Wilson Memorial High School - Hornets Nest Yearbook (Fishersville, VA)

Text from Pages 1 - 208 of the 1978 volume:

i OOP Bs This is the Way the First Wilson Annual Appeared in 1948. In the beginning, we were an aban- doned hospital equipped with 892 stu- dents and 39 teachers. The first graduating class contained 175 stu- dents ready and willing to leave high school and begin a different kind of challenge. Now in the year of 1978 we have had 5,582 graduates from a school that started its growth 30 years ago. Although we don’t know what it was like to be part of a new school 30 years ago, the spirit of our school still runs strong and students are proud to say they attend Wilson Memorial High School.

The effect- : iveness of their teaching and their presence here daily served only to remind us of the | challenging and rewarding future that lay Mr. Jessie D. Ridgeway ® £ Mr. Ridgeway shows dedication to his teaching, by always being around when needed. Jessie Ridgeway graduated from C.H. Friend High School in South Boston. He went on to finish his education at Hampton Sidney College and majored in Chemistry. He, for 35 years, has taught not only chemistry, but also Physics, Biology, Science 8 and Math 8. Mr. Ridgeway became one of our first teachers here at the old Wilson Memorial. When the school moved to bigger and better things, he went with them. When asked if the students of to- day have changed their attitude toward learning as compared with the students of the class of °48, he replied “Yes, they are less eager to learn.” During an interview he was questioned as to whether or not there were any outstanding happenings or ex- periences he could remember. He gave a lit- tle smile and said ‘“‘Nothing you could write about.’ He did state that he thinks, “‘It is rewarding to have taught four of his own children.” Before starting a hard day of work, Mr. Wenger and Mr. Ridgeway get together for a chat on other topics besides school. 2 Dedication before us. The warmth and understanding they showed has touched many of our own attitudes and personalities, therefore, the (1977-1978) yearbook is dedicated to: and Mr. Robert L. Wenger Mr. Wenger, dedicated to his work, helps his students with their subject when needed. Robert Wenger graduated from Wilson Memorial High School in 1948. He attend- ed Bridgewater College to receive his Bachelors degree, and then journeyed to Madison College for his Masters degree. Mr. Wenger is married and has four children. He has been teaching Bookkeep- ing and General Business here for 19 years. He feels that his greatest moments in teaching occurred when a student came back to tell him that his class helped boost his decision in choosing a career. Evidence that Mr. Wenger’s dedication to Wilson still continues lies in the fact that he went to school here, and returned to share his knowledge with us.

S Now it was our time for a raise, not in pay, but in rank! Yep, we were in that great department called high school. In the fall of 1944 we began our freshman year in four different schools; seventy-seven of us at Stuarts Draft, fifty-two at New Hope, thirty-six at Fishersville and ninety-two at Beverley Manor. We struggled through those Freshmen and Sophomore years dodging all the knocks we could and drag- ging along all we couldn’t dodge. One round higher—‘‘Oh boy, we’re Juniors!’ Like other Junior classes we gave our class play and threw a party for the Senior class. Let’s see, before long these seniors would leave and next year we’d be the Seniors. Now we’re getting some place. What did you say? Yes, right here it is on the front page (big stuff) of the paper! Fishersville, Beverley Manor, Stuarts Draft and New Hope high schools will be com- bined into one big consolidated high school at the Woodrow Wilson General Hospital. Good heavens, what will that be like? Maybe I should stop school. Can’t do that cause I’m not old enough, don’t suppose I'd do that anyway—I have to get an educa- tion someplace. September fairly flew around and it was time for that new adventure. Let me see, ENIORS NOW AND THEN that letter I got the day said for Seniors to come on Thursday, September 11th, 1947 so I must hurry and catch the bus. They took us to the old school where everyone was excited as I. We scrambled on the buses and were off for Wilson Memorial High. Look at that sign by the gate “For Sale’’—heavens! you don’t suppose they’d sell us? The bus parked across from a sign which said ‘“‘Officers Club,’’ but the man said, ““come on in’. We did. Someone must have come the wrong day, I don’t see how all of us could be in one class. We surely have a nice looking faculty, maybe this won't be so bad after all. Mr. McChesney told us how the senior sponsors had drawn our names to determine our homeroom and after a roll of each homeroom had been read we were divided according to schools to register. Then came the big part, a tour of the school,—such long halls. I'll have rheumatism in two weeks! For the first week or two each school ganged together, but before October had gone we felt perfect- ly at home and hardly knew what our previous school had been. Today our Senior class numbers one hundred and sixty-seven. All of us are proud to be a member of the first graduating class of Wilson Memorial High. a OO. BP aaa aes EE LSS Thinking back to a time of a little over four years ago, we can all vaguely remem- ber our first day at Wilson. Our biggest worry then was not to get lost in the maze of halls. Almost all of us felt out of place at this ‘‘strange, unfamiliar setting’? and we tried to cling to our close friends, but in- evitably they had to go their separate ways. As the first year wore on, we began to feel comfortable with our new roles at Wilson, and we even had a sense of belonging. However, when we got back from our short summer vacation, we felt threatened by all those ‘immature’ Eighth graders who were running around. Nevertheless, we adjusted to this problem and all the other “complex” problems as Freshmen moved on to our third year of High School. The Sophomore year at Wilson for us was the starting point of our slow tranfor- mation into adulthood. Many of us were receiving our licenses and getting more in- volved in school affairs. We even began to think about our futures once we graduated, but that ‘‘day of freedom’ seemed so darn far away. As Juniors, we began to get a slight taste of the real world and to become more aware of the many problems. Many of us were getting jobs and our parents had loosened their hold on us a little bit. As Pre-Seniors, we had made many new friends during our four years at Wilson, many of whom were Seniors. Finally, we were Seniors. It seemed kind of strange, that first day of our fifth year when the people who we went to school with for four years were gone. We had attained that position which we had desired for eleven years. To many of us, being a Senior fell short of our expectations. We all felt a little insecure about which direction we will go in when we graduate. We also knew that in June we would be on our own in this “strange and unfamiliar world.” Upon graduation, our classmates, people we have been together with all our lives, would inevitably go their own way. We would see very little of each other and when we did visit the school, it just wouldn’t be the same. We all hope that we have left our marks as ‘‘Hornets” and that we can hold our heads high as the 30th graduating class at Wilson Memorial High School.

It was strange how during 5 years you become accustomed to getting up at 7:00 every morning and going to 55 minute classes, breaking for lunch, learning, craming, and hoping that the 3:00 bell would soon ring. Then suddenly you realize that now your way of life is go- ing to change. All of the heartaches and heartbreaks you suffered through, along with your good times, and the love you sometimes found, become just an essence of high school years. Then to just stop and have to walk away from it all, seemed like a part of your life you’d always remember. And it was hard to leave behind. Participants Participants 7 Problems Arise In the beginning, the class of ’78 thought that their last year would slide on by with ease. Much to the Seniors’ surprise many problems arose and decisions were not easy to come by. The largest problem of the year involved what to do about Class Night. The choices varied from having a banquet out- side the school to having a catered banquet at the school, or having the traditional skits and a dance afterwards. For some students the banquet outside the school was enough to keep them con- tent. But some people considered the ban- quet too formal with a lack of student in- volvement. The catered banquet was com- pletely out. The Seniors wanted more freedom than they could obtain from this. Both of these occasions were to be private, but the Seniors wanted to share themselves with others. Many of the students wanted the traditional skits and a dance afterwards. Although the dance would entertain the Seniors only, the skits would be shared with everyone. They didn’t like being told that this idea wouldn’t work because the class before them had little involvement of the students. The class of ’78 felt different from classes before them. They wanted just one last chance to get together, have some fun and try to get to know each other a little better before they left. No matter which they chose, the Senior class had a uniqueness about them and would make anything they tackled work. Joyce A. Acker Sandra L. Allen Ann M. Bakel Betty Z. Bel! Jennifer J.

McCauley Seniors 11 The Seniors started out the year with brand new rules—having to stay in the cafeteria all through lunch, fresh i deas—getting prepared for new ex- periences, and for some there would always be a feeling of regret. They knew about the Government classes and most dreaded it The idea of graduation and starting into a new world with new friends and problems excited most. Each person had some idea of what he or she could be doing, whether it would be college, a job, or travel. But somehow they could not help but look back into years gone by and remember all those carefree days and some that were not so carefree, and then they felt within them- selves an unexplained loss. and didn’t see its purpose. Some, however, saw it as a new experience and a challenge which they met and conquered. ‘ Martha A. McChesney b pA Rachel E. McThenia % James H. McTyier Lisa C. McTyier Sharon E. Meadows Susan K.

There was so much work to be done in so little time, but somehow they were able to pull through. As soon as school began, the Juniors jumped right in working on the Homecom- ing Float. Many students worked before school, during their lunch and after school on the float. Some students managed to wiggle out of class to work on the float also. All the hard work and money spent on the float paid off. The Juniors’ f loat won second place! Responsibilities of planning the J.V. show and raising money for the Juniors- Senior prom were next on the agenda. The biggest project for raising money was the magazine sale. And once again the Juniors pulled through and gave the Seniors and themselves a very nice and pleasant prom. Teresa Johnson, the class president, had quite a bit of responsibility placed on her shoulders. Teresa helped pull the class together and kept the Juniors rolling with ideas and activities. As the year ended, the Juniors still carried big ‘‘Responsibilities” as rising Seniors.

So they searched into the dark reaches of their minds and with the help of Miss Cook, Mrs. Landis, and Mr. Corbin, their class sponsors, they came up with some ideas to make money. So they worked hard trying to make a buck. Sometimes they sold magazines. But other times they just broke even, like when they tried to win fifty dollars first prize in the Homecoming Float Contest and only won the twenty-five dollar second prize. In the end, or possibly the beginning for most, they succeeded in raising enough money for the Senior Prom. So the Junior class who started out with thirty-six dollars, came through and proved they could do the job, when so many didn’t believe it possible. However, they did not ride off into the sunset just yet for they had one more year of finance.

Juniors 17 RING TIME Towards the end of Spetember, everywhere students looked they saw Juniors looking at pamphlets trying to figure out what type of ring they would or- der. After a few days of thinking things over, most of the Juniors thought they knew exactly what they wanted. However, when the man from Josten’s arrived, many minds changed. After eyeing over the displays, which certainly looked different than they did on paper, the Juniors made their final decision and paid their down payment. After a couple months of anticipation, the man from Josten’s arrived again. Final payments were made and in the beginning of December the Juniors received their rings. To some of the students their ring was just another ring of no importance. But to the majority of the class, their ring sym- bolized the warmth of a new beginning.

In this group, thermometers were made and sold for $3.00. A member of the manage- ment team, Pam Shifflett was asked what J.A. was like. She said, “‘I really like myjob as Sales and Advertisement Manager and especially enjoyed arranging a live demonstration on Channel 8 Cable T.V. J.A. gave all the Juniors a chance to meet new friends, accept the challenge of leadership, and practical experience in management and finance. J.A. must have been very much enjoyed by the Juniors for many are planning to join the J.A.’s again next year.

The Class of 80 changed the rules. Donna Alford They never slowed down for anything. They Dorinda Allen were already looking ahead to the future. Emma Altizer The Sophomores sponsored a Bake Sale towards the end of October and raised $18.25. Although they didn’t raise very much they already had plans to spend it. They looked ahead to sponsor the annual Sweetheart Dance in February. Tina Andrews Last year because of the energy crisis the Todd Ashby dance could not be held. Hopefully the win- John Audia ter of 78 would not be quite as severe. The Sophomores had spunk. They were more determined now than ever. They weren’t go- ing to graduate without sponsoring a Sweetheart Dance.

Mrs. Gordon, the typing instructor, commented that she thought the Sophomore year was a good time to learn the skill. Typing I provided many students with the ability to type their own research papers their Junior and Senior years. Other students prepared themselves for future typ- ing assignments in higher education, or prepared themselves for employment in the world of business.

They will, more than likely, always remember the six things you do to prepare to pull out and go for a spin. Without a doubt, they will remember the exciting ride their partner gave them—taking a curve too sharply and almost hitting a ‘Mack truck”’ head on. Some will remember how nervous they were with Mr. Bowers or Mr. Showker sitting beside them calmly explaining to let go of the wheel when they grab it so you will not destroy their new cars or the people in- side. However, most will remember passing Behind the Wheel Training and the joys of having their license, partying, midnight drives, and a little fast driving, all necessary naturally. ‘‘A friendly warning to you who drive, take care, some rookie drivers are on the loose.”’ Sophomores 27 ABOVE AVERAGE What do you know? Sophomores have brains! On top of everything else the Sophomores were involved in, they found time to sit down and really crack a book. Even the teachers took notice as to how above average their grades were. Mr. Bryan’s statement about the Sophomores in their Biology class summed it up. “The Sophomore class is the best, personality and intelligence wise, that I have seen in the past few years.” pt Fae ey FER ay Ny em 2 SLD 4 ey ae at a Yon Jerry Shatz waits patiently on his annual as Mark Philyaw Pamela Roach Billy Roadcap Frances Roadcap _—_ Cindy Robertson LE eT EC TA a A I A ll, recaptures the feeling of the past year.

Many students felt it was un- fair because they had to take the test in or- der to graduate. Some students felt it unfair because the test would start with the class of 1981. Another comment was if we have the re- quired credits to graduate, then we shouldn’t have to take the test!

One of these subjects, The World Of Manufacturing, entertained close to seventy-five Freshmen as a prerequisite for all other Industrial Arts classes. Taught by Mr. Devono and Mr. Scott, the students explored areas such as the economy, labor unions, management and design. Design ex- cited the students the most. They designed and manufactured wooden pump lamps, miniature (but workable) race cars, and real, live rockets. Tommy Smith skillfully wires this wooden pump into an attractive lamp.

You could if you went to a football game during the 77 season. You might have even wondered why they were playing. The answer could have been as simple as one, two, three. The first, and probably the most obvious would be their talent. The thing about their talent was that they developed it quickly and kept developing it. The second reason a Freshman might have played in a varsity sport would be his willingness. Our 34 Freshmen Freshmen had the will and desire to put up with many hard hours of practice to prepare for the big contest when they would prove their readiness. The third reason may not have been seen easily, but it existed; they were needed. Knowing they were needed placed a good deal of pressure on them, but they came through because of their strong character and sense of responsibility. To sum it up your could have said they played because they knew they could reach for the stars and hold them for an instant.

They had a title of their own and were TGRR Tat hone recognized by many as an “easy going class.” The Freshman class didn’t bug the upper class- men and stuck with their own group. As the year came to an end, the closeness the Freshmen shared showed signs of lasting, lasting to make them a better group for their upcoming years.

In the Beginning of your high school years, the biggest step was that first year. You had no clear-cut title; you were only called Eighth Graders, but you managed to pull through with a good reputation for spirit. As Eighth Graders, you made new friends and you left part of your past behind. You forgot the milk breaks, and used your dimes to play the juke box instead. The first couple of weeks were the worst: learning to get into the swing of things, try- ing to find your right classes and right teachers.

While the rest of the classes yelled along with the cheerleaders, the 8th Graders sat bewildered. Aj Being the spirited little people that they = = were, the 8th Graders caught on very quickly. It took them only a few more pep rallies and they were competition for everyone. When the 8th Graders came to the pep rally, they brought enough students to fill a complete section of the stands. Af- ter Homecoming, the 8th Graders received the spirit stick more than any other class. Anyone arriving at the pep rally late could hear those well-known words, “‘8 say go, 8 say fight.”’..! President of the class, Allison Jones, displays with pride the spirit stick won by the Eighth Grade. 40 Eighth Grade Kim Shifflett, Shari Fisher, Sarah Marion, and Diane Hamilton take a break after a hard hour of displaying spirit in English class.

When a person thinks another person is small, in com- parison to themselves, that person will probably think small people able to accom- plish little or be insignificant. This type of person would have been over come and taken back by the pride, willingne ss, and the large part our Eighth Graders played. The same person might have felt that he himself might be slightly insignificant in the eyes of someone whom he thought to be his lesser because of size. But this person would find that this smaller human being was larger and more forgiving than some bigger humans, and so would over look this bias. A person might be surprised to find the enormous amount of spunk and spirit these small people possessed in the different world in which they were cast. The Eighth Graders will always be remembered as the small ones, but the real fighters, who could bounce off the belt buckles and keep on moving.

First of all, there was Mrs. Clark standing over the stairway, telling the stu- dents when they were allowed to leave the cafeteria. When Mrs. Clark was asked about how she felt about this extra duty, her statement was, “Nobody likes an extra duty, especially this one, for students refer to you as the “‘villian.”” But on the other hand, I believe it has been a good solution as far as the Media Center and students roaming the halls during lunch.” Second of all, there was Mr. Avoli who had duty in the smoking room. He was very optimistic about his extra duty. When asked how he felt, ‘I love it!”’ he exclaimed, “it’s great!. It gives me a chance to meet alot of the students, and I feel that some of us have had close relationships as friends. It also gives me a chance to enjoy a smoke!” Jesse Ridgeway — Chemistry, Science 8 Wesley Scott — Wood I, II, World of MFG Eunice Shanks — School Secretary Carol Shriver — Special Education Gerald Stump — Sociology, Humanities, American Studies II, World Culture II David Snyder — Math 12, Alg Trig.

The squad con- sisted of only 6 girls instead of the usual 8 and | alternate. Although the size of the squad limited the stunts they performed, be- ing a small group the girls became very close and got to know each other very well. From May of last year, when practice star- ted, until the end of February when Basket- ball season ended, the girls shared many ex- periences together and learned that togetherness played an important role throughout the year. With 4 new faces on the squad, the girls attended camp over the summer, under the leadership of Captain Kim Snider and Co- captain Christy Snyder. After camp, the girls worked hard and sold enough boxes of cards to buy themselves new Basketball uni- forms. The cheerleaders had a yearly job and deserved a lot of credit for keeping a smile on their face through both the vic- tories and defeats. = i The Varsity Cheerleaders are Tammy Rowzie, Kim Snider, Penni Pfost, Tammi Meadows, Christy Snyder, and Jane Dahmer. 52 Varsity Cheerleaders authority.

Varsity Cheerleaders 53 The Eighth Grade Cheerleaders got into the athletic role for their first time. They, too, had a lot of work to do. Many afternoons in January were spent practic- ing after school. The girls learned what it took to be a cheerleader and worked hard at living up to their expectations. The squad gave 100% in everything they at- tempted. The squad consisted of Kim Dill, Patti Pfost, Lorna Siron, Connie McGrath, Molly Harris, Shari Fisher and Peggy Bryant. a Mrs. Baker, 8th Grade Cheerleading sponsor, gives her support to the team from the stands with the help of her daughter, Jamie, and Mrs. Clark.

The “‘force” behind the J.V. football team is: Robin Linton, Paula Bowie, Laura Burke, Cindy Harris, Annetta Clark, and Kim Lunn. A silent wish for her team never hurts and often helps. Kim Lunn wishes earnestly. The J.V. Cheerleaders had a lot to learn. When tryouts were held, a squad of 6 was chosen. None of the girls had ever been a J.V. Cheerleader before. An- netta Clark was chosen captain and Kim Lunn co-captain. These girls learned the responsibility of being leaders. The squad attended camp along with the Varsity squad. They learned the basic fundamentals of cheerleading and also learned that if they worked together nothing would stand in their way. The J.V.’s put in many hard days of work learning cheers, practicing stunts and putting them both together. The year proved to be one in which the girls faced and accomplished many new challenges.

Our Cross- Country Team may be the simple answer, but there is nothing simple about Cross- Country.

He set lead and still fresh for the remaining 2 miles. his own goals and each had his own way of finding the little extra to continue on when he felt tired. So their determination and will “power paid off when they achieved their own goal. Coach Fitzgerald felt that ‘“‘the Cross- Country Team was in the best shape of any athlete in school.’’ One of. Coach Fitzgerald’s runners was Mark Johns, who was a Senior. He placed 11th in regional and 8th in state. The Juniors on the team were Carl Wertman, Andy Crane, Tom Wolanskie and Mark Stanley. The Sophomores were Jim Templeman, Mark Pulmer and Mark Philyaw. The Freshmen were Danny Marshall and Donnie Thomas. Since everybody except Mark Johns will be returning next year, Coach Fitzgerald felt he would have a strong team. Coach Fitzgerald would also like to see his team expanded. 57 HORNETS’ HAVE Female football managers aid the Hornets for the first time.

The Girl’s Varsity Basketball team had a slight disadvantage under the other district teams, their heighth. Although the girls were basically a short team, they were very quick on their feet and certainly measured “up” to the other teams. However, the girls DID have a few advantages such as their pride and determination. During the district season, our girls were defeated by Bath County twice. The girls weren't about to give up. When tourna- ments finally came along, our girls were ready. With great pride and determination, the girls defeated Bath County 46-28. When the Chargers left they knew exactly who they’d surrendered to, a team whose pride can’t be measured.

During the cold and snowy days of win- ter, the indoor track team practiced in its meets. Although the snow caused the can- cellation of most of their meets, the team members continued to practice, sometimes on their own in the snow. As a team their efforts paid off when they edged out Fort Defiance at the state meet. On an individual basis, six new school records were set. In the 60 yard dash, Sterlin Blackwell and Danny Foster set the record time at 6.7 seconds. Danny Foster also had a new record in the 300 yard with a time of 36.7 seconds. Mark Johns set two records in the mile with a time of 4:47.8 seconds, and the two mile with a time of 10:30.8 seconds. The 880 relay team made up of D. Foster, K. Cash, F. Via, and S.

Over all, the indoor track team was relatively successful. 73 The Varsity Baseball Team had an outstanding year. The team finished at 10-10 overall and 8-4 in District play. The team lacked experience and with most of the team coming back next year hopes are high for the coming year. Charlie Pence had an excellent year at the plate with a .338 batting average.

Girls’ Track 81 FLYING THROUGH THE AIR The Golf Team was relatively small and inexperienced this year. The season record was 0-6. There was one outstanding player, Kevin Craig. He placed second in the Dis- trict, went on to Regionals, and all the way to State. The Girls’ Tennis Team consisted of seven players: Debbie Jones, Rachel Flin- tom, Susan Brown, Babs Diehl, Ann Holi- day, Lisa Makepeace, and Jackie Johns. They boasted a season record of 5-5. This year was a rebuilding year for the tennis team because the majority of players were new. Boys’ Tennis was a new sport to the Hor- nets, but even so, the season proved to be good. The team consisted of 8 players. They held a season record of 2-6. Top right: After an exhausting match, Debbie Jones quenches her thirst with water.

Mr, Costa finds time from his hectic schedule to pie help distribute lunch to students. _ Being involved in clubs and various 2 - acitivites that were offered meant not only participating in school, but also meant hav- _ing an opportunity to visit places and things you normally wouldn’t do. For instance the Gifted and Talented visited New York while the French and Spanish clubs went skiing. The Keyette club sponsored the Christmas Dance, while the Sophomore class gave the Sweetheart Dance, and the Junior class gave its traditional Junior- Senior Prom. Even though involvement played an important role in all the clubs and activities, learning was mixed in with enjoy- ment. 84 Clubs and Activities Divider Peggy Bryant, Molly Harris and Lorain Siron practice their cheer before the 8th grade game.

Audience members went wild with enthusiasm at the appearance of Santa Claus McCoy with his free candy at the Christmas assembly. The S.C.A., Student Cooperative Association, once again sponsored many activities which kept the student body going. At the beginning of school they sponsored perhaps the biggest and best Homecoming week the school had ever experienced. They also put together the annual Christmas assembly which turned out to be a big hit among the students. Some of the S.C.A.’s yearly duties included a radio show on WTON where the public was informed of various activities held at our school; they again sponsored Enri- que; kept up the two bulletin boards outside the office, and ran the school store which continued to be successful. Towards the end of school, they held an elections assembly and also spon- sored the S.C.A. awards banquet. Without our S.C.A., school life would certainly be dull. Adding new enthusiasm to their SCA, Melinda Niday and Penny Orr serve refreshments at the dance. SCA 87 HOMECOMING 88 Homecoming week proved really wild during the week of October 3rd through the 7th. Special traditional events brought the students into cheerful spirits. To start it off, the poster contest was held between classes. The Sophomores made headway with the Juniors following close behind. The big bonfire brought all students together and just for a minute all were com- bined as one great spirit. Friday, the final day of the sale of victory links, was described as all spirit. The Seniors and Sophomores ran a close race, until the Juniors stepped in and gave money to the Seniors. Then on Friday night, the big game was fought against Fort Defiance. A fantastic halftime show entertained the crowd. The show included the judging of the floats with Seniors taking Ist place, Juniors 2nd place and Sophomores 3rd place, and a very special float which carried members of the class of 1948. Also the Band, Drill Team and Majorettes gave a fantastic show. But this wasn’t all! The Homecoming Court was also presented during halftime and the King and Queen were crowned. King — Mark Johns Queen — Denise Rankin 12th grade representatives — Susan Brown, Kim Bruce, Tim Rowzie and Danny Foster. llth grade representatives — Tammi Meadows and Steve Berry 10th grade representatives — Penni Pfost and David Cook 9th grade representatives — Kim Ruther- ford and Jeff Coffey 8th grade representatives — Patti Pfost and Scott Via THE SPIRIT RAGES HIGH FOR Debbie Jones and two other sophomores show their spirit by getting involved and staying after school to make their float. The Sophomores won 3rd place in the float contest. Roger Case, Mike Fultz, Cindy Fink and Rhonda Boling put the final touches on the Senior float which won Ist place in the float contest. Denise Rankin gleams proudly as she is crowned the Homecoming Queen by principal Al Costa. Sharing in the happiness is King Mark Johns. These 9th grade students help cheer our football team on to victory at the Homecoming Bonfire.

Pam Baber prepares a sweet pastry for the faculty Valentine’s Tea. Cheese sticks, hand made by Mrs. Layman and Janessa Marion, are a big hit at the faculty tea. Mrs. Layman demonstrates how to finish a corner to Sue Paxton, Kelly Moyer, Erika Belch, Libby Carter and Linda Veney. The FHA participated in many activities. They sponsored the annual Sadie Hawkins Dance. The theme was ‘“‘Southern Nights” and students danced to the music of Staxx. Under the leadership of Miss Dutton, Mrs. Layman and president Shirley Meyers, the FHA kept very busy. Some of their ac- tivities included a Valentine’s Tea party for the faculty, a Christmas party at V.S.D., the fashion show, serving at the FFA ban- quet and going to the yearly FFA-FHA pic- nic. 90 FHA The intricacies of threading a bobbin capture the interest of Cindy Evans, Ann Diane Coffey pins a pattern on her fabric in Home Strikler and Pam Beverly.

They had many projects which benefited both the school and com- munity. Some of the projects included the annual citrus fruit sales, the FFA Banquet, and the FFA- FHA picnic. The students also competed in such events as Public Speaking, Co-Op Contest, and judging teams such as Poultry, Dairy and Forestry. Mr. Moffett directs Mike Fultz on how to solder a pipe together.

Mr. Leonard explains to his senior English class what meaning the three apparitions have in the play ‘“‘MacBeth”’. 94 LANGUAGES Mrs. Ultee, Mrs. Sheffield and Mrs. Kiser were once again in charge of the foreign language department. Not only was the language taught, but students also lear- ned about the different habits, traditions and customs of the different countries. The foreign classes took time out now and then and prepared a meal from the countries they studied. This made classes more en- joyable and worthwhile. Mrs. White looks up in exasperation after grading her English classes’ tests. Breaking a school rule, seniors Steve Lenker, Wayne Sheffield, Mark Conlon, Susan Brown, Daryl Byers, and Terry Alford party it up in English class. 95 Une English classes still outnumbered the foreign language classes proving our native language to be the most popular. In many of the classes, books were read and then stu- dents were given a chance to see a movie or a television program about the books. Among the shows seen were JULIUS CAESAR, THE RED BADGE OF COURAGE, THE SGAREEBIVEEBLER and Charly from FLOWERS FOR ALGERNON. This was not the only method of learning English. Many students enjoyed working in workbooks such as ENGLISH THE EASY WAY, or supplementary reading materials such as READ and SCOPE magazines. Other interesting student projects were geneology research and family scrapbooks. Of course, the almighty research paper was still required in many classes.

From deadline to deadline, from copy to copy and from lay- out to lay-out, everyone had their nose to the grind gathering information which was needed. During all this time, Mrs. Vass was yelling ‘“‘Where’s this, Where’s that!” But on the other hand, Mrs. Vass was just a kit- ten at heart: The Annual Staff may have put a lot of work into the makings of the yearbook, but throughout it all every mem- ber of the staff enjoyed doing so and will always carry special memories of the An- nual Room!

The Classes involved learning the concepts, skills, and practices necessary for a place in the business world. Those who wanted further training went on to the Valley Vocational Technical Center for two years. Some of the courses, offered at the Tech. school were Carpentry, Secretarial and Clerical, Auto Mechanics and Auto Body Repair, Ornamental Horticulture, Food Service, LPN, Cosmetology, Data Process- ing, Metal Fabrication and Plumbing, and Heating and Air Conditioning. 102 DECA—Business Bookkeeping. class while attending Valley Vocational Technical Center. “What else are they going to put in here to cause trouble!” is the expression on Mervin Benson’s face while working on a car in Auto Mechanics at Valley Vocational Technical Center.

This club, under the guidance of Mr. Hairfield is com- posed of students who feel that they might like to become professional educators. Cheering up teachers on work days is just one of the nice things they do. Members practice meeting the public by serving as ushers and errand runners at Parent- Teacher Conference Days. They observe different teaching techniques by par- ticipating in student exchanges with other area high schools. Some members of SAE took a field trip to Mary Baldwin College Science Day in February. There they enjoyed programs such as ‘““Chemical Magic,” ““What Goes on in a S tudent Rat Lab,” and “The Great Race.” In the airplane race, David Cook won first place.

The people in SODA went to the nearby elementary schools once a month to talk to the kids on various sub- jects and do “‘energizers” which get the kids active and interested. Some things the SODA students did were to discuss at- titudes, values, or most anything their classes wanted to talk about, play games, and have parties. The group had a meeting each month to come up with new ideas for the members. SODA 107 FIGURES AND FORMULAS Mrs. Baker answers a last minute question as she hands out a test. Algebra Trig seems to amuse Chris Brown and Mary Shields. Math and Science seem to be the most dreaded courses to take for many students. However without these 2 courses they wouldn’t know many common sense things, such as: when making fudge if you have not cleaned the pan into which you were pour- ing fudge, and you drop a crystal of sugar in it the whole recipe will turn to sugar. By knowing their math, they can compare price to amount in the grocery store and figure how much Latex it will take to paint a room. Therefore, even though Math and Science are dreaded classes, they are probably the most beneficial. 108 Math and Science Departments Concentration seems to be the key for Mike Palmer in Miss Armentrout’s Geometry class.

The club members raised money by operating the concession stand at home basketball games, selling cokes, candy, and popcorn. The club members also helped the Sportsman’s Club with various fund raising activities. The members sold tickets to the Donkey basketball game, and some even rode the donkeys.

According to Mrs. Via, the most active members were Holly Jor- don, Cindy Conner, and Marsha Alford. One of the club’s activities was holding a Mock Election for Governor of the state of Virginia, with John Dalton the winner. Another task they took on was raising money and taking up clothes to be donated to the Bosserman family, whose house bur- ned down in December. They also spon- sored a banquet in March.

Members of the Debate team: Kathleen Harris, David Shumate, Jay Mctyier, Tom Wolanski, Joe Bakel. Many students do not really understand what the Debate Team is all about. A year in advance an issue must be decided on in which to debate. The issue was the same for all schools in the United States. The 1977- 78 resolution was, ‘‘That the Federal government should guarantee comprehen- . sive medical care for all citizens in the EEG The two main types of debate are the 4- man (which is a team of 4 people, 2 affir- mative and 2 negative), and the Switchside (which is 2 people prepared to debate both for and against the resolution.) Each debate is judged in 6 areas: delivery, organization, evidence, analysis, reasoning, and refuta- tion. The Debate Team spent many hard hours preparing for a debate. Each debater must be skilled in research techniques, extem- poraneous speaking, and quick thinking. The Debate Team’s expenses run around $1,500.00 per year. Each debater paid $15.00 dues, and they raised the rest by sell- ing candles, tapes, records, and magazines. Debate 115 The Keyettes kept very busy with many projects which they sponsored.

Mrs. Holton, the Speech Therapist, not only helps students with speech impediments, but also supports the Varsity Basketball team. Here’s a little note on the special people of the school. These were the people who set and met their goals every day. These were the people who tried to better themselves every day. These few people were special in the fact that each person saw or felt things in a different way than most. All these people needed was a helping hand to develop and master skills and talents that most people never realize they have. So stand tall and proud of your accomplish- ments. We’re with you.

As the year rotated, the band took ona new look with a fantastic sound. Joyce T. Mizer director, with the help of Daryl Mizer, helped the band members turn out a sharper appearance and excellent quality of sound to go along with the marching forma- tion. In order to get it altogether, long hard hours were spent over the summer practic- ing but it all paid-off. Before long, ‘‘Wilson’s Band was on everyone’s guest list of 78’. Invitations for the outstanding band unit came from “Virginia Beach Music Festival’’, ‘“‘Sea World in Florida,’’ ‘‘Hawaiian Band Festival,’ “‘“Annual Un- iversity of Tennessee Band Festival,’ and “Six Flags Festival Parks in both Georgia Texas’. The most exciting offer came during football half-time shows. A representative from New England Band organization asked if the band would be available to at- tend the United States Fall Festival at West Virginia, and the trip would be “‘all ex- penses paid!”’. The new looks which the band carried were white sashes, citation cords and green and white shields which spelled out W-I-L- S-O-N, in bright, bold letters.

The two just seem to fit together in this day and age, when students express their feeling for one another with a song from the radio from groups like, “KISS”, “Fleetwood Mac’, and the “BEE GEES”. The music groups I, II, and mixed chorus were doing their own tunes to entertain with songs like “Let Earth Rejoice Today’’, “You Light Up My Life’, and ‘Precious Few”’. “Singing Sergeants”. Singing yes, but why do they call themselves sergeants? The question is asked by so many. The Sergeants were formed by George Sergeant, who gave them their name, they were later on taken over by David Tate. Mr. Tate gave his best in helping the Sergeants prepare for many special events which included: the Christmas Spring Concerts, concerts given outside of school, and singing of the National Anthem at home football and basketball games. The biggest event in which the Sergeants par- ticipated in was a special T.V. program which was taped at W.S.V.A., channel 3, in Harrisonburg and was televised on Decem- ber 25th. On November 12th and 19th Mr. Tate with the help of the Sergeants hosted the All-Regionals try outs. Chosen to represent Wilson were C. Linton, K. Bruce, L. Bellamy, S. Cook, S. Mustard, T. Critzen, W. Andrews, R. Bashlor, J. Lamber, J. Moran and T. Tally. Chosen from Wilson for the All-State Regionals were Mark Stanley and Withers Andrews.

One thing hasn’t changed in thirty years the work ethic. Whether it be for games, concerts, food, clothes or just about anything, students need money. Some students ac- quire this much needed money by having an after school job. A few of the places that employed our students were Shoney’s, McDonald’s, Burger King, Shop and Save and the Rehabilitation Center. These students had to possess a special quality to be able to hold a job and keep up their grades, too. 134 Jobs Hardie’s milkshakes keep Jeff Henderson in pocket money.

The students from all grade levels and classes came together and did their work under the supervision of a teacher. Any student wishing to leave after they had completed their testing had to bring a note from a parent, otherwise they remained in the room until the activity bus ran.

Starring: The Class of 79 Featuring ““The First Annual Golden Hive Awards.” The theme for the Junior Variety Show was based on movies and theme songs such as ‘Saturday Night Fever,” “‘Evergreen”’ (from the movie ‘‘A Star Is Born’’), “‘Ballad of Jed Clampett,”’ (theme song from “The Beverly Hillbillies’), “‘Rocky,” “Smile,” “Ben,” (theme song from “Willard’’), “Hello Dolly’, and ‘‘The Little Rascals.” Other songs used were: “You Light Up My Life,” “Beautiful City,” and ““You Make Me Feel Brand New,” which were sung by the Singing Sergeants. Also included were: “Love is a Rose,” “Short People,” “‘Back in Love Again,” and the finale song ‘The Way We Were” was sung by the entire cast. As thrilling as the Junior Variety Show may have been when presented on April 8th in front of the outstandingly large audience, only those involved know the pains, headaches and long hard hours that were put into the J.V. show in order to make it a lasting memory for the Junior Class. The students performing on stage were just as important as those students performing behind stage. The Musical Director, Stage Manager, Light Operator, Props and Make-Up Committees, all had a big hand. Over all the J.V. show was a big success and earned a total of $468.

The current officers tried to excite the student body over the elections with posters, an- nouncements, the assembly, the band and free candy. Student enthusiasm was lack- ing, but was an important improvement over recent years. The office of President was unchallenged and Mark Stanly became President. Sharon Stanley was elected first Vice President, and Lorie Moe second Vice President. Susan Boxler was elected Secretary, Tommy Menafee Treasurer, Linda Morris Historian and Cynthia Con- ner was elected Reporter. With this good slate of officers the SCA will continue to work for the student body, and help to continue the upswing path for Mrs. Armentrout tells a few of the class candidates to speak very clear and to get government by the students. their point across to the audience about what jobs they can hold for next year. | tes: ii ag’ cena ity i sees a le ee sabi SEED Jenny Bocock gives open remarks before the candidates give their speech.

Music was provided by Paradox. The theme ‘‘Always and Forever”’ fitted the occasion well. Both Juniors and Seniors walked out the doors knowing that they would remember the Prom “Always and Forever.” For the first time, a King and Queen were chosen. They were Danny Foster and Stella Aizcorbe. Danny and Stella received gifts from the Junior class. In 1948, the Prom was somewhat dif- ferent. It was held in the old social hall in the old Wilson High School. Juniors and Seniors danced to the music of Joe Glese and his Melo Dear s. The Prom was held during the week because a band couldn’t be located for the weekend. Refreshments were so plentiful that the band wanted to come back and play the next year.

The administration and teachers are new. The cheers are different. The yearbook has more pages and more pictures. There are more athletic teams. Clothing styles are more liberal. Popular songs have a new beat. Fads are peakish. The curriculum is harder. The classroom is more humanized. The student population is increased. One might think that the only thing remaining the same is the name. But there is something else. It is best expressed in the words of Billy Graham class of ’51, first printed in the 1949 Hornet’s Nest: SCHOOL SPIRIT To me, school spirit means a lot of things. It means getting out and cheering at our football and basketball games, even though the team may be far behind. School spirit means not only boosting our athletic teams, but it also means something more — such things as obeying our rules and respecting our teachers, knowing and believing and trying to con- vince others in all we do and say that our school is the best anywhere. We must take pride in our school and do all that we possibly can to improve and better our school. We must all remember that we are only the first of many thousands of students who will follow us here in the years to come. Let’s all work together to found a tradition of pride in Wilson Memorial High School, so as to give those students who follow us something to be proud of and to look up to. —Billy Graham 158 Theme Closing : + ’ ‘ t £ Serie ne so meet payee ih one Mrs. Baker is willing to act in a skit looking like this because of her school spirit.

I have grown very close to some of the athletes. Tom Teerlink, Timmy Painter, Charlie Pence, Danny Foster, Darryl Byers, Paul Miller and Stella Aizcorbe are but a few of the people who have had a great influence on my life while I was here at Wilson. These people will always have a place in my heart. While here at Wilson, I have seen several different coaches pass through the school. I've seen a state championship baseball team and a district football title. I’ve seen unbelievable spirit from the student body, led by a super group of cheerleaders. I have been trusted and relied on by some of the finest people there are. I felt extremely honored and proud to have been a part of all this. ; And then, to top it all off, something hap- pened at the athletic awards banquet that brought tears to my eyes. I was given the Wilson Memorial Boosters Club Out- standing Male Athlete Award. Although I never played a sport while here at Wilson, the coaches saw fit to give me this award. This means more to me than anything I’ve ever done or received in my life. I can’t begin to show my appreciation. This was the best graduation present I could have ever hoped for, and I wish to thank the athletes, coaches, faculty and the student body for giving me an excellent five years at Wilson.
