E losest to the Be t-'E The facts were out. To students, faculty, and parents across the county, the case was clear. It was examined, questioned, and challenged until finally it was proven - West is as close to the best as there is. The celebrated awakening came after years of ups and downs but at last it had occured. For the first time in twenty-two years, the Colts had secured the number two position in the conference and the right to advance to the State play-offs. After years of sitting back and watching other teams advance to the play-offs, the Colts had proven the fact once and for all that we were tied with the best in the county. The feeling of victory and of being the best had barely caught on. Word came down from Civitan International that we were chartering the largest Jr. Civitan Club in all of NC District West. Suddenly we were the obstacle to overcome, especially by schools in Stanly County. But it didn't stop there. Computers had revolutionized the school. Attendance Q records were updated and circulated and for the first time the administration was made fully aware of attendance problems without delay. The computer era also affected registration. Headaches were lessened, classes went undisturbed, and registration took one tenth of the time it had taken in past years. The computers virtually reassessed teacher's methods and changed the meaning of the infinitive to teach . The business department teachers found that it was quite a bit easier to teach the typewriter keyboard by computer than by teaching it off the blackboard. For the second year in a row, the Auto-Mechanics Department has employed computers to diagnose problems in the motor, wheel balance, and speedometer. Computers were also held in great demand by the Yearbooks staff members. For the first year ever the staff used a program called Scripsit. Fortunately the program made it feasible for members to justify copy length, excluding the HOME OF THE COLTS. Just like an old friend this welcoming sight greets students 180 mornings out of the year. Housing 730 students, the Home of the Colts is in its 22nd year. THE PUNKS ARE PEPPED. Dressing up as punk rockers on spirit day provides a spirit boost to help the Colts achieve a victory over the Comets. The winners of the punk rockers costume contest were Amy Sue Eudy and Frankie Clay. 2fOpening
