Waynesboro High School - Skyline Yearbook (Waynesboro, VA)

Text from Pages 1 - 204 of the 1971 volume:

tRv ftli t .K ' u Waynesboro Public Library Waynesboro. Virginia 4 SKYLINE 71 IN ITS SEVENTEENTH VOLUME PRESENTS The community of Waynesboro High School in its six definable compartments — the same compartments in every high school, in every town. WHS is more than a building, more than an impassionate wall. Its integral components begin with SENIORS on pages 16-45, with their portraits, achievements, and special distinction from the . . . UNDERCLASSMEN on pages 45-73, just as important but not so privileged. TOGETHER they experience LIFE on pages 76-89. FACULTY, ADMINISTRATION, and CURRICULUM on page 90, pass on the crystallized substance of established knowledge, the philosophical purpose of secondary education. SPORTS starts on page 128 with a venerable spirit and pride. As an eminent facet of WHS character, it is akin to . . . CLUBS on pages 146-189, as organizations of potential talent, seldom exploited fully, but for deadlines, cris es, and two-point conversions. 5 Nixon ' s year of the silent majority, mid-term election and radicals . . . Courts and systems, policies and long-range planning Affect companion institutions of education. Teaching becomes a guidance process. Quests for individual emphasis and panel discussions creep toward student involvement . . . The lost art of creativity begins to emerge in courses, causes and fashion. Quaint ideals of shin bones and ankles timidly make a final stand after women ' s liberation and personal freedom have at last won the war for the mini. Today all styles are in vogue, and fashion is a fading shackle of the designer ' s profit. Fish on Friday and birth control? Church reform attempts to recall alienated youth and apathetic Americans . . . Waynesboro weekend life necessitates expan ded facilities for sports fans and post-movie dates . . . Fishburne Military Academy marches beneath its venerable arch, — as old as Waynesboro itself . . . 6 ■ ' ft ; am-, m i 1 mp 4 BFbP r� vW mBf - v .i: i ;;,:■ ' 7 8 physical wall in Berlin merely symbolizes Divergent politics, but the oppressed Are the living. A wall limits or protects, but whose side Do we take? Waynesboro joins its metropolitan neighbors; It witnesses environmental destruction, Through construction of interstates and more cars and more machinery. Distance no longer isolates. Man craves Contact with sister planets or simply Charlottesville, Richmond, and Roanoke. Man continues exploiting, improving, shrinking his world . . . Making more people, and yet surviving. 9 To effectively understand the lives of individuals, it is necessary to appreciate the environment to which they must respond. WHS ' s brick structure of thirty-eight rooms is completed by three temporary chicken coop classrooms. The four and one half acre campus encompasses an athletic field, parking lots, and a DE annex. Students inhabit 978 lockers, zoom through 173 doors, scribble on 937 desks, daydream out of 365 windows. The auditorium (the best in Waynesboro) seats 861 bodies, gritty feet tramp through thirty-three-year- old halls, and up 282 steps . . . WHS lives on . . . 11 Action, response, and reaction form the epochs of time; All events, from sweeping the parking lot to waging the Israeli War, are siblings of daily personal reactions. Reactive response is the essence of WHS. It is the sole element personalizing the 70-71 academic year from the changeless face of doors and bricks. Our responses to black and white brothers are seldom affected by world tremors. Social integration is still an evolving state of mind, despite mutual participation in the parade of WHS lifestyles. Polarized politics produce parties, prejudice, and ultimate war begun in emotions and temporarily resolved in million-dollar weaponry. Experience, called age, acts upon innocence to result in a changing generation. So many conformed non-conformists who dare to flip out beyond the sedentary norm . . . A reaction to pressurized materialism or paranoid failure. Every sensitive reaction . . . a broken and restrung link creating a successive chapter of daily history. 12 13 o To isolate — look inward and down and back . . . To remain contented With the mediocrity of the past. To build untouchable walls that protect self-pride Is to know loneliness . . . A vacuum of emotion. 14 Through acceptance of challenge And pain in futile attempt, Satisfaction in sharing, Accomplishment in grouped efforts Of service. We learn the meaning of complete . . . And self-fulfillment becomes Reality instead of a humanities discussion topic. Tired students, thoughtful students, Students with lollipops. Students that are . . . It’s raining today, Your slip is showing! Did she really say “quiz?” Awareness that is . . . Colonnades of sleepy smoke rings, A time-worn stage of dusty echoes, Two sets of fifty breathless stairsteps, The campus that is . . . A year of learning new words; Eight months of finding significance; Thirty-two weeks of Isaac Newton, Sine cosine, Frank Lloyd Wright That are laughingly, uniquely, undeniably . . . US! School life is a twelve year apprenticeship that binds its students to the task of finding themselves — of enlarging the experiences and understanding the chemical reactions that produce what we term “age”. Each of us forms a single brick in the wail of individuals that constitutes WHS; all of us share in the delightful taste of life which learning brings us . . . the challenge of competing with others, the satisfaction in making a step toward maturity, and the sheer fun of socializing with our friends. We “goof off”, we study hard, we cry, and we laugh a great deal, for high school is at once a teddy bear and a preface to adulthood — a chap¬ ter in which we grow. Sophomores, spinning a web of dreams for tomorrow, contribute their hesitant smiles and eager attitudes; juniors light each day with a free-flowing confidence and industry typical of the “middle rung”; and seniors prepare for a giant step, their thoughts lost in reverie of the fleeting past and anticipation of future worlds beyond. We form the “breath of life” which makes our institution significant — we breathe the hopes, industriousness, and frolic that render our high school years a bittersweet reality of experience. 17 S).

We, too, have had many moments of memories — SOPHOMORES: ori¬ entation, our first steps within the cold, disciplined walls of Waynesboro High, our first embarrassing attempts at spirited pep rallies and assemblies, the tragedy of an empty treasury, the joy of block par¬ ties and road rallies and week-long romances until we were JUNIORS: Frenzied class meetings about THE SHOW with several directors, much chaos, and a muddy cast-party or two, or three . . . Longer romances and college to think about, a new self-awareness with underclassmen to tower over and SENIORS: to look up to. When we got there not much had changed. A play, a party, and we remem¬ bered that we were almost through with Saturdays of college boards and 3:15 releases. 18 i David Benson, GPG 2. Dotty Berry 3. Diana Blackburn, Keyette Club, Jr .

The 1971 Skyline joined computer technology in a survey of the senior class. In the area of human rela¬ tions, 10% of the girls are engaged to 0% of the boys . . . two males and eight females are married . . . Yet fiscal responsibility appeared higher in the males with almost 60% holding part-time jobs. National trends were clearly evident at WHS with 65% of the girls and 86% of the boys planning to further their education after graduation. Another trend, pollu¬ tion, came close to home with 46.8% of the class regularly driving a car to school. % I ' m b ■ -J 21 I.

The game was postponed, but the dance began as usual with the diminished crowd escaping the rains Out in the Country . At ten o ' clock, the silent couples watched the jeweled crown pass before the expectent candidates Sue Hammer, Laura Hobson, and Sherrie Critzer, finally resting upon the 1971 Queen, Laura Hobson.

Democracy saw its finest hour in the 1971 Senior Committee, a body composed of a representative from each senior homeroom and led by the class officers. The committee made most of the decisions concerning class activities such as use of the lounge and specifics of the graduation ceremony. Their sen¬ ior play choice netted over seven-hundred dollars toward the senior trip, also under the direction of the Committee. From bewildered sophomores, to slightly organized Juniors, the Class of ' 71 regretfully left WHS after a victory over impulsive planning, diversified leadership, and self-interests.

The Senior Lounge vibrated with sound of a bouncing ping-pong ball and Grand Funk ' s Mean Mistreater which reduced the importance of Vanity Fair to mediocrity — at least for an hour. Every period found aimless Seniors talk¬ ing over, under, around and through life in hopes of gaining an answer to the future. It was a place where a hopeful stab at the Budwiser button would deliver only Grape. The dripping of holy drops from the heavens often transformed the haven into a popular place for fish, but after much mopping and work, the lounge again played host to the Class of 71.

The colorful romanticism of the 1970 Junior-Senior Prom traditionally constituted one of the major proj¬ ects of the Class of ' 71. Supervised by Sandy Kaiser and Bob Anderson, focus was on the theme song If Ever I Should Leave You with each corner of the transformed gym portraying a season. Despite a hectic exam schedule, Decorations Chairman Sherry Critzer directed the class efforts to a majestical suc¬ cess which far out-weighed the groans and com¬ plaints of seemingly unsolvable snags. TOP: Surrounded by a world of paper flowers, Susan Korneke ' s thoughts perceive a picturesque Friday evening. LOWER LEFT: Amidst multicolored streamers, Pete Shifflett and Ray Wolke endeavor to transform cold steel beams into the starry skies over Camelot. LOWER RIGHT: Debbie Smith looks on as Brooke Blanchard transfers the theme “If Ever I Should Leave You onto paper. Sharing horizons new to us . . . Senior wizardry and imagination created a memora¬ ble lunior-Senior Prom for 1970. Working during school hours and late into the night, the industrious Class of ' 71 converted the bleak gym into an attrac¬ tive, graceful setting. The theme, the song If Ever I Should Leave You from Camelot, transformed each corner of the gym into a season of the year a season when a man finds it impossible to leave the one he loves. Similarly, couples were mesmeri zed by the magic and found it difficult to leave by midnight.

Gaining a deeper appreciation of Virginia and American government, the students participated in a rigo¬ rous schedule of programmed activities with hun¬ dreds of other high school juniors at William and Mary, and Radford. The stimulating week found the WHSers involved in city and state offices, sports competitions, and the all-important pro¬ cess of making new friends. Quite an experience for the WHS ambassadors!

Show from any available material the sixties had to offer. From Laugh-In to the moon walk to Bank Ameri- card and back again, the juniors laughingly had their interpretation of what Time had been. The variety of this material led to a show that evolved into a combination of co-ordinated diversity given contin¬ uity by the mechanics of a lack in the Box. Unfortu¬ nately, time for practice was short, and after two outstanding performances and an unplanned party, it was all over except for the comments of the elated and proud Juniors describing the quality of Jump Back Jack . 35 f 1.

Head Writer Tom Boyd, Pro¬ ducer Tim Miller, and Director Bob Rhodes created a col¬ lage of memories that evolved during the past decade. The goal seemed to be a spirited party with the show being merely a step to its obtainment for many Juniors. However, the audience realized the true essence of the show, and enjoyed it as a rare facet of entertainment. It was indeed a display of talent, fun, and most of all sin¬ cere “hope” that the next decade would offer new truth, beauty, and peace for mankind and The Class of ' 71.

TOP; juniors take time to relax before dress rehearsal begins on Thurs¬ day evening. 37 Together . . . With the adoption of Up the Down Staircase as their first joint effort of the year, the Senior class faced an array of ultimately conquerable problems. Rehersals began with a scanty fifty per cent partici¬ pation that grew to full co-operation during dress rehearsals. Under the umted talents of Mrs. Flora and Mr. Hahn, the play steadily approached perfection with student director Kristie Ogle helping to trans¬ form undisciplined amateurs to semi-professionals in less than three weeks of exhausting, but wildly enjoyable practice. Their first standing ovations in four years rewarded the efforts of the directors, and with thanks to Donna Lawhorne, the experience culminated with the Traditional Cast Party.

The admired and emulated Miss Barrett, played by leading lady Laura Lanka, refused to be daunted by the contrary attitude of both students and faculty or the poor teaching conditions that continually obli¬ terated her efforts. The hard reckless character of Joe Ferone, effectively portrayed by Tom Boyd, charmed the audience from his first appearance on stage. A frustrated school nurse, a handsome, une¬ motional teacher named Paul, a romantic, young girl named Alice and many others helped to complete the overcrowded, but undernourished, heart of the school. It was a play of mixed emotions — a sad comedy that fully delighted near capacity crowds for both performances.

With one foot in the present and the other in the future, seniors attempted to separate reality from appearance and pride from prejudice. As all classes have their fac¬ tions, so the class of ' 71 had its own; type cast factions characterized by apathy, long hair, intellectualism, or experimental facades. Planned or spontaneous trips to attractions of diverse interest provided an escape valve from high school and pre-college job pressures. A preca¬ rious perch upon an imposing rock quarry left the dignified mark of this year ' s senior class. Through the novel experience of independent study, a few seniors found the true meaning of self-instruction. Throughout January Senior slump and April acceptance letters, the class of ' 71 looked with eager eyes to long-deserved di¬ plomas.

As they faced graduation, WHS seniors prepared themselves to take their place in a cosmopolitan society. The need and desire for higher learning urged many seniors to continue their education in the hope that they would become more well-rounded individuals. Utilizing their technical and clerical skills, others forged their way into the lightning paced business world. For a few students, the thoughts of getting married and settling into domestic tranquility kept them in a state of antici¬ pation until graduation night. Regardless of how the 1971 seniors decided to fill the many niches of so¬ ciety, their proud WHS background reassured them success in fulfilling future responsibilities.

Words from We ' ve Only lust Begun by the Carpenters — .- — unior powerhouse ignites WHS Confronted by the twin walls of departing seniors and inexperienced sophomores, the class of 72 emerged as the dominating force behind WHS. They participated in all activities and filled essential offices in a majority of clubs; their powerhouse of ideas, spirit, and willingness to serve in all projects revealed the juniors as the life vessel of the school. Under the leadership of class president, Pat Miller, and the experienced guidance of sponsors Mr. Earl Hamilton and Mr. Conrad Guthrie, the enthusiasm of the juniors was funrieled into the vital coopera¬ tion and organization which brought the superior results of the Junior Variety Show and the Ju¬ nior-Senior Prom.

Cunningham Steve Dowdy Duane Cline Darcie Coon Alice Daughtery Tonya Doyle MM The snowball begins to roil As sophomores adjusted to life at WHS, the class of 72 was determined to create a name for themselves as an involved class. Challenged by the upper class- men, the sophomores quickly rallied to make their first contribution to WHS by attending pep rallies and games. A profitable quarter drive yielded sufficient funds to stage the traditional Sweetheart Dance. Although the dance was held after February 14th, the beautifully festooned girls ' gym imparted true Valentine ' s Day spirit. In early March, the class of 72 ' displayed their scholastic accomplishments when 23% of the sophomores were inducted into the Beta Club. However, not everything the sopho¬ mores touched turned to gold. The class-sponsored school picnic netted a stupendous $2.69. But the sophomore year provided some valuable experi¬ ences in cooperation, and a vital link in the chain which formed the reputation of the class of 72. It was a year of learning for the sophomores.

The juniors ' lively talents were evident in the realms of minute made posters and witty skits which they presented.

RIGHT: Soup Chemistry, soup chemistry, Laurie Putscher loves soup chemistry! Juniors savor lunch period For most juniors, the high spot of a typical school day was its lunch period. This precious half hour afforded a chance to relax, exchange gossip, absorb some nourishment, and, in general, rest briefly from the rigors of school work. For many, lunch was a substitute study hall, providing the extra, frantic moments needed to finish that last algebra problem or add the final touches to a French report. At least once a week, a junior table was the grand scene of a party celebrating birthdays, holidays, or just any whimsical occasion.

A potpourri of views prevail Various attitudes toward Walden, punch recipes; and education as a whole pervaded the industrious school hours of 284 juniors. For some, the school was merely a large building meant for socializing; for a few indifferent others, significance only existed after a 3:15 bell released them to the escapades of a different world. The intellectuals, however, found a haven of textbooks, incentive, and participation within WHS walls. An enthusiastic majority of ju¬ niors managed to combine a myriad of scholarly and extracurricular activities into a meaningful and satisfying year. FAR BELOW Is this our Katie Hamer?

The statistics supported this conclusion; forty per cent of the class held part time jobs. However, moneymak¬ ing was not the only activity w ' hich consumed junior time. Every school team found the class of 72 de¬ voting energy and talent, such as halfback Gerald Harris, who earned the individual scoring title in the Valley District, junior interest and involvement en¬ compassed every sphere of activity offered by WHS. The class dispersed its members throughout the award-winning band and chorus, while most clubs ' slates contained juniors in leading positions. Their reservoir of eagerness fostered the successful class projects including the bake sale, the junior soc hop, the pretty legs contest, the fabulous J.V. Show and the memorable Junior-Senior Prom.

It was perhaps the most complete and obvious affirmation of identity for the class of 72. The ring sizer and color samplers were much in demand as the fateful moment approached when each student gingerly ordered his own ring. When the decisions were finally tallied, blue spinel, ruby, and shamrock spinel emerged as the most popular stones for the boys, with aquamarine, blue zircon, and peridot the top choices for the girls. The rings varied from a petite size four to the not very feminine fourteen.

The efforts of this group helped mold its image of a working class. When asked what was the most outstanding thing about their class, many juniors stated that it was the class spirit and the ability to work together to achieve its goals. For others, this year was memora¬ ble for the work involved and the myriad of activi¬ ties absorbing busy hours. Of course, the usual ac¬ tivities, such as |V Show, Prom, and class rings were uppermost in many minds, while most football play¬ ers considered the District Championship to be the only thing worth mentioning. As in every class, there were those who felt that the only outstanding factor was the 3:15 bell and one more year ' til grad¬ uation. Flowever, the overwhelming majority agreed with the loyal juniors who declared, We ' re the class of 72!

He utilized his money making abilities in directing the Sophomore bottle drive which netted seventy dollars, and the celebrated penny drive which was the origin of great inter-class rivalry.

Many sophomores discovered that high school life was a combination of homework and fleeting moments. Learning to budget one ' s study time was a major area of concentration.

Hundreds of individuals rising early In the dawn to build their know-how, In the preoccupation called a c a d e m i c s. Here at WHS, we form an academic wall — our students represent the “bricks” that give the campus an actual substance; our teachers cement our efforts together into a coherent and relevant pattern. The product of such a joint project evolves as something we can be proud of ... a wall of knowledge to shut out prejudice and enclose progressive attitudes. We rise at 6:45 in the morning to learn that koala bears prefer eucalyptus leaves to mulberry ones, and we retire at 10:30 in the night with the semantics of a freshly memorized Thoreau quotation ringing in our ears, but through it all we inevitably emerge as . . . Many, many students learning loads Of bright new facts, Psyching several patient instructors, Doodling numerous lazy scrawls. A single school of people Sharing in adventure . . . rising Happily, reluctantly, persistently In the challenge known as learning. 91 Administrators maintain cool A primary duty of every high school ' s administration is to maintain open communication and complete understanding between the faculty and students. WHS is fortunate in having two administrators that were able to cope efficiently with this challenge. Mr. Shirley Kiger and his assistant principal, Mr. James Nichols, served the school with open ears and impartial judgement. They recognized the in¬ dividual needs of WHS students and explored new areas of curriculum and social development. In addi¬ tion to helping make WHS a more creative, pro¬ gressive institution, Mr. Kiger and Mr. Nichols con¬ tributed to the cool success of the year.

LEFT: Mr. Kiger snaps a quick pun in response to a passing stu¬ dent ' s friendly jibe. 93 V t Secs grapple with enigmas Much of the success of the WHS school year was attributed to the efforts of the hardworking office staff. Mrs. Francis Burnett rationed the chalk to needy teachers, sold football tickets, tabulated finances, served as a reference source for the solu¬ tion to any imaginable problem, and claimed to answer the phone approximately once every five minutes. Mrs. Polly Hawpe, supervisor of typing and correspondence, kept the coffee pot perking. Mrs. Bateman developed bellophobia as tardy students innocently waited for blue, pink, or white passes or excuses or understanding smiles. As a well-defined tooi of WHS graduates ' success, the guidance staff with Counselors Mrs. Massie, Mrs. Schneider, Mr. Placko, and Mr. Woodson assisted students in educational, vocational, and personal concerns. Hoping to impart a better understanding of occupational opportunities, Mrs. Snyder con¬ ducted a career unit for sophomores. A senior handbook containing transcripts, evaluation sheets, and graduation requirements represented the staff ' s progressive interests. With a complete library of informative publications and efforts to know each student, the department sincerely attempted to steer WHSers toward a purposeful and prosperous future.

An amazing twenty-nine huge pans of pizza were often devoured by hungry WHS students within an hour and a half. Ice cream sandwiches were best sellers. The noncyclamates fan club could buy low-calorie salads to supplement wavering will power. No one at WHS could rightfully complain of hunger pains.

With their twenty-two mops, eight brooms, and a single vacuum cleaner, janitors Lynwood Mitchell, Emmett Johnson, Luther Davis, and Ierry Bowman attacked the incessant grime produced by WHS life. Few people noticed that doorknobs were scrubbed with Ajax or that windows were cleaned with Creme Right soap. However, long after the last clubs of the day had adjourned, these sanitation experts persistently readied the building for tomor¬ row ' s routine.

The 9,435 books, 372 film strips, 153 disc record¬ ings, 94 slides, and subscriptions to eight newspa¬ pers and ninety-seven periodicals at finger-tip avail¬ ability served over 860 students during study halls and after school. A paperback book store provided extra reading material for thrifty book lovers. Mrs. Virginia Day ' s remedial reading classes en¬ deavored to make themselves more conscientious students through better reading abilities. The daily pressures of reading as much material as possible and use of speedreading machines helped students increase their comprehension and reading rates.

English administered creativity Under the experience of Mrs. Alice Flora and Mr. Duane Hahn, WHS students embodied the true spirit of the glamorous theater world. Last year ' s Drama Club received a superior rating in district competition with their superb production of Edna St. Vincent Millay ' s Aria De Capo. Also under Mrs. Flora and Mr. Hahn ' s direction, the class of 71 at¬ tained success with their touching and witty senior play. Up The Down Staircase. Drama became a reality in this year ' s curriculum with Mrs. Flora ' s new and creative seventh period Drama Class. Mrs. Sharon Hopson and Mr. Hahn nursed the 1971 Sky¬ line through its hectic days of deadlines, crises, and minor catastrophes with the hope of producing an accurate history of the year.

Sponsored by Mrs. Evelyn Balthis, the revived de¬ bate team practiced debate format and planned an active year of tournaments; both Mrs. Balthis and Mr. Michael Hamp prepared their senior classes for the rigorous demands of college English. In addition to coaching the B-team, a busy Mr. Hamp prompted his humanity students to formulate their individual concepts of the good man, the good life, and the good society . Inspired by Mrs. Lilly ' s careful instruction, sophomores explored the world of career opportunities. Word study, dictionary usage, American literature, and principles of writing the research paper filled the English hours of Mrs. Forbes ' college-bound juniors. A bevy of hard-working journalism students sponsored the successful Gold and Purple under the scrutinizing supervision of Mrs. Eleanor LaPlante.

The Civilization film series added a touch of world culture to the up-dated aims of the department. Changing times were evi¬ denced in the realm of discussion as stale topics of Viet Nam, drugs, and civil rights were replaced with ecology, and individual freedom debates. Two new-comers were added to the department this year. Mrs. Smith spent her spare moments with the WHS cheerleading squad, and Mr. Fred Walker inspired his government classes with new ap¬ proaches to problems. Mr. Shifflette coached the Young Republicans to victory with Mrs. Swortzel leading the Teen-age Democrats. Department head Mrs. White was responsible for the continual effort towards efficiency of teaching. LEFT: Mrs. White stares in awe as a flock of student tea chers invade her classroom.

World ' s wonders evoke study For some students, the overnight field trip to the Loft Mountain Camp Ground proved to be an adventure in meeting their woodland environment. The world of ecology, encompassing plantlife and wildlife, became an understandable realism to Mrs. Fletcher ' s and Mr. Corwin ' s biology students. Meanwhile, back at the chemistry lab, Mr. Gilbert ' s classes formulated equations, fabricated hydrogen samples or simply waited for the bunsen burner to ignite, and Mr. Muncy introduced the physical world to several brave scientific seniors.

It also stressed an appreciation of the countries ' cultural backgrounds. Under the exacting guidance of Mr. Forbes, enthusiastic members of the French Club attended the comedy, Bourgeois Gen- tilhomme in Charlottesville. Sponsored by Miss Wolt’enden, the Spanish Club visited the Peruvian Embassy, a Spanish shop, and a Spanish museum.

This year, Mr. Presley Phillips and Mr. Roger Zimmerman provided the veteran leadership which allowed each member of the band or chorus to expand his individual ability. The band, along with its customary half-time shows and seasonal concerts, presented additional performances for the University of Virginia and Washington and Lee University half time shows. Mr. Zimmerman ' s superb fifty-one-member concert choir received superior ratings at District Festival, while his mixed chorus presented two concerts and undertook a comprehensive course in music study.

Ill Diverse talents converge in math Equations, graphs and the other intricacies of mathe¬ matics occupied one period per day for most WHS students. Geometry, analysis, trigonometry, elementary calculus, and algebra provided a variety of methods for inducting the student into the world of math. Proving that mathematics is not a limiting field, the members of the department demonstrated their versatility by sponsoring a variety of clubs. Mrs. Carter gave her un¬ divided attention to investigating new and better pro¬ jects for the Beta Club. Mr. Guthrie sponsored the industrious Engineering Club and co-sponsored, along with Mr. Hamilton, Junior class projects. Mrs. Tucker devoted after-school hours to the SCA while Mrs. Knicely gave her spare moments to guide the National Honor Society in its endeavors.

In an effort to keep in step with the innovations of a business-oriented society, diversi¬ fied course offerings with the latest calculators, type¬ writers, shorthand lab equipment and audio-visual aids were implemented. The Vocational Office Train¬ ing courses under the supervision of Mr. Gilbert gave advanced students an opportunity for actual on-the-job training.

Fifty hours of classroom instruction and fif¬ teen periods of behind-the-wheel training were required by students before they could apply for their driver ' s licenses. A new addition to the be¬ hind-the-wheel instruction was the off-street- driving range which allowed students to practice basic automobile maneuvers without being faced with actual traffic problems. Due to the overload of students signed up for driver ' s training, a new summer program was initiated with approximately forty students completing driver ' s education during their summer vacation. The belief of the department is that good drivers who appreciate safety make good citizens. TOP: Mr. Moyer watches in disbelief as one of the All American Redheads scores another point.

Her- culeans chose to continue their physical-education training in the co-ed class comprised of juniors and seniors. Twice yearly, students executed chin-ups, shuttle-runs, and situps to test physical prowess for the states ' evaluation exercises.

To supplement their knowledge of textiles, the girls made a visit to nearby Crompton and Du Pont. Students also entered meal planning and sew¬ ing contests to win valuable prizes while the most outstanding young economists received the silver tea service award. The girls prepared refreshments to be served at afternoon faculty meetings and gave teas, buffet dinners and fashion shows for the en¬ joyment of their mothers and interested faculty members. In addition to Mrs. Wylie ' s energetic planning and teaching, she sponsored the FHA, Fu¬ ture Ffomemakers of America. Learning to become happy, contributing members of the family unit was the basic philosophy which the students tried to master.

Each future techni¬ cian was encouraged to continue to complexity at least two prerequisites begun in the first year. The shop world was another extension in the WHS wall encompassing every type of talent and interest. Mental and manual precision was the course em¬ phasis for WHS drawing students. Mechanical Drawing I was designed to develop a background of skills and concepts, with Mr. Gurkin designating drawing assignments each six-weeks period for more accomplished artists. Whether passing time peeling the art gum, or designing a closet, the stu¬ dents gained insight into the competitive industrial processes of our society.

Giving each student the opportunity to pursue his own creative dream, the department offered a wide variety of arts and crafts. The students achieved realism by the use of an excellent variety of media and equipment. As a staunch supporter of WHS, Mr. Spates efficiently provided weekly han¬ douts of precious paints and paper. Photography, an additional part of the art curriculum, included not only the basic use of the camera, but also the teach- niques of composing and taking original prints. Mr. Yoder emphasized the beauty implicit in every imag¬ inative black and white print. With Mr. Yoder ' s new duties as Waynesboro Art Superintendent, Mr. Gurkin played a dual role on the WHS staff as a photography teacher. His stu¬ dents spent much time in the park and at other elementary schools as they learned to create with cameras. TOP: Mr. Yoder critically examines a photography students original Christmas card.

Mr. Morris and Mrs. Kiser lead their students toward a clearer un¬ derstanding of the meaning of customer relations and successful salesmanship. In their flexible curri¬ culum, DE classes were always involved; they con¬ tested for Student of the Year , state offices, or the honor of being a delegate to the state convention, and they fed popcorn fans at football games, teach¬ ers at Christmas, and employers at banquets. Upon graduation, DE students were ready to take their place in the business world - living proof of the theory and practice which this special course sought to ingrain in their worldly knowledge. RIGHT: A paragon of patience, Mrs. Kiser explains the principle of wage and price control to an unresponsive student. 122 Industries await graduates The Industrial Cooperative Training program (ICT) further trained career-minded students in the areas of occupational theoretics, employer-employee rela¬ tions, interview and application procedures, and at¬ titudes vital to business success.

Whether receiving instruction in practical nursing, secretarial work, drafting, or elec¬ tronics, their training was to serve an important part in modern technology.

Seniors escaped to the Lounge, scholars to the library, and teachers suffered through agonizing hours of quips, pranks, baseball , and the battle for a semblance of order. An innovative type of study hall was the pioneering Quest program for seniors. The free period provided time for an independent research topic of the indi vidual ' s design. Topics under study this year in¬ cluded French literature, DDT concentrations, Afri¬ can tribes, ecology, and Rome. Quest was only a small but significant part of the progressive pro¬ grams evolving from a changing educational scene.

The 317 total posted by Tom Humphrey, Robbie Euler, Stan Gray, Niles Brancati, and freshman Dave Partridge easily secured the triumph over runner-up Harrisonburg, who finished with a 340 total. Partridge was the district tournament medalist with a score of 75, followed closely by Tom Humphrey ' s impressive 78. Brancati, Euler, and Gray rounded out the Giant scoring with 82 ' s.

Even in the face of defeat, Laura Hob¬ son, Susan Reynolds, Teresa Tomey, Brooke Blan¬ chard, Cindy Balderson, Vickie Shifflett, Sue Ham¬ mer, and Barbara Euler always had something com¬ plimentary to say to the players. The girls added a touch of beauty to all the athletic events at WHS during the 1970-71 season. The 1970-71 varsity cheerleaders are: Front: Sherri Critzer (alternate) and Susan Reynolds.

Basketball Coach Dick Lotts started the 1970 sea¬ son with four returning lettermen, and only one who played regularly. Coaches expected the year to be a rebuilding season, but the Little Giants showed numerous signs of solid potential during the first half of the season. Gerald Harris, Mat Sal¬ isbury and John Sims provided WHS with one of the strongest front lines in the district. John Payne, with his pin-point passing and floor lead¬ ership, and sharp-shooting Scotty Holts gave the Little G ' s a balanced backcourt.

Double figure scorers Scott Holts, Gerald Harris, and Russ Wells paced a potent offensive attack while John Payne led the defense. The Little Giants switched be¬ tween a zone and a man-to-man defense throughout the year and at times both were very effective.

The 71 Skyline acquired two new dimensions in the form of sponsors, Mrs. Sharon Hopson and Mr. Duane Hahn. The long road from a completely inexperi¬ enced staff (with the exception of the practiced hand of Debbie) to a working entity seemed inter¬ minable. Problems beset the staff at every turn; for example, the year began in debt and the staff was compelled to join the migratory trend. Deadlines merely “happened, the photography editor was non-existent, and Debbie took a hospital vacation in the middle of a fifty-six page crisis; even so, the 71 Skyline captured many poignant memories for the staff and gave to WHS (and especially the Class of 71) a most unique yearbook through which ev¬ eryone could remember it “as it was. 149 TOP: The law makers of WHS receive a free ride from a department of our fair city.

Con¬ centrating on improving the conditions and regulations of WHS, the SCA acted as an organizer by planning intraschool functions and solving technical problems. Fund-raising projects for the successful operation of the SCA hinged on the combined efforts of sponsor, Mrs. Tucker, council representatives, and the entire student body. Piecing together a myriad of youthful outlooks, Waynesboro ' s Student Cooperative Associa¬ tion became a single force to catalyze change within the WHS world.

In an effort to promote fellowship among young men having common interests, it sought to combine the lost art of free religious experience with sports-related ac¬ tivities. Throughout the year, FCA members shared in morning devotionals and monthly breakfasts at the Pancake House. Simple brotherhood was the theme of these informal meetings. Among their scheduled projects, they operated a concession stand at basketball games and planned a chicken barbeque for the spring. The resulting income was used to send several representatives to the national FCA conference, the reputed highlight of every serious Christian Athlete ' s career.

Believing that practice makes perfect, the team alternated their stands upon various issues every two weeks, with inter¬ scholastic competition ranking high upon their schedule of activities. Acting as host to the district tournament in April, the rookie team quickly proved their mettle throughout the district. The State Invita¬ tional Meet, at which the team took a firm stand upon the pros and cons of federal control of air and water pollution, closed a busy but informative year for the Debate Team. if r Bf ««-« -j r” .

The band, beneath the watchful gaze of director, Mr. Phillips, formed ever-changing amebas that uniquely portrayed various football personalities. Guest appear¬ ances at U. Va. Band Day and Washington and Lee Uni¬ versity were the highlights of the year, while the enthu¬ siastic Pep Band added their zestful harmonies to each football game and pep rally. An appearance in the Fall Foliage Festival Parade and a blue-ribbon performance in the Christmas Parade proved that the WHS Purple and Gold Marching Band abounded in Talent.

Concert companions unite According to tradition, the hallowed halls of WHS rang this year with the melodious tones of the concert band during their daily first-period rehearsals. The successful performance of difficult music became the key factor in demonstrating the many talents of the director, Mr. Phil¬ lips, and the band members. Preparing for annual con¬ certs and the district festival competition provided ample work for the band but a few industrious members sallied forth to present a Christmas concert from the Fishburne Drug Store marquee. The WHS Stage Band added spice to the concerts in addition to providing entertainment for various schools and organizations.

CHOIR FAME GROWS STATE-WIDE The 1970-71 WHS Concert Choir exhibited a quality rarely found except in professional circles. Under the direction of Mr. Roger Zimmerman, the choir staged performances for many inspired audiences, including Winchester and Harrisonburg. An invitation to attend a clinic at the Shenandoah Conservatory of Music demonstrated the extent of their fame. Waynesboro ' s elementary schools were also treated at the close of the year with appearances by the choir. In addition, the group did not forget WHS as they presented annual concerts at school assemblies.

These were the goals of the WHS Mixed Chorus under the direction of Mr. Roger Zimmerman. The course served as a preparatory step for more intricate studies while furnishing an outlet for those who simply enjoy music. Participating in the annual Christmas and spring concerts, the mixed chorus demonstrated de¬ lightful talent which surpassed the expectations of the audience. The students ' hopes of attending Dis¬ trict Festival grew stronger as the year progressed, and the WHS Mixed Chorus showed that they could toe the mark .

Sis-boom-ba! Gooo-o-o Giants! Well, perhaps their support wasn ' t always of the vocal type, but the WHS Pep Club certainly knew which team to cheer for. Through the efforts of the Pep Club, every athlete understood that the school was behind him. The halls were illuminated with posters boosting the unconquerable purple and gold . Patronizing the players and coaches, the Pep Clubbers formed corridors through which the foot¬ ball players entered the field.

Service was the password for the WHS Key Club this year as they strove to help the community through various projects. The Key Clubbers per¬ formed many necessary tasks, such as ushering the Junior Miss Pageant and helping with sport events. Lining the football field before each game proved an industrious undertaking for the group, and the Kiwanis Club secured key aid in city-wide peanut sales and a barbeque. Sponsor Mr. Knicely and his active club were justly proud of their fine year. (Bl ABOVE: Scrub-a-dub-dub! Hey the car ' s too big for a tub!

Service to others became their major concern as the year pro¬ gressed; making weekly trips to Western State Hospi¬ tal to cheer the patients, helping to establish Keyette chapters in Lexington and Harrisonburg, and lending a hand in the Stocking Stuffer Shop were only a few of their ceaseless projects. In addition, diverse fund-raising endeavors - the selling of candy apples at football games, the kissing booth at Sadie Hawkins, the “shoe shine day , the singing Valentines, the peddling of candy after school, and the faithful bottle drive — supplemented their treasury. With Mrs. Swisher as sponsor, the Keyette group energetically focused on improving their world.
