of purely academic courses, they took classes like Foods and Nu- trition, Clothing and Textiles, and Ag- riculture. Classes such as Foods and Nutrition and Prevocational became stepping stones for students who planned to go into vocational school classes such as Food Service or Ma- sonry. Foods and Nutrition, taught by Mrs. Carolyn Lewis, helped students learn about nutrition. Sophomore Sharon Middleton found Foods and Nutrition I really helpful because she planned to attend the vocational school for Food Service in her junior and senior years. Senior Helana Strickland took the course just to get the basics in cooking. Having never really tried to cook before, Helana was extremely proud of her first cooking accomplishment—peanut butter cookies for a teachers' meet- ing. The Foods and Nutrition classes culminated their cooking skills by preparing all of the food for the prom. Clothing and Textiles, also taught by Mrs. Lewis, was a very helpful class if students wanted to learn how to sew. One of the few male students in this type of class, senior Johnnie Williams took Clothing and Textiles because he felt it would be a good way to meet girls. What he didn’t count on was having a talent for sew- ing that often surpassed that of the girls. Agriculture classes, taught by Mr. William Wrighten, gave students a taste of the world as businessmen. In a class project, junior Monroe Rhodes planted a peach orchard and sold the fruit—for a profit. Agricul- ture classes also learned a little about small engines. Vocational classes opened the door to the real world for students. Students practiced new skills and perfected old ones and at the same time gained confidence in their abili- ties to join the work force. by Paula Rahn Academics Finger-lickin' good Prom week gives the food classes a chance to bake their best.

L Academics Business, and Computer Classes hen preparing for the fu- ture, many students feel that the most important classes are business, typing, and computer classes. With the neces- sary skills and practice, these stu- dents began to lay the foundation to be successful and productive busi- ness persons. Two typing classes were offered for those students that wanted to re- ceive knowledge in this field. They were Typing I and Personal Typing. One of the major differences be- tween the two was that Typing I was a full-year course. General Business was a full-year course that provided students with information on the growing business world. This class increased the stu- dents’ awareness of businesses all over the world. The computer classes were taught by Mr. Doug Bullock.

In such a serious job, according to Danny Reeves, there’s “no room for playing around.” Paving the Way to the Future athi Mizell, a Drafting I stu- dent, felt that vocational edu- cation “provided me with a better opportunity to get a job.” Job assurance was the main reason stu- dents opted for the Vocational School. With such classes as Draft- ing, Welding, Masonry, Auto Mechan- ics, Food Service, and Accounting, students were able to prepare them- selves for the future. Students began at the Vocational School in their junior year. Within the span of two years, these students were instructed in a certain trade. In their senior year students had the chance to be involved in the co-op program. The top students in the classes were able to get a job before, during, or after school, depending on : eir hours and the periods they at- :ended the Vocational School. Dawn Berryman, a senior in Accounting II, was part of the co-op program. She went to work before and after school at Beaver, Inc. The Vocational School provided specialized training in certain areas. Food Service, Masonry, Welding, and Accounting were just samples of the courses available to the students through the Vocational School. Food Service allowed students training and experience in the field. Carla Montgomery felt that “expo- sure to food preparation and serving skills prepares me for a future job.” Masonry students learned how to mix mortar, lay bricks, work with concrete, and other related skills. Many projects in the community were undertaken by the masonry students. Bird baths were just one example of the projects the students prepared for the community. Welding classes were taught the basics of welding and the safety pre- cautions they must follow. These students also worked for the com- munity. Welding barbecues back to- gether, smoothing the bottoms of trailers, and such projects were help- ful to others as well as being a learn- ing process. Mrs. Earl McConnell, Accounting teacher, felt that the students in her class were prepared to take on a ca- reer in accounting after graduation. Accounting students, having prior typing experience, were taught of- fice and accounting skills. The class involved working with computers as well as with other office equipment. Drafting teacher Wayne Kubik stated, “The stigma attached to vo- cational education is slowly disap- pearing. Even if a student is not inter- ested in academics, he may come to the Vocational School, learn a trade, and become successful.” by Vernisa Bodison Making Mud Pies Monroe Washington carefully mixes mortar to set bricks.

Students often gained a sense of pride when :ney discovered they had perfected a certain technique. This sense of aride, along with the knowledge that they had accomplished something, :ften came in classes that demand- ed a certain kind of striving. These : asses varied in their requirements; some required physical endurance and others required artistic abilities. One class that tested students' phys- ical capabilities was Physical Educa- : on. A requirement for graduation, pE taught students about them- selves and their bodies’ limits. They s:udied muscles and body toning and earned the proper ways to exercise. They built endurance and stamina, ney discovered new meanings for me term “bone-tired. They rede- ned Hell. In Coach Raymond Eurke's class, the last week of school ■ as known as “Hell Week.” Stu- dents’ physical limits were stretched in an effort to motivate them to greater achievements. Many stu- dents walked around moaning in ag- ony after Coach Burke’s workout, but none denied the fact that the workout had taught them valuable knowledge about their physical con- stitution. All in all, PE classes were an important part of a student’s high school career because they tested the physical aspects of a student’s personality. Another way students tested their abilities was in the study of art. They experimented with various media, such as woodburning, ceramics, pen-and-ink drawings, watercolors and oils. They practiced at different techniques until they found one with which they were comfortable. They drew and they sketched; they mold- ed and they baked; they worked at creating the best. They strove for perfection. They learned the art of creating. Rodney Hiers experienced a feeling of achievement in Mrs. i Marilyn Zielke's Ceramics class after i he “took a lump of NOTHING and made SOMETHING. The students did not always win blue ribbons, but they discovered that winning was not everything, that being a true winner was doing the best that one can do, even if it meant falling short by ev- eryone else’s standards. They par- ticipated in art shows, sponsored by various civic groups and often placed. They learned the true mean- ing of frustration, because very often they found it difficult to express their inner feelings in a tangible manner. But still they persevered and strove all the harder for perfection. Both PE and Art were challenging courses for students because they required stamina and dedication. They required a different kind of en- durance because they gave a differ- ent kind of reward. They gave stu- dents the reward that comes from knowing that one has done his best- and succeeded. by Paula Rahn Heat of Battle...A TEAM EXPERIENCE When all was said and done, the most impor- tant aspect of high school was academics. Even though sports took a back seat, it was certainly the more visible of the two. Over the course of the year, thousands attended Bulldog athletic events. Athletics were the factor by which a por- tion of the general public judged a school. Not CTBS but football and basketball scores were what became supremely important when a student put down his books, picked up his gear, and took the playing field. Even when locked in the heat of battle, a student continued to learn. He was learning the value of individual achieve- ment tempered with the strength of teamwork and cooperation. He was learning to fine tune his body’s capabilities through hard work and en- durance. Above all, he was learning sportsman- ship. These dedicated athletes involved in events from football to soccer, volleyball to softball ex- perienced both victory and defeat. The football team began what had previously looked like a championship year with a series of crippling losses from academic ineligibility to injuries. The softball team, on the other hand, had a young squad that left a question mark in everyone’s mind. Despite their inexperience, the team made an excellent showing. All these achieve- ments and disappointments made Bulldog ath- letics one of the most memorable parts of high school life. by Tim O’Briant Marion Cobbs gets the step on the Berkeley defender and at- tempts to outjump him for the two points.

Ranked 16th in the state, the Bull- dogs opened the 1986 season as one of the top competitive teams among their division. With twenty-three re- turning seniors, this season was ex- pected to be one of the best seasons the Bulldogs have had in three years. With the new weight-lifting pro- gram in process, the Bulldogs worked all spring and summer lifting weights to prepare them for the up- coming season. The Dogs headed for camp at Wof- ford College in early August, and that was where all the hard work began. As a senior, camp was call work and no play. We had to practice three times a day, said senior, Robert Martin. The Bulldogs had to build their team to meet the competitive 6-AAAA Regional Competition. With twenty-three well-experienced sen- iors the team is preparing to run a lot of new offenses and defenses, said Coach Hall. Coach Hall commented that experience was not a problem for the team but depth in players played a major role in some very close games. He also added that most of the twenty-one starting seniors had to play both offense and defense. Fired up and ready to play football, the Bulldogs arrived at Johnson Ha- good Stadium to perform against the Baptist Hill Bruins in the annual Ser- toma Classic. In just one quarter of play, the Bull- dogs drove 65 yards, using up over half of the period on their first pos- T session, only to come up short of a score. On a possession, they were faced with a third and goal from the nine-yard line. Quarterback Jamie St rickland faked the hand-off to Keith Green and found Bennie Hutto in the endzone for a nine-yard touchdown. Hutto added the extra point, giving the Dogs a 7-0 victory over the Bru- ins.

They lost a very close game to one of their big rivals, the Stratford Knights, 11-10. Along with all of their miscues, their starting senior running back Keith Green broke his ankle in the late second quarter. The week that followed their loss to Stratford, the Bulldogs found themselves deeper into injuries. The Bulldogs lost their senior offense tackle, Moses Bowman, who was in- jured in a bus accident. Bowman was out for the season with a crushed pelvis. “At six feet four inches, 285 pounds, Bowman was a prime col- lege prospect,” said Coach Hall. For weeks, fans looked forward to exciting victories; however, the Sum- merville game always seemed to stir up everyone’s emotions. “This was the year that I thought we could beat Summerville,” said linebacker Shawn Brown. He added, “We were well prepared for them.” The Bull- dogs played a very exciting game against the Greenwaves holding them scoreless in the first quarter. With one minute and twenty-three seconds in the half, Summerville went on the scoreboard and held out for the win. Summerville scored only one more touchdown in the game. Following their five straight losses, the Bulldogs clinched a 12-0 victory over Georgetown keepingthe team’s playoff hopes alive. Easily destroying Burke 20-6, the Dogs finished their season with a satisfactory 5-5 re- cord. Entering the playoffs, the team faced conference rival the Berkeley Stags. After a long, well-fought battle the Stags came out on top by a score of 13-0.

Football 73 RSEVERANCE There is an old wise saying that states, “Good things come to those who wait.” This quote can be said of the junior varsity football squad. The team struggled through a year of hardships and disappointments cummulating in heartfelt victory in their last game of the season. The Bullpups opened their season by stomping North Charleston 13-8 and launching a bright future for the team. The visions were quickly shat- tered, when the team, filled with hope and excitement was atomized by Wando 0-23. This devastation led to a seven game losing streak. The team suffered from more young inexperienced players than they ever had before. The backfield showed only the experience found in veteran tailback Eric Stephens. The team had only five returning players and many eighth graders. The few returning players were a big asset to the team as most played both ways. Veteran tenth grader Mi- quel Koger assumed the hard-hitting duties of offensive tackle as well as nose-guard. Veteran Ninth grader Jeff Hickman acted as offensive guard and linebacker. Not only did the team lack experience but they lacked size as well. The entire offen- sive line was much smaller than it was in past years. Throughout the long and tiring season the Bullpups strived for that one moment of victory that was al- ways fleeting from their grasp. The team struggled . through one-sided games with Berkeley, Summerville and Stratford but the hunger for that one win was growing in their minds and their hearts. When the last game of the season arrived most thought that all hope was gone but the young men of the junior varsity football team had no intentions of losing an- other game. As the Burke Bulldogs took the field the pulse of every player began to race and it did not stop until the time went off the scoreboard and Walterboro had reigned victorious. This last chance victory, being achieved by an one-hundred percent effort from every player, cummulat- ing in a win for the young inexperi- enced squad. by Randy Beach Sports Eric Stephens, brother of the famous linebacker Tony Stephens, looks for an open hole through which to escape his opponent and score that de- sired touchdown.

It attempted this by incorpo- rating the experience of the few vet- eran players with the finesse of the j ounger rookies. The combination of cnese two fundamental characteris- t cs was astounding; however, exper- ence and finesse did not make up for me inexperience of not playing to- gether on the same team in the past. Ricky Wilson, Cliff Warren, Darren Seigler, and Bennie Hutto provided me necessary leadership as the only our returning senior players. These players were exceptional members of the team. Wilson, Seigler, and Hutto made All-Tournament in the Beaufort Soccer Classic, and Coach fw fftS «IlfIlf6 I Don Carr described Warren as a “team player” because he could play several positions well. Warren broke his right arm during a match with Goose Creek and was unable to finish the season. This, however, was not a fatal blow to Warren as he, Seigler, and Hutto qualified for All- Region at the end of the season. To- ward the end of the season, Warren commented that the members of the team were “just starting to play like a team, and if we just had one more year to play together, we would be undefeatable.” Coach Carr reinforced this statement by com- paring Walterboro’s soccer program with.that of many other schools, in- cluding Summerville. Carr pointed out that “Summer- ville's players play all year as well as having played together for many years because of other soccer pro- grams that are separate from the school.” Coach Carr added that the team was about “two years down the road from the play-offs.” He at- tributed the skill of the young rookies to the recent formation of the Re- creation Commission Soccer League and the intramural program at the high school. Carr commented that first year senior player Jim Miller was a fine example of Coach Burke’s ac- complishments in founding the intra- mural program. “In perspective,” Carr observed, “this team is a nucleus for the fu- ture.” by Leah C. Bell Soccer Starting goalie Ricky Wilson leaps high into the air in order to save the bait from surround- ing Summmerville opponents. Although this was not a banner year for the young cross-country team, it did set a record under 2nd- year coach Al Reitman. This is the first time in the history of WHS that the team has fielded both a girls' and boys’ team. According to coach Reit- man, “We didn’t have an impressive win-loss record, but we gained im- mensely in experience and maturity. Out of the ten runners, nine of them will be seniors.” The beginning of the season start- ed out with some problems. Coach Reitman came out to mark the course and found out that the new Bulldog Avenue extention had cut part of the course. “I was out mea1 suring the back part of the course when I noticed I was walking out onto Bulldog Avenue,” said Coach Reit- man. Coach Reitman ended up hav- ing to cut a new trail through that part of the woods. The team lost some members part way through the season and picked up others to take their places. Two junior cheerleaders, Katrina Colson and Shawna Davis, came out in mid- season as well as foreign exchange student Anne Igartiburu. This was the first time running for all three girls. Although Anne has run mara- thons in Spain, she had never run the 3.1 mile race. ”1 wish all my runners had Anne’s desire to excel,” stated Coach Reitman. Anne also placed 84th out of 209 girls in the state. Another first this year was the first annual Walterboro Invitational. This meet was held on the WHS course and included all the nine schools in the Low Country that fielded teams. Trophies for first place in the girls' and boys’ races were donated by Warshaws’ and Shoeland of Walter- boro. Coach Reitman hopes to add some teams from around Columbia to next year's meet. Carl Strickland was voted MVP by his teammates while eighth grader Gregory Chisolm was voted Most Im- proved. For the girls, Anne Igartiburu was voted MVP, and Kim Smith, an eighth grader, was voted Most Improved by her fellow teammates.

Richard Hutchinson and Herman Wright left the team be- cause of discipline problems.” Injuries also affected the varsity team's basketball season. Sandy Fields was injured and had to stay out for two games. Jamel Bodison was also injured. The major turning point and prob- ably the most memorable game of this year's varsity basketball team was the game with Burke High School. In this cliff-hanger the Bull- dogs defeated Burke with a one- point win with a final score of 54-53.

Going -jrther in the play-offs than ever be- ': re, the team ended the year in Feb- ruary but never utilized full ability as a team until the latter part of the sea- son. The team consisted of one senior, 'onically enough, that senior was 5 panish exchange student Anne Igar- • zuru. The team also had two ninth graders, Michelle Minton who had a 10.7 points per game average for the ear and Letha Brown who showed great raw talent, never having played i ganized ball. However, the power vas concentrated in the sopho- mores and juniors on the team. Sophomore Lane McLeod at guard zrovided extra support from the :ench by shooting an average of 5.7 loints per game. Leading rebounder Rhonda Robinson, who was also a top student, muscled and fought her way through other players for a re- markable 259 rebounds and scoring 256 points for her team. Monica Holmes displayed her talent with a 12.1 average. She scored 278 points, making her the leading scor- er, and fielded 163 rebounds. How- ever, Head Coach Marsha Coe felt the girls who made up her bench also served a valuable purpose as the scoring efforts and triumphs of play- ers Letha Brown, Cathy Jakes, Angie Elliott, Anne Hall, and Laura Kinard kept the team's momentum and spirit going. Ms Coe felt another technique also helped the team to success. In several practice sessions the girls’ varsity team would scrimmage the boys' varsity team. The contests were never considered a battle of the sexes; however, they allowed the girls’ and boys' teams to practice against set-up offenses and defenses and to gain valuable playing exper- ience. Ms Coe felt that the team had tak- en great strides toward a winning season over the past few years. She noticed that the girls seemed to play more as a team and felt that in her words, “It didn't matter who made the points as long as a basket was scored. The team worked very hard but tried to have fun while they worked.

XPERIENCE Hey to the future Essentially, junior varsity teams were a training ground for varsity teams. The j.v. team taught the basic fundamentals of the game and gave the player experience which, in turn, built confidence. However, with the great success of the girls’ j.v. basket- ball team, the shot of confidence found its way into the arm of the girls’ varsity team. The junior squad pushed its way through to an impressive 15-5 re- cord, scoring a total of 461 points and defeating Summerville. Starting a variety of players, Coach Marsha Coe felt that her bench, as on the varsity team, was strong enough to secure points on the board just as well as her starters. Trying to let players experience different posi- tions on the court, Ms. Coe changed her line-up quite frequently. Audrey Breland occasionally stepped in as guard or forward for teammates Alli- son Bridge and Rena Haynes, who were the team’s leading rebounders. Also Frances Gregory and LuNell Sweat could be seen sharing the cen- ter position, while guard Fredricka Ford, the team’s leading scorer with 107 points, usually divided her duties wjth Latasha Hudson. Working hard and having a good attitude were important in a player, but skill and practice were necessary attributes as well. Many girls on the j.v. 'team were able to get much- needed experience by being involved with a basketball program at Colle- ton Middle School. The program con- sisted of a boys’ and girls’ team that played its own full schedule all over the state. The main reason for this team was not to be the best, but to experience the feeling of the game. Ms. Coe felt that the program, one which she had been requesting for many years, had brought about an astonishing improvement in the team. Another asset to the team were players Allison Bridge, Latarsha Hudson, and Lenore Wasson, who played on the j.v. team while they were in the seventh grade.

With the arrival of spring comes -e inevitables; birds, hay fever, soring break and baseball. Coach Ralph Martin, with the help of tireless -ssistant Russell Polk and Saturday :raetices, began whipping this group ; young men into a baseball team in 33riy January. After a less than in- so ring season last year, the team • as looking forward to another shot 3 a championship and at beating 5-mmerville. The team began its season on a S3ur note winning only one of its first zames, Seniors Robbie Carter and _3mel Bodison did what they could :n the mound, but as the team was :sing, its spirit suffered. Hope came in the form of freshman Marlin Cobbs who grabbed the reins and struck back with two no-hitters and a final record of 6-2. Cobbs was chosen as Most Valuable Player by his team- mates. Shawn Brown serving as team cap- tain, chosen by his teammates for his experience felt proud to be a leading force and inspiration to his teammates. He stressed that, “The most important thing is to play as a team; no one individual can win a game.” Leading hitter Keith Green felt the same way about teamwork as his captain did. Among the many seniors on the team, including reli- able catcher Keith Green who was batting champ with a .333 average, there were a few juniors who filled out the line-up. Joey Robertson, who was voted Most Improved, and Mike Hiott alternated at third, while Jer- ome Williams added depth at sec- ond. Having beaten Georgetown twice and North Charleston and Wando on several occasions, the team felt real- ly good about their play-off chances. Senior Denney Hall who was also vot- ed Golden Glove, noted, “This year has been better because we're win- ning a lot more.” The team, having had several victories under its belt, felt confident enough to approach Summerville with a hunger. The team's hard work and determination paid off tremendously as Summer- ville was defeated, 6-4. The large number of freshman and sophomores on the team could make Coach Polk's statement of WHS having, “an exceptional pro- gram year-in and year-out,” a feasi- ble reality.

The team finished second in its conference this year, the highest the team has ever placed in the school history. The year marked a first for the team in that it won two track meets in one year. This year the returning runners took top honors in the meets, but the newcomers were consistently earn- ing points. Among boys’ track teams, com- petitiveness is underrated. Though the team did not have a legitimate track upon which to run, there were a number of competitive runners. This year, two members of the boys’ track team qualified for one of the most pretigious track meets— the Coaches’ Invitational in Myrtle Beach. Junior Ronald Mitchell and Senior Dexter Kelly were the only boys to compete for the team. Coach Al Reitman was very pleased with both runners’ ability to compete with such good athletes.” He also added, “Though neither of the two runners placed, both of them low- ered their times.” Although the entire team did not take a part in the lower state track meet, many individuals finished strong in the conference meet. Ken- ny Brown tied the school record for the 300 intermediate hurdle set in 1981 by Ty Simmons with a time of 41 seconds. Kenny Bowman (5th High Hurdles), Carl Strickland (4th 110 High Hurdles and 3rd 300 Hur- dles), Greg Wilson (4th 800 meters), Anthony Garret (6th 3200 Meters), Marcel Anthony (6th 300 Hurdles), and Dexter Kelly (100 meter dash 5th and 200 meter dash 6th) all con- tributed to the teams strong second place finish in the conference. Ron- ald Mitchell placed first in the 100, 200, and 400 meter dash. He was the only triple winner in the meet. Ronald Mitchell, Kenny Brown, Carl Strickland, and Greg Wilson qualified for the Lower State track meet in Sumter, S.C. This year the team lost seniors Dexter Kelly, Antony Garret, Philip Pryor, Willie Brown and Lonnie Jar- vis. They also lost Ronald Mitchell and Marcel Anthony due to early graduation. Coach Al Reitman com- mented, “Even with their losses we are looking forward to even a better season next year with Carl Strickland and Kenny Brown returning in the hurdles, and Gregory Wilson return- ing in the 800.” According to Coach Al Reitman “These runners and all the others returning should be able to put together another strong sea- son for the track team, but the team still needs a track upon which they can train.” Ronald Mitchell was voted MVP for 1987, with Gregory Wilson receiving the Most Improved vote from their team mates. Mitchell commented, “Being voted MVP for a second year really made my experience on the track team one that I will not forget.” §§ by Dexter Kelly 90 Sports Sidelines f : | Being voted MVP tor a sec- ond year realty made my ex- perience on the: trdctc -team: one that.

The squad, which was a mix of vet- erans and rookies, had a very suc- cessful year despite its limited fa- cilities. With the only available ack being the student parking lot, the girls found practice to be a challenge. Their hard work, how- ever, payed off as the team won two meets and had many players qualify for All-Region and Lower- State positions. Rhonda Robinson, Rhonda Maree, and Monica Holmes set school records in the shotput, the longjump, and the triple jump. Robinson was chosen for All-State mt and won in the conference meet in the shotput event. Robinson also handily broke the school shotput record of five years with a thirty- six-foot-eleven-and-one-half inch throw. Rhonda Maree broke the school record in the longjump by sailing fifteen feet and eleven and one half inches. Monica Holmes set a new record in the triplejump of thirty-four feet and three and three fourths inches. Michelle Minton qualified for Lower-State competition in the 400 meter dash as did Kim McNeil in the 200 meter run. The team did very well in team events as well as in individual com- petition. The 4100 meter relay team set a new school record with a lightening time of fifty-two sec- onds. Those team members in- cluded Rhonda Maree, Monica Holmes, Rhonda Robinson, and Kim McNeil. The mile relay team qualified for the Lower-State com- petition. Those team members in- cluded Michelle Minton, Erica Jen- kins, Shana Drayton, and Kim McNeil, who was unable to run at Lower-State because of an illness. Sophomore Lorinda Black ran in her place. Drayton commented, “It was hard, but as long as you have the stamina, you can com- plete the race.” Coach Marsha Coe felt that the team had im- proved greatly and she will be looking for, “bigger and better things next year. by Randy Beach Ane Igartiburu runs for the finish line.

Although :ne team had three returning play- ers, Monica Holmes, Evonne Smalls, =nd Evette Smalls, the squad was “nainly composed of rookies. Coach Cathy Layton remarked, “I was im- :ressed with the talent that was put 'arth by the new players.” The newcomers not only learned a zreat deal about the sport but also -ad fun playing it. Kayce Reed, a 'ookie player, emphasized, “Even ■lough we didn’t do well statistically, I had fun playing, and I think that is the most important part of playing any sport.” Although practice was a time for hard work, the team managed to re- lax by playing a scrimmage game against some of the football players. The football players made an amus- ingly unsuccessful attempt to defeat the volleyball team. Billy Ray Hern- don commented, “Actually, I wasn’t trying to play. I was just chillin’,” in a feeble attempt to make a reasonable excuse for the defeat. Despite the season’s record, the volleyball team played all three matches in several games, which is a great feat that some of the previous WHS teams have never accom- plished. Coach Layton even com- mented, “With the number of new players, I think we had a fairly good season.” Monica Holmes, captain of the team, also thought the team had a good season and exclaimed, “It was great how we stuck together!” by Leah C. Bell Volleyball 97 D ride One of the most popular and suc- cessful sports at WHS is softball. Year in and year out the softball team amazes its audience and makes the school proud. The 1987 team was no exception as the girls won the confernece championship for the fifth consecutive year. The team tied the school record in wins with a 21-3 season. With pitchers Tracey Reeves and Christy Moseley, the team allowed an average of only 1.79 runs per game. Reeves, a sophomore, com- mented, “Without the ability to play as a team that we have, all the hard work that we do would be useless.” Reeves was selected for first team All-State. Rookie Michelle Minton was named Golden Glove champion. Senior Marvelyn Holmes shone as leading hitter and as the team’s Most Valuable Player. Holmes was later chosen to play in the North-South All-Star game. Left-fielder Monica Linder was also chosen for first team All-Region. Also recognized for their excel- lence were Christy Moseley and Mi- chelle Minton, who were selected for second team All-Region. Assuming the right-field position was veteran Lanette Polk and playing center-field was Nicole Holmes. Holding key posi- tions were Lane McLeod, who played third base, and Tammy McGraw, who managed the difficult task of catcher. Although the team never reached its hitting potential, it scored an average of 10.58 runs per game. The team was able to employ bunting more successfully than in past sea- sons. The team’s overall defensive game, however, was its most valu- able asset. According to Coach Rusty Adams, the team had good speed and skill but was blessed with a few lucky breaks. Coach Adams re- marked that the, “girls take a lot of pride in what they are doing.” This pride was very evident in another championship season. by Randy Beach Sports Center-fielder Nicole Holmes slides into home, hoping to score a run for her team.

These things may be nothing for the average per- son, but the cheerleaders had their -ands in all of these activities and more. The week of June 31 through July 1 the cheerleaders had a busy week i “tending the Universal Cheerleader -ssociation Camp at Baptist College n Charleston, South Carolina. The lirls worked together diligently be- cause each day their group was eval- -ated by the camp instructors. The group earned a better rating overall mis year than any other group from -Valterboro has earned. Exciting new cheers, chants and pompom rou- tnes were brought back and suc- cessfully performed throughout the football and basketball season. Volleyball and cross-country sports neglected in the past, both re- ceived the cheerleaders’ attention. The girls brought out the point that their job was to produce and boost school spirit for all school functions. Once a week, three or four cheer- leaders worked with midget football cheerleaders at the Colleton County Recreation Commission. The squad was divided into small teams so that no one cheerleader was over worked. Captain Kim McNeil said,“I loved working with the little girls and I don'tthink an hour twice a month is a lot of time to give up when you are really appreciated. Another duty split up among the squad was the making of the banners for football games. The banners were gigantic and not an easy task. Nevertheless, one was designed for every game. Al Reitman, cross-country coach, called on the cheerleaders early in the season to aid in the tournament. The girls worked with timing and re- cordkeeping. JV cheerleaders were also a great asset to school functions. The squad was predominantly new and the out- look for a good varsity squad looked promising. Along with the new attitude toward cheering came new uniforms. The uniforms enhanced the enthusiam of the hard-working squad. The squad went above and beyond the call of pep and set the mold for future squads. by Stacy Christianson Rain, sleet, hail or snow—nothing can put a damper on Katrena Colson’s spirit.

Chasing away the chill in the air, the sunlight made the weather ideal for a day of competition. The participants and volunteers lined up for the opening procession. After fil- ing onto the field, the games were officially opened by the lighting of the torch and the opening invoca- tion by Father Victor Sidell of St. Anthony Catholic Church. Volunteers from Walterboro High and Ruffin High did a commendable job of helping the day to run more smoothly for the Civitans, the local sponsors of the Olympics. Student volunteers worked on a one-on-one basis with participants that re- quired more attention. They also came dressed, as did Kim McNeil and Joan Johnson, as clowns; Ka- trina Avant painted faces of supervi- sors and volunteeers, as well as par- ticipants.

Shawn Brown, a Walterboro High volunteer, found it truly touching when he asked a child participant in which competition had he won his ribbon and received the reply, “I didn’t win it. They gave it to me just for running. A sense of achievement was shared by volunteers as well as par- ticipants.

Clubs ran on a regular schedule giving them a chance to plan and execute activities. Some of these activities were trips, speakers, and com- munity activities. Clubs were also able to have fund raisers such as bake sales, car washes, doughnut sales, fruit sales, and many more. One of the largest clubs, the Spirit Club, had a new advisor, Ms. Sandy Stearns. This club had meetings before the regular club schedule in or- der to prepare for football season. Members of- ten stayed after school to make signs and plan spirit promoting sales. The National Honor Society held its annual in- duction ceremony in February. Members of this club were nominated by the scholarship com- mittee. These students were chosen based on their academic achievement and teacher refer- ences. The History and Science clubs went on trips.

A strong Student Council provided sev- eral opportunities for future leaders to gain experience in leadership. A Veteran’s Day assembly orga- nized by the student council gave class officers and representatives the perfect chance to demonstrate their leadership ability. Aside from collec- tive student council activities, the indi- vidual classes organized and spon- sored separate fundraisers. The senior class had to pay for ex- penses to cover the Senior trip; there- fore, a Queen of Hearts pageant was- held to raise money and to involve more students. A demanding schedule for the junior class called for dedicated hours. The prom, a major event during the year, was a great concern to juniors. Sever- al fundraisers were initiated to help cover expenses. An after-school dance in the commons area interest- ed most students. A Thanksgiving raf- fle offering a $50 gift certificate from Winn-Dixie or a $10 gift certificate for gas raised even more money to fill the Prom's coffers. Closer to the date of the prom, class key chains were sold to raise money to cover expenses. The sophomore class had to orga- nize and sponsor the spring dance. Opportunities arose to prepare them for the future. The freshman class was able to take on a leadership position in many ac- tivities. They followed examples of the other classes in order to prepare for the times when they follow in their footsteps. by Katrena Colson ??0 Clubs Industriously working on new ideas for fundraisers are Student Council advisor Mrs. Stroble, secretary Angie Brown, President Leslie Pitts, and Vice President Diedra Chisolm.

Despite the fact that this was the first year that the Modeling Club was introduced, it turned out to be a huge success. Thirty-two students partici- pated in learning the correct way to walk and the proper way to coordi- nate garments and accessories. The club presented two fashion shows during the year. One was held at the school in the mini-auditorium. The second was held at K-Mart. The students practiced on Mondays and Thursdays after school with help of advisor Patricia Duggins. Even though Mrs. Duggins didn't go to modeling school, she was able to teach the students how to act and how to look like a professional mod- el. Debra Jones commented, “The Modeling Club is a good experience for all young people to have in model- ing.” Mrs. Duggins was extremely pleased with the student response to the club and with the potential that some of the students displayed. The students that Mrs. Duggins felt showed promise were Shannon Mar- tin, Letha Evans, Debra Jones, Char- lotte Hickman and Makala Wright. The class celebrated a successful year in Charleston at the Red Lob- ster.

Signs and posters were hung in the com- mons area as well as from goal posts at the football stadium. Because so many posters crowded the commons area, a cork strip was added around the top of all the walls. Signs and posters decorated the halls, drawing attention to pageants, dances, parties, and games. The band was even cheered on to com- petitions as they drove past posters tacked to the overpasses. The signs and posters fulfilled their intentions of drawing spirit, attract- ing attention, and demonstrating ar- tistic ability.

Without the special care and attention of these advisors, the achievements of successful clubs would have been non-existent. With dedication, advisors planned activities which they thought the stu- dents would enjoy. Field trips, out- ings, and special activities were all a part of each club’s agenda. Some advisors founded clubs which promoted positive qualities. Coach Robert Driggers, advisor for the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, remarked, ‘The purpose of the FCA is to present to the athletes and coaches and all whom they influence the challenge and adventure of re- ceiving Jesus Christ as Savior and Computers are used to instruct members of the Chess Club.

Under the direction of Mrs. Laura Lynn Hughes, the FTA club partici- pated in several activities that were advantageous and enlightening. Be- ing an excellent example to follow, Mrs. Hughes built a strong group of Future Teachers of America.

Clubs ‘TtCetUM (2 Just as delegates met in Indepen- dence Hall in 1787 to formulate a constitution that would govern the people, the Student Council met on May 9, 1987 to revise a constitution that would govern the student body. Since the constitution had been writ- ten during the time of a two-grade high school, revisions in the constitu- tion were necessary to govern the new student body. Sections were altered which per- tained to elections of Student Coun- cil officers, and sections were de- leted .which were no longer needed because of a four-year school ar- rangement. Instead of limiting the positions of offices to only seniors or only juniors, the clause was arranged to allow per- sons from each of the four grades to take part in Student Council. Pre- viously, students were allowed to hold only one major office. However, it was altered so that the best person available would be allowed to per- form for the benefit of the entire stu- dent body. Because of the Education Im- provement Act, the article dealing with cheerleaders was deleted, leav- ingthe qualifications and elections to be governed under the athletic de- partment. Also deleted was the statement prohibiting special stu- dents such as the handicapped from holding an office in the student body organizations. Realizing the greatly needed changes in the constitution, the stu- dent body altered laws that will be followed perhaps for generations yet to come. by: Katrena Colson Advisor Lynn Stroble suggests possible constitutional changes, such as allow- ing students who have failed a course to run for office.

In November students agreed to bring foodstuff to contribute to a Thanksgiving basket for a needy fam- ily in the comnmunity. This activity fulfilled the principle of service while if also strengthened each member's pledge to develop the principle of character. As a means to strengthen leader- ship, a district rally was held for all NHS representatives.

Providing an excellent challenge to strengthen character, the National Honor Society was a title that fre- quently reminded the members of their pledge to enhance personal de- velopment. One of the criteria to be met before acceptance into the or- ganization was the quality of charac- ter which dominated all other as- pects. Not only was a member carefully selected by members of the faculty, but he also assumed the re- sponsibility of retaining this charac- ter throughout the period of his membership. Though the demands seemed tir- ing and the work seemed endless, participation in the NHS proved to be an excellent learning opportunity and beneficial to all members. by Katrena Colson New members Johnny Bell, Leah Bell, and Vernisa Bodison listen intently to welcoming speeches as they are inducted into the Na- tional Honor Society. 24 Clubs Front row: Rudean Farmer, Robert Farmer, Melanie Colson, Amy Campbell, Rosie Bright, Vernisa Bodison, Leah Bell, Johnny Bell, Ale- jandro Barron, Katrina Avant, Christie Allen.

NHS ?25 URN IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION II For One AND ONE High school is a many-splendored thing. The question is, what makes it so special ? Indisputa- ble, the answer is people. The school itself is nothing but a cold, lifeless building constructed of bricks, mortar and steel. Adding students, teachers, and administrators to this shell of an educational institution breathes life into the in- animate object. Each individual brings with him his unique experience, and the sum of those parts equals a whole different from any other. With a school population made up of rural and urban students, tastes in everything from music and food to modes of dress varied widely. De- spite these variations, everyone had one thing in common—school. When one student or a group of students made an accomplishment from winning a schol- arship or a ball game to making an A, that achievement was shared by their classmates. In FOR ALL the same way, disappointments were also shared. When the Band of Blue won its second state championship in four years, everyone rejoiced. When star football players Moses Bowman lost control of his school bus and shattered his pel- vis, there was acommon sense of loss. Not only did it cropple the football team, but also, more importantly, it was feared that it would cripple Moses. When he fought against the odds and walked again, a wave of joy and relief flooded the hearts of his friends. In the end, a bond was formed among the 1700 students. As the years go by, these ties may be stretched but never severed. During the Valentine's Dance, Friends Kim McNeil and Tim Ben- i Liz Parrish and Mike Hiott find a | son have some fun during the senior quiet corner to share a few spe- photography session, cial moments. 126 People Divider Miriam Belcher and John Ste- phens were selected as the two Most Likely to Succeed from the Senior class.

When freshman Guss Bodison ar- rived at Walterboro High School in the fall of 1983, he reached out for the leadership role of freshman class president and embroiled himself in the high school world of politics. Four years later he was still making contributions to the high school world. He now made a contribution as a musician—a drum major for the Band of Blue. However, being drum major was not the only donation to music given by Guss, he offered to WALD listeners music of his own. Guss' interest in music started at the age of four, when he first began to play the piano. His inspiration to write came from Dan Bodison. Guss expressed, If it had not been for Dan I could not have done it. An- I other influence was his favorite pop rock star, Lionel Richie. In preparation for the recording Guss organized a band with the help of friend, Amy Alexander. The band consisted of Paul Seigler, drums; Tim i Smoak, keyboard; and Guss on the piano and vocals. The song entitled MORE THAN FRIENDS gave Guss’ secret talent of composing music and lyrics away. The excitement of production was strenuous and at times hectic, but through hard work and a lot of en- couragement from friends Guss' per- sistance paid off and he obtained a copy right for his original work. by Cynthia Salley Scott Warren Albertine Washington Cherry Washington Deangela Washington Ladon K.

Since the age of seven, Kelli has undergone several heart sur- geries. Catching even the slightest cold usually meant a week or more out of school. Yet Kelli managed to maintain an excellent average and a rank of fourth in the junior class. Drawing and painting took up a large portion of Kelli's time. She has entered art contests since the seventh grade and won three first-place ribbons, one third-place ribbon, and an honorable mention in the 1986 Sidewalk Art Show at the C S Bank. After graduating, Kelli also planned to attend an art college. But Kelli admitted, “Other than these abnormali- ties in my life, I am just a normal sixteen-year-old girl that likes the beach, going shopping, dancing, music, and guys.” by Shawna Davis Kelli Stallings manages to find time for her drawing and painting. Kelli shows off her spirit during spirit week. Juniors Junior Leaders With the challenge of spon- soring a superb prom for the senior class, the junior officers showed an amazing amount of vigor and energy. Much money was needed to cover prom ex- penses, so they sold raffle tick- ets and held a dance which proved successful. When the date of the prom was in controversy, the officers had to wait patiently for Mr. Pence’s final word. President Cynthia Salley remarked, “It's been a challenge ' and added, ’’but the difficulty has brought on responsibility.” Other activities also over- whelmed the officers, Rhonda Robison, a varsity basketball player, admitted, It was hard to manage my time.” But all of their hard work prevailed, and the prom was a success. The Junior class officers are Vernisa Bodison, secretary; Rhonda Robinson, V. President; Cynthia Salley, President; and Katrena Colson, treasurer. President Cynthia Salley was instru- mental in raising prom funds. In addi- tion to being Junior class President, she also served on the Paw Print staff. Here, Amy Alexander assists Cynthia with a community spread. 154 People Tamara Dennis Kathy Drawdy Priscilla Drayton Shana Drayton Sheila Drayton Tammy Driggers Michelle L.

Rings captured all the memo- ries and care-free days during the last years of school. As juniors began to decide on the type and style of ring they wanted, Josten's came to the school to show the many varie- ties of rings available. Some de- cided on the traditional blue stone with a carved bulldog, while others chose elaborate stones and emblems. But all se- lected the ring they felt would reflect the best days of their lives. Tim Smoak reflected, “I will treasure my ring for years to come.” by Shawna Davis One of the biggest decisions faced by juniors is choosing a class ring. Michael King displays one of the essen- tial parts of being an upperclassman, his class ring. Juniors Example of Excellence Rhonda Robinson was “per- haps one of the finest athletes as well as one of the finest stu- dents in the school” as Marsha Coe called her. And Coach Coe knew her better than most. She coached Rhonda throughout her years as star on the track squad, where she broke the school record for throwing the shotput with an incredible ef- fort of 36 feet, II inches, and the basketball team. Rhonda placed nationally in the shotput event while competing in the Junior Olympics. As well as excelling in the field of athletics, Rhonda was also a standout in academics. She was in the top ten percent of the junior class. She was also a member of the National Honor Society, vice-president of the junior class, and a member of the WHS singers. Rhonda exemplified the de- termination and excellence that was strived for by every- one. But Rhonda went that ex- tra mile. She was a role model in the classroom as well as on the basketball court. With determination glaring in her eyes, Rhonda Robinson prepares to throw the discus for a mind-boggling distance.

People Class Humor During a hectic junior year, relief was needed from teach- ers and term papers. People like Marcus Townsend, Yolanda Pinckney, Micheal Fennessy, and Byron Miller provided a temporary break during these stressful times. Because of their unique ability to amuse their classmates, they were voted most humorous. Yet not everyone found them amusing-such as the teachers. While many students laughed away the entire period, teach- ers ground their teeth and tried to maintain order. Mrs. Allen commented, “Sometimes stu- dents who try to amuse others find themselves sitting in the hall. When asked about her comi- cal abilities, Yolanda Pinckney smirked, “I find great satisfac- tion in making others laugh. It makes me feel good and all those around me feel good.” In general, students feel that teachers should relax a little and allow restless teenagers to have their fun. Byron Miller added, “It feels great to cut-up in class and making people laugh. Sometimes I end up making the teachers laugh too!” by Shawna Davis Donald Longnion tries desperately to attract the attention of his classmates. Juniors Sophomores The Best Dance Ever Sophomore class officers Angie Elliot, Tonya Lloyd, Fay Olds, and Rosie Bright helped to make the Spring Dance possible. The Spring Dance was the main concern of the sophomore class officers and they worked all year toward completing that goal. The dance was held May 1, 1987. The class of- ficers were president, Tonya Lloyd; vice presi- dent, Fay Olds; treasurer, Angie Elliot; and secre- tary, Rosie Bright. Tonya commented, “We hope to make this the best Spring Dance WHS ever had.” Mrs. Mary Clark, one of the sophomore class advi- sors, felt that this year's sophomore class officers had more leadership abili- ty. Other sophomore class advisors included Mr. James Bodison, Mrs. Joan O’Briant, and Mrs. Joyce Williams. The class officers held a talent show in March. Ev- eryone was allowed to sign up and cash prizes were awarded to the over- all winners. In addition to working to be successful leaders of their class, they received support from their fellow classmates. Thus, this helped them to make a successful year possible. by Jon Lohr Laulita Adams Lisa Adams Tonnette Adams Jodi Addison Ulysce Aiken Shandel Aikens Christie Allen Erica Allen Leron Allen David Ard Wister Lynn Ard Georgette Arnold Michael Artlip Mark A.

What is there to do when you want to get away from everything and let your imagination run wild? How about an interesting game of Dungeons and Dragons? That’s what Curtis Robinson, Peter Lommen, Rodney Stanley and friends played on weekends when they wanted to get away from it all. Dungeons and Dragons is a game in which the controller or Dungeon Master cre- ates a setting and a plot for players and their characters to go through. The setting can be anything from a for- est or city to a dungeon or castle. The players then go through this setting, trying to gain wealth and exper- ience by fighing hideous and supernatural beings. Dungeon Master Curtis Robinson enjoyed the game because he liked to see the players’ reactions to certain events. Peter Lommen and Rodney Stanley enjoyed the game almost for the same reason. Peter said he en- joyed the game because it allows me to get away from reality and let my imagina- tion take over.” Rodney agreed, saying, It gives me the freedom to do anything that I can’t do in real life. by Jon Lohr Robert Farmer Quincey Farmer Kim Fennell Edward Ferguson Anderson Fields Chyvonne Fields Allan Fletcher Charles Frasier Jeannie Frasier Angela Frederick Angie Fryar Amy Fowler Thomas Frasier Connie Getz Madeline Gallagher Robert Gamble Robert Gantt Donna Gardner Myra Garrett Tina Garris George Gaydon Michael Generett Manjokie Gethers Ronald Gethers Sophomore 1,000 and Still Collecting Literature and English books are not the only reading materials that Michael Portereiko brings to Mrs. Blacker’s English class. Michael Portereiko, a sophomore, enjoyed his col- lective life. His favorite hob- by was comic book collecting which he had been doing for the past four years. He pos- sessed over 1,000. His ol- dest comic book was the 1963 issue of number nine- teen of The Fantastic Four which was valued at $14.00. His most valuable comic book was issue number eigh- teen of DC Comics Presents which was valued at $25.00. His most favorite title in the collection was the Justice League of America. He liked comic book collecting be- cause he felt most of the sto- ries the writers wrote about could pertain to events of ev- eryday life. He also liked the use of the writers' vocabu- lary and characters in the stories that spoke different languages. Michael's other hobby was flying which he had been do- ing since November. He had also qualified to join the Air Force Academy. When asked what he planned to do in the future, he stated, “I plan to get my pilot's license before graduating from High School and I later plan to join the Air Force. by Jon Lohr Nicole Gilmore Tiffany Gist Cheryl Givens Scott Givens Mark Glover Patricia Glover Dennis Goff Jeff Grant Alicia Green William Green Gregory Green Christine Greene Sarah Griffin Curtis Groves Sandra Groves Charles Gruber Tammy Gunno Anne Hall Anne Hall Terrance Hamilton Annette Hampleton Pam Hand Kim Hare Carole Harrison 166 People Don Harrison Randel Harrison William Harrison Allen Hardwin Michael Haynes Jim Herndon Chris Hickman Clifton Hiers Jacob Hiers James Hiers Rodney Hiers Elizabeth Hiott Kristy Hiott William Hiott Christopher Holmes Nicole Holmes Norman Holmes Stacy Hudson Tommy Hudson Dorita Hughes Kevin Hughes Stacy Huggins Vikki Jackson Cathy Jakes Rosemary James Ericka Jenkins Gregory Jenkins Sonya Jenkins Alethia Johnson Derrick Johnson John Johnson Lee Johnson Terrance Johnson Jeanie Jones Michelle Jones Tisha Jones William Jones Calvin Judge Tracy Judy Sheila Kinard JoAnn Kinsey Gwen Koger Sophomores Miguel Koger Andy Kubik Bernard Lane Darrell Langston Amy Ledford Jay Lemacks Wendy Leonard Gwen Levant Sabrina Levine Monica Linder Tonya Lloyd Jon Lohr Peter Lommen Donna Longnion Johnnie Longnion Sally Lovette Kim Lybrand Teddy Mabry Billy MacCumbee Brad MacLean Darrel Manigult Erica Manigo Letha Manigo Robert Manigo Valerie Manigo Allison Martin Eugene Middleton Rita Middleton Sharon Middleton Stacy Middleton Wendy Miles Christy Miley Angelique Miller Rachel Miller Deon Mitchel Odessa Mitchei James Mixson James Mixson Jeffrey Mixson Rhett Mixson Tim Mizeli Darrell MicCranie People Top of the Class AH the time and effort Chrissy Greene expends in being studious and studying diligently paid off. Chrissy is ranked number one in the soph- omore class. “The hard work paid off,” was how Chrissy Greene felt about her sophomore year. She was number one in the class. Recalling feel- ings toward the amount of study time that was needed in order to keep a number one class rank, Chrissy commented, “a lot of time was needed in order to pre- pare for tests, but I tried not to take everything all at once. I just took it one step at a time.” Chrissy's favorite sub- jects were biology and Eng-1 lish. Mrs. Blocker, her Eng- lish teacher, pointed out that “conscientousness and self-motivation were forces that drove her to ex- cel. Other than her aca- demic talent, she was very personable and consider- ate.” Her favorite hobbies were swiming and playing the piano. During the year, she was her homeroom representa- tive for Student Council. She was also a member of the National Honor Society and a member of the Junior Academic Team. After graduation, she plans to go to college to study medi- cine. by Jon Lohr Ronnie McCulough Graig McKelvey Pam McLeod Lane McLeod Jarviece McMillan Jeremy McMillan James McTeer Jerome McWilliams Lucius Moore Thomas Morrall Mary Morris Tony Morris William Morris Christy Moseley Travis Mosley James Mott Chyrea Murdaugh Leslie Murdaugh Shannon Murdaugh Scottie Murdaugh Violet Murdaugh Renee Myers Kristi Nelson Theron Nelson Sophomores Prom Plans Changed by Drug Awareness Week One of the most impor- tant, if not the most empha- sized week of the school year was the National Drug Awareness Week. During this week, students were told of the effects of drugs and alco- hol on the human body. During presentations on drugs and alcohol, two types of drugs were mentioned. These drugs were uppers and downers. Uppers tend to make the body active and alert while downers tend to make the body act slower.

After one of the drug awareness presen- tations, Jennifer Chipukites stated, “I felt scared after seeing one of the films and this gave me a lasting im- pression about what I planned to do after the prom. Surveys showed that the sophomore year was the peak year for the trying of al- cohol and drugs.

Tommy and Arnie Farmer are surprised by the camera while admiring Tommy’s favorite board. When asked what made classes bearable, most soph- omores were in complete ac- cord: the answer was humor. Class clowns provided wel- come laughs for classmates and nagging headaches for disgruntled teachers. Christy Mosely, a sopho- more cut-up, when asked why she provided the variety in her classes, retorted that “I cannot enjoy class by just sitting and listening to a lec- ture so I always try and . . . well, throw a monkey wrench into the teacher’s machinery and make class a little more fun.” Tommy Duffie also tried to and the liven up classes. “I don't know why I say some of the things I say,” commented Tommy. “I just listen to the teacher and suddenly I blurt out some wisecrack-its like a re- flex action.” Humor in class was wel- comed by all as the daily monotany brought everyone to the point of virtual non-ex- istence.

The Freshman class officers’ main goal was to plan a trip to Six Flags or Carowinds at the end of the year. The offices were Vincent Smalls, presi- dent; Terrence Williams, vice president; Jill Dowdy, secretary; and Kim Dandridge, treasurer. The officers met once every nine weeks. They sold roses to raise money. They also planned a lip sync and a dance to fund their trip. Jill Dowdy stated, “We planned other fundraisers to sponsor the trip, also. Mrs. Cynthia Sarvis, Mrs. Sylvia Gale, Mrs. Eliza Williams, and Mr. William Wrighten were advisors to the officers. When asked if she found being an advisor difficult, Mrs. Sarvis replied, “If you have good officers, it is not difficult at all.” The class officers strived to fulfill their duties as well as their plans for their trip.

An advanced English class was offered to a group of select freshmen. The selection was based on grades and CTBS test scores. The class, taught by Mrs. Joan O’Briant, consisted of twenty-four students. Mrs. O’Briant found it inspiring to chal- lenge the students.” Jill Dowdy wished that more people could be included in the advanced class because it is not wholly a matter of ability, but one must just want to do it.” Compared to the college preparatory classes, the workload of the class was much harder. More independent study was required. Because the stu- dents in the advanced English took 9th grade Eng- lish in the 8th grade, they were a year ahead, which will enable them to take advanced 12th grade English in the 11th grade. The class studied a variety of subjects through- out the year, such as King Arthur, Shakespeare, and Julius Caesar.

Students Make History Come Alive Mrs. Anne Funderburk’s world history students were given a chance to use their creative ability and make history come alive with their history projects. They were asked to choose their favorite period of history and to do a model or a report that dealt with that period. Besides being a tradition, the purpose of the projects, according to Mrs. Funderburk, was to get students to do in-depth study. It gave them freedom to do something creative. The students were expected to put hours into their projects and to do a great deal of re- search. Weapons in warfare, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, pyramids, costumes through the years, music in history, a guillotine, and a newspaper of the typi- cal 1800’s are just a few projects that the students planned to do. by Christie Allen Nicole Moultrie Keshia Murray Kim Lenson Wendell Nettles Keith Newton Kelly Nixon Derek Oliver Shannon O’Quinn Rose Orbach Richard Osgood David Lee Owens Ann Padgett Sarah K.

He allowed them to express their views and opinions of cur- rent issues. Mr. Cranford put on skits to help the student better comprehend the meaning beneath the surface of the sub- ject matter. His students felt that he was more than just a teacher. Kiki Kinard called Mr. Cranford a trip. While not in school, Mr. Cranford liked to help out with the activities of the Teen Action Committee. He was a valuable asset in the organization’s many weekend dances and other activities. Mr. Cranford also had his serious side. He was a con- stant spectator in county council meetings as well as school board meetings. He also encouraged his students to attend these meetings by adding points to the nine- weeks’ grade for each meeting attended. Some students earned as many as 24 points over the semester. Mr. Cranford was an admired figure in school. Tim Sim- mons called him the most innovative teacher I have ever experienced. by Cathi Mizell Showing his impeccable taste, Mr. Cranford is shown stealing a kiss from the Homecoming Queen, also known as Mr. J.arvis. 188 People Edward Carter—Eng I Steve Carter—Ass’t Principal Alphonso Chisolm—Eng Hi Luvenia Chisolm—Special Ed.

Educator From Afar “Education is a privilege in my country. Here, students take it for granted.” That was the way science teacher Mr. M’Murthi told the story. A native of Kenya, Africa, Mr. M’Murthi, came to the U.S. in 1978. A graduate of Egogi Teacher’s College in Kenya, he also attended USC, Clem- son University, Lander College and the Citadel here in the states. He also took courses at South Carolina State Col- lege in preparation for his goal—to be a college professor. He felt his job as a high school teacher was just a stepping stone toward this goal. Mr. M’Murthi spent his spare time gardening, jogging and playing tennis. Most of all he enjoyed spending time with his wife and three month old son. Mr. M’Murthi had very strong views toward education. To him it was something a person works hard to obtain. Education is not given to an individual on a silver platter. Mr. M’Murthi felt that the students in the United States do not take advantage of educational opportunities. by Cynthia Salley One of Mr. M’Murthi students demonstrates the lackadaisical attitude toward education that Mr. M’Murthi strives to correct Faculty and staff Student involvement increases with new administration Starting off the new year with a new head prin- cipal, the administration and faculty adjusted well to the change. The adap- tations brought about some significant differ- ences in the general atti- tude of students and fac- ulty alike. This year there was an increase in assem- blies, rallies, and fund- raisers all of which showed a marked rise in student participation. When the challenge was issued which brought about the Senior-Faculty basketball game, the stu- dents rose to the occasion and rallied to support No need for a walkie-talkie Mrs. Helen Bodison, assistant admin- istrator in charge of attendance and discipline, sits and talks with Principal Bob Pence. Mr. Barnhill, assistant adminis- trator responsible for the Stu- dent Council, and Mr. Anderson, Curriculum Coordinator, discuss the activities of the Common’s Area during lunch. their team. Turnout was high even though the band students were on the trip to New York. The game was close, but after some mad scrambling the faculty men closed the score and beat the seniors by 1 point. Besides the change in the activity schedule, school pride was stressed and students who ex- celled academically were given the recognition they deserved. Mr. Barnhill worked closely with the Student Council and the various class officers in or- der to arrange the Region- al Student Council Work- shop held at Walterboro High this year. The Na- tional Honor Society As- sembly was also held at WHS this year. In short, because of the efforts of Mr. Pence, Mr. Barnhill, Mr. Anderson, Mr. Carter, Mrs. Bodison, and the faculty, WHS en- joyed a year which showed improvement in every aspect. Attendance, participation, academic achievement, morale, and extracurricular activities all reflected this rise in spirits and expectations. The year was truly a turn in the right direction. 192 People Tiny Herndon and Lisa Smith try desperately to persuade Mr. Carter to dismiss their parking violation.

A GIVE AND TAKE RELATIONSHIP When not spending time in school or on schol- arly pursuits, students were out contributing to and gaining from their community. The commu- nity provided students with recreational facili- ties, job establishments, and many religious af- filiations. After school jobs gave students the money they needed for the extras. Businesses, such as McDonalds, Burger King, Winn Dixie and Food Lion, hired many student workers. Some busin- esses took advantage of the law that allowed privately owned businesses to pay students less than minimum wage. Under this law Colleton Drug was able to hire several high school stu- dents. The Teen Action Committee was organized to plan events for teens within their community. T.A.C. has held lock-ins, dances and DJ. Spin- offs. Several of the grocery stores in town have donated food items for these events. An annual highlight has been the Rice Festival. High school students particiatted as Rice Plant- ers, who served as guides and public communi- cators during the week long activities. On Sunday night, most local churches had programs for the youth. The larger denomina- tions such as the Methodist and Baptist had their own groups, while the Presbyterian, Lutheran, and Episcopalian churches had a combined youth group. Some of the activities of these were ski trips, pizza suppers, movie trips and community service projects to the hospital and nursing home. by Joan Johnson A definite Colleton County Debbie McCranie, in awe of Q107 scene is at the county court- DJ.

It makes me feel good knowing that I did something to help someone else These statements were made by several students who gave blood Oc- tober 23. Sponsored by the Student Coun- cil, the Red Cross unit of Charleston held its annual blood drive with the help and participation of students. In order to donate blood, students had to be 17 years of age and weigh at least 110 DOUnrR During the school year, the Red Cross received a large number of do- nations from high school students alone. “This is very important, commented a participating nurse, “because traditionally during the summer, our blood supply is very low. Thanks to students, we are able to accumulate blood during the year. A total of 78 students and teachers gave blood. For some students, giv- ing blood was a first-time exper- ience. Senior Ronald Stewart typi- fied feelings about giving blood for the first time when he commented, At first I was afraid because of the sight of it all, but it was all right. It was not the same for senior Yolanda Pringle. She firmly asserted, I have tried to give blood twice, but both times I have not been successful. Then there were those who could be classified as the heroes and hero- ines. Malachi Snipes represented that position well. He boasted, Giv- ing blood was nothing. by Cynthia Salley CHARLES CAMPBELL willingly donates blood for a good cause. Not only that, but he got out of class for thirty minutes! TO COMBAT the serious statewide blood shortage, Mark Lemacks helps by giving his fair share”. The Red Cross offices in Charles- ton made weekly appeals for donations and extended office hours to facilitate their bene- factors during the crisis.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was a black civil rights activist who helped the people of this nation gain rights in areas in which they were discrimi- nated. Colleton County residents ob- served Dr. King’s birthday on Janu- ary 18, 1987, by having their first parade in his honor. The parade was sponsored by the Shriners of the Arabian Temple 139. Through the cooperation of the members of the community, the parade was a success. Colletonian Caroline Fryar, who observed the pa- rade, expressed, “1 think the parade was a great success.” She also add- ed, “It was a day to remember.’’ Par- ticipants in the parade ranged from a wide variety of organizational floats to the WHS Band of Blue. Awarded best float was the Kennedy Child Care Center. The float acknowl- edged several important points that were used in Dr. King’s fight for rights. The parade not only commemo- rated the life of Dr. King, but also his dream that has finally come togeth- er: equality and rights for all regard- less of race, sex, or religion. by Cynthia Salley Community 20s OoMMiMty OoivwuRity OowMUwfy CoMMUwtty GowMUKtfy CowwiMu.

His em- phasis was not only on American government, but on state and lo- cal government as well. He set up a system by which students at- tended County Council meetings to receive extra credit. Though the system may sound very easy, it was a little more than meets the eye. In addition to attending meet- ings, the students stayed for an hour and wrote a one-page report on the list of things that were dis- cussed. Mr. Cranford also gave the stu- dents the privilege of having speakers of their choice on Fri- days. Extra credit was given for each invitation the student made. Students invited members of County Council, police officers, or others who dealt with the coun- ty's government or daily oper- ations. The American government classes of Mr. Cranford worked to- ward registering students that were elibible to vote. Senior Joan Johnson expressed that she was glad someone took interest in student voting and the community.

The idea for a library in Colleton County was origin- ally started by the wealthy planters’ sons who had been to Europe to be educated. They formed the Walterborough Library Society which existed from 1824 until 1836. From that time until 1925, a library society existed in some form in Colleton County. In 1925 Colleton Memorial Library officially became a free public library under the direct management of the Trustees of the Walterboro Library Society. To- day after a $3,000,000 face-lift, the Colleton County Memorial Library has the second highest percentage of registered library users among South Carolina li- braries. A remarkable 62% of the total population of Colleton County hold library cards. That accounts for 19,652 regular users. Last year the library boast- ed a total circulation of material of 107,793. Today the library has a vast selection of 63,041 volumes, Matt Zielke enters the newly renovated library. subscribes to 108 magazines and nine newspapers, keeps 191 micro-forms, 250 cassettes, 4 records, 572 film strips, and 28 art prints. Besides having the material, the library is active in bringing the public's attention to its resources. Art exhibits, poetry read- ings, music recitals, and various other exhibits ar- ranged in cooperation with the Recreation Commis- sion fill a busy season for the library goer. Besides these extracurricular activities, the librarians also work with students who depend on the library as a valuable term paper resource. Teachers bring their classes to the library to learn skills in finding informa- tion and using the card catalong.

One activity the committee set up was a Lock-In, which permitted stu- dents to stay in the Recreation Com- mission gymnasium from 8:00 pm on a Friday until Saturday morning. The students as well as chaperons en- joyed every minute of it. The com- mittee also put on a Disc Jockey spin-off contest that really went over well. Amateur DJ’s from all over the county participated. The committee gave prizes for each winner. Scott Adams, along with friends, won the D.J. Spin-off. The committee will continue to support the cause of youth entertainment. by Cynthia Salley Friends, Radi Clytus and Randy Butler help Scott celebrate his victory on the DJ spin off sponsored by the Teen Action Committee. Scott Adams, a junior, has been working as a disc jockey for a year. He has served as a DJ for nu- merous dances and parties.

For the first time in the his- tory of Colleton County theater, such famous names as Elvis, the Su- premes, the Beach Boys, and the Four Tops performed under the same billing. Walterboro High School students who partitipated were Ka- trina Avant, Billy Jones, Carla Law- son, Kim McNeil, Julia Patterson, Nicky Britt, Tanya Snow, and Amy Wright. Senior Kim McNeil per- formed a soto “My Guy” which was a real show stopper. Kim commented, “I really enjoyed performing in Vari- ety this year. It was a lot of work and a tot of fun!” Beach Boy medleys and Supremes memories filled the air, and the look of enjoyment was un- mistakable on the faces of the per- formers. This year both the performance level and the crowd turnout were great. The new lobby at Hampton Street School added to the air of fes- tivity which cloaked the event. Hope- fully, the same results will be seen in years to come. By Amy Alexander 50DWIN LDING SUPPL' WALTERBORO. S.C. Laser Godwin enjoys the sunshine from the cab of his truck.

This program made the individual's effort its goal, and everyone who par- ticipated came out a winner. Junior, Leah Bell commented “I knew some of the kids already from working at Camp David, but each time I work with them I learn a little more about myself. It makes me more appreciative. This sentiment is one repeatedly expressed by vol- unteers and teachers working with these brave athletes. In this event sponsors, participants, teachers, and parents all had a good time and came away with a feeling of accom- plishment. by Amy Alexander I Determination is plainly written on the face of this young competitor.

There they learned how to imporve THE PAW PRINT, the South-Eastern ranked book. The staff had a large number of returning members with knowledge and ex- perience, This was the first year for co- editors. This worked out great since there was no rivalry be- tween us, and we complimented each other. This was the second year that the journalism staff in- cluded newspaper, broadcasting, and video. When we wer- en’t busy with all these things, we were creating a jam- up yearbook. PAW PRINT 1987, Volume XVII, was printed by Herff- Jones of Montgom- ery, Alabama, with the guidance and ex- pertise of yearbook specialist, Steve Kar- elitz. The book was printed on 80 lb. Bordeaux, glossed enamel paper. Type face used for all copy and captions was News Gothic, Type face for headlines, opening, closing, and dividers was Chats- worth Heavy; for Student Life, New- berry; for Academ- ics, Spartan Medi- um; main headline, and subhead, Spar- tan Light Italic. Type face for sports’ headlines was Mead Bold; for Clubs, Brush; People, News Gothic; and Commu- nity, Bingham Script. The cover was lith- ographed on 120 weight cover materi- al with four-color processing. End- sheets were printed with JH 320 tur- quoise on a white, gray, background. Five hundred books were sold at a cost of $20.00 each. We would like to thank the PRESS AND STANDARD for the life-saving pho- tos, and a special thanks to Rob Novit for his personal ad- vice, assistance, and experience. Thanks to Mrs. Janis Blocker for all of her “constructive criticism, though at times we didn’t act as if we appreciated it. If it weren’t for Mrs. Blocker’s quick eye hundreds of mis- spelled words and grammatical errors would have gone un- detected. And a special thank-you to Mrs. Marilyn Zielke for her dedication to this publication and its staff. Mrs. Zielke’s maternal devotion pulled us through the stress of meeting deadlines. She knew when to apply pres- sure, but she always had a kind word and a pat on the back for one's accomplish- ments. As we senior staff members gra- duate, we realize that this relationship between Mrs. Zielke and us is what we will miss the most. Mrs. Zielke, we love You!

Audrey Hamilton—secre- tary As secretary of my class have been able to be involved in more school activities Margie Thomas—Senior class president My senior year has been the most un- forgetable of my school years. Being president of my class has made this year more fulfilling because it gave me the opportunity to be- come closer to the members of the graduating class. Sandra Brown— “Being a senior is the best year of high school because you are supe- rior to all.” Stepping forward ... The Right Direction Although the outlook was dim midway through the year, the problems seemed to be in the past with the beginning of the second semester. The confidence that was lost during the football team’s disap- pointing season was regained tenfold when the Band of Blue took top honors at the state marching band festival. The band members traveled to Columbia for the festival which pitted them against the best of the best in South Carolina and they emerged champions— they truly were number one! Academics made great strides as members of the Advance; Placement History, English, and Calculus classes sturggled thro_g' college-level work. In May, these students took the Nationa -- exam to determine whether or not they would receive col ege credit for their hard work and dedication. As AP English stuce--: Miriam Belcher said, “It doesn’t really matter if we get the cred ; - not. We’ve made it through the course already, and if we have :: take it again, we’ve had the experience to do well.” mtm A Turn in the Right Direction Senior players show their pride at a pep rally held for the football players. Ladon Washington, Willie Brown, Jamal Bo- dison, and Johnny Williams, were just a few of the people who made this year a turn in the right direction. Sophomore Kim Hare strikes a pensive pose as the end of the year approaches and comtemplates the future. Unlike this year’s seniors, before Kim gradu- ates she will be required to take the exit exam. The Right Direction The Academic Team took the first-place silver bowl for the third year in a row. Advisor Jan is Blocker quipped that her aim; was to “get enough of the bowls for the whole team to eat cereal!” The A-Team went to the quar- ter-finals in the televised Winthrop Chal- lenge. Based on these accomplishments, the team was invited to compete in the Myrtle Beach Brain Games and the Knowledge Mas- ter Open at Ohio State University. The Broadcast Club won big at the South Carolina Scholastic Broadcasters' Conven- tion in Columbia. The members of the team were finalists in every category they entered; Tim O'Briant. president of the state organi- zation, won Broadcaster of the Year. In the end, all these accomplishments along with those not listed here, brought the year to an end on a positive note. In the final analysis, the year really proved to be a turn in the right direction. by Tim O'briant 240 The End ft, ; academics editor; business manager; Pilch, clubs, not pictured are the ; Randell Mixon, stu- Amy Alexander, stu- Randy Beach, sports d Jon Lohr, photogra- AFF
