TEDDY BEAR. Janie Richardson was the en- vy of her friends at the Mid-South Fair when she won the biggest prize of the day. RON OLSON. WHS students unexpectedly met Ron Olson of FM 100 during their trip to Memphis. EXPECT THE If there was one thing all students learned, it was to expect the unex- pected. Students often studied all night for a test, only to find that the test was a breeze. Or, certain that the homework would not be taken up or a pop test would not be given, they came to school unprepared, only to hear those dreaded words, OK everyone, clear your desks. Sports also had their unexpected moments, like when the Yellowjackets snatched victory from the jaws of defeat or fed victory to defeat on a silver platter. Sometimes an unlikely hero stepped off the bench and into the hearts of Jacket fans with an unexpected performance. Many students came into the ninth UNEXPECTE rade with a special group of friends, ut graduated with a completely new set. Couples were formed from two people who could not stand each other the year before. Life was constantly changing. A stu- dent might have found that he had spent his entire high school career climbing the ladder of success only to find that it was leaning on the wrong building. Or he may have labored toward his goals, only to find that achieving the goals was not nearly as satisfying as the friendships he made along the way. How many students dreamed of that perfect elate, only to find that the boy or girl next door was really the one he or she liked? TWO MUMS. Surprised Ramona Houston receives two mums from equally surprised Eric Works and Myron Cole. That is why the STINGER staff chose expect the unexpected as the theme for this year's annual. It was not just the big unexpected hap- penings like the football team con- tending for the state championship or Building I getting new floor tiles, but also those little things that came by surprise that made life more in- teresting. All students had times when plans were ruined or hap- pinesses appeared out of nowhere. The yearbook cover design of a pat- tern of squares suddenly broken by a circle design graphically represents this theme of expect the unex- pected as does the gold cover in- stead of the traditional blue.
