WEST MONTGOMERY HIGH SCHOOL MOUNT GILEAD, NORTH CAROLINA To West Montgomery we pledge our youth, our enthusiasm, our vigor. For we are a people on the move, constantly changing and revising, but always giving to West something special. . . a part of ourselves. Together we form a tribe, not only to learn, but to share experiences, secrets, fears, and dreams. The passing of time will separate us, but for today, lives begin here.

Freshmen got under foot as they began the struggle through the halls of West Montgomery. The usual faces ap- peared and amidst them a soft- spoken, Spanish-speaking Latin American could be seen and heard-Elmer. A U.S. president was forced to resign. Ehrlichman, Halderman, Dean, Mitchell. Government of- ficials were tried and convicted just as ordinary citizens. Water- gate resolved? Gerald Ford was sworn in as our new president while Rockefeller filled in the space for vice-president. Forthe first time in history neither pres- ident nor vice-president was elected by the people. Reevaluation kept the faculty in a frenzy as they prepared for the February visitation committee. Reaccreditation by the Southern Association of Schools and Col- leges was invaluable to West. Industries closed down and lay- offs were frequent as unemploy- ment soared to 7 and 805. There was talk of another depression as food prices continued to rise. Food stamps were issued and unemployment checks were vital. There was turkey on the table as Thanksgiving brought the usual two day vacation and televi- sion broadcast the big parades. Wilbur Mills and Fannie Fox made their debut while Evel Knievel vainly attempted to jump the Snake River. December brought rain, rain, rain, exams, and Santa, who wasn't as generous because his customers had less to spend. Christmas was more meaningful and not as commercial because of price hikes and unemployment. The bloodmobile was lost to East but West Montgomery pro- duced the first female Morehead nominee. ' ' Chrissie Evert and Jimmy Conners made the sports news with their lovematch. Jack Benny died at 39 and Elvis turned 40. Parties and a T.V. Chicago con- cert rang in 1975. Resolutions were made only to later be broken as the year preceding the bicen- its of Warrior Talk tennial officially began. Catastrophic movies kept the the- ater business booming. Long lines waited for tickets to THE TO- WERING INFERNO, AIRPORT '75, and EARTHQUAKE. Burt Reynolds starred in THE LON- GEST YARD, while twoallbeefpat- tiesspecialsaucelettucecheese picklesoniononasesameseedbun, pizza, and cokes were consumed daily. Redwood red livened up the dull yellow color scheme of the restrooms and provided a wel- come change. Television came on with THE GODFATHER, THE STERILE CUCKOO, World at War, Rhoda, Chico and the Man, Hee Haw, and That's My Mama, while vibra- tions of Elton, Chicago, Doobie Brothers, Eagles, Led Zepplin, Chi-Lites, Sly, and Paul Anka drifted from every radio. Sausage, pork chops, ham, and tenderloin were the result of Mr. Field's future farmers and present hog-killers of America. The Jan- uary hope for snow lingered but the rain kept falling and cloudy skies and cold days deluded us. Two week philosophy courses added a touch of Greek wisdom to senior English classes as they explored the minds of Plato and Socrates. Then Valentine's Day came with hearts and flowers breaking the monotony of winter months. Foreign Language Week kept Latin and French classes busy with posters, tennis matches, skits, and bike hikes. Mr. Virgil Miller gave special programs and Jean Perez amazed us with his knowledge and numerous de- grees from French universities. East and West came together for French club meetings andjconver- sation classes. Easter gave us a welcomed vacation and a chance to enjoy spring while seniors counted the days until graduation. And we were caught up in the midst of ballgames, books, friends, and teachers -living our youth, being ourselves, and for- getting that time was passing by. 10 As we climb toward wisdom, seeking strength and guidance, more and more, we become individuals. We celebrate our youth with shouts and laughter, but tomorrow never escapes our minds. X Look, look around you. At the faces, at th smiles, at the world. Think, think about the di ferences in each of us, and yet how we are a the same. All searching . . . pondering . . giggling. . .fumbIing. Being a miI.Iion differei people in the course of one day. Confusing ou selves, confusing others, yet believing, when a seems doubtful, and trusting, when all hope gone.

He can be heard shouting Give me a W, give me an E, give me a S, give me a T at a pep rally. He is seen quietly supervising our dances in the gym. His presence at the ballgames, at special club activities, and inthe halls during school hours all serve as ways to influence us and to set good examples. Mr. Donnell combines the talents of adviser, businessman, judge, and supporter. He is a constant reminder to us that our behavior in school has a great deal to do with our behavior after we graduate, and that we should do all that we can to improve it. one .

They prepare absentee lists and announcements, keep money matters straight, and keep school records in order. They handle school correspondence and keep accurate accounts of school business. Assistant Principal David Holcomb ibottom Ieftl helps keep an eye on school activities. He takes part in many of the decisions concerning the school. He helps co-ordinate events at West and supervises many of them himself. Mrs. Elizabeth Simpson fbottom rightj is the county high school supervisor.

The library provided us with valuable sources of information which helped us test our own imagination and ideas. Scores from the PSAT and the SAT and booklets on different colleges were just some of the things we went to the guidance counselors for. They explained what the scores meant and how important they were. The information they gave helped us deter- mine which college was probably best for us. tClockwise, beginning top lefti Mrs. Abbigail Hawkins, Guid ance Counselorg Miss Etta Wrenn, Guidance Counselorg Mrs Sally Howard, Librarianq Mrs. Magenta Donnell.

We were either boiling solutions, identifying chemicals, or cleaning up the lab desks. When we dissected frogs, we had to be careful not to cut something that might give us five extra points. Writing formulas was tricky. We had to be sure that we were using the right chemical symbol. fAbove, left to rightj Mr. Fred Barden, Chemistry, Project Phys- ics, Miss Elizabeth Hartsell, Physical Science, Biology, Mrs. Norma Koch, Biology. r MM' Science 123 X I ' ' 512f..,f521:-' 3 J -. fl-'TJ' f , kv 1 .. :w I 9ciUfb0090iN ,f S-.5 Quick fingers and a good eye for mistakes helped in Typing I and Il.

We are now beginning to realize that the future is us, therefore, reading and composition will be necessary and valuable tools for the post-Watergate generation. lTop left to rightl Mrs. Deborah Barden, English, Latin, Mr. John Cullers, English.

This year we had the op- portunity to improve our reading skills in Miss Ewings' English class. Our knowledge increased as we were taught the different aspects of career education in Mr. Johnson's occupational preparation class. The many field trips and exploratory activities were stimulating.

Englishllfteading FrenchlLatin is 5 Learning to speak French and translating the Latin language proved to be difficult, but very rewarding. Sixty to ninety percent of our English words are derivatives of the Latin language, and over 54,000,000 people tone in seventyl in the world speak French. After diligently studying these two languages, we soon realized the value of a language other than English. tTop centert Mrs. Catherine Hodges, French. ik F 'l MM For the first time we were given the chance to show our crea- tivity by way of art. Some days were spent down by the pond sketching the school building or drawing portraits of live models from study hall. By the use of chalks, crayons, and water colors we were able to put our imaginations and personalities down on paper. To provide ourselves with a greater appreciation of the art of music we took band or chorus. Through the year we practiced for concerts and boosted school spirit with our lively pep band at pep rallies.

Fortunately, courses in agriculture are of- fered at West to help insure future populations of an abundant food supply. Mechanical drawing gives us the opportunity to view things dif- ferently. Picking out an object and drawing it from our viewpoint is a common practice in this class. This course provides a background for further study in architecture and drafting. One of the more practical courses offered to us is general industries. In this course we learn skills in the field of plumbing, welding, refrigeration, carpentry, and electrical work. While working in the county schools, we receive useful experience. fClockwise, beginning top rightl Mr. Sid Fields, Mr. James Gentry, Agriculture, Mr. Fi.H. Kendall, General ln- dustriesg lVlr.

Faculty Statistics ia It was more fun to be a senior than to be an underclassman because we were given more privileges and recognition. When the band broke into Hail to the Warriors everyone rose and we entered the gym. We left class and went to lunch five minutes early to insure us of chocolate milk and a shorter wait in the lunch line. Al- though we didn't always eat, we enjoyed sitting and talking with our friends. After waiting twelve long years, we finally achieved what every underclassman admired - our class rings - we felt superior. One privilege that mini-courses almost took away from us was the exemption from final exams. Every underclassman waits for the day when he can say I didn't have to take my English exam! This gave us the incentive to make A's and not cut classes. Raising money for the senior class present is always a Seniors pain, but this year we hit the gold mine! We rented a jukebox for 330, threw the first dance of the year, and cleared 3411. Miss Meacham, through the Bible and Beowulf, was deter- mined to increase our knowledge of prophecy and prose. As soon as we entered room one, we began to see the Bible as a literary masterpiece rather than just a religious work. While sitting at football games, we realized that this was the last year that we would be able to get into the game for 51.00, or to be able to see Win Dozier complete a touchdown pass to Ervin Hill or Jeff Britt. Our friends became closer to us because we began to real- ize that we would never see them again under the same cir- cumstances. At the beginning of the second semester senioritis hit us, and it didn't go away until we started out of the gym grad- uation night clutching our diplomas in our hands.

The junior year is more hectic than the years preceding it. The big event of the year rested in our hands. The Junior- Senior Prom was ours to contend with. We had to make it the best prom that had ever been given. As we made our plans in sworn secrecy, we wondered if the seniors actually did know our theme. Raising money for the prom was a hassle as always. We decided to sell something different this year. Along with the usual candy sale, we pushed records and tapes, also. As Barry, Linda, Teresa, and Rodney led us through decisions, decorations, and deadlines, we wondered if we were ever going to complete the prom. We had heard of Ms. Lee's English class, but there was no- thing like actually being there. Reading reports due every Tuesday and book reports just about as often. For those of us who studied, vocabulary tests every Friday gave us an easy ftluniors 100. Chemistry class was also an experience. Learning every type of beaker and flask, but most of all learning not to break them and not to burn chemistry lab down while attempting to light a bunsen burner, were sometimes learned the hard way. Mrs. AIlen's Algebra ll class began with Venn diagramsq then through mathematical induction we fought with our limited ability to make two things equal that were completely unequal. Taking the SAT for the first time was a traumatic experi- ence for us. Sitting in the same chair for three hours was bad enough, but l've never seen a mathematical problem like that in my life! Did they say we were supposed to know this? Our junior year has been nifty, but we can't help looking ahead to the future - our senior year. We're the class of '76! ,T m,Wy,,g,.w?,,,,, 2 3'f1':,f?+'z NNY ww f 'ffr f - V .L Donna Adams Bruton Allen Tom Anthony Trip Bailey Annie Baldwin Annie Mae Baldwin Arlene Baldwin Wanda Ballard Courtland Barringer Holly Beaman Johnny Beane Dinah Bennett Laura Blake Renita Blake Phil Bland Millicent Bowden Jimmy Bradley Mike Brown Tommy Bruton Curtis Burrow Frances Butler Marilyn Butler Betty Cagle Phyllis Callicutt Brenda Carpenter Debbie Carter Clifton Ch am bers Juniors f- .4 , if f kv 'llm ui A 1 s ,r ix ,, jr. .Xl K l f 52 1 3 a ri ' .af ,, VN X lil in t,.r get T D-A N., K 2 5 .id new ,,,..wu L. 1. in-.,. r , A x YQ f , fl' '7 N9 f af' fi , Q A ' 'tif' frghfgt' J - ff 5 ' xx t 55,62 '-1 , ,Agni ' A- .fix ,, ,..W,tifw - 511.714 . -,.-- . 5 G' it i r N Gi 25 , .- - .

The most exciting part was when I knew! Because of the new group of freshmen, we were no longer under the watchful eye of the seniors. We began to feel more a part of the student life at West. Our days were full of dissections and DNA molecules as we struggled through biology . . . an organized notebook, a wrinkle-free paper and with all straight lines, an unbroken nerve cord for an extra five points, and a newspaper article every Monday were our requirements to pass biology. Each day we wondered if Mr. Wilkins would start geometry class with one sheet of paper and a pencil, please. Even though it was only a quiz, we had fear of receiving too many low grades and no curves. The joys of receiving our driver's licenses were not having to bum rides to ballgames or having to double-date with a Sophomores couple we could not stand. When we went to a J.V, football game we knew that this was our own special team because it represented the freshman and sophomore classes. Being able to take part in more extracurricular activities and having joined clubs and supported all of their money raising projects were just part of the fun of our sophomore year. English ll consisted of skits, grammar, and literature. Miss Nooe, even though it was her first year as a teacher at West, assisted us in developing our personal characteristics as well as our mental attitude. Mark Moore presided over our class for the second time. Amy Flusseli, Helen McAuley, and Darlene Kelly helped to lead our class through a very memorable time in our lives.

We no longer thought about beating Mount Gilead or Troyg we concentrated on stomping East Montgomery and North Moore. In the eighth grade we were the oldest in school and as freshmen we were faced with being the youngest. But supris- ingly enough, we had one advantage: we got our driving permits when we were fifteen. That came about only after struggling through the bloody films and wreckless driving of driver's ed. The most embarrassing part of freshman P,E. was walking through the halls with wet hair and a red face and taking oc- casional insults from the upperclassmen. But that was no- thing compared to what happened to us when we forgot our gym cloths on Monday after taking them home on Friday to be wash ed. Proving theorems with postulates was among the many new things we were confronted with in Algebra I, Playing games was an easy way to memorize the necessary informa- tion. Freshmen I'lI never forget the first home ballgame when I sat in the student cheering section. It was a great feeling when I looked around and saw familiar faces. Then, being a part of the student life at West, I went to a dance and felt that I belonged. Our first test in English I consisted of writing the Fight Song and Alma Mater. Using ain't in class was unfor- givable. Down went a zero in Mrs. Sell's gradebook for each time it was said. t'Ain't that right freshmen? Comparing the depression of the'193O's with current infla- tion and rising costs of living were two of the most relevant things talked about in U.S. history. We did make history though. For the first time, we elected a girl as president of the freshman class. Sandy Winn, along with Steven Winn, Milton Ftudisell and Adrian Ellerbe led us through a period that we and the school may never forget. My freshman year I understood more about myself and my friends. Next year it won't be so hard to speak up when I have something to say. It was a good experience. I learned from it. gmc' 4 l ,iw 46 .vw bm 5... ,,.,q., .pf , ,, ww f....J LV? 4 4,4 Bobby Alexander Monty Allen Linda Allsbrooks Anna Armstrong Darlene Atkins Lewis Atkins Mack Bailey Sylvia Bailey Annie Baldwin Dennis Batten Phillip Batten Portia Batten Richard Beck Tammy Biggers Jeff inns James Bogans Nathan Bowden Jimmy Bowles Marie Bowles Jim Bowman Tracy Bradley Janet Bristow Lenard Britt Dona Brown Clayton Burns Leslie Burns Kevin Burroughs Carl Burrow Francis Butler Debbie Byrd Frankie Byrd Jimmie Byrd Robin Cagle Kea Capel Steven Carey Carrie Carter Fred Carter Donna Chappell Revonda Chappell Buck Cochran Don Coggins Debbie Cooke Rhonda Cooke Blanshire Covington Rickey Covington Lynn Crabtree Judy Cranford Monty Crump Carlton Davis Denise Deninger Aimee Dozier Betty Drake Jo Ella Drake Cynthia Dumas Freshmen all KI 31 I f. saw. , . lift: t A i Z i Q.

We were proud of our peers and their accomplishments. They represented us - West. Eleven of our top-notch juniors were selected last spring to represent the junior class in a farewell to the seniors. The honors of being marshals were credits to our friends' academic achievements. The year 1974 put an end to the precedent that only males could be nominated for Morehead Scholarships. This year two of our three nominees were girls. For the first time in four years, one of our students won the county nomination. Again we felt proud to be part of West - cultivator of our poten- tials. Two of our classmates were nominated and chosen to attend the 1974 session of the Governors School of North Carolina. It was another honor added to the long list as GS students were stimulated by experiences with intelligent and talented students from other schools in the state. Achievements, awards, and honors - milestones in the lives of students.

Elmer Rolando Morales Lima, 18, dwelt in the midst of Westlife throughout the year. His easy manner tinged with a little shyness aided him in his transi- tion to West. Elmer indentified his favorite food and subject as hamburgers and social studies - and of course, like any red- blooded Guatemalan, he loves girls. facial' Clockwise below: Governor's School talent nominees were Cleft to rightj Butch Reynolds, Alane Wilder, and Millicent Bowden.

The past is security, and the future is challenging and exciting. lt's hard to say good-by to a place as special as West, but the memories made here will always serve as smiles on rainy days. Lynn Safrit Through the years I have been constantly amazed by the many sincere students and teachers I have encountered. West Montgomery will always remain to me as a tribute to these people. Win Dozier 'When l became a part of West it was my utmost desire to participate in sports, organizations, and events that make up Westlife. My four years have taught me perseverance, a respect for knowledge, and a strong belief that one should strive to develop his full potentialitiesf' Evie Kerr lt seems only yesterday I first became a part of West. Now I find myself preparing to leave the security of childhood friendships and begin once again, but the memories of their smiles and laughter will always be with me. Beverly Hartsell My four years at West have been packed full of good times, bad times, and a lot of studying. Many people and things have had a part in my life and I look forward to the future, but I feel that I must hold on to alittle of the past. Wendy Haithcock Being a lover of school and people has benefited my growth as an individual. As a product of those around me, being an average student was not enough. There are always more points to make. This training ground has been a rewardg I shall expand upon it. Gloria Leake Cheering is something I enjoy doing - putting all l've got into it. Even if we lose a game, l still feel as if we've won something else. Donna Christian 92, Outstandi I I s 0 UQ I have been molded into a productive human being in my short stay at West. Through football at West I have learned to face life's conflicts. Speak kindly of others, so that others will speak kindly of you. Earlvin Hill During my four years at West I have tried to live with enthusiasm and without apathy. I hope I have convinced someone of the importance of vitality, education, independence, and individuality, both to West and to self. Edward Barton Looking back on four years that I never thought would end - I realize that those years held the best times of my life. As the future quickly comes, my past will be forgotten. But my memories of West can never be replaced. Kay Maness My four years at West have been the best years of my life. Everyone here seems to work together to reach their goals and there are always smiling faces. That's what it takes to make happiness, and it has given me a lot of fond memories. LuEllen Poole I have found, during my years at West, that everyone has a life, but it is the way you live that makes you outstanding. Deena Koch My four years at West have been filled with a sense of expectancy and anticipation.As a result of my education and personal relationships, I feel less hesitant to face the ever-uncertain future. Christy Morris Playing basketball at West has been one of the most exciting thrills in my life. It's one thing that keeps me going.

Five conference wins rewarded us second place in the conference but one very important loss kept us from a state playoff berth. Pre-season predictions labeled us the team to beat in the con- ference. This was constantly on our minds as the season grew nearer, and the dog races and wind sprints became just a little easier to run. We lost our opener 6-13 in the rain at 3-A Southern Durham. Miserable was a good word to describe the whole affair. Randleman was our next destination. We came away with a 15- 6 victory and the feeling that we were beginning to be what we were supposed to be. West Fiowan fell the next week 13-6. lt felt good to play in front of the home crowd. We opened conference action against Siler City, defeating them 8-0 at West. The score was misleadingg we clearly dominat- ed the game. We traveled to Pittsboro next to tangle with conference power wo, Varsity Football Northwood. The defense held them to a mere seven yards rushing as we came home with a 28-7 win. The next three games were at home against Chatham Central, North Moore, and St. Pauls. We turned to offense as victories ol 41-0,68-O, and 49-0 were produced. But the lop-sided wins wor- ried some of us. Unior Pines loomed ahead. We all knew in the back of our minds that we were a better team than Union Pines, but they were prepared for us that night. Everything that could possibly go wrong did as the Vikings shocked us 35-0 on their own field. We finished up the season the next week by defeating East 22-6 for the umpteenth straight time.

Our coaches, Mr. Jerry Daniels, Mr. Eddie Campbell, and Mr. Don Hankins fed into us all the knowledge of the sport of football that we could possibly remember and carry out effectively. It paid off as we went on to rank second in the conference standings for the year with a six-win, three-tie, and one-loss record. ln our first game of the regular season we defeated Northwood with a score of 20-6 and so started off a winning seasong so we thought. The following week all hopes of a perfect season vanquished when we met in a stalemate against East Davidson, the resulting score being 0-0. We got on the right track the next week when we defeated East Randolph 22-12, but we bounced back the following week with another tie game, this one being against Jordan Matthews, 6-6. Having won a pre-season scrimmage against Forest Hills, we didn't have to play Southern Durham who were scheduled for September 26. On the 10th of October we battled Chatham Central here and rallied over them 51-6. North Moore succumbed to us the following week when we defeated them 24-6. Our only loss of the season was when Anson County came and defeated us 24-20. Again, we chalked ourselves up another tie when we met Union Pines in a bitterly fought game, the resulting score being 18-18. The Eagles of East Montgomery were our last remaining opponents, and we shut them out with a score of 8-0. 02 J V. Football Y 4 of ' 4':,Q 4' 0 1,0 iw. -., K 'L .,,.

We battled to a third place in the conference tournament, bowing to North Moore 6-3. Cold winter days in February provided less than perfect playing conditions and sore arms were plentiful, but Coach Ray kept our spirits high, and we always played hard. We were young and the outlook for next year seemed good. James Haywood and Billy Haywood represented us on the all-conference team fol- lowing season play.

W The 1974 golf team experienced another outstanding year, taking first or second in all seven conference matches and finishing second in the conference tournament. We suffered only two losses, one each to North Stanly and Asheboro. We practiced long and hard, sometimes playing past dusk, but in the end we were proud of what we had accomplished. At year's end Phil Bland and Bill Howell were awarded all-con- ference honors. Bland also set two school records on the way to being named Most Valuable Golfer. He finished up the year by qualifying for the state finals, only the second player in West history to do so. fAbove Ieftl Bill Howell is all determination as he prepares to tee off. fAbove rightl Phil Bland follows through a swing. Golf X123 Another year has gone by and so another track season. Although a major team rebuilding proj- ect was needed, we finished with a third place position in the conference for the year. Track team coaches James Garmon, Fred Barden, and Mike Johnson aided us greatly with their knowledge of the various events as we competed against other schools within the conference. Pre-season practice began early in February in preparation for our first meet which was scheduled for March 7, against Flichmond County and Lumberton. Those few weeks of practice earned us second place in the meet. Our next scheduled competition was to come the following week against Jordan Matthews. We placed second in that meet, and we also placed second to Hoke County the following Thursday. In all, we competed in a total of ten meets for the season, including the conference meet held at Sandhills Community College, and we earned a total of one first-place position, five second- place positions, three third-place positions, and finally one fifth-place position. Earl Bowden emerged to be our star athelete as his constant performance on the track and field gave us those much needed points. Earl was the conference high scorer at the conference meet at Sandhills on May 6. At this important meet he placed first in four events which include the long jump, triple jump, 120 high hurdles, and the discus throw. He gained atotal of 144 V2 points for the year. Other outstanding feats at the conference meet included David Harper's winning the 440 yard dash and Jimmy Lilly's winning jump in the high jump event. A school record for West was set by Fred Little in the shot put event when he tossed the steel ball for 45'-103A: The enhanced efforts of team members such as David Little, Steve Lucus, Leo Graham, Dusty Pappendick, and others led the team to win the number three spot in the conference meet. fAbovej E.

A small write-up was put in the SMOKE SIGNAL to give them special recognition. Committees were appointed within the council to select these people each month, and a journalism student was put on the committee to write the article. Our bulletin board in the lobby provided the student body with information concerning the council and the school. The calendar we published monthly contained the dates of club meetings and other occurrances around West for that month. Also Ear Day gave the students the opportunity to voice compliments or gripes about anything at West. Under the leadership of Mike Cooke, our president, and new sponsors, Mrs. Debbie Barden and Mr. James Ray, we had a successful year in the Student Council.

President Rachael Preusz urged us on as we spent one of our October Satur- days washing cars at Troy Elementary School. Advised by Mrs. Louise Dorsett and Mrs. Barbara Sells, we made an amendment to the constitution, giving seniors a final chance to become members of the club.

Windshield stickers were another project we undertook to raise money for school projects. Our main purpose under the leadership of Mr. Fred Barden and Mr. Jerry Daniel was to become better men. Promoting international understanding through united youth, and ser- vicing our communities were our highest goals. President George Carr led us through the year.

Not everyone is born with a computer for a brain so president David Dennis decided to provide the next best thing, Our pocket calculator raffle, initiated by advisers Mrs. Yvonne Allen and Mr. Bryant Ford, made homework a little less difficult for one lucky student. 34 lVlath 'Q -' . 1 4 4 . -,U T KQ ifgrksigf Q' ., 1 as 'x'3f?3k f .ga at. , , 15 fi 'Q J. fu ' V' W ,H ,g V .l ,ff lb When we joined the world of science we en- countered some great experiences ranging from raffling a turkey to investigating on a rock hunt. Guest speakers were invited to several of our meetings where we listened and acknowl- edged facts on topics ranging from archae- ology to molecules and viruses. Going exciting places on our field trips added more attraction to our busy year. Our ambition was to follow through with a wider view of science and to have an opportu- nity to experiment with geology, astronomy, and other fields of science. Tom Anthony, president, and Miss Elizabeth Hartsell, sponsor, guided us through the year.

This prepared us for the occupational choices ex- isting in agriculture today. We were attiliated with FFA chapters throughout the nation and therefore participated in district, regional, state, and national activities. Under the leadership of president Harold Hurley and advisers Mr. Sidney Fields and Mr. James Gentry, we experienced a year of suc' cess with highlights being a trip to Kansas City, Missouri, for two of our members, the construction and development of a rose garden, and an award of S300. for a display at the State Fair. 136 FFA 3 0 The Future Homemaking organization was designed to ease some of the tensions placed on the family by helping us achieve happiness and satisfaction in our personal lives. At- tending district and state conventions and hearing special speakers and programs helped us learn modern techniques in homemaking. Since the family is the nucleus of our soci- ety, being efficent homemakers and striving for a happy and satisfying home life is our way of exerting a strong influence on individual, na- tional, and international stability. Club pres- ident was Penny Reeder. Club advisers were Mrs. M. Miles and Mrs. A.

He spoke to us on becoming a doctor and the different types of medicines. The purpose of our club is to train us for a certain vocational field.

We traveled to Fay- etteville, Ocotber 23, to attend the District Leadership Conference which was enjoyed and appreciated tremendously by all. Our bake sale, gas raffle, and calendar sale helped raise money to improve our depart- ment. The club's main purpose was to prepare us for our future after graduation with jobs in dis- tribution. Miss Hayes, sponsor, and president Dennis Cunningham directed us through the year. Deca ,139 This was a year of change and new ideas for the Tri-Hi-Y. Borrowing a custom from other clubs, we staged an initiation for new members. Those of us selected to join the club dressed as squaws, then exhibited our vocal talents as we sang the fight song before the student body at the homecoming pep rally. Vet- eran members donned feathered headbands, identifying us as slaves to co-captains of the football team for one day. Under the leadership of Mrs. Norma Koch and Miss Phebie Ewings, president Karen Smith planned a trip to the local rest homes where we presented carefully rehearsed songs and skits to the guests. 40 Tri-Hi-Y v. lr V -NNN v as Q Following the tradition of previous Hi-Y clubs we constructed a teepee at the stadi- um entrance to greet homecoming game spec- tators with Warrior spirit. To increase our treasury, we raffled a country ham which was won by Mrs, Yvonne Allen. Our chaplains, Derwin Beane and Mike Cooke, were forced to meet an early deadline each morning as they gave the devotions and announcements. Guided by sponsors Mr. Donald Stout and Mr. Donald Hankins, we abolished the usual idea of another Thanksgiving dance and opted for a banquet in January where our queen was crowned by president Win Dozier. Hi-Y 41 A11 After our decision to raise money to cover the cost of a French teacher's aide, we were never seen without a stack of red and black briefolios layered among our books. When we cut the price from seventy-five to fifty cents, our treasury began to swell. Books and films serve their purpose, but no- thing compares to learning by taste-testing a sample of true French cuisine. We experienced the atmosphere of a European restaurant as we dined at El Villa in Charlotte. Arranged by sponsor Mrs. Cathy Hodges and president Barbara Wright, we joined with East's club for several meetings and conversa- tion hours where we learned by sharing. 42,French We spread the flavor and customs of ancient Rome throughout the school during Latin Week. A Roman feast for members, a banquet forthe faculty, and Toga Day went into our cel- ebration, the highlight of our year. With a new club Constitution, we enhanced our Latin spirit and identity through our new name, the Advocati Latini or Latin Advocates. Latin ,143 K li 5 , NN' sg., W ,M 4 W .. ' AL ,iw N.. The FTA gave us experience and prepara- tion for teaching in the future. Cadet teaching, a course added this year allowed three students to leave West each day at 12:45 to as- sist grade teachers at the local elementary schools. Under the leadership of president Jane lngold and advisers lVlr. Wilkins and Miss Meacham, we believe we've received a better understanding of the teaching profession. 441 FTA 1? in wr-S-gp 3 1 b::.,,1 'Ll V' iw?

FBLAMS Www , ,Wf- va www x as t y X ! Under the supervision of Mrs. Yvonne Allen and lvlr. Bryant Ford, we met monthly to learn more about the game of chess.

We became more familiar with the theatrical world through presentations of our own such as the Christmas play. Our understanding of dramas place in society became more real as we attended several other presentations and realized the hard work they involved. Drama lm Enthusiasm and pep were the main purposes of our existence. Treating the football players with cokes and cookies before their St. Pauls victory, selling pep pins, and sponsoring a car caravan to East were some ofthe highlights of the year. We experienced many triumphant wins and some losses, giving support up to the closing minutes of the final game. Boosting the cheerleaders and keeping a smiling face when the scoreboard didn't look its best was one of our biggest goals.

Excitement and enjoyment were the dominant emotions as we stood before the student body and sang at Thanksgiving and Christmas assemblies. Singing at the junior high schools, churches, and concerts made us teel important. We always became shaky before a concert, but after our voices began to flow, we became calm and relaxed. Yes, it was a great experience. Chorus is is Our objectives were to provide all types of materials to meet everyones varied needs and interests. We helped guide students in refer- ence and research work by assisting in keeping the library in efficient working order. Checking out books, distributing audiovisual materials and equipment, and reshelving books were just a few of our tasks. Under the guidance of Mrs. Magenta Donnell and Mrs. Sally Howard, we kept the library's materials available to the students and faculty. 52 Library dl i This year marked our beginning. Under the leadership of Mr, Ed Williams, we came together because of our interest in singing. Working as a group for the first time we showed suprising progress. We sang before the student body, ushered at concerts, and developed our interest in the musical field. Adding a new facet to the music department, we were proud to be the first group of West Singers.

Working together as a team we struggled over many obstacles to meet an early WARRIOR deadline. Under Miss Lee's constant supervision we worked steadily and earnestly, encouraged by co- editors Beverly Hartsell and Evie Kerr fopposite rightb. Section editors began to realize the difficulties they would encounter in completing their lists and writing copy for the first time. They decided they would settle down to some hard work. Finally the days of cropping pictures, dreaming up headlines, and rewriting copy were Completed, as the '75 WARRIOR went to press on time. The SMOKE SIGNAL we published monthly informed students and kept them up to date about what was going on around the campus. lt contained exciting club news and all the little cutes that happened in class written up in a new column entitled, Glimpses. There was complete coverage about what was going on to help keep West Best! Edited by Edward Barton and Lynn Satrit fopposite bottom lefty there were always articles to be written and more people to interview, but we didn't mind, because we wanted our Smoke Signals to be the best. Around March students started to search the back of their minds for any small piece of literary genius they might have. It was time to submit art work to VOICES, our self-supported flne arts magazine. As the poems and photographs came in, co-editors Wendy Haithcock and Deena Koch topposite topt began selec- tion, proof-reading, and layout of the 1975 VOICES which was the last major accomplishment of '74-75 journalism class. 158, Journalism 'L N113 if ,H ,,,...,,,..,,, ,- LQ52f'Q f W x-f S f 1 Journalism ,159 A last cheer echoes from the gym, remains of rallies to urge us on. i Our style, unique from all others, Pieces of a memorable junior-senior, a y y y y ff ' y my ,if banquets to honor clubs and athletes, well-deserved recognition to those who hold after-school jobs, 1 and to those who keep West spotless.

The classwork was easy, the driving hectic. But the true test of nerves and maturity was determined by whether we passed or failed on the highway. We emerged victorious with a treasured piece of paper to show off and visions of dating, cruising the Burger Shack, and Better Burger, and taking our turns in the car pool filling our heads. E E r t r i 1 5 ! une 4, 1974 -the beginning of 88 carefree, lazy days which would, as time sped by, make up summer of '74, Some of us fled to the beaches, smeared ourselves with the latest suntan oil, and then lay back to wait for mother sun to make us irresistible, while many patronized the local pools. Tennis balls bounced on every available court, and tenspeed racers were peddled through the streets. Most of us held jobs, making money for clothes, cars, and college. We worked at mills, stores or wherever no experience was required. Summer camps provided us with lifelong memories of friends met and experiences shared. Then, all too soon the fall-colored leaves pushed our summer sun away, and we found ourselves once again inthe halls of West Montgomery-a tribe united . . . SUMMER f 5 f -Q 74 Banqueting With Spring came banquets, and there could be no better time for gathering to socialize and enjoy a delicious meal. The French Club wined and dined at the Torch where delicious cuisine consisted of seven courses complete with crepes suzettes and baked alaska. The Latin banquetfollowed with the traditional togas atmosphere. A moderrtgdayiiideal of steak and baked potatoes replaced the Roman diet of truitiand cheese. The athletes came from sport at West. Male and female dragging parents along to see us and our prestigious teammates re- ceive our sweated-for letters and honors of distinction. After an impressive meal we sat back to listen to Mr. Ed Emory representing Clemson University. James gHay- wood took the highest honor of all by receiving the Outstanding Athlete award. roviding a break from the routine day of Henry David Thoreau, mathematical inductions, and the Battle of Gettysburg, we assembled eagerly, with respect to grade and homerooms. lt was here we praised the athletically inclined and ignited the spark for countless sports gatherings. We listened intently as our peers presented themselves as candidates for esteemed offices, then later retreated to the polls to cast our ballot. Entertainment by traveling artists and local bands added extra spice to the meetings. It was here we learned to function as a group - a people together . . .

Bulletin boards sprang up with Christmas messages, and clubs celebrated with parties and caroling. Ham and turkey dinners adorned our tables while candlelight services for many brought through the peace and wonder of a Savior being born. And then it was over.
