The girls showed much enthusiasm at giving their best in each game. Women invade farming as Sharon Moyer interviews the new Agricultural Business class taught by Mr. McCoy. Sitting at his usual library table is Mr. Leonard, our new senior English teacher. He avidly reads the Redskin news, The set was a modern brick building, about five years old, located on the Woodrow Wilson Rehabilitation Post, approximately half-way between the cities of Staunton and Waynesboro, Virginia. The time was 1974-1975. As The World Turned, Wilson turned on to a new year of the same series with several premiere appearances. Wilson turned over a different leaf to Another World of Girls ' Basketball. The Drill Team proved to be a show which no one wanted to miss. Like Joker ' s Wild, all students ran wild, including seniors, trying to figure out the updated schedule — seven periods instead of six periods. Mr. Gray, the new Athletic Driector, was Our Favorite Martian. Wilson really hit the Jackpot whfen we contracted Mr. Walton, Mr. Avoli, Mr. Grooms, Mr. Fitzgerald, and Mr. Snyder as the new coaches. The students were never in Jeop¬ ardy with the new teachers leading them onward every Split Second. The Amazing Chan was represented by the new Boy Cheerleaders, who were Making A Wish that the Girls ' Basketball team would win. The WMHS Tennis Classic featured girls and boys playing tennis together. This year started out as a year filled with suspense and excitement. 2 Theme cfcl, XX- u -)- ' -mL p ' ■ ' oir � -SZJ?. V C A.

Before the school year begins, the Drill Team works steadily to make each performance a success. In all of our shows about Wilson Memorial High School, there was one aspect that stood out through everything we did. Throughout every show you could feel a close¬ ness that was there and no one could take it away. We were a family. Wilson had become parents with over a thousand children. We loved each other and weren ' t afraid to show it. Of course there were times when we disagreed on dif¬ ferent things, but somehow, someway, we always remem¬ bered to keep Wilson proud of us. When we look back over the years, we can always say we played an important role at WMHS. A new scene, boys and girls playing tennis together proves to be more competitive for both sexes. 4 Theme Theme 5 6 Student Life Untamed World How did you feel after a hard day ' s work at Wilson Memorial High School? I bet you couldn ' t wait for all that excitement out there in that Untamed World. Some stu¬ dents probably rushed home and raided the refrigerator. Others may have stayed after school or gone to their jobs. Annette Roadcap, Greg Thompson, Annette Gochenour, Larry Mays, Terri Wheeler, and Yolanda Lisky seem to be in a hurry. Student Life 7 Linda Sorrells, Kelli Coffey, and Sally Veney can ' t hardly wait to get on their new bus. Some people shove and push while trying to get in line. Not For Women Only Most of our Sons and Daughters of Wilson Memorial High School arrived by buses. They casually boarded and unboarded buses every won¬ derful school day. Lots of our students left their buses and went straight to the smoking room. It was located at the back of our school. Some of our Sons and Daughters enjoyed this activity a great deal. The Sons and Daughters casually opened and closed hundreds of lockers everyday. Some people slammed lockers shut, and others just took their good old time! Lockers provided a place for the precious books each student carried every day. It was also a place to get rid of those things at the end of a day. When our afternoon activities were finished many kids waited for a late bus. When it arrived, people couldn ' t wait until they got home. Most all of our Sons and Daughters enjoyed the use of lockers, buses, and the smoking room during the year. Scott Shaw walks hurriedly away from the bus, while Teresa Johnson looks away. 8 Student Life Bobbie Huggard and Myra Bibb are getting off their usual bus 77. Every day this bus travels the same route and picks up the same kids. Jeff Salmon searches his locker for his script for the day. But the question is, where did he put it? Debbie Brown, Mike Crane, Gary Bryant, and Patty Thompson socialize at the Student Smoking Area behind the school. Student Life 9 Happy Days I ' ' .kt The television family of Wilson Memo¬ rial High School went all out during the Homecoming Week. The girls of our family wore pony tails, white bobbie socks, and long skirts to set off our Happy Days. Our famous cheerleaders put on a great 50 ' s act for our family. The fans really went wild. On Clash Day everybody dressed really way out. We had our family wearing stripes, polk-a-dots, and every color under the sun. What really set off our week were the crazy socks. They came in all shades of colors. The stars wore the crazy looking things with rolled up blue jeans. Our whole family of stars got together and really showed their spirit for our team. We yelled and clapped for our great team ' s victory, during the Happy Days of Homecoming Week. Maria Wade, Terry Hoffman, Mildred Washington, and The Bonfire really helps to give people spirit and brings out our cheerleaders. Bennie Washington are showing their spirit for our team ' s win. 10 Student Life Guess who these cra zy looking legs belong to? Almost everybody wears white socks and sneakers. Don ' t you know that? ' Sandra Allen really seems to know the right way to dress on Clash Day. • • ■; ►V- r • . r: 1 -1 ’ Scott Crickenberger, Penny Bashlor, and Sue Delpng like the 50 ' s look. Student Life 11 When the 3 o ' clock bell rings the rush begins. Students fly out the door to their bus and freedom at last. Kevin Moomau finds nothing is more irritating than a stubborn locker that refuses to open when you need it. One ordinary school morning darkness fell suddenly. Fortunately everyone remained calm and the lights returned soon. 12 Emergency EMERGENCY! Wilson ' s versions of Emergency lacked sirens and paramedics, but included the blast of fire drill horns and the ring of bells. Stampeding feet, a hushed quiet that built into laughter, and slamming doors always followed these signals. Minor emergencies happened daily. The lock¬ ers that stuck, the books that dropped, the desks that fell over, and the quick trips to the restroom were a few. However, the 3:00 bell brought a surge of adrenalin into the bodies of all, as they formed a human wave to get to their buses. Fire dirlls frequented the Emergency series. The most exciting one, which lasted for 45 minutes, occurred at the beginning of the year. As usual, the cast performed with ease and calm. One Tuesday morning show depicted the story of a thousand students trapped by a total blackout. A transformer breakdown put the entire post in darkness for 20 minutes. Flash¬ lights were found, but few had batteries. The situation was alleviated in those rooms with windows, but for the inner rooms things looked pretty dim. Another emergency show entitled Help CROP Stop Hunger, aired in October. Wilson stars helped by making a sponsored walk of 6 miles from Fishersville to Waynesboro, in the snow. r 9 ■ ■ 3 J It ' s a cold, snowy, Saturday morning in October. While many folks stay home in a warm bed, Cindy Baldwin, Melinda Lucas, and June East walk for CROP to help raise money to stop hunger. Thank goodness it wasn ' t real! Sue Delong and Heidi Landau seem to have their own opinions about fire drills. Emergency 13 The Homecoming The script for the Homecoming 74 Show zoomed into action with a burst of spirit from the student body. After the Bonfire Thursday night you could find many students being entertained by the Junior and Senior girls as they battled it Out in the powderpuff game. The winning touchdown, made by Senior Roxie Taylor, put the final score at 6-0. Students gathered at the field again Friday night backing up those mighty Green Hornets as they faced Natural Bridge. During halftime, entertainment in¬ cluded performances by the band, drill team, and majorettes. The Homecoming court was presented, and the announcement everyone had been waiting for was made at last. The 1974 Homecoming King and Queen were Rusty Baber and Elizabeth Boggs. The night was finally completed by another Hornet vic¬ tory of 35-0. Saturday night excitement mounted as time for the Carnival drew near. The main attraction was a group called Barnstorm. While many couples danced, others could be found talking or having refreshments. When the night ended, students returned home to reflect back on a script which proved to be an award winning success. Co-starring in the 74-75 Homecoming court are, FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: Tim Rowzie and Denise Rankin — 9th grade. Jay VanArsdale and Vickie Coyner — 10th grade, Debbie Rexrode and Danny Wheeler — Seniors, Ann Wright and Scott Crickenberger — 11th grade, and Susan Carico and Scott Havener — Rth grade.

Bending over the fountain, Gary Via sips cool refreshing water after a pizza lunch. 16 Lunch Break New Zoo Revue As time for the bell to ring draws closer, stu¬ dents get restless and a few muffled growls from hungry stomachs can be heard. Thank goodness for lunch time, that part of the day which always seems to break the monotony of classes. When the bell finally does ring, doors are flung open and students race to dump their books, and take ad¬ vantage of their free time. Most can be found heading for the cafeteria to get in line for a hot lunch. Trays come out loaded with pizza, ham¬ burgers, hot dogs, milk and other good things. After they ' ve eaten some head out for the smoking room to socialize and have a cigarette. Others head for the Media Center to talk with friends, study, or listen to music with the headphones. At last, in what seems all too short a time, the bell rings again and students return to classes. Day dreaming in the Media Center is a favorite pastime of Melissa, Tina, and Pam. Tammi Meadows entertains at the Eighth Grade lunch table. Phyllis Coker sips Shenandoah ' s Pride in the fun filled cafeteria. •W Lunch Time 17 ' Hee Haw The Wayside The¬ atre came to our school and performed several Folk Tales.

The Christmas Assembly proved to be a big suc¬ cess with every¬ one. We had music by the Choral, Singing Sergeants, and Band. The Drama Class and major¬ ettes also gave us some entertain¬ ment. We even had a surprise with a fat Santa Claus. William Rudd, Sam Ramsey, and Marion Humphrey actors from Miss Lewis ' 7th period Speech and Drama Class are performing a funny skit of The Night Before Christmas, at the last Assembly of 1974 in the auditorium at Wilson Memorial.

Christmas Assembly 19 A Charlie Brown Christmas It was A Charlie Brown Christmas this year at station WMHS. The Christmas special was produced and directed by the Keyettes, Guest stars were Wheatstone Bridge, who pro¬ vided the background music. The Wilson Memorial Student Body dancers performed. The set was decorated with Charlie Brown characters, candy canes, and mistletoe. The Christmas special was the most popular show of the season. Kathy Gorsuch, Richard Moyer, Sharon Fitzgerald, and Sharon Moyer take a break from dancing. Jimmy Shaw seems to be noticing something more interest ing.

Such songs as “The Night Before Christ¬ mas and White Christ¬ mas were enjoyed by all. Our school also had several bulletin boards decorated for Christmas.

The concert is a great success by every¬ one ' s opinion. The Christmas Scene At Wilson Memorial Christmas 23 Now You See It ? Even in today ' s fast, changing world of fash¬ ions, Wilson students managed to keep up with it all. As you walked down the halls at school, you could find many variations in dress. Smart¬ looking cuffed pants with sweaters and blouses were often worn by the girls. The shirt or sweat¬ er with the hood on it was very much in style. While many coats seemed to be of midi-length, the dresses remained short for the most part. Hair styles were neither long or short, but a mixture of both. Nice-looking cuffed pants were also In style for the boys. Shirts with embroi¬ dered or quilted designs on them were very popular. Many shirts even had ivory snaps on them. Flannel shirts were worn by everyone during the winter months. Of course the thing that everyone came back to was the ever-faithful jeans we all love. Relaxing in their jeans are David Johns, Alice Hailey, Anita Braden, Debbie Rosser, Sara Flintom, Tom Jones, and Tim Knebel. Quilted or embroidered shirts, like the one Doug Conyers is wearing, are popular. 24 Fashions 5 S MAY ‘ VIRGINIA 8 1 1 I ■ -af 1 1 1 i 1 1 J .

Pastime Show Born Free Students used their spare time in a great number of ways. Some figured that they could use a little extra money, so many had jobs to go to. Bonanza, McDonalds, service stations and local department stores are just a few of the places that employed Wilson students. Seniors with jobs were often re¬ quired to only go to school half a day. Other students were busily engaged in sports. Af¬ ter school practices with the basketball, football, or track teams took up lots of time. On Friday or Tuesday nights many of the Hornets could be found swarming in the stands supporting their team. After the game lots of students went to the Caravan for something to eat and to socialize. Many students loafed around the house watching TV and listening to music. Of course everyone had their own special thing to do with motorcycles, while others rode their horses. Some enjoyed quiet walks, and others just liked to cruise the town. Boyfriends or girlfriends kept many occupied. No matter how much time they had, students were kept occupied.

Starting time for the show was approximately 7:30 a.m. with the arrival of the secretaries, custodians and admini¬ strators. Featured on the series each day was the ritual flag raising, reporting of the daily atten¬ dance, signing of the absentee passes, and morn¬ ing announcements over the intercom. The pur¬ pose of the Morning News was to officially begin the day, and to inform students of recent and future activities.

The NEWCOMERS included Kriste Hershey, Sharon Fitzgerald, Karen Siron, and Jill Stone who joined Joellen Holsinger, Jean Wiseman, Jan Stone, Cynthia Miller, and Melin¬ da Altizer in bringing spirit and enthusiasm to many Wilson students. Melinda and Jan were chosen as co-captains and Mrs. Marcy Baker directed this crew in a year of success. There were many HAPPY DAYS in the girls ' lives as they participated in cheerleading activities. The squad started the year off right by going to camp at Randolph Macon College in Lynch burg. They walked away with top awards and some new and rare cheers. The fans responded excit¬ edly and screamed to such cheers as Soopa, Soopa and You Bit Off More Than You Can Chew Cause Your Eyes Are Too Big For Your Tummy Too. The Cheerleaders also gave some grand perfor¬ mances at the Football games. Girls ' Basketball games and Boys ' Basketball games. They could also be seen at Cross-Country meets supporting the guys and girls, staying after school, painting posters, decorating the football bus, decorating the field and gym. At times you might have caught them sneaking around putting rare objects in the athletes ' lockers. The girls worked hard and put in many painstaking hours of practice, but they truly accomplished their part of this series at WMHS. A good-luck charm is displayed by the cheerleaders and many fans.

The highly spirited Ninth and Tenth graders came to be “Something Special in the eyes of many fans both during Football and Basketball season. Melinda Lucas and Kathy Gorsuch were chosen co-captains, and Mrs. Phylis Gordon gave this crew much advice as their sponsor. The squad went to Cheerleading Camp during the summer and learned new and original stunts and cheers. When they returned home they worked long hours making sure their arms were straight and their .voices were low. When they appeared in front of a crowd many members of the audience were Bewitched by their performances. Stuntmen, Cheerleaders Focus On Spirit The JV cheerleaders include Sharon Moyer, Kim Snyder, Beth Mawyer, Kathy Gorsuch, Lori Pederson, Debbie Via, Melinda Lucas, Phyllis Coker, Cindy Powell, and Vickie Baber. Caught in the middle of a cheer, Kim and Debbie are frozen in identical poses. All for Wilson stand up and hollar! The JV ' s exhibit spirit and urge the stands to do the same. 34 JV Cheerleaders Ip I net ' I The Eighth Grade Cheerleaders were a big success this year as they entered not only a new school, but also a brand new phase of the athletic program. They were Loree Coffey, Linda McDaniel, Christie Snyder, Nancy Wright, Ann Perkins, Diane Austin, Tammy Rowzie, Jenny Rutherford, Tammi Meadows, and Karin Hershey. Their sponsor was Karen Puffenberger. What will be the next cheer? seems to be the question on the minds of Ann, Tammi, Karen, Christie and Jenny. As many Emmy-winning TV productions have Stunt men, Wilson had five of their own during Girls ' Basketball season. They could be seen out on the floor with the Cheerleaders helping them do stunts. They too deserved an Emmy award for best support¬ ing actors. The stunt men for Girls ' Basketball include Robbie Bashlor, Frank Fleming, Boyce Brannock, Tom Teerlink, and Jimmy Jordan. Exhibiting the use of stunt men, these JV Cheerleaders do their thing with Tom, Boyce, and Robbie. 8th Grade Cheerleaders 35 And Stunt Men It ' s A Family Affair! Varsity Football at Wilson Memorial In 1974 was the Beginning of a New Era It was August 10, 1974. The day was just beginning as was a whole new era of football at Wilson Memorial. Three new coaches stood face to face with fifty boys. Some with talent, a couple that were sort of clumsy, and a few who had never played the game of football. Three men. Bob Walton, Jim Grooms, and John Avoli had the task of transforming those fifty dugs into a winning football team and equally important, into men. Football was a whole new process at Wilson in ' 74 with the switch-over to a new type of exercising, to new drills, and new offensive and defensive sets. More essen¬ tial to the success of the team was the new attitude, the wanting, the longing, and the burning desire to be cham¬ pions. There were no Larry Csonkas, O. J. Simpsons or Carl Ellers in the bunch, but as the season progressed there was something much more important. . . desire. Desire is the quality which by reason of its intensity always characterizes the true champion and even enables men of otherwise modest, natural talent to rise to a peak of achievement.

First, when the Hornets ‘clashed with the Natural Bridge cagers, hav¬ ing the game dedicated to Mitch Frazier, who was ill, the Hornets overwhelmed the Rockets 35-0. Then with the Fort Defiance game dedicated to Coach Grooms and Principal, Ed Clymore, both of whom came to Wilson from Fort, the mighty Hornets defeated the Indians 34-6. And the final game versus Rockbridge was dedicated to Coach Walton and was decisively won 28-0.

Although this 40 yard field goal attempt failed, Hoffman added many valuable extra points. Varsity Football 37 Hornets Fourth In New District In the fall of ' 74 Wilson Memorial was placed in a new district. The Alleghany- Highlands District was made so the county teams could participate with schools of equal enrollment. In the past the Hornets were required to play larger city schools where the sports programs were more so¬ phisticated. The Hornets did, however, compete with two of its past opponents. First with Waynesboro and later with Turn¬ er Ashby. Both games were lost but by a small margin. In district play, the Hornets sported a 5-3 record giving them possession of fourth place. “I ' d rather do it myself. Derek McDaniel scoops this One of the crucial grabs of the game against Fort Defiance, Gary Snyder strains for a loose ball up in a defensive battle at Waynesboro. This Derek McDaniel pass. This was one of many excellent plays by Snyder for the Hornets, was the season opener and was won by Waynesboro 13-0. Catch the ball, then run. Are these Richard Baldwin ' s thoughts? A custom before each game was a special prayer for help and guidance.

Or yet, what runs through the mind of the Cross-Country run¬ ner? No matter what it is, Wilson should be glad that its Cross-Country members have it. It takes a tremendous amount of will power and desire to be a distance runner. It ' s not easy to run ten miles a day in practice. You ' ve got to have that special thing called desire. Coach Arnold Fitzgerald de¬ serves much credit for being out there with the boys no matter what the weather was. It took a lot of practice with wobbly legs and not so stable stomachs. But if you were to ask any athlete—was it worth it—the answer would surely be positive. 1ST ROW; T. Cash, C. Baber, N. Meitus, J. Wertman, D. Thompson, M. Altizer. 2ND ROW: R. Houser, S. Troxell, R.

There were new track coaches, with John Avoli and Steve Geiman. There was an overly large crowd to turn out for the first practice. The team had to run in several snows, high winds, mud, and rain. Intramural sports had a new look this year also. There were co-ed Ten¬ nis and Girls Tackle Football. Inter¬ school competition in Girls ' Volley¬ ball was new this year also. Bruce Coffey clears the bar in the high jump with room to spare. John Runkle crosses the tape in the 300 at State Meet. Buddy Wilkins takes this hurdle in stride.

Ten excited girls came out on the first day of practice and stuck with it to become the Girls ' Varsity Basketball Team. Edith Harlow was the director of this show. The girls gave many grand per¬ formances ending up 6-2 for the season, and were invited to appear in a tournament. Out of 13 teams the Hor¬ nets ended up in a mighty fourth place. Many people agreed Wilson produced a top-rate show when they brought back Girls ' Basket¬ ball. Wild Wild World Kim blocks a shot at the Fort Defiance game, as Susan, Roxie, and Montine come to assist. Caught in the Act Coach Harlow evidently found something to become excited about during a regular season game. 44 Girls ' Basketball Sally shoots the ball up for 2 points which helped defeat Stuarts Draft.

Varsity Basketball Continues New Hornet Era With the addition of a new coach and some much needed height, the Mighty Hornets im¬ proved drastically in the win-loss column. Coach Arnold Fitzgerald brought with him some new offen¬ sive plays to utilize our players tal¬ ent. Although the Hornets were in the new Alleghany-Highlands Dis¬ trict, there was still time to play our all-time rivals from Waynes¬ boro, which was lost in overtime 69-61. The Mighty Hornets finished fifth in the new district with a 6-6 record. Points scored was another giant improvement over last year with the Hornets reaching 98 points at VSD. Scott Troxell, Ricky Reynolds, Bob Johnson, Tony Tyler, Gary Snyder, Steve Boling, Tim Dixon, Doug Conyers, Terry Hoffman, Danny Menefee, Dale Braxton, Gary Quesenbery, Richard Baldwin surround Coach Fitzgerald. Howard Spears flies high to make a long shot. Danny Menefee swishes another 16-foot jumper as a Waynesboro Giant tries in vain to block it. Towering Tim Dixon takes aim for his foul shot, while Danny Menefee and Gary Quesenbery look on. Steve Boling, boxed in by some Giants, goes up for a basket. Team captains, Danny Menefee and Doug Conyers greet our visitors. 46 Varsity Basketball Varsity Basketball 1974-75 .

Varsity Basketball 47 Award Winning JV Basketball JV Basketball at Wilson had to be the biggest, most significant turn around in Hor¬ nets ' sports. While the Junior Varsity cagers won only six games in the three preceding years, they sported a 15-3 overall, and a 10-2 district record. Of course being in the newly founded Alleghany-Highlands District might explain part of the success of the Baby Hor¬ nets, but not necessarily. The Hornets com¬ pletely dominated the court in almost every game, and had victory margins up to sixty points. For the first time in many years the Baby Hornets defeated the Waynesboro Little Giants by a score of 50-47. Coach Bo Bowers and the entire JV Team deserves a great big hand for the tremendous effort and results achieved during their very successful season. The scoreboard is an adequate way to sum up the JV Hornets ' victorious season. Rick McKinny, with eyes fixed on the goal, releases a possible score, as Quesenbery and Randolph anticipate a miss. Derek McDaniel holds the ball high to pop another 2 points as Bobby Randolph looks on.

Eighth Grade Basketball was a big success at Wilson Memorial in the ' 75 season. These fourteen up-rising Hornet athletes had a very successful beginning to think back on. The eighth graders finished regular season play with a 7-3 record giving them second place in the district. They lost only to Fort Defiance and Buffalo Gap during the season. The midget Hornets went to the tournament at Riverheads and captured third place. Four of the starters were elected to All-Tourney teams. These include Teddy Obie who made third team All- Tournament. Scott Heavener, and Tony McCauley were placed on the second team and George Benson was selected for the first team All-Tournament. Let ' s hope they keep up the good work. 8th Grade Basketball 49 1975 Student Index of WM Guide ' s Famous Stars Acker, Cathy 76,123,132,135,136, 138,144 Acker, Joyce 123,127,132,148 Agnor, Sharon 60,126,128,130,131, 144.147 Ahles, Dean 84,132 Ahles, Terry 76,123,126,135 Aistrop, Joyce 70 Alford, Cecelia 102 Alford, Gregory 76,126 Alford, Terry 94,120,127,132,134,137 Allen, Carl Allen, Debra 60,132 Allen, Donna 84 Allen, Patricia 20,102,140 Allen, Randy 84,120,126,132,137 Allen, Sandra 11,94,127,134 Almarode, David 102,129 Almarode, Harvey 84,148 Almarode, Monte 102 Almond, James 102,148 Almond, Ruby 102 Altizer, Douglas 60,73 Altizer, Melinda 32,33,60,128,130,132,134, 135.139.140.144.145.147 Altizer, Walter 94,134,148 Andrews, George 102,136 Andrews, Melissa 76,126,133,135,145 Arbogast, John Arey, Timmy 84 Ashby, Debbie 102,140,149 Austin, Diane 102,134,35 Baber, Carole 94,123,140 Baber, Charles 14 Baber, Flossie 94 Baber, John 102 Baber, Vickie 84,132,134,137,140,34 Bagby, Stephen 28 Bain, William 65,126 Bakel, Ann 94,123,140 Baker, Steven 84,132 Baldwin, Cindy 2,13,34,43,84,134,140 Baldwin, Richard 62,124,134,140,144, 145,146 Ball, Cheryl 102 Baisley, Alan S. 62 Baisley, Larry W. 62 Banks, Jeffrey Scott 102 Banks, Mark Kevin 84 Barker, David Mitchel Barker, Debbie Gay 134,149 Barker, Lisa Gaye 84 Bashlor, Penny Lee 11,122,145,76,132,136, 138,139 Bartley, Freda Fay 120,84,133,137 Batten, Michael W. 84 Bashlor, Robert A. 3,32,94,35 Beard, Jeff Glenn 84,132,134,140 Beard, Ronnie Lee 84,148 Bebber, Shirley Ann Bell, Arleen Marie 107 Bell, Barbara Ann 94 Bell, Betty Zane 94,139 Bellamy, Elizabeth A. 102,140 Benson, George 102 Benson, Mervin Glenn 127 Benson, Robin E. 84,94,132,134 Berry, Cathi Rae 84,149 Berry, Stephen F. 102 Beverage, Anna Mae 85 Beverage, Betty Kay 62,142 Beverage, Donald S. 94,95,127,132 Beverage, Pennie G. 94 Beverage, Teresa L. 85,140,148,149 Beverly, Teresa E. 85,132,149 Beyeler, Harold D., Jr. 85 Bibb, Myra Elise 9,85,132,136 Bishop, Clifford G. 85 Bishop, Frances Ann 94,139 Bishop, Tamara C. 85,120,132,145 Bistol, Deborah Blackwell, Albert J.

Welcome Sam Ramsey seems to enjoy the new surroundings and Teresa Stephens walks to one of her many new sets with Brenda Dickerhoof. crew! The girls ' locker room brings a smile to Tammy Miller ' s face who wonders why me? Debbie Lowe has a shocked expression for the director, as Tony Tyler relaxes. Paula Inderwish enjoys her lunch break with Cindy Fink, a cast member on set. Darlene Jacobs seems more interested in the set than she does the director. 58 Transfer Students Jon Ramsey goes to lunch after one of his new shows with a new director and cast. Some new cast members get together during a break with some new friends. Doug Hudson smiles at something the director says as Doug Conyers bows. Being a transient community, Wilson re¬ ceived many transfers this year. New students came from as far away as Germany and from as close as Stuarts Draft. The Hornets were proud to adopt these great new stars to their long running series. The new cast members received their new scripts, and working sched¬ ules and plunged right in with interest and enthusiasm. The effect of fresh ideas was soon felt in many classrooms and clubs. The origi¬ nal cast and crew members accepted these new students and ideas with the warmth that open-mindedness brings. When asked about their new school many transfers replied “We like it! Ken Wasik laughs at a joke a fellow cast member tells him during a break.

After a five-year run, the station WMHS show on the Class of 1975 came to a rapid finish. The required government course for seniors made many better consumers of the National News. The realization that the se¬ nior Hornets would soon leave the hive re¬ sulted in an increased interest in the financial state of the nation, and the unemployment rate in Augusta County. But these serious subjects didn ' t hamper their fun-loving spirit. Senior Skip Day, The Class Picnic, The Prom given in their honor, and usual weekend fun still prevailed. After all — You can ' t get a good class down! Steve Bagby Without fear of the cold. Dale Snyder, Irby Crissman, and Alice Hailey frolic in the snow.

At least some aspect of everyone ' s life has been affected — even the people we thought couldn ' t be touched. President Nixon became Mr. Nixon, and Mr. Ford became President Ford. Rockefeller was VP. After that everything came at once. The democrats swept Congress — we became aware of a world food crisis — infla¬ tion - recession - and OIL. I guess that ' s the thing that affects most people. America was riding along in a big air-conditioned car when it ran out of gas. No more ' cruising ' Waynesboro on Friday night. ALL people have to ' tighten their belts ' and everyone had to change a little. I guess we ' ll all change a lot more and and we ' ll never be ' the way we were ' . I just don ' t know what ' s going on anymore. I can ' t believe some of the prices. 60( gallon for regular gas, and sugar is almost 60d pound. It ' s really a lot different.

Seniors 75 Cathy Acker Terry Ahles Greg Alford Melissa Andrews Penny Bashlor Carol Blosser Mike Blosser Brenda Booth Tim Bower Tamara Bradley Have some Good Times . That is what the Juniors tried to do this year, but they worked hard too. During the football season, about a dozen Juniors got up early on Saturday mornings and went to clean up the football field. After Christmas they sold maga¬ zines to raise money for the big dance of the year, the Prom. The Juniors worked all year, making preparations for the Prom. Early in the year they formed a committee to decide which band should entertain for the Prom. They also had to be responsible for the Prom decorations, the refresh¬ ments, and other important details. Miss Cook helped with the arrange¬ ments. Also, thanks from the Juniors goes out to their head sponsor, Mr. Corbin, who helped tremendously.

At the beginning of the year they traveled to Williams¬ burg. There they visited the Gover¬ nor ' s Palace and the old state Capitol building. They toured many craft shops. After eating lunch in Williams¬ burg, they were allowed leisure time to do whatever they wanted to do. Before Christmas they went to see the movie Gone With the Wind. The Juniors also went to see other movies. They showed off their class rings when they arrived in the spring. Then, of course, there was the biggest event of the year, the Prom.

At the beginning of October the ring man came; and the Juniors ordered their rings after studying the samples and changing their minds a half dozen times. The Happy Days are over now as they wait impatiently for their rings to come in. After waiting in suspense for months they finally arrived. 82 Juniors David Thomas Greg Thomas Larry Thompson Melissa Tichenor Bill Tillman Scott Troxell Jean Tossing Mary Tyree Sally Veney Cliff Viel Bennie Washington Mark Wertman Ivan Whitley Buddy Wilkins Ricky Williams David Willis Laura Womble Kathy Wood Larry Wood Juniors 83 Dean Ahles Donna Allen Randy Allen Harvey Almarode Timmy Arey Vicki Baber Steve Baker Cindy Baldwin Mark Banks Lisa Barker Freda Bartley Mike Batten Jeff Beard Ronnie Beard Robin Benson Cathi Berry At the game of Wilson vs. Fort Defiance, Cindy Baldwin laughs at a joke.

Hornet ' s Way This season when they re¬ opened the series Everything Is Coming Up Hornets, the Sophomores were proud to take their places with the cast and crew members to help make the series complete. Along with the old members of the cast, they were faced with new ideas, people, teach¬ ers, coaches, and a newer and bigger dose of school spirit. The cast sponsored a car wash during the parent-teacher con¬ ference to raise money for the Sophomore Class. The stars enjoyed the first couple of weeks in Biology by dissecting pigs.

The actors had to get to know new directors and producers. Most of the Sophomore cast seemed to enjoy being in the tenth grade. When asked they gave a simple nod of the head or said, It ' s okay. The crew mem¬ bers rehearsed dia¬ graming sentences and reading literature. They were into other things besides English, Biology, and Physical Education. They par¬ ticipated in things like Singing Sergeants, Var¬ sity Football, and other such sports and activities. Glenn Painter, Teresa Pangle, Scott Fauber, Sharon Fitzgerald, and Lynn Lowry worked hard to bring Spirit to their class to make it great. They did just that by selling antenna toppers. 86 Sophomores Pat Coeyman Bruce Coffey Teri Coiner Tammy Coleman Cindy Collins John Conner Jimmy Cook Kevin Cook Martin Cook Michael Corbin Vickie Coyner Karen Craig Jerry Craig Tom Curtis Cory Dale Charlotte Davis Marilyn Day Robert Deaver Scott Devore Tina Diehl Chris Dillow Curtis Dillow Larry Durrette Mary Eaton Sophomores 87 Scott Fauber Randy Fink Danny Fisher Donna Fisher Mary Fisher Clifford Fitzgerald Gary Fitzgerald Harvey Fitzgerald Pam Fitzgerald Pat Fitzgerald Sharon Fitzgerald Beth Fix Lenny Fralin Rodney Gray Samuel Gill Ray Gladwell Jon Greene Darrell Hereford Rhonda Harper Stacey Harper Jon Hartman Scotty Hatcher Harvey Heavener Kathy Hemp 88 Sophomores Lucy Henderson Terry Henderson Kristy Hershey Tony Hiles Doug Hite Tony Hoffman Karen Hoover Ronnie Houser Steve Hydryck Darlene Jacobs Terry Johns Everythings Coming Up Hornets Bill Pfast and Steve Baker dress the skeleton in something decent besides bones- On the season premiere “Every¬ thing ' s Coming Up Hornets, the cast of actors found a new hope, one that would carry them through and down the aisles of graduation to the world that waited.

They responded correctly to such questions as: What is your school ' s favorite color? and What is a Media Center? Questions like How oid is your school? were more difficult. The real test came when it was the school ' s turn to answer. It no longer recognized its own students. The boys had grown taller and the girls prettier. Saturday night no longer meant television; it meant dates. They were now upperclassmien; and the question that they could not an¬ swer, did not exist. But reacquaintance did not take long. They were the same students alright; always talking and laughing. The united cry Nine Say Go once again echoed in the halls. Cheryl Breeden Tracy Breen David Brooks David Brown 94 Freshmen .v t.

They answered all the questions, to the best of their knowledge, to help the new stars win a role in the game! Only the quiz went on for the Freshmen to prove they were worthy of their position on the cast and of their marriage to Wilson. This year was their second year of marriage to Wilson and they learned to love it more each passing day and to appreciate all the “tender loving care Wilson was giving them. The new school spirit taught them to love the school team that much more. The fear was for the safety of the team members and the ratings the series would receive for the season. But no matter what the ratings were, the cast would return to the long run series.

The script called for a young gentleman to choose from three young ladies on the basis of questioning. The prize received by both was a date to the Wilson Memorial Sweetheart Dance. The dance, held in honor of Saint Valentine ' s Day, succeeded in bringing together many young lovers for a night of frolicking. It also provided the Freshmen producers with some extra cash for their class treasury. The Freshmen also produced other commercials to raise money. They attempted to sell a little bit of everything from baked goods to toys. Boyce Brannock, director, could be heard screaming, Buy this or else, as Mrs. Gordon, sponsor, tried to calm him down. Assistant sponsors for the show included Mrs. Baker, Mrs. Clark, Mr. Devano, Mr. Fitzgerald, Mrs. Hanger, Mrs. Holl, Mr. Hartman, Miss Puffenberger, Mrs. Sheffield and Mrs. Rasys.

The last show of the season was entitled Picnic in the Park. Set at the wooded picnic area, south of the football field, a cast of approximately seventy-five students feasted on hot dogs. All in all the series of shows on Freshmen from the Newly Wed Game to Picnic in the Park was a fantastic success. They planned to return with an all new series next season.

They were the new actors that all the upper classmen looked out for, and could not help but rib them to show them what to expect from the series Wilson Power. This lively crew of eighth graders started the year off right by getting the green spirit and winning Henry Hornet. They joined as many clubs as possible and supported the athletic teams with enthusiasm.

They met their new freedoms with the pangs of growing responsibility, and some made trips to the office. Yet grades proved to be better than average for most of them the first six weeks. Standardized testing agonies greeted the eighth graders in October, along with the first cold weather. Sounds of I can ' t wait till Christmas, already resounded in the home¬ rooms.

Mr. Furr portrayed the part of a high school guidance coun¬ selor, who gave advice to eighth graders. Co-starring with Mr. Furr were 243 apprentice students. 106 Eighth Grade Mr. Furr gives Randy Crenshaw some friendly advice. Children The show involved the trying times of adolescents in their first year of high school. Incidents such as computer scheduling, grade checking and personal in¬ terviews gave realism to the show. Humor emitted from the mass confusion scenes of lost rooms, big books, and stuck lockers.

Class elections inspired the second show in No¬ vember, and May brought the grand finale picnic performance by Mr. Kendall. The sketch for the first eighth grade assembly introduced a character from each and every club or activity at Wilson. Cries of “Join Us, and Support Us, blared from the sound system. Elections Assembly raised the roof as the audience cheered for their favorite son. Colorful posters lined the walls, spelling Vote For Me, in every possible way. Last but not least came the best perfor¬ mance of all — the Picnic. The dialogue emphasized such lines as: Hey, we need potato chips! Sooner or later all shows get canceled.

Mrs. Shanks and Mrs. Craft wait on the students as they come and go. Mr. Gray, Mr. Clymore, and Mr. Costa give us a fashion show. 110 Administration This season our producer, Edward Clymore and assistant producer, Al Costa teamed up to produce fantastic shows on station WMHS. Also helping them produce .the shows was Chip Gray who came to us this year from Northern Virginia. Mr. Clymore brought Humanism into the class¬ rooms. He always had an encouraging word for students and teachers alike. Mr. Costa helped Humanize the school by having a new policy about late passes. This policy was that the teachers used their own judgement about the student being late. Chip Gray helped the Humanism by being a good Samaritan to the athletes. If these three ever needed to be found, you could go to Mr. Stump ' s Humanities class sixth period. Another place you could have checked was in the school clinic. The script girls, Mrs. Shanks and Mrs. Craft worked hard organizing the scripts for station WMHS this season. Mr. Costa works hard in the secretary ' s place taking and receiving information. Mr. Gray waits to chat with students as he supervises the Media Center. Administration 111 Search For Tomorrow Students surround Mrs. Glover, our school nurse, as she gives free physical examinations. Filing cards is just one of Mrs. Flora ' s many duties.

Mr. Browning studiously examines test scores for the eighth graders. The daily soap opera of life at Wilson included some very impor¬ tant people in our lives. Their pres¬ ence aided our Search For To¬ morrow. Mrs. Flora starred as the Media Center specialist, who pro¬ vided us with every type of infor¬ mation in her power. Mrs. Glover gave a tremendous performance to keep us healthy, physically and mentally, for the future. In the roles of fortune tellers starred Mrs. Bosserman and Mr. Furr. Mr. Browning made his premiere per¬ formance as a soothsayer. Without these stars the Search For Tomor¬ row would not have been a suc¬ cess. Mr. Furr autographs absentee passes each morning in room 1 . Guidance 113 -y What ' s My Line?

Timmy Wright provides paper work during Study Hall for the Main¬ tenance Staff to clean up. Through the halls of Wilson echoed the names Mitch, Harry, Charlie, and Ronnie. These stars of the maintenance staff were sought after by all their fans to perform their roles. The daytime show ran from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., and the nighttime show ran from 2:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. The stars were aided by their distin¬ guished props — Charlie bent over the old vacuum cleaner, Harry pushed the trash buggy, Ronnie drew the broom, and Mitch carried a step ladder. The stars were satisfied with their work and managed to find spare time to play cards. New to the series this year were four part-time supporting actors. They helped improve the effi¬ ciency of the staff, and offered some relief to the four main actors. The cafeteria staff returned this year for another season of school lunches. The series consisted of favorites such as pizza casserole and submarine sandwiches. The red, green, and pink costumes of the ladies enhanced the happy atmosphere of the cafe¬ teria setting. Interviews with the cast revealed that they love working with children. Their favorite show occurred during the bomb drill when the pizza dough rose all over the kitchen.

The NHS, SAE, and FFA filmed segments of their series at Riverheads, Buf¬ falo Gap, and other area schools around the county by having student exchanges and tournaments. Wilson ' s arious clubs featured their own American Bandstand on the average of six or seven times during the season. Did you know what the world record for eating the most bananas or being the fastest sack racer was? These contests were spon¬ sored by the SCA. They also sponsored a foster child, En¬ rique and helped make Wilson more spirited by having spirit¬ raising contests and days such as Clash Day and the Penny Parade. The language clubs held banquets of various kinds. The new Drill Team, Majorettes, and Band also had their share of activities.

What ' s my line? The direc¬ tors of the Business, Industrial Arts, and Distributive Educa¬ tion Departments made this question easier to answer for those members of their crew. Through these courses they were able to get a general idea of the occupation they may consider having in the future. This season the Business Department stressed to their viewers the basic skills they needed to further their studies beyond high school, and on the job. General business, typ¬ ing, and bookkeeping courses were available. The VVTC was also available for those want¬ ing further training. The Industrial Arts depart¬ ment ' s objective for the 1974-1975 session was to im¬ plement 2 premiere programs. The World of Construction was the 1st year program which was opened to the 8th graders. The World of Manu¬ facturing, the 2nd year pro¬ gram, was open to the 9th graders. But most of all they wanted to give their crew some career guidance. The Distributive Education series included showing their cast how to prepare them¬ selves for full-time employ¬ ment in the field of distri¬ bution. It also served as a background for those who planned to continue advanced training on the college level. ■ ' i ' -lK )‘ ' P ■- . ' ...atSi- ' - Would you like to have learned more in Math, Science and Social Studies before you graduated? This year was your chance. The Science Department had many objectives for its students. They were to have learned the basic scientific princi¬ pals, to establish the fundamental skills, etc. They achieved this through science classes and also through a Science Club. For its activities they took several trips, one of which was to Washington, D.C., sponsored a science fair, and had speakers to give talks on scien¬ tific subjects. The Math Depart¬ ment ' s main objective this year was to study carefully the textbooks presented and to recommend for adoption those books that will benefit the students next year.

This season the English De¬ partment of Wilson Memorial High School wanted their cast to absorb all the different as¬ pects in the courses. Success¬ ful passing of English 8 through 12 was one important requirement necessary for graduation. Advanced Com¬ position, Speech and Drama, and Creative English were available alternate courses. In these classes the actresses and actors could expand their crea¬ tive talents. The Block Pro¬ gram for the crew of 11 th and 12th graders proved again to be another learning experience for its 5th straight year.

They ended the season with a 3 and 1 record. Although many meets were rained out, this didn ' t dampen their spirits. A new thing in Girls ' Track was a J.V. team and they won their only meet also. The boys ' Varsity Track team couldn ' t seem to grasp victory as easily with a 2-9 record. However the spirits continued up and they didn ' t allow defeat to upset them. The J.V. team had a year of improving with strong coaching and several meets. Coach Geiman was busy teaching the fundamen¬ tals and trying to place the right athletes in the right event. The track future at Wilson is very optimistic by the interest being sparked for future runners.

Boys ' Track 183 Hornet Baseball Is Thrown A Curve Although the Hornet Baseball season got off to a soggy start, the weather had little effect on their steadily improving game. The rain was a problem as it caused some lost time in practice, and it wasn ' t un¬ usual to end up playing a game in a steady drizzle of rain. But the weather improved, as did the Hornets overall baseball record and with one make-up game to play, we found ourselves tied for second in the dis¬ trict with Stuarts Draft. Since only the first two teams were allowed to go on to regionals, this was a must game for the continuation of our season. After being called off again due to rain, the game was finally played with Stuarts Draft the winner in a close and well played ball game. So even though the season ended on a sour note, the team could still be proud of their performance. Dale Snyder, crouched tike a snake, awaits what he hopes will be a strike.

Hornets are behind 2-0, but John and Robbie will attempt to shift the score. Jon Quesenbury, backed by a defense that makes less mistakes than an IBM computer, hurls another strike for the Baby Hornets. The J.V. Baseball team was pushing the J.V. Basketball team hard for the winning- est team for the school year. The Baby Hor¬ nets won ten games and only lost one, which was to Fort De¬ fence. This was a fine showing, and Coach Walt Cleavenger and his boys deserve a lot of credit for their fine efforts and accom¬ plishments. 1ST ROW: Tony Greaver, Doug Kershner, Danny Foster, Marshal Childress, Charlie Pence, Johnny Baber, Larry Via. 2ND ROW: Ricky Painter, Dan Shatz, Phil Marks, Kenny Eye, Marty Cook, Jon Quesenbery, Phil Sheets, Rocky Moomaw. 3RD ROW: Dobey Maine, Robbie Cole, Bruce Coffey, Jeff Bradley, Darrell Byers, Coach Walt Cleavenger.

Miss Edith Harlow and Mr. Stuart Mof¬ fett directed this crew. Baldwin sported a 10-0 regular season and won the District Sin¬ gles Title, but was put out of action in Re¬ gional Playoffs. She won and truly deserved the Most Valuable Player Award for her ex¬ cellent showings. The combination team of Perkins and Jordan matched Baldwin ' s per¬ formance at district by walking away with the District Championship.

The program began as the Seniors walked under the arches while the song Photographs and Memories played. Skits reflecting back on the memories of the past five years were performed and the class mirror was presented. Mr. Snyder finally allowed the traditional turning of the rings to be per¬ formed. Seniors left to the sound of When Will I See You Again with a mixture of emotions. Sunday night at 8:00 p.m. the Baccalau¬ reate Service was held. The Reverend Wyman Ramsey delivered the sermon. Thursday night, June 5, was that all im¬ portant time that approximately 162 students had been waiting for for 12 years. Senator Frank Nolen delivered the final address to the Seniors. William Mowry, Gay Leach, and Steve Newton also spoke to the class. Di¬ plomas were handed out and the Seniors were officially graduates of the Class of ' 75.
