The mob of 1229 students who attended classes five days a week, for thirty-six weeks, on an average of six hours a day. We’re echoing you as you grew from day to day taking advantage of various opportunities for self-expression. We re capturing those special moments that one by one will all be gone but that will remain with you forever in this book. This is your yearbook — your collection of photographs and memories that will continue to echo your high school days for years to come. The future will change, but the year 1977-78 will remain untouched here between the pages of your ECHO. So look! We're echoing — 5 as you fought for a parking space each morning, in any-thing from vans to Trans Ams; and sometimes when you found an -additional parking place” . . . as you rushed to make homeroom by 8 05 in order to escape clinic after four tardies 8 • • • as you displayed your school spirit on the playing field and in the stands 9 as you gulped down your lunch in a hurry so as to have a few free minutes to spend with friends C i- 13 “Woodlawn Is on Top Again . . fW f | —man L flAA STATE 1 5LAYOFF [WOODLAWN LUTCHER I SAT 300 HERE WOODLAWN HIGH SCHOOL OODLAWN TRTCK CHAMPION These familiar words of Mr. Quinn seemed to greet us each morning before announcements. Woodlawn was always making its mark in competitive sports, in academic excellence, or in fine arts entertainment. Our track team, led by unassuming Michael Cooper, won the State AAA Championship; three of our students were among twelve finalists selected by the Optimist Club for Outstanding Senior of Baton Rouge; two students were selected to participate in All-State Orchestra; five students were selected to the All-Parish Orchestra; Craig Routh won 1st place in the Kiwanis Club Art Show; the Foreign Language students placed 2nd in the parish-wide Foreign Language Rally; the first musical in Woodlawn's history was presented; our Choir was selected to entertain on local television; FBLA students received many superior ratings at their conference and Kent Bozant was elected District IV vice president; all of our sports teams represented us well. And these are just a few! Yes, Woodlawn was on top again! 17 It Was TuAj The theme for the homecoming dance this year was All the World’s a Stage, and everyone really got into the act. There was the traditional decoration contest in which the band placed first once again. There were fifties day, bum day, and, of course, the Football Festival Court. The football game was against Port Allen, Woodlawn coming out on top with a 20 0 victory. This raised everyone’s spirit for the dance. Even the coaches got into the swing of things. It was truly a festival. Kindra Breaux — Sophomore Missy Leblanc — Sophomore The Football Festival Court this year was dominated by seniors. The eight girls who make up the court are selected by the football team, and are presented at half time. The girls are escorted by their fathers. Mr. Quinn presented the girls with rings as mementoes of the evening. 21 Expressing Yoursel I Through Involvement Woodlawn offered many opportunities for students and faculty members to really get involved. It was through involvement in school activities that we best expressed ourselves. It may be we took part in a difficult science experiment, or gave our best in an athletic event, or cheered as an interested spectator, or shared our musical ability with others, or showed what “sports ' we were by peddling our hardest in the tricycle race. Whatever the means, it was always with the giving of a part of ourselves that we truly found ourselves. 23 1 “Main Men Win Intramural Championship Eight teams participated in the 1977 basketball intramurals that were held in the gym during lunch. Coach Bailey coordinated the games which were refereed by Mitch Morell and Chuck Adams. Each member paid a $2 entry fee which was used to purchase trophies for members of the winning team. The Mad Bombers and the Main Men met in the'finals with the Main Men coming out on top. Team members of the Main Men were: Jim Tanner, Bill Humphreys, Bryan Peak, Donnie McDowell, Chuck Blanchard, Keith Alexander, Mark Collins, and Trey Kennedy. The final score was 25-20. Sound of Music a First at WHS The Speech, Choral, and Band departments combined their efforts under the direction of Ms. Virginia Hill to bring a spectacular musical to WHS for the 1st time. The Sound of Music, one of Rogers and Hammerstein's most successful musicals, was presented January 20, 21, 22, and 23 in the school auditorium. A production of this calibre and length requires many long and tiring hours of planning and rehearsal. The play was cast and rehearsals begun in early November. Ms. Hill, drama director and coordinator, Ms. Hicks, choral director, and Mr. Bernard, band director, are to be commended. 25 Tornado Watch Welcomes Darling L to R, Bottom Row: Group 1 Cindy Cedotal, Karen Wright.

Together we cheered our teams on to victory, danced to the music of the band at Homecoming, learned about the self-discipline required in karate, listened to a visiting military band, and said farewell to graduating seniors. It was through the combination of our talents, energy, and dreams that we came together and created the school called Wood lawn. We were many individuals, different in many ways — and yet we were one. 35 QGA — the Backbone of WHS The Student Government Association of Woodlawn is a club which is outstanding in it's many school projects. Their many achievements include their homecoming oro-ject and a drive to stop vandalism in the school. Another project is one in which they conducted a school-wide paper drive for funds for the club. Their most recent project is the selling of school banners which is a big success. The tradition of government m our school as carried on by the Student Government Association is one in which we can all be proud of. Officers for the year were: Jody Heck — President, Roxane Sims — Vice-President, Linda Boudreaux — Secretary-Treasurer, and Ellen Eddy — Reporter. 38 39 Beta Club Honors Achievement The Beta Club is open to students with a 3.0 average who have been nominated by two faculty members. The nominations are approved by the principal and then voted on by the club before they are inducted as members.

For this year's activities, the Woodlawn Key Club sold programs at LSU home football games, directed traffic for the LASC Guild Arts and Crafts fair, served as guides for the opening of the Baton Rouge Riverside Centroplex, went Christmas carolling for the Mental Health Association, and also helped serve lunches in the school cafeteria. This past summer Key Clubbers sold popcorn and cotton candy at the Kiwanis Crawfish Boil. The Woodlawn Key Club Sweethearts are the hardest working members of the club. S. Leblanc R Cannon R. Hanchcy 45 Keywanettes Are Really a Service Organization What is a Keywanette? Ask this question and you invariably get the answer, A Key-what? Keywanettes are a relatively new organization, but are gaming in standing every year. Keywanettes are the female half of the Key Club, sponsored by Edgewater Kiwanis, so they both do just about the same things. Keywanettes serve the community and school in many different ways, such as the weekly tutoring service. Tutoring is offered to anyone after school and at seventh hour in any subject. Last year, at the end of the school year, the Keywanettes held a fund-raising tricycle race. Money taken in was donated to the Early Intervention Program for children. In November of this year, the Keywanettes served as tour guides in the new Municipal Building. Keywanettes are about 25 strong, since the addition of new members this year. New members inducted this year are: Arlette Moore, Susie Lee. Dana Dias, Sylvia Guidry, Mary Arthur. Stacy Roshto, Cindy Furnish, Denise Davis. Stacy Smith, Shuntel Paille. Anne Looney. Carolyn Scott, Marci Shepherd, and Beth Weller. Old members are: Ellen Eddy Tina Huff, Denise Garon, Beth Rawls, Marie LaRochelle, Terri Myers, Beth Corbin. Roxane Sims.

It is a partnership between the school, the student, and a local businessman. In this program student trainees attend school parttime and receive supervised work experience under actual working conditions for wages. The student receives related classroom instruction designed to correlate business experience with school learnings. The ideal C.O.E. Student is a loyal, mature employee that is eager to learn. She accepts criticism as an aid to learning, and has a career objective in the business and office education field. She maintains an excellent attendance record on the job and at school conforming to the appearance standards set by the employer and the school.

At Christmas, stockings were filled for an orphanage as a service project. Faye Brydels Donna Jenkins The biggest project for F.H.A. is sponsoring the beauty pageant. This year the theme was based on “King Tut.” Many long hours of work were spent on the stage decorations, but they were worth it to see all the beauties in such a lovely setting. At the beginning of the year, beaus were elected. They served as the escorts in the beauty pageant. This year they were Roddy Paris, John Langlois and Michael Tigner. Not Shown: Bruce Johnson.

Members of the troupe were optimistic about its success. With over 50 members, the cast was the largest ever. Another first was the amount of time the show ran. Because of extravagant sets and costly costumes, the show was in production for four nights. The only problem, Ms. Hill said, was the amount of space on the stage and in the wings. With over 20 set changes and such a large cast, changes were tricky. In spite of these problems, everyone predicted that the show would be a huge success. 57 First Debate Team at Woodlawn The year of 1977-1978 was a unique one for the speech department. The first debate team was introduced into our school curriculum. Debate is the process whereby two teams argue opposite sides of a question. It may sound easy, but it requires analytical thinking and the ability to stand in front of a panel of judges and talk coherently. Despite many false starts and obstacles (such as a lack of evidence), the debate team finally got fired up. They participated in many tournaments such as Southeastern University, March 31-1, Northeastern, February 24-25, New Orleans, Feburary 17-18, and Acadiana, December 2-3. The first debate team has a total of sixteen members, including: Sue Bowman, Kent Bozant, Ellen Eddy, Theresa Sparks, Sherri Coxe, Kema Stubbs, Melissa Mitchell, Brenda Bell, Dana Hayes, Wendy Millien, Stacy Roshto, Shuntel Faille, Brad Banks, Clayton Nelson, Debbie Anderson, and Duanita Denton. — Vice-President, Stacy Debate officers arc: Sherri Coxe — President, Sue 8owman Roshto — Treasurer, and Brenda Bell — Secretary.

This was one of the many changes of the choir. Long rust skirts and black vests for the girls and black pants and rust vests for the boys were the uniforms which were worn by all choirs. Night rehearsals and afternoon practices helped the choirs to prepare for their various performances. The A cappella choir (below) is an advanced group consisting of over 65 members.

Hopes for a State Championship faded by 2 points in the first state playoff game. The Panthers did have a good year, however, finishing as 6 AAA District Runner-Up. It was an exciting season with 2 overtime games and last second wins over Redemptorist and Denham Springs, culminating with a 5 win 2 loss district season and a 6 win 5 loss overall. In the Jamboree, we lost a thriller to the Powerful Istrouma Indians, 6AAAA Champs. Opening the regular season, led by Brett Smith's powerful rushes, we overwhelmed Tara, a 6AAAA team by more than the 13-7 score indicated. We lost a triple-overtime thriller to Glen Oaks, another AAAA team. This was a tremendous defensive struggle. The Panthers blew a 13-6 3rd quarter lead over St. Paul in the 3rd game. The Wolves exploded, via controversial long bombs, for 26 points in the 4th quarter. In another overtime thriller, we edged a fired-up Zachary team, 6-0. At Denham Springs we overcame a 13 0 deficit to roar back for an exciting 14-13 last minute win. The combined rushes of Smith and Harger, crucial blocking by the offer sive line (BROWN DIRT), applied by the defense's goal line stands enabled the Panthers to sadden the Denham Springe homecoming crowd. In the next two games, our crushing defense shut out both Plaquemine and Port Allen. The offense, led by the passing of Bob Fails, scored almost at will. Next was a heartbreaking loss to a fired up Central Wildcat team. 98 V . . The Panthers edged a scrappy Redemptorist team in the final seconds on a fantastic, one-handed catch by Bill Humphreys in the end zone. Sure footed Carroll Carter split the uprights for the win. We failed to win the District Title in the Finale with Catholic High. Turnovers attributed to all of the Bears points in a tragic and heartbreaking loss. The Panthers took a short step into the State playoffs, losing to a scrappy St. Martinville team on their home field.

This was outstanding considering the fact that we only had two team members returning with any playing experience. Skipper Barrett played outstanding ball and was the most consistent player for the Panthers. He averaged 21 points a game for the purple 5. Chuck Adams, Mitch Morel, Humter Botts, and Rod McKissick also contributed greatly for Woodlawn. At the beginning of their season, the Panthers placed 4th in the Episcopal Tournament and 2nd in the Panther Classic. Skipper Barrett was selected to the All-District 1st team and Chuck Adams was selected as Honorable Mention to the 1st team. I 102 r Mitch Morel Senior — Guard Skipper Barren Senior — Forward Steve Gulledge Senior — Guard Andy Hearn Sophomore — Center 103 An overtime win over Port Allen (62-60) tipped off the regular season for the Panthers. Even though the Panthers lost a heartbreaker to Catholic in their next game. Skipper Barrett scored a career high of 38 points. The Panthers rallied in the third game and blew out University High 73-52. WHS was too much for the defending Class AA champions and defeated Country Day 70-55. The big payback came in the fifth game when the mighty panthers got revenge on the St. Paul Wolves for the whipping they gave our football team this season by defeating the wolves 60-59. After two close encounters with the Episcopal Knights, Panther Power came through and won the sixth game 76-53. Next came a 31 point blow out at Thibodeaux. The Panthers were hot and so was Barrett as he pumped in 30 big ones. Maybe the biggest win of the year was when our Panther 5 upset a highly regarded Plaquemine team who was the AAA State runner-up last year. The final score was 39-38. Trying to bounce back from defeat at the hands of the defending AAA champs Redemptorist, the Panthers lost to Zachary 70-65 on their home court. The next big win came at the Denham Springs High gym where the Panthers defeated the Yellow Jackets 51 -41. The Panthers had a chance for a play off berth, but were stopped by the Catholic High Bears 72-52. 104 J.V s Have Best Record in 12 Years J.V.: Kneeling: B. Deshotel. S. Lovourn, A. Hearn, S.

Here they placed fifth out of 16 teams and Ron Evans was Wood-lawn's top golfer and also finished fifth. Coach Messina said in anticipation of the '78 season, “This year the Panther golf team should be led by sophomores Ron Evans and Dave Griffel, freshman Reese Chapman, and senior Jeff Spurlock. Freshmen Jim Roll and Mike Sigler completed the team. At the time of the yearbook’s final deadline in February, all team members were hoping to reach the regional and state meets in the spring.

They started practice three weeks before school started and the girls were quite eager to get their season underway. The girls were very confident and dependent on their coach. Ms. Carol Stephens, and new asst, coach Ms. Murphy Geer to lead the way. Their main goal, as in every sport here at Woodlawn, was to make it to the top . . . STATE. These Lady Panthers did have something to be confident about because they were composed of a state team. They opened the season by competing in the Episcopal High Tournament. They placed third, and three of our Lady Panthers were named to the all-tournament team. They were: Donna LeBlanc, Tammy Tanner, and Tammy Miller. The team finished their first round of district play with a 5-2 record, los mg to St. Joseph Academy and Pori Allen. They started their second round with a charge and won five straight games. They also played in the Tara Invitational and placed fourth. Even though the varsity team lost two starters and the J.V. lost one starter, the reconstructed team entered the regional playoffs with determination and a belief in themselves. The girls won the first game against Redemptonst, but the next day they lost a heartbreaker to Brusly High. Although this team’s dream of becoming State Champions was shattered, they came away with something more important. They each felt a special closeness among them, a spirit of unity. Our Lady Panthers Volleyball team came a long way and we are all very proud of them. 119 You've Come a Long Way Baby!

This year’s team was well organized, and the girls played well together. Although the team was unable to compete in district play. Coach Stephens scheduled games for the girls so that they could obtain some experience in playing together for the following year. The girls ended up with a 4-3 record, which is not bad at all for a first year team. The team was very young having had one senior, Laurie Darouse, who was also captain. They started the season off quite slowly, and had only one practice with the newly picked team when they traveled to Zachary. Zachery had been practicing a good two months and seemed conditioned to take on the New Orleans Jazz. But surprisingly enough our girls scored thirty points. As the next game rolled around, they practiced very hard to get themselves ready for the game against Broadmoor. That game was close and the fans were surprised by their although we lost. Belaire was their next game which was played in front of their student body, and there the girls tasted a sweet victory. They played Broadmoor and Lee and won both of those games, and lost to Belaire the second time around. To end their season from an even 3-3 record, the girls were invited to take on Northside High from Lafayette, which was played in the L.S.U. Assembly Center. The game was quite an experience for the girls, and they worked hard to get ready for the game. The hard work did pay off. They won the game by a score of 39-32, and lopsided their record to one more win than loss. 121 g Suffers a Losing Season Standing: L to R: Coach Stephens. D. LeBlanc. N. Gainey, J. McCarty, J.

The discipline that is necessary for a person or a team to reach its maximum is in itself self-satisfying and fulfilling. “To a degree, you have to be crazy to play football, but most (not all) leave the game as people with more self discipline, better control under pressure, and in gen eral, a better appreciation of hard work and its necessity for accomplishment.

It is coping with deadlines, and knowing the agony of having to do a section over and over and over again. It is choosing the correct headline styles, counting copy space, and identifying 1248 students. It is long hours after school and at night, cropping and losing pictures and wishing for the final deadline. The change of sponsors was the first of many changes to come. The total outlook and layout for the yearbook were changed. For the first time in many years we have color in the introduction. To us, though, COLOR is a four-letter word — PAIN!
