National news reflected changing times through coverage of Skylab and the crisis in Iran, the soaring cost of gold and gas at a dollar a gallon, the Strategic Arms Limitation Treaty (SAL1 II) and short-lived “Draft Kennedy” presidential campaigns. Locally, a shopping mall and a new joint vocational school building made News-Watchman headlines. But in school, we talked about faculty shake-ups, locked restrooms and C-lunch. Shaking our heads as we remembered a Waverly that didn’t even have a McDonald’s, we wondered what had happened... Right Before Our Eyes 500 East Second Street Waverly, Ohio 45690 Published by NOVEL Staff Current Events July. Plastic helmets, “survival kits” and T-shirts with targets commanding “Skylab: land here” were part of the Chicken Little craze that swept the country when NASA announced that the Skylab was falling. The space station fell over the desolate back country of Western Australia after weeks of worry and speculation. July. In a surprise move. President Carter asked for the resignations of all Cabinet officers and accepted five. The “massacre” was followed by staff evaluation forms, grading lesser White House workers on skill, personality and dedication. July.

After a record 175 days in space, two Soviet cosmonauts returned to Earth. 2 OfViniuj Up in the morning and off to school: summer vacation ended and Waverly’s students — roughly 700 of them—started another school year. Driving, walking, riding the bus, they came from as far as 25 miles to the school’s main building, built in 1931 and housing 24 classrooms, a study hall, a library, a cafeteria, an auditorium and the Waverly City Schools administrative offices; and the “new gym,” a physical education facility built in 1974, housing two classrooms, a chemistry, lab and locker rooms as well as the spacious gym. School was also a football field, tennis courts, two baseball -softball diamonds and a new supply building built by students from the junior carpentry class from the vocational school. In front, a relatively new (1973) parking lot. To the side, a garage for the system’s 23 buses. Inside Waverly High School: chaos for the first week. □ Left: Senior Lilly Thompson.

The usual complaints of “I signed up for that and got this” and ‘‘When are we gonna get lockers?” This first week was hectic to say the least. Mr. David Surrey. Mr. John Boyer and Mrs. Doris Young worked to switch class and lunch periods until finally everyone in every class had some place to sit and the old dual lunch gave was to the new three lunck system with A-lunch, B-lunch and C-lunch squeezed in between. Business as usual for classes picked up immediately. Juniors started magazine sales, with a $4500 sales goal, to raise money for the prom. Sophomores ordered class rings and seniors had the troublesome business of pictures, pictures, pictures. The perennial financial problems became even worse with inflation and the rising cost of gold. Freshmen, of course, just had to adjust to high school life: green excuse slips, pink excuse slips, bells, tardy bells and “ten-minute” bells. □ Right: Yearbook pkkup day Opposite: Junior Rick McCloud: Vernon Beatty: freshmen 1 ini Breitenbach.

Eager to rekindle the excitement from last year, students jumped wholeheartedly into the rallies and revived last year’s surprise Rowdy Section. Natoli, one of the nine new teachers in the high school, shook up the football record with our first back-to-back home wins in ten years and our first Homecoming victory since 1973. “Just one thing—get fired up!” Mrs. Craumer told the pep club. Everyone got into the act. Cheerleaders brought cakes for coaches and cookies for players. For one cheering contest, representatives from each class had to sit on blocks of ice. Coach Smith praised the Rowdy Section as Waverly’s “sixth man.” □ Right: Junior Joe Spinning Opposite: Varsity starter Rick Teeters; senior Lori Wothen with parents on football Parents’ Night; cross country runners; Carol Nickell.

Inflation was up and Ted Kennedy was out. Into the 80’s we went with sex goddess” Bo Derek and New Wave rock, roller skates and economy cars, designer jeans and double-pierced ears. We were ready for anything to happen... Right Before Our Eyes 8 Opening hen the nation's biggest star is a ham like Miss Piggy and the argument of the day is rock vs. disco, you wonder what’s going on. But it seemed perfectly natural to hear that a muppet might be up for an Academy Award, and a “Disco Demolition” was no big surprise. If you went to a movie, you probably went to see Steve Martin in The Jerk, Jane Fonda and Robert Redford in The Electric Horseman or. the original television cast in Star Trek: the Motion Picture. On TV, Saturday Night Live and The Best of Saturday Night captured a big student audience. But when you were sitting in the classroom, these things didn’t seem as close to home as nine new teachers, a shipment of new desks crowding the halls, or the “No Key, No Pee” syndrome (locked restrooms). □ Left: Juniors in yearbook hall.

Looking back, you remember what happened. Homecoming, with its cowboy fashions, rated “special.” The effigy, in the school’s front yard, resulted in a mock funeral for Athens Bulldogs. The dream became reality when the football team won the game. Prom presented “Always and Forever” for juniors and seniors. Again in the old gym, the dance symbolized the closing of the year for seniors. At graduation, clad in ora,nge and black caps and gowns, the seniors left. Almost too early...

From the Power Jacked” sign in the hallway to Queen Tammy's Oh-my-God” after being crowned, it was a special Homecoming week. Friday morning provided a setting for a spirit-drive. School hallways were papered with Power Jacked” and Stomp ’Em” signs, but two crosses planted by Athens supporters aroused more spirit—and a thirst for revenge. And. of course, early dismissal for the parade was a morale booster. The parade—band members, football players, candidates, attendants and escorts in Corvettes, and floats pulled by truckloads of students—wound through town along a different route. Obviously a mistake of the parade's leaders (policemen), the new route angered townspeople who found themselves on the wrong block to see floats. The evening's parade, before the Athens-Waverly game, went better, traveling only around the football field. But the night's main event was half-time: candidates. attendants and the announcing of the new Homecoming Queen. 1978 Queen Beth Thompson, holding the crown coveted by the three senior candidates, stepped out onto the field and wandered casually behind the girls. The crown found its queen, though, and cameras flashed and the crowd cheered. For anyone who had missed the crowning, it was obvious that jumping, squealing, giggling Tammy Fyffe had made it: Homecoming Queen 1979. The thing I remember most is my crown kept falling down on my nose, and Chris [Smalley] kept pushing it back on my head, along with pulling my ribbon back over my shoulder and pushing me back up on the 'Vette' after I slid down and just about tore his ear off. Being my escort was very hazardous for Chris.” Tammy said. For the Athens Bulldogs :t was a hazardous night, too. Newspapers read that it was a night of firsts for Waverly's Tigers.” First year coach Rockie Natoli got his first SEOAL victory over the Bulldogs. tlie first time Waverly had ever beated Athens, and Waverly won its first Homecoming since 1978. After the 20-7 win. Coach Natoli praised his senior players. I’m proud of all our kids, but especially the seniors. Another first for the evening was the senior class placing first in the floatbuilding contest, the Class qf 80's first float win. with their Blast Bulldogs” design. The spirit, the parade, the queen, a Homecoming win—it all added up to a very special Homecoming week.

Only for the Athens Bulldogs effigy, brought to the high school’s front lawn in style, with hearse, pallbears and mourners. Floatbuilding bills drain class treasuries “We believe! We believe!” Coach Rockie Natoli taught the cheer to his football team and to students gathered for effigy Thursday night of Homecoming week, making Tigers believers—in a Homecoming win. After the snake dance—a chain of band members, cheerleaders and psyched students—wound its way through town, all gathered in the front lawn of the high school for the effigy. The fire was lit...and a hearse pulled up. What’s going on?” students mumbled. “Who died?” But the funeral was for the Athens Bulldogs. The effigy Dog was carried out of the hearse and LOOKING GOOD: As Tim Varney draws the “Rockie’s Place backdrop for the freshman float, twin Pat Varney.

We believe!” The bonfire crowd thinned, and floatbuilders hurried back to barns and garages to finish Wild Wild West float entries. Floatbuilding had started the previous Saturday. Freshmen at the coveted Hardman’s barn in town, sophomores behind Long’s Body Shop on Rt. 104. juniors in Robinson’s garage on old Rt. 23 and seniors on Forest Hills in Armour’s garage worked on ideas for the Wild Wild West theme chosen by Student Council members. Again, floatbuilding racked up big bills for classes, often calling on individual contributions when the class treasury ran dry. Senior class adviser Zoa Craumer, whose class won the first place trophy, at an estimated cost of $200. said. “I honestly believe some people think it takes just $50 to build a float.” □ PAINTING A CACTUS on Ihe class float's backdrop, sophomore John Car-cut! spends another evening at a float-building session.

CLEAN UP; Student Council member Amy Ferguson picks up trash after decorating for the dance at West Elementary. “Girls put on a long dress... and the boys just take a shower!“ Mrs. Zoa Craumer defined semi-formal. but for a Wild Wild West Homecoming, students stuck with the cowboy theme: boots, hats and denim. And decorations provided a suitable atmosphere: bales of hay for the queen and her court to sit on. hallways papered with charcoal murals, a saloon set-up for refreshments, and backdrops from class floats, including the freshmen’s “Rockie’s Place.” During the week. Student Council members worked at Joy Nutt’s house, preparing and planning. Finally, they brought everything together Saturday morning to decorate West Elementary for the dance that night. Crepe paper, wires, bales of hay and makeshift tumbleweed provided a good day’s work for Student Council Adviser Debbie Setty and volunteer Mrs. Mary Gecowets. Arriving that night—“$5 drag. $3 stag”—students danced in a gym full of cowboys-‘n’-lndians relics: refreshments from a “Saloon.” bales of hay. an occasional cactus or tumbleweed on the floor. The band. “Subway Duke.” played to a crowd dressed for the dance theme Boys wore hats and boots: girls sported hats. boots and fashionable slit skirts. Another big fashion hit was disco-inspired shirts with gold or silver threads running through the fabric. Finally, after the band had played its last number, the stragglers stepped out to West’s once crowded parking lot and away from the Wild Wild West world of saloons and balloons and cowboy boots, ending a different—a special— Homecoming week. □ 16 Hoiriit omir WAITING in the hallways at West Elementary with the rest of the court, candidate Jill Kegley and escort Onno Sieger relax until their cue for the court introduc lion and traditional first dance.” ANXIOUS, ecstatic, excited, just plain happy: senior Tammy Fyffe runs through every positive emotion as she is crowned Homecoming Queen 1979.

After all, it’s hard to decide on an idea that is economical, festive and a crowd pleaser. Junior class officers and adviser Patricia Cochran were faced with a limited budget and a student body that demanded a prom as qood as last year’s “Starry. Starry Night.” Enter “Always and Forever. Economical? With a little “wheeling and dealing and ingenuity, juniors managed to keep within their tight budget. Decorators used leftover mylar from last year and compromised on the decorations.

Confusion, conflict... her parents can’t let her until the two older girls get hitched, and this creates a problem: the oldest. Ceelie, is a disgusting pig. The play continued as a get Ceelie-hitched romp. If shotgun weddings, feuds and stranded city-folks didn’t entertain enough, cast members improvised, sometimes unintentionally but always to the delight of their audience. Mark Bayes (Obeey) literally fell out of his dress when his special-effects apples slipped. Carol Dyke (daughter Five) caught her pigtails on the curtains in the doorway, and the cast skipped the usual number of lines. HILLBILLY Scott Rilchharl performed in both the Dr«im«i Club and the Junior Class. The cast met with a number of difficulties before they had to deal with stage fright. Volleyball practice in the old gym-auditorium confined play practice to director Francis Bayes’s classroom after school until a week before the play. More inconveniences resulted from job and sports conflicts, and Pam Parker, in the hospital with pneumonia, missed several practices. Todd Stevens (Cousin Zeke), met with a particularly unusual problem: he had to go to work in his stage makeup. Finally, after Ceelie found her man and everyone celebrated the usual happy ending, cast members celebrated a reasonably successful performance at Cardo’s Pizza. □ May 1980: ...Well, here it is, three hours before the Drama Club play “Deadly Ernest,” and everyone’s putting on the finishing touches.” They’re set-tinq up the cameras to tape for cable TV. Brenda, John, Katherine and Sharon are getting their hair sprayed gray, and everyone in memorizing lines. We’re all nervous, but we’ll make it. We have so far. We have weathered through, not being allowed to put the set up until the day of dress rehearsal, then a five hour dress rehearsal, and now the curtains won’t qo shut. At least the set was painted, we got our stairs set up so no one will fall and break his neck and Don’s Furniture donated a chair and a sofa. It should be a really good play, but there won’t be any more like it. You see tonight is the last play under the direction of Mr. Francis Bayes... An Afterthought...It’s over, and I made it! I don’t believe it went so fast! It sure didn’t go that fast during rehearsals. Marc James really spaced his lines in the park bench scene and added lines to his script. I think I shall never forget how the telephone rang after being picked up. When Sharon Barch hit the wall, the set swayed and seemed almost ready to fall. I can’t seem to get out of this make-up! Now, they want us out front for an interview for the TV...The TV, I forgot they were taping us for cable! I thought this ordeal was over...I hope the new director doesn’t put us through this stuff next year. I hope Mr. Bayes liked his cake. I wonder... How did the Lubner’s skit which went off with a ‘bang’ affect the audience. Did Mr. Bayes like the special chicken selection and dance tribute. from the diary entry of Scott Ritchhart.

Right Before Our Eyes Inductees, parents honored at reception By the time you are a junior, and eligible to be inducted, you are familiar with the program: candles, keys, robes and speeches. “Old National Honor Society members sit onstage, the president speaks, four members tell about Scholarship. Leadership, Character and Service, and a fifth member explains the NHS emblem. Lights out. Then, with flashlight “torches” and keys, the old members set out to find and key the new members. Newly inducted members, given robes backstage, light their individual candles, receive certificates and recite the NHS pledge. This year, the ritual continued, and president Brenda Deere welcomed parents and students to the induction ceremony for the Robert Lucas Chapter of the National Honor Society, the introduced the speakers: Mary Cooper (for Scholarship), Tom Noel (Leadership). Kim Roe (Character) and Ruth Heavenridge (Service). Parliamentarian Dan Dixon explained—or attempted to explain—the emblem. After embarrassing attempts to recite from memory. Dan was given a script.

Throughout the year, the organization sponsored the high honors luncheons—supplying Kool-Aid. treats and seasonal decorations to honor students with at least an A- average. NHS also honored these students with a display board in the front hall listing their names. Once the object of a practical joke, this display board was featured in the News-Watchman with names apparently from “The fourth six weeks, 1941” and the campaign slogan “I like INDUCTING junior Jaki Copeland. Dan Dixon slips the key over her head. HAPPY NEW MEMBER Doug Bbss head backstage with NHS member Renee Williams.

For the 1980-81 school year. Mrs. Henry hopes to further prove that being in NHS is more than having a key.

Work reaches beyond school environment “Our primary purpose of the work-study program is to get them (special education students) prepared for work outside Mrs. Dora Myers Mrs. Myers, who has taught for 14 years at WHS, is referring to a program that we should all be familiar with, as we see special education students working in the school with cooks and custodians, serving food, cleaning the lunchroon and sweeping the halls. But the work-study program goes beyond the school environment. In the community, especially in Bristol Village, these students did yard work, custodial jobs and painting, juniors for one and a half days per week and seniors full-time if desired, to gain experience for work after high school. Work-study supervisor Mr. Chuck Myers worked closely with the students in the school and in the community. In class, however, the respon- sibility lay with Mrs. Myers, who taught English courses and junior subjects, and Mrs. Debbie Setty, who taught freshman and sophomore courses and mathematics. When possible, Mrs. Myers and Mrs. Setty ‘mainstreamed’ students, placing then in regular classes, usually physical education, home economics and general math. Since the passing of Public Law for the Handicapped, Mrs. Myers said, teachers must mainstream “as many as we think are capable, academically and socially, to take regular classes.” Next year, Mrs. Myers said that the teachers “plan to mainstream more.” Four special education students will go to the vocational school. One student distinguished IN HIS WORK STUDY PROGRAM Richard Crawford learns to operate the dishwasher in the cafeteria.

Junior Rick McCloud, one of Mrs. Myers students, placed seventh among boys in the test, which was given to juniors and seniors. In its second year, the Learning Disabilities (LD) program was again taught by Mrs. Helen McGuire. Dealing with specific problems, Mrs. McGuire taught students in problem areas such as reading. By selling candy canes during lunch periods, Mrs. McGuire’s classes raised enough money to buy a stereo system for class use. Mrs. McGuire noted that, as a teacher, her favorite involvement has been “trying to change a student’s attitude about the value of schooling.” □ IN CLASS: Charles Simmons Special Car 55 AT THE SPRING CONCERT : George Brady.

Editor Lisa Dyke received an award for best editor’s notebook. Outlined plans for the 1980 NOVEL filled the red three-ring award winning notebook. Copywriters Greg Robson and Chris Selch accepted awards for copywriting. “Unfortunately, a yearbook staff in Westerville. Ohio used Chris’s talents.” said Mrs. Janet Roberts after Chris moved before school began. A photo essay about a paraplegic won an award for photographer Brian Dean. Recognition of the 1978 NOVEL as an Outstanding Yearbook was given in workshop judging. Lois McKnight. Kelly Kalfs and Lynne Roberts packed fans and belonging into cars for the trip to the Muncie. Indiana workshop. Lynne spent two weeks in photography workshop at Ball State and was joined by Debbie Moats at the one week Buckeye State Workshop at Denison University in June. Twelve full time photo layout class members and several volunteers accepted the responsibility to complete information for the yearbook. However, in May when school was dismissed the book remained incomplete and only the most loyal spent the entire summer working to finalize layouts for the book. Incomplete copy caused final deadline delay by six months. As school opened in September only Editor Lisa Dyke, graduate Marc James and Photography Brian Dean joined 1981 staff members and dozens of volunteers to complete the task left “unfinished” by a less than dedicated staff. Shortly after dismissal of school, workmen remodeling the school restrooms shut off the water. Photography for the book was completed in the home print labs of Brian Dean and Adviser Janet Roberts. “To make matters worse, the yearbook room and photography labs were vandalized and robbed in July. We moved everything we could salvage to my house and started reorganizing the book. This proved truly inconvenient! Although we had plenty of space and most equipment needed, the computerized typesetter could not be moved.” said Adviser Roberts. After four cover art rejections, the cover division page art was simplified and redesigned. This change further complicated an already frustrating experience. Final pages arrived at the plant in early January. □ At 1ER A long. sometimes sleepless seven days at the Ball State Journalism Workshop. Mr and Mrs. Jacob Kalfs helped transport the group home.

Senior Marc James made a lined vest. “Learning about furniture periods and styles as well as the quality of a piece of furniture will be helpful later in purchasing furniture.” said another junior boy. “Miss Shupert taught us about woods, too.” In addition to making meals and clothing, students traveled to Chillicothe to select material, had a teacher's tea at Christmas, served the parents’ reception after National Honor society inductions and sold cookbooks to raise money for a donation to Children's Hospital.

Two other first-year English teachers taught this year: Mrs. Christi Satchell and Mrs. Sara Reed, who replaced Mrs. Deborah Henry. Mrs. Satchell. who taught English Literature and one class of freshman English, noted that seeing students improve in their work and attitude gives me the greatest satisfaction. I also enjoy talking with students about their future plans.” Mrs. Reed, who took over Mrs. Henry’s junior English classes and the Speech and Drama class in February, remembered the first weeks as challenging.” Her workload for the last two six-weeks periods included a short story unit for American Literature classes, news-reading (from Time magazine) for English 1 1 classes, and demonstrations in the Speech and Drama class. Like Mrs. Henry. Mrs. Reed assigned weekly vocabulary lists to the junior English classes and test featuring essay questions. To Mrs. Henry, the purpose of the American Literature class was to teach students to read to understand. to write to be understood.” During her second year at WHS. Mrs. Janet Jones taught English 10 and Reading, and noted that her favorite involvement as a teacher was my first period class.” Mr. Francis Bayes also taught English 10. as well as English 12 classes.

With the click of the lock in late May the library closed for the summer. It was extra quiet. This quiet, however, was broken in August before the students returned. Hammers, drills and carpenters walled off the area nearest the side door. This room, under construction, would be used as a classroom for the Talented and Gifted Program to be implemented with incoming freshmen. The librarian had a new wall against which to set furniture or book shelves. “In Portsmouth I was the librarian at the public library. This is such a change for me to be a high school librarian.” said Mrs. Leanne Allen. She brought with her a new look and feeling to the library. She also advised the library club.

Bo Derek’s cornrow braids from the movie “10” caught on nationally, but WHS seniors experimented with “curlies,” body perms and other simpler styles. The definite trend for guys was a pari in the middle with hair feathered back. □ Hells: Larry Gullion.

Where was Kelly Hopkins last year? Hint: She attended school six days a week. Hint: She lived with five different families. Hint: She took a five-week course in German before she started. Through an organization called Youth for Understanding (YFU), Kelly spent her junior year at schools in Holland and West Germany. She heard about RETURNING from a Business Office Education field trip senior Charlene Prescott holds the balloons she received. the program from Coach Roger “Gabby” Smith, who directed her to Mrs. Jenny Varney, who sold her on the idea. “[My parents didn’t want me to go, but they wanted me to have the experience,” she remembers. So she went. After her five-week course in German, she began attending school. Six days a week, from 7:30 to 1:00 on weekdays and 7:30 to 11:00 on Saturdays, she had classes in English, French, German, Chemistry, Physics, Math, Geography History, Art, Religion and Physical Education —a different schedule for every day. Prices on everything but food were higher, she notes. The crime rate was low and there was hardly any litter. Customarily, the people bathed once a week, and lunch was the big meal of the day, when the family got together. This year, Kelly attended Shawnee State College for half of her school day. She feels that she benefitted from her experience: “I had to condition myself to living there by myself and the environment. It showed me that I could go away on my own and gave me a better understanding for people. Any more, I wouldn’t be afraid to go anywhere by myself.” □ SENIOR Todd Stevens talks with lunchroom assistant Mrs. Marilyn Browder while on his way to a pep assembly.

Mrs. Jackie Ross and Mrs. Betty Hartley, veteran chefs of the Tigers. Home baked rolls and cookies prompted students to buy extras. Some students bought two lunches. but many bought extra portions. Lunches cost 60C. Former student cook Mrs. Acord remembered, “We were permitted to walk downtown during lunch hour or to old Walnut Street school for the 10C lunches.

Resolved: Tigers are 1. At least to the parents, students and townspeople who turned out to see a Homecoming victory over the Athens Bulldogs, a league championship for the volleyball squad, and WHS among basketball’s “Sweet 16” tournament teams. In all, Waverly offered twelve varsity sports for boys and girls. In the end, we had as many outstanding teams. Even those who didn’t hit the newspaper headlines as “champions” showed a marked improvement, a remarkable effort and the school spirit that rocked Waverly and made the Tigers 1... Right Before Our Eyes Another goal may have been a Homecoming victory- Waverly has not won a Homecoming game since 1973. when Meigs lost 29 25. The Tigers, psyched from an earlier pep assembly and ready for a comeback after three losses, defeated the Athens Bulldogs 20-7. This game marked the first win against the Bulldogs since Waverly entered the Southeastern Ohio Athletic League in 1969. A Meigs teacher's strike cancelled that game. A game was rescheduled with North Adams, and Waverly stomped the Green Devils 36-0 in Waverly's only Saturday night game. Confidence was up. “We feel we can win those games. Natoli said about matched with Logan and Wellston. Logan hadn't been scored against by a Waverly team since 1974. The Tigers came out ready to score, and senior quarterback Onno Steger connected with junior split end Jeff Harris for six points the first time in six years Waverly had scored against Logan. Natoli's prophecy was wrong though; Waverly lost. FRUSTRATED, head coach Rockie Natoli screams to the referee in a futile attempt to get his attention. Assistant Coach Back-to-back wins highlight comeback “I'm starting a turnaround in Waverly High School football. first year coach Rockie Natoli said. With him. he brought a lot of change, a lot of plans and a renewed spirit in football. When summer practices started in August. Natoli's changes—and the new football spirit—were evident. Not just the usual football crowd, but several new' faces showed up for practice. And twenty-one seniors turned out. a big improvement over last year's eleven. Wheerlersburg spoiled the team’s first game, though. In a non-conference match. the Tigers lost (were “thumped according to the newspaper) 43-0. To work up spirit again, the team went on to win two back-to-back home games. “This is the first time in ten years that Waverly has won back-to-back home games. Natoli said. “The kids wanted to do that and they stuck with it. Also; We had two goals going into the league. One was to go into the league winners. We did that. The other was to get the second team offense in and we did that.” IN PURSUIT of an Ironton running back. 152 Football AT THE BOTTOM of the pile, senior fullback Jim Hignite anxiously awaits the whistle after running for the first down. .

They have a lot of talented athletes. They’re a sound football team.” Despite the flattery, the Tigers lost their last game. But the loss didn’t hurt as much when players heard senior tri-captain Mark Rhoads say. “it's not important that we lost. What is important is that we had fun.” The Tigers finished the season with a 4-6 record, with all four victories at home. “When I came I felt 4-6 would satisfy me,” Coach Natoli said. “And now that we’ve accomplished a 4-6 record. I’m not really satisfied.” But he also felt that “this year’s team had a lot of spirit and I liked that.” Fans who attended all games saw a lot of that “spirit” in action.

Another victory for the Reserve Lady Tiger volleyball team. But this time the victory was special— they beat the Varsity Lady Tigers. In a close practice game, the reserve team came out on top. as they did in every Southeastern Ohio Athletic League match to become league champs. First year coach Peggy Shupert, who was “coached” by varsity’s Miss Vicki Penn, practiced alongside her team. Ob- viously this had a positive effect. In league matches, the Reserve girls went undefeated, and lost only one game outside of their league (to Zane Trace). How did they do it?

In the Washington Court House game Southpaw Todd Nathan bucketed seven shots from the floor with a game total of 18 and led the team with seven rebounds. “He had a good game all around and came up with some key rebounds.” Smith said. “He probably played the best game he has played all year with a nine for eleven shooting night.” After defeating Wheelersburg Pirates to capture the District title Smith said. “The team played its best game of the year by far. We just played real good defense.” The Tigers bucketed 40 of 53 free throw attempts that benched four pirates on personal fouls, 22 in the fourth quarter. With visions of St. Johns, Tigers prepared for the unbeaten Dresden Tri Valley game. Student Council gave the Tigers a “Sweet 16” party at Cardo’s and Tiger “pride” carried the team to a 48-45 victory over the Scotties in the semi-regional game. After the final Portsmouth game a disappointed Smith said, “I’m not ashamed. We’re amoung the top eight in the state. When you think about it, we were just one point away from the State Tournament.” This proves a Smith pre-season prediction, “If we play together, we can win with pride.” □ SENIOR Dave Burriss goes up for a shot as Troy Banfa and Chris Smith wait for the rebound.

From the Honorable James Emmitt to the Big Mac, Waverly has encouraged enterprise, and in 1980 the tradition continued. Local businesses developed, grew, changed. Chain stores like K-Mart and Super-X established themselves in the community. New businesses moved into old buildings as the old Waverly State Bank became the Vault Health Club and the Frank Arm-bruster family re-opened the Emmitt House. Business expansion led to community expansion; a public park, a senior citizens’ center and a workshop for the mentally retarded. New neighborhoods, like Kilgore Estates, developed.

On this day the pedestrian turned parade participants, definitely had the right of way when it comes to stopping traffic. Headed by the light blue police cruiser and trailed by the fire engine, marching units marched to honor the veterans and loved ones in a brief ceremony. Master of Ceremonies Ora Tussey introduced par- ticipants and speakers. Rev. J. Douglas Shriner, pastor of the Methodist Church spoke of the war dead and the responsibility they met, that we must also meet. As the air waves transmitted the strains of the “Star Spangled Banner” the flag proudly reached half mast. Through the stately cedar trees came the final notes from the dual trumpets of George Brady and Chris George playing “Taps.” Sounding a military salute the volleys echoed from tombstone to tombstone. As the crowd dispersed, each would remember...in his own way. Sounds of memories For the price of a $2.00 ticket and a 20 mile drive sports fans found themselves in the Paint Valley gymnasium three times during Sectional tournaments. Throngs of fans stood shivering in snow and drizzling rain with rival Unioto and Hillsboro supporters for the doors to open on Monday and Wednesday evenings in early March. Fans soon forgot the sardine-like bleacher seating and jeering to enjoy watching Tiger stars ‘dunk the ball’ and control the boards. Indian warpaint turned back to ‘lipstick on the face’ and the mighty Blue Lions returned to Washington Court House to turn in their jerseys. Using precious gasoline to make the 70 mile drive to the Ohio University Convocation Center in Athens, forking out $7.50 for three tickets and donning anything orange and black to wear seemed little sacrifice to pay for the excitement of watching the Pirates ‘forlorn and fouled out’ and the sports casters cringe at the fact the undefeated Scotties could be controlled and defeated. Evenly matched and equally psyched the Tigers and Trojans each planned to ‘bust out’ of the Regional eight into the State finals. In a nip and tuck, foul and free throw game anticipation reached its climax with play resuming as the clock showed three seconds. Into the play...the shot is taken and hope for the state crown fades.

Second Street Waverly, Ohio 45690 Phone 947-2161 214 Community Business History It was a new town, a new family and a new business for the Arthur Boyer family. The year was 1939. A young mortician, his wife and son David occupied the second story of the old Greenbaum family owned Wolford building on Second Street. On the ground floor of the former hotel a funeral home was established in January 1939. Located in the Historical Preservation District the Boyer Funeral Home property at an earlier date included a livery stable. Business expansion included building expansion. To the brick structure Boyer’s added a carport and office to replace the former pillared side porch. Additional two story structures were constructed as was a chapel and multi vehicle garage. In 1958 when son David joined the business, a recent purchase, the adjacent former Wells-Jones property was occupied by the elder Boyer's, son John and daughter Sharon. Both home and business were sand blasted to restore the brick facade. The horses formerly behind the home have been replaced with horsepower. The structure still provides temporary rest, sharing and caring in Pike County's oldest family owned mortuary. $ Barch’s SUZUKI Suzuki r Waverly ml Mil Rt. 2 Box 269 Phone 947-2729 Trcbcr pernor, Cemetery Lettering Mausoleums Markers 131 E.

He often sits in his motorized wheelchair, to which he has been confined for the past two years, and greets his friends and patrons in Klinker’s Lumber and Builders Supplies. In April Mr. Klinker saw the grand opening of a new 12.000 square feet masonry and steel building located on the quarter block at the corner of Market and Seventh Streets. The total 28.000 square feet for sales and storage far exceeds the tiny home basement beginnings in the early 1940’s. A meat cutter by trade. Mr. Klinker purchased some used power tools from a local physician. The money used to purchase the tools had been designated for Christmas gifts. The gifts from the inexperienced woodworker came in the form of homemade toys for his three children. After the trucks, doll houses and furniture came the project that led to the formation of Klinker’s - ball bats. Increased skill motivated him to end his career as a meat cutter and to make ball bats. Locally the bats were sold through an auto parts store before reaching statewide sales demands. His first large order was for 10,000 bats with a re order of 20,000 bearing the diamond shaped logo - “Wood Products - Winkers.” From the 80C priced bats of the early 1940’s the business was on Brady's Sohio is a family business.

Perhaps the mind's ear hears this sound if he happens to be a long time local resident or student of local history and enters Stifflers. The middle section of the store in the 1930’s housed the Dreamland Theatre, complete with silent movies and a piano.

Window shopping for shoes in Stifflers could cause the clicking of pool cues and balls as sportsmen pocketed ball after ball in Ernest Shuskey's Pool Hall.

After the Charles Watkins Grocery closed Bailey's Restaurant, complete with ice cream parlor chairs and tables, offered a soda or a snack. « '' Duffy Electric and Machine Works, Inc.
