NINE MONTHS OF NOW When August arrived, many of us sensed that something strange was about to happen. Because of the August 5 orientation, the frosh of 1977 realized first what was causing the peculiar sensation. Soon, "sch oolitis" spread over Burkburnett. Future Fish, Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors tried to cram a summer's full of fun into two weeks' tim e . Some were anxious, some cried , and some were bewildered by the im pact of the new year.

Registration began on August 12 with the enrollment of athletes and band members. Our daily pattern for the next nine months was inscribed upon a piece of paper that we gloated over and treasured. Other members of the four classes encountered this trying experience on August 1 7 , 1 8 , 1 9 , and 2 0 . We then began preparing ourselves em otionally, physically, and mentally for the shock of August 23 - the first day. «—

August 23 proved to be a very frustrating day.

Around 8 :0 0 , a few students wandered around the deserted corridors. Soon, from cars and buses, hordes of students poured into the school.

Juniors and Seniors lounged lazily in the main h a ll. Sophomores gazed around, grateful that they weren't Freshmen anymore. Peeking cautiously around the corners, Freshmen wisely tried to make themselves sca rce . Students, however, weren't the only ones with mixed emotions - teachers were somewhat reluctant to get in the routine again. When the 8:35 bell rang, fear struck the minds of everyone concerned. Finally, classes got under way, and the fear dissipated for a short tim e . After lunch, the afternoon classes went easier for a ll. 3:30 cam e and passed, and the hallways once again becam e quiet. The first day was now just a memory to be logged with those other inevitable firsts >111 Above: During the first sweltering weeks of school, changing classes gave many a relief from the stuffy classrooms.

THEY'VE GOT SPIRIT Y e s, they ce rta in ly do! T he spirit award is given to the group or person who displays the most school spirit throughout the y e a r . This year there were two winners selected by the Spirit staff to re ce iv e the Spirit aw ard.

Several factors included in se lectin g winners are how w ell they back the sch ool, what they do to b en efit the sch o o l, and in g e n e ra l, the good q u alities of the person or group. This year the Spirit staff thought that both Mr. Cunningham and the Pep Club deserved this aw ard.

M r. Cunningham cam e to work at Burkburnett High School early in 1976.

Sin ce he has been h e re , there has been a n o ticeab le d ifferen ce in the way the campus looks. It is much n e a te r. When h e ’s not working, Mr. Cunningham enjoys gardening, writing poetry and religious songs. He is also very activ e in church work. M r. Cunningham brings a great im provem ent to our high sch o o l, and we would lik e to thank him for being so concerned about our sch o o l.

Pep Club is the second recip ien t of the Spirit aw ard. This organization was chosen because of its unyielding school sp irit. For the first tim e in many years the Pep Club has cheered for a ll sports seasons instead of just fo o tb a ll. They have traveled to many out of town g am es, survived the widely known "p e p c lu b " disease, and cheered the team on in raining and freezing weather just for the sake of supporting our school. The pep club has been recognized as being the biggest pep club in the a r e a . The pep club has added a lot of spirit to this school and we would lik e to say to them : "K e e p that spirit up! " I I I

Spirit Award

ENDLESS ENERGY Marching at football gam es, performing at contests, and giving concerts were the finished products of long, hard preparation by band members. Even before school started, they m et to e le c t officers, distribute m usic, and begin work on an award-winning organization.

This took tim e , not only during class and night rehearsals, but also in practice at home or maybe even through private lessons under a qualified instructor. Band members also enjoyed summer music camps while improving their playing and musical background.

But the seemingly endless hours of study and practice paid off. There wasn’t a place where our band performed that the crowds didn't explode with applause. Even at marching contest, where they earned a superior ratin g, the band received a Standing ovation.

Changing the shows around a little was a primary concern this y ear. One of the changes involved diagonal marching - Marching at a 45° angle to the field instead of following yardlines. This style of marching was used in a drill forming rectangles while the band played a rock tune called "Sm oke on the W a te r." At the Weatherford game the band spelled out "BILL" and "P A T " in appreciation of Mr. Darland and Head Coach Sm iley.

Once football season ended and the nervous energy from marching subsided, plans for concert season began. Band members auditioned on exercises showing their tone quality and technical ability. A change in concert uniform was discussed and put to a v o te. It was decided to change from the conventional uniform of orange turtleneck sweaters and band uniform without the overlay to black floor-length dresses for the girls and black suits, white shirts, and bow ties for the boys.

ENERGY CONT’D. Some band students felt they wanted more of a challenge. This is where AllDistrict and All-Region bands and the U .I .L . Solo and Ensemble contest cam e in. When All-District tryouts were held in Iowa Park, seven poeple were selected to represent BHS in the 3A-4A band; five freshmen were picked for the ninth-grade band. All-Region tryouts were conducted a little differently. Instead of m usic, technical exercises were used in the auditions. After Region, certain players were selected to audition at Area and maybe State lev el. The A ll-State band performed at the TMEA convention in February.

Band parents dawned a new im age this year. The name "Band Parents” was changed to "Band Boosters” ; the organization was opened to any person interested in helping the bands. This y e a r, as in the past, the Band Boosters provided chartered buses to the Brownwood g am e. They also awarded to each junior a jacket and letter and to each senior a four-year letter and steak dinner.

Even though band was hard work, there was always time for fun. Band members felt that kind of unity which helps promote sp irit--a quality necessary in any successful band program.

_ DEDICATION MAKES A DIFFERENCE Singing wasn’t necessarily the major factor of being a member of the choir.

Individual interest made the difference.

Choir requires a lot of effort and determination that only a dedicated group of people could put forth. This makes a successful choir. But that didn't mean someone who was tone-deaf could walk in and begin singing the m usic. The choir practiced for concerts and contests during second hour; individuals wishing to enter U . I . L . Solo and Ensemble contest and All-Region Choir practiced at night under the direction of Mr. Jam es. This year Julie Hamilton and Harvey Toalson made the All-Region Choir.

"Idleness” was not part of a choir member's vocabulary. As a moneyraising project, they sold candles to travel to Mr. James' hometown to give a concert. In one week’s tim e they collected the necessary am ount. The choir also kept busy performing concerts for the area administrators in October, two Christmas concerts (one D ec. 9 in Burk, the other D ec. 6 in Iowa Park), and their final concert in April. They participated in a special Christmas program sponsored by KNTO radio station. The choir recorded Christmas music which was played at various times during the day on KNTO. Like band, juniors in choir received jackets, and seniors received four-year letters.

Our choir was another musical organization which brought recognition to our school.

JOURNALISM KEEPS TABS ON BHS To be on the Derrick Staff, Juniors and Sophomores submitted applications to the Derrick advisors. Forms were also sent out to English teachers for recommendations of Juniors and Sophomores.

Recommendations are based on students' ability to write, express themselves, do their own work and accep t responsibility.

They were also judged on promptness and citizenship. The final decision was made after various consultations with other faculty members.

In the beginning of the year the staff "brainstorm ed’ ' ideas; that is, compiled all the m aterial they thought should go into the yearbook. After brainstorming, ads were sold, assignments m ad e, and deadlines set.

To advertise the Derrick, the slogan "D o you know?" was started. Signs were posted and soon everyone was asking "D o you know w hat?" Then the staff wore tags saying " I know” and described the yearbook.

The staff did everything for the annual except print i t . Stories were written, typed, and put on copy sheets together with pictures which were photographed and processed by Derrick photographers.

Members were often found working weekends and nights until 1:00 A .M . to m eet the deadline only days aw ay, surviving on Sonic hamburgers and Sweetshop donuts.

The Columbia Press Association rated the '76 Derrick first p lace. The Texas High School Press Association gave the '76 Derrick the all-T exas Honor Rating.

In the MSU Workshop the '77 Derrick received second place in theme development.

This year the Spirit staff attended the T exas High School Press co n feren ce in D enton, the Interscholastic Press C onference in Austin; and the T exas W om en's Workshop at M SU. To go to these workshops, the Spirit sta ff raised over $400 by sellin g fo otball programs.

Story assignments are picked by the staff m em bers from the calend ar of the m onth. Rem aining stories are assigned by the staff's advisor.

The Spirit staff does everything for the new sp ap er--it writes and types stories on the J-w rite r, m akes picture windows and h ead lin es, develops and takes p ictu res, and creates and designs the art work and color designs. This is the only newspaper staff in this area which does everything but print.

The m em bers often stay up until after m idnight the last week before their d ead lin es, existing on pizza and Kentucky Fried C hicken.

Polls were taken during the year to see what students read the most in "S P IR IT . ” Horoscope was rated to p , Sports secon d , interview s and p o litics th ird .

Honors earned by the Spirit staff are ILPC Division III, THPA A ll-T e x a s , and CSPA Second p lace c e r tific a te , plus THPA State Championship.

JETEZT*________ Basic skills of learning and writing a new language are im p ortant, but the prim ary goals are to understand and speak the lan g u ag e. Scenes of the foreign life and culture are also inclu d ed .

T he vocabulary th at the beginner enjoys is one dealing with th eir daily a c tiv itie s and enables him to use the new language in expressing his most fa m ilia r ex p e rien ces. T op ics such as sc h o o l, fa m ily , h o m e, sports, restaurants, and m otion pictures constitu te a great in cen tiv e to p ra ctice the la n g u a g e .

By learning a foreign language the student gains insight to the history of the p e o p le , learns the geography, and the a rtistic expression of the co u n try . By acquiring a b e tter understanding and ap p reciation of the customs and traditions of the F ren ch , G erm an and Spanish speaking p e o p le , the students w ill develop desirable attitudes toward foreign people and cu ltu res.

T he French and Germ an clubs were united this year in doing bake s a le s , ca r w ashes, dances a ll leading up to a trip to Six F lag s. Holiday parties were also held at the advisor’s h o m e.

Art is like language - without an idea there is no expression.

Our artists demonstrated their ideas in a variety of mediums. In Art I , students expressed themselves in still life drawing, stick in ink, and paper m ach e.

For gifts they made hanging pots and paper m ache statues. Cartooning was a popular study. Students brought cartoon strips to spark ideas and then created their characters and plots using any medium learned. Wood carvings and constructions as well as wheel-thrown pottery composed just a few of the Art II projects. Advanced Art III classes toured the Wichita Falls Museum and Art Center. The MSU Art Department and local art association exhibits. Art III students studied m osaics, weaving, m acrem e and stenciling.

PEP CLUB CONT’D.

Above: Marian U m lah, Lynn Love, and Carol Tullis keep warm a t the Graham football g am e.

Pep Club members were continually busy throughout the y ear, whether they were providing refreshments for the athletes or decorating the halls and gymnasium. The girls made the boys' lockers the bright spots of the school by adorning them with crepe paper and ribbons. In addition to this, they made voodoo dolls and sold ribbons and Bulldog car decals. During basketball season the girls were equally a c tiv e . Pep rallies were common occurrences at both boys' and girls' games during the year. Fruit baskets were even made for the boys at Thanksgiving.

Of the numerous changes made in the Pep Club this y ear, the most obvious was probably the new uniforms. Members were easily recognized because of their brilliant orange and black uniforms and because of their equally brilliant smiles as the Bulldogs galloped from one win to another.

Throughout basketball season the members wore orange T-shirts and jeans.

The girls spent many hours cleaning and readying their uniforms for pep rallies and games.

According to Mrs. Richter, all students (and that means guys!) were eligible for membership in the Pep Club as long as they maintained at least a C - average in all classes. All officers were chosen by the members of the group, with the reporter being selected from the Freshman class. All members took part in a summer workshop in order to prepare for the year.

One of the news stories of the year surrounding BHS was made by the Pep Club at the Clyde football game on Friday, September 17, when many members becam e ill and collapsed with what newspapers and doctors termed "m ass hysteria" and "h yperventilation." But who could blame th em , with the Dogs going on for a 46 to 14 win?! bove: Pep Club girls wear cool shirts a t one of the first pep rallies.

CHEERLEADERS School spirit was one of the most prominent characteristics of BHS this past year. Perhaps the people most responsible for this were the Varsity and Junior Varsity cheerleaders. The privilege of being chosen as a cheerleader was bestowed on twelve girls in May of last year, and they have more than compensated for their selection . The Varsity cheerleaders, who were chosen from approximately twenty girls who performed before the student body, were Lisa Cadwallader, Donna Gandy, Amy Ludeke, Laura Klinkerman, Sue McDonald, and Cari Woods. JV cheerleaders, who were chosen at the same tim e , were Fred Anderson, Kristy Baird, Renee Cadwallader, Krista Grant, Nadine Mehringer, and Debbie Rousey.

Before school began last f a ll, the cheerleaders attended a special camp at which they learned new cheers and chants and, according to one of the girls, "worked from six in the morning until twelve at night. ' ’ Below; Varsity cheerleaders look on as the football boys are introduced.

GIRLS ON THE GO! During the year the girls often took tim e out to p ra ctice to g eth er, learning new cheers which they introduced during pep r a llie s . They were also involved in many other a ctiv itie s which contributed to the spirit of our s ch o o l, including providing refreshm ents for the fo otball boys.

Of cou rse, the cheerlead ers did not just disappear after fo otb all season ended. If anything, they b e ca m e more obvious. Basketball season m eant that they had to dress out in th eir uniforms three or four tim es a week in order to exh ib it th eir continuing Bulldog spirit.

Without these girls our school would have lacked the wonderful spirit and enthusiasm that is trad ition ally a symbol of BHS. Above: Junior Varsity cheerleaders urge Bulldogs on to victory.

THE HAY IS IN THE BARN One of the last comments head coach Pat Smiley made at the end of each Thursday practice was "th e hay's in the barn� : meaning the practices are over, everything is done, now all we have to do is play the gam e. And that's just what the '7 6 -'7 7 football team did. They showed great determination and proved to many teams that the Bulldogs still had the b ite .

After two long, hot weeks of tw o-a-day p ractices, the mighty Bulldogs were ready to open their season. The hay was truly in the barn, and the tim e to play had c o m e . All the basics of football had been learned; the Dogs had to put them together and play like a te a m . A team they did play lik e! They worked together, and gave many good performances all year long.

Many fans, spectators, and even players felt the Bulldogs were a secondhalf te a m .

Doug Odle and Joe Horn put the hit on Noman Grimes of Graham.

Such was the case throughout most of the year. It was rare in the first part of the season to see the Bulldogs ahead of their opponents at halftim e. The Bulldogs were very tough in the second half as proved to Hirschi and especially to Duncan. We overcame a nineteen point deficit to beat the Demons and gain our first victory to be followed by many more.

With a 2 -1 record going into the district opener against Brownwood, the Bulldogs felt hopeful of another victory.

The Brownwood Lions were rated in the state top five. We were lucky to be in the top eighty, but statistics aren't always true, as would be proven many tim es.

The tough Bulldog defense held the Lions to a 0 -0 tie until 1:47 left to play in the gam e, when the Lions finally scored. The two best defenses in the district had met in a very tough b attle.

BARN CONT'D. Although the final score was 7 -0 , the Lions had felt a very tough Bulldog defense.

The season wasn’t over though the Bulldogs still had a chance at the coveted district crown, for Brownwood had to play the same teams that Burk did. So the Bulldogs put their team together and raked up three more victories. The Dogs seemed to be on a winning streak until they cam e to the undefeated Stephenville Yellow jackets. Many people predicted

the Jackets to put an end to the Bulldog drive. They only stunned it with a 0 -0 tie for the second year in a row. The defense held the Jackets to 66 total yards, while the Burk offense moved the ball within the twenty five tim es, but just couldn’t drive the ball in the end zone. This really dampened the hope for the district title , but the Bulldogs stayed together and finished the season with two more victories.

With an impressive record of 7 - 2 - 1 , the Dogs felt they had com e a long way compared to the past couple of years. The team was aggressive,

tough, strong, and very hungry for victories. Not only did we think we were good, but the other teams did to o. The coaches of all the other teams in our district selected eleven players for the district team . Making the first team were Mark Brinkly, Herb W all, and Charlie Lewis on offense; Harold Rich, Donnie Pruit, and Doug Odle on defense. The second team honorees were Brett Patty and Matt Horn. Making the Honorable Mention team were Marty Ray, Mike Penn, and Harvey Toalson. These players showed exceptional leadership and played

outstandingly throughout the whole year. As the lights went out after the end of the last g am e, we shed many tears. For this was the last game many of the twenty-six seniors would ever play. They had overcome the bad seasons and posted a winning season their senior y ear. They showed as much leadership as a bunch of guys could produce. The coaches were proud of their team and the team was proud of their coaches, fans, but mostly themselves. A good year? You bet! We’ll always remember that the hay was in the barn.

J . V . football members played games at odd times and in weather that would make most players want to be wearing anything but a football uniform. They played many games in freezing, muddy weather and on early Saturday mornings.

But this, as stated by coaches Kenny Young and Cline Johnson, is what makes a true football player a great person. The quality of pulling through when odds are against you and playing when you wish you were somewhere else may carry on with a person throughout his life . The J . V . football team had this quality.

They had a commendable 5 -5 season and lost many close games due to uncontrollable circumstances. Also, they won many games that they weren't expected to win. Many games were very exciting and the team used their skills to dazzle the fans. They executed many different types of plays that people didn't think they were capable o f. They got their jobs done and played as a team .

Quarterback Jeff Beggs had this to say about the J. V. squad: "T h e team not only had a lot of finesse, but could get mean in tough situations. ’ ’ Players showed pride and spirit in many ways. There was always encouragement from the sidelines if they were winning or losing. The celebration in the locker room after a victorious game was almost riotous. They were proud to be a group of young men striving for and reaching a single go al. The individual players also had pride in themselves because football teaches a person many things that are useful throughout his life . It teaches him discipline, responsibility, and a drive to excel in all that he does.

Freshman football season began with practice on August ninth and ended on October fourteenth with a game against Holliday. The players worked hard under the leadership of Coaches Gilstrap and Marshall. They played close games and didn’t give up many points; for instance, they lost by only one point to Iowa Park.

They lost some key players due to injuries, causing a handicap to the te a m .

Coach Gilstrap commented " I enjoyed working with this te a m , if they keep it up and stay together, they will improve and should make a good ball te a m ." Closing out the season with a 4 -6 record, the Freshman football team gained experience that will be of value to them as they move up to Junior Varsity and Varsity team s.

TIPPED OUT BY FOUR The 1977 basketball team had some real good talen t. Putting it together sometimes was rather difficult, but in the long run, they had a good season. The final record was 20 and 1 2 , but quite a few of these losses were by only one or two points. Their games were exciting and tough and they pulled their talent together to upset the District Champs on their own court. Later on, in the second half of district play though, Mineral Wells cam e to Burk and evened the record. Brownwood seemed to be a jinx.

They had a slow-play te a m , which made a fairly dull gam e. Not much scoring could happen in this style of play.

However, when they played us at hom e, the fans witnessed one of the most exciting finishes of any g am e. Trailing by about ten , with three minutes of p lay, the Dogs tied the gam e with no tim e rem aining. The first overtime was a real th riller. Each team exchanged baskets in one of the noisiest gyms in the state.

Finally, the overtime was over with the score still tied . The next three minutes overtime began, and the team seemed to be tiring out, Brownwood ended up winning by four, but they knew they had played one of the toughest games of the season. Vernon was another team that seemed to have some sort of power with them . It wasn't that they were that much better than us, but that our team couldn't play together against them . Vernon won both games by a combined total of two points. Burk did not have many problems with Stephenville. The Bulldogs crunched them both times by more than ten points.

Iowa Park didn't pose much of a problem the first g am e, as we shot them down by twenty points, but the second game was somewhat different. Their 6'8" center posed a small problem for our te a m . This kid seemed to be in the way all the tim e .

Nevertheless the quickness and determination of our team cam e together and we won the game by one point. We

split the games with Weatherford, each team losing one. Graham didn't possess much of a threat to the Bulldogs. We paid them back for all the trouble caused the year before. The first game we won by seven, but the finest game the team played was the second where we were the only team in the area that scored more than 100 points. We did this by pounding Graham 112 to 7 6 . The game really becam e funny. As we got further ahead, the team started getting cocky and silly.

Finally when Gary Willman sunk the 100th point with about two minutes to play, the fans went crazy, and roared with excitem ent and applause. It was a fine way to wind down the season with a final score that big. The team didn't win district, but they played well all year long. The district coaches picked Brett P atty, for the 1st team all district and picked Gary W illman, Jon Lindsey, Bill P atty, and David Nix for the honorable mention te a m .

jv _ EVEN u p Under the leadership of Coach Gilstrap the Junior Varsity basketball team ended their season with a 5 -6 district record.

The team consisted of sixteen players who practiced long hard hours to improve their playing ability. They played two games a week against such teams as Iowa Park, Graham, Vernon, and Weatherford.

During district play they went up against those teams tw ice , winning one and losing on e. The going was tough, but the players kept their spirit and improved as the season progressed. They should prove to be an asset to next year's team s.

FRESHMEN HOLD THEIR OWN The freshman basketball team had a rather bad season. Playing some really tough team s, the Bulldogs had a 10 win14 loss season. Led by their new co a c h , the team worked hard, but could not always put it together. They swapped games with many team s, winning one and losing the other. Many hours of practice were put into their development of a te a m . Many times playing two or three times a week, the team couldn't get prepared for their next opponents. The season got tiring, playing and practicing so m uch, but the boys still had some heart left and finished it out. The parents of these boys should be proud, for a kid who can be active in a sport and still keep his grades up is the kind of person any coach and parent will respect. Coach Marshall led his freshman team to a 10 and 14 season, but these players learned a lot and got a lot of experience for when they are ready to move up to play JV and Varsity ball.

Boomtown relays draw student track fans every Spring. This is one day many people look forward to in the Spring because they get dismissed from school half the day for the track m e e t.

Track is a fairly large sport at BHS and interest is increasing among students.

Interested students traveled as far as Lawton, Olney, Graham, and Vernon to support the team s. 1976 proved to be a very good season as the track team brought home many team and individual trophies. The most important was the district crown which had some tough opponents with Vernon and Brownwood. The team had many good athletes who performed well in their individual events. David and Marty Ray, David Nix, Mark Langenback, and many others led our team to victory tim e and tim e again.

Athletes trained differently for each of their events. The sprinters ran short workouts, while the milers and half milers ran for distances. The weight men just strolled around throwing those heavy plates and cannon balls. The individual events took a little more time though. Perfection is a must to having a good track program, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just what the " 7 6 " track team did have. This year will prove to be another good year as many of these track stars will be back next year. The team works very hard and is expected to establish some new school records.

The 1976 b aseball team was the powerhouse of the D istrict. With an 11 to 7 season, the Bulldogs were the dominant figure in winning the district t i t l e . The team was tough and quite frequently ran up high scores, such as in the Vernon gam e when Burk won 15 to 0 . The team was re a lly good. They were q u ick, in te llig e n t, good field ers, and batters.

T here seem ed to be nothing they could not do on the f ie ld . Randy Burke was the leading pitcher of the te a m . He averaged 13 strikeouts a g a m e . Jon Lindsey was another prom inent figure with a .386 batting a v era g e . Brett Patty was the power h itte r. He led the team in home runs and runs batted in . These three led the team through the season, but about tw en ty -five other people were behind them fighting for a position. With only nine people playing at a tim e , the team had good depth on the bench. They trav elled to such places as Lawton, Step h en v ille , W eatherford, and many more a re a s. After winning d is tric t, Burk hosted Brownfield in a rainy and muddy B i-D istrict g a m e . Brownfield won 2 - 0 , but the Dogs didn't give up t ill it was over.

Golf is a fascinating sport, and a lot of talent is required to play i t . It can also be a very expensive sport. Take into consideration a person has to buy shoes, clubs, and the hardest thing to keep a hold of, the balls. All this adds up to a good deal of m oney. Even though costs are high, golf is one of the most profitable sports in the world, if you can win. W ell, high school players do not get paid when they win, but they do get some exciting trips to other parts of T exas.

Golf hasn't really made the list of major sports here in Burk y e t, but recently the town did build a new course which will aid in the development of a good te a m .

So now the golfers can practice here in Burk or at SAFB. Golfers have to practice every day to achieve consistent results.

The golf team plays in about ten tournaments a year. This year's team leaders will be Brad Darland, Bruce Brookman, and Joe Lay. We may not have any state champs on the te a m , but we have people who are willing to try , have fun, and to excel in a difficult sport.

A COURTING SPORT

Under the leadership of Coach Rix, the tennis team had a very good season. By putting in many hours of p ra ctice , Jody Reed and Steve Dye went all the way to state finals. These two were the best on the team and the best in the area as they proved many tim es. Many other people helped the program like, James Hawk, Tim Roy, and Arthur Staden. Coach Rix had his team divided into three sections so he could get the best use of his players.

The eight best players earned Varsity status, next best were placed on the JV and the rest on the Freshman te a m .

Tennis is a fast moving sport in which each player must be in shape. The team was in shape from many strenuous exercises they endured, practicing for two or three hours a day, the team got to be really good. This practice paid off as the Bulldogs traveled to many meets and won. The team traveled to such places as Vernon, Iowa Park, Wichita Falls, and many m ore. This year is expected to be another winning season, as many of the players are back along with some new hope in young tennis stars.

HOMECOMING. . .VICTORY. . .INVENTIONS Homecoming Week opened with a booming kick-off, before the football game was even seriously considered.

With the help of the workers, who quickly discovered how to m ix pleasure with labor, this year's Homecoming was one of the most successful in B. H . S . history.

Even though the once popular "b o n -fire " was not included in the Homecoming cerem onies, the fuse was lit by the firedup pep rally crowd.

Preparations for the exciting day began far in advance of the actual activ ity.

Donna Beckett of the Student Council was assigned the responsibility for Homecoming Week and the Homecoming Parade in particular. The Junior class sponsored the mum sales from September 21 to an extended date of October 8.

Another pre-activity was for each class to toss around ideas and select an idea to portray the theme "In v en tion s." On Sunday, October 3 , each class found a location for float construction and began work. After many frustrations, the floats were whipped into shape. Monday morning, October 4 , the band huddled in the main hall and provided "pep rally " style music for gathering students.

Tuesday morning launched the Spirit chain competition between classes and each alumnus generously contributed to •his class's cause. This competition extended throughout the week with the eager Freshman class winning both the recognition of the school and the double lunches of Homecoming D ay. — j Above right: Sherla Tyree decorates the Spanish club car for the Homecoming parade.

With a boisterous scream from the Fire Dept, and flashing lights of the police vehicles, the 4 2 -unit parade began.

Among the units were the clowns, flag carriers, bands, club ca rs, floats, and cheerleaders. As usual, the class floats were of the greatest expectations in the entire parade. Some students thought the Senior float was the most unique. The Senior class considered the hamburger "A m e rica ’s # 1 Inven tion." Many were skeptical of this presentation and figured that it would "bom b out! ” They were soon proven wrong. Many students considered the Junior class float, "M an Learns to F ly , ” to be the most beautiful float in the parade, but, because of com plications, it was docked two points in the float judging. The Sophomore class float, "Henry Ford’s M ach in e," set us back in the tim e of the horseless carriage’s first days. The Freshman float, "B en ’s Great Discovery, ’ ’ was centered on the theme of electricity with a bolt of lightning just missing the Freshman princess. Regardless of class affiliation, everyone thought all floats were the highlights of the parade. All that participated in the Homecoming Day Parade were commended by Mr. Darland for a job well done.”

. INVENTIONS As the evening approached, the tenseness grew to a peak. Homecoming Queen nominees, class princesses and class floats began to arrive. Young men and their dates, still ecstatic over their fresh mums, strolled up to the front gate with great expectations of the night ahead. The B. H. S . Marching Band snapped into the football stadium with pride. Before the ball was put into the a ir, the floats were driven around the football field for the judges' final consideration.

The game finally began and it "s e e ­ sawed” the entire first half with the Bulldogs edging out the Hawks 1 6 -1 4 .

Before the half-tim e Homecoming Queen cerem ony, the Iowa Park High School Band gave a spectacular performance for the fans. The Bulldog Marching Band then glided onto the field and played the background music called "F eelin gs" for the crowning. The nominees for Homecoming Queen this year were Tanna Dowling, Donna Gandy, Amy Ludeke, and Cari Woods. Princesses this year were Junior, Sue McDonald; Sophomore, Fred Anderson; and Freshman, Anita Sykes. The B. H. S. Homecoming Queen was finally announced, and the winner was . . .

NOW HEAR THIS!

Left: Lorraine Van Wey announces the daily BHS news. Center: Coach Young shows a look of frustration when the PA interrupts his lectures.

Below: David Nix, Scott Hogue, Skip Potts, and Lesa Bradberry listen attentively to the daily news.

"M ay I have your attention please . . . I hate to interrupt again . . . Go :o homeroom . . . N o , go to fifth hour . . . W ait, everyone should be in lomeroom now" blared over the P. A. ;ystem, into our classes, and echoed hroughout the halls. Because of these inexpected (but welcomed) interruptions, ve jumped out of our seats, bit our ongues, and dropped our pencils. We vere relieved when the announcements 'orced us to stop our studying and listen to :he information which may or may not lave pertained to us. The teachers had a otally different point of view. Some >ecame annoyed, disgusted, and lometimes almost vicious while others seemed to be unbothered.

That charming voice cam e to us at a ■ninimum of twice a day. During these jrief ten minutes, we were told of all of he activities at BHS. After we found out tfhat clubs met when, who won what, vhat dance would be when, and what ootball game would be where, we found >ut what we would eat on what day.

Besides a ll of this v ita l inform ation which we could not escape from h ea rin g , every once in aw hile we were inform ed of som ething we needed to h ea r, such as an assem bly or a day we would be dismissed from school early due to an out-of-tow n fo otb all g a m e . In the classroom was a mass confusion. We chattered to each other and discussed the newly heard new s.

Our teach ers gave us lectu res on why we should listen to the announcements and to help enforce th eir b e lie f in their le c tu re s , they threatened to mark off points if we insisted on continuing to ta lk . Som etim es we did rem ain sile n t, but that does not m ean that we listened to the announcem ents; our minds wandered until we were brought back to reality when the announcements c e a se d . Second and fifth hours were not the only tim es that we were perm itted to hear our P. A. system . Innum erable tim es during the day, lists of nam es were read off by the s e c re ta rie s .

Fridays seem ed to be interrupted the m ost. During football season the day

began with the fight song before first hour. T h e n , our principal interrupted to congratulate us on our last spectacular pep r a lly . He encouraged school spirit and le t us express ourselves by yellin g for our te a m . We invaded the halls during class and after a "W h a t's the good w ord?" , our enthusiasm burst out and we replied " B e a t th o s e ! " As the day progressed, the interruptions b ecam e more and more frequent. Band and Pep Club were always ca lle d early during sixth hour. But the most m em orable statem ent from the P. A. system was about 3:00 on Friday afternoons during football season. Before " L e t ’s go to the pep r a lly " could a ll be heard, p eop le’s fe e t shuffled and the halls were filled again with enthusiastic students and roars of laughs. It will be d ifficu lt to ever forget the P . A . system and the unique m em ories it held for us. | | |

There are three parking lots on the BHS campus. One to the north of the school, one to the east by the gy m , and one to the south in front of the Jan Lee Church. The parking lot on the north side of the school attracts the most attention. This is because it serves as the smoking a re a . There have been many warnings to do away with the smoking area because some smokers ignore their responsibilities.

They often leave the parking lot and go into the buildings with their cigarettes. However, most smokers observe the rules. The parking lot is used for other things too. Winter activities in the parking lot were highlighted when students warmed themselves by a fire in a trash can .

Another quality of the parking lot was its continuous mistaken identity for the Indy 500 race track. It seemed as though drivers tried to break the world land speed record while stunt driving.

Perhaps the most important quality of the parking lot was that it could brighten your day and keep you awake by looking out the window if you had a boring English class. ZZ

15 miles per hour was the parking lot speed lim it, but this was often too fast, especially with one hundred cars on the lo t. Men teachers tried to control it somewhat by warning speeders in the office. A two-time offender would often be barred from driving on the school grounds for one or two weeks. A three time loser would find himself reported to the city police. BHS students used all forms of transportation: buses, vans, bikes, and cars. Bus trips were usually the rule for school-sponsored activities, but sometimes it was necessary to travel by c a r . All students looked forward to the day they owned their veh icle, no matter the type.

WERE YOU INVOLVED? Social Studies is a wide range of sciences under one generalized topic: The Social Studies courses at B .H .S ., were American history, world history, civics, sociology and psychology.

The staff of navigators made history "m o v e â&#x20AC;? at B .H .S . One member of the staff, Mr. Taylor, was often referred to as "M r. K o tte r." The teacherstudent relationship is what makes any class tick and the social studies faculty were as well-admired as any people could be. In most circum stances, the students were encouraged to get involved in class discussion, when learning was not only the easiest for the students, but also as beneficial as any textbook reading assignment.

The classes participated in many activities. Civics and American history classes helped support their favorite presidential candidates by working many hours at the Democratic and Republican headquarters in Wichita Falls. A big part of the year was spent in local elections, to o . Chip Carter talked to students in Wichita Falls while campaigning for his father, Jim m y. Alan Steelman took time out of his busy schedule to visit with students in the high school library, while campaigning for U .S . Senate.

Other campaign bids such as: President Ford in Lawton, Oklahoma; Ralph Nader in Wichita Falls; The Hightower-Price debates at M. S . U .; and Sen. Lloyd Bentsen at the Burkburnett Bank were attended by civics students.

1977 - the year the seniors had longed to see ever since way back when, had finally arrived. Needless to say, the year had much in store for th em . The school prepared their final days all year long. If the seniors weren't ordering pictures, or announcements, or caps and gowns, they were listing their names exactly the way they wanted them to appear on the diplomas. Being the leaders of the school they showed much spirit and pride for the school and team s. The "d ay of glory" cam e when the seniors received both lunches for

the spirit they showed in the Hirschi pep rally. Having never won a class competition award of any sort, they were mighty proud.

It may not have been evident, but the seniors were quite busy the whole y ear.

Many had to take college entrance tests or apply for grants, aids and loans. Although the seniors were busy, they always had time for fun. The above cartoon describes the seniors at their best. There were all kinds of reasons to party, but the best reason of all was just being a senior. They realized they must take advantage of every minute of this special tim e .

TODAY THE KITCHEN As usual, Home Economics was one of the most popular subjects throughout the past school year. Both boys and girls enrolled in the course in order to become better acquainted with the basics of such subjects as sewing and cooking. The pupils acquired the skills of cooking by actually preparing different foods in the Home Ec classroom. Most sewing projects were also assigned for completion in the classroom , although each student did have a home project which was to be completed on his or her own tim e .

Tinkering in the automobile industry is what Henry Ford was doing when he becam e famous for mass production.

Students at BHS tinker with automobiles also, but not for the same reason Henry Ford did. These students are interested in the basic parts of an engine, how one runs, and how all the parts fit into a running mechanism.

They work for three solid hours in the morning or afternoon taking apart and putting back together those greasy car parts. When the students have completely rebuilt an engine, the long anticipated goal awaits the starting of that special work of a rt.

Working with Auto Mechanics has been a real asset for those who participated. An experienced student can now go out into the world and start a future for themselves thanks to Mr. P a ce , the Auto Mechanics teach er.

With the many agricultural problems today. Vo Ag students at B. H . S . take part and learn to help out with many of them . This course is offered to those students who wish to participate in the changing roles of the farmers and their livestock.

Some of the activities taught in Vo Ag are plant and animal scien ce, woodworking, shop safety, record keeping, and tractor m aintenance.

Students build iron gates and feeders with the help of a welding machine they also learned to operate. Two-year members learned about feedlot management and advanced study of agricultural methods.

Above a ll, leadershop was one of the most important subjects to study. The Vo Ag department also has a Coop training course where some students learned the trade by working. Businesses that participated in the Co-operative Training were Berend Brothers and Preston Dairy.

BRONCOS, BULLS, AND BARRELS One of the popular sports around BHS is rodeo. Students involved in the Rodeo Club enjoy exciting events such as bullriding, barrel racing, bulldogging, and calf roping. Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the purpose you ask? Com petition--Com peting against tim e, another rider, and yourself. Long time limits are set for bullriding. The winner is the one with the longest time in riding the bucking bronco. Short time limits are set for calf roping, barrel racing, and bulldogging. The rider with the shortest tim e wins such prizes as trophies, belt buckles, and m oney. The BHS Rodeo Club has always participated in competition with area schools.

Rodeo is one of the longer lasting sports. Rodeo season opens after the winter months and doesn't end until the next f a ll. Some students in the Rodeo Club traveled along with the rodeo for more competition and excitem en t, along with earning more trophies and prizes.

AG. BARN BUSTLES Future Farmers of America is a group of hardworking members of Vo Ag. They were busy with livestock shows, slave sales, and the usual meetings.

Members of FFA sold turkeys around Thanksgiving to help raise needed funds.

Livestock shows were held throughout the year. Each tim e, the students had to prepare their animals and load them in a truck to the sale barn. Shows were held in Wichita Falls, Burk, Fort Worth, and other places.

Students in FFA learned the art of welding this year. They built gates and a

.

pens to keep their animals in. Members of FFA also had a chance to buy rings and jackets to symbolize their club.

COSMETOLOGY TRAINING TAKES TWO YEARS Working in the beauty field can be exciting and full of experience.

Cosmetology classes are usually taken for two years. The beginners learn the basic parts of the head for massaging purposes, beauty treatments for the hair, and manicures. Second-year members learn further study of the beauty world.

Working for three hours a day, these students must travel to Carterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s School of Beauty in Wichita Falls. T here, they set up areas for their learning experiences.

These work areas have the equipment such as that in a beautician's building.

The Cosmetology students have learned all the techniques for their operator's license after the two-year course is com pleted.

Plans for a training school in North Central Texas were first approved by the Army Air Corps February 13, 1941, after the acquirement of a 300-acre site in 1940. The area was soon to be called "Sheppard Field" in memory of the late US Senator Morris Sheppard. The first contingent of men arrived in June, and the Field was dedicated October 17, 1948.

Sheppard Field was renamed Sheppard AFB August 15, 1948.

Sheppard also provides jobs for over 35 students in the dining halls, Base Exchange, Commissary, Credit Union, gas stations, Airmenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s BX, and summer work programs in the hospital and Family Services.

Sheppard has also provided education and entertainment for Burkburnett students, like the Bicentennial Freedom Train, the Armed Forces Band, the Air Force Thunderbirds, the Special Olympics and the Officers Wives Club and the Noncommissioned Officers Wives Club scholarships.

Juniors of ’77 had their work cut out for them from the beginning of the year. They started the year by sponsoring dances. Each week the class officers booked a D . J . , and found chaperones for their dances. When homecoming cam e around, several of the junior girls were busy glittering the ribbons for the mums to wear to homecom ing. The ribbons were then taken to the florist where they were attached to the flower.

Homecoming morning the girls were let out of school to deliver the final product to each girl’s hom e. The biggest fund-raising project for the juniors was the annual candy sales. A person was selected to be in charge

of each homeroom and collect the money as soon as the candy was sold. Unfortunately, many of the students chose not to turn in their m oney, and the class didn’t raise as much money as they should. There was more than enough m oney, though, to have a J r.-S r. Prom. Many afternoons after school were spent thinking of a theme and then deciding ways to carry it out. The junior class displayed a lot of spirit at pep rallies and readily participated in the homecoming activities. Next year will be an exciting and different year for this class, but they won’t forget the happy memories they have shared as juniors.

There is more to being a secretary than answering a telephone and drinking coffee, and the Office Education Association students found that out for themselves through OEA. a business class that prepares students for a future in the secretarial world. In the class, which requires one year of typing, the students learn the basics of business letters, transcripts, bookkeeping, filing, payroll, record keeping, accounts receivable, and accounts payable, and how to properly operate an adding m achine, calculator, and transcription m achine. OEA features two types of classes. The first is a two-hour lab where the students learn all the basics of becoming a secretary. The second is a Cooperative Program where the student receives on-the-job training while still.in school. The employer agrees to hire the student on a parttime basis so that she may also attend a half day of school.

OEA also features a club that provided many community activities throughout the y ear. During October they sold merchandise from the TomWat showcases. This project was to raise money to help finance their Christmas Buffet, the Employer Appreciation Banquet, and also to help pay for student contest expenses. At Christmas the students attended the Community Service Center to share cookies, presents, and songs with over one hundred children. The students also visited the nursing home to talk , sing, and play bingo with the senior citizens. The students discovered that there was more involved. They learned that to achieve success in any field one of the most important factors was getting along well with others.

This year marked the 10-year anniversary of our OEA program.

There are two employers who have employed OEA students each of the ten years. The two training stations that we would like to recognize are the City of Burkbumett (Library) and the Burkbumett Bank.

Above: Officers await the beginning of the Homecoming parade.

Future Business Leaders of America is a group of students interested in developing careers in business. They are a fairly new group at BHS but should certainly not be underestimated because they have been very BUSY around our school this year.

During the Homecoming festivities the students decorated a car and entered it in the parade. At Thanksgiving the FBLA members went door-to-door taking orders for cakes. After taking over fifty orders, they started the baking, which turned out to be more than they expected since each cake was baked from scratch. The materials left from the baking were given to a needy fam ily. In December the group sponsored a Christmas Buffet in the National Room of the First National Bank.

The Buffet was held in honor of Mrs. Gary Owen, FBLA sponsor. In January the Club sold keychains with our school mascot engraved on i t .

FBLA, like most other clubs, has a state convention. This year it was held in Dallas on April 22 and 23. Convention members could enter various competitive events, such as, Mr. and Miss FBLA, typing, bookkeeping, spelling, and vocabulary. The competition also included an event in which our FBLA club entered, putting on an original skit. For being only three years old at BHS, the group represented us well.

A ll-in -all the Future Business Leaders of America have quite a bit to show for their efforts in *76 and '7 7 . The members have many good memories of their activities and a scrapbook for others to see.

KEYED TO TIME Typing, shorthand and bookkeeping are classes that can be very helpful in getting a job after high school. In today's society many students go directly to work after high school instead of going on to co lleg e. To be able to do this and obtain a good job takes certain skills. Business courses that are offered at Burk include not only typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping, but also such courses as record keeping, business law , finan ce, and m anagem ent. These courses give students the skills needed to go into such fields as secretarial work, accounting, m anagem ent, or marketing. Taking courses in high school is a good opportunity for students to develop their .

.

abilities and also prepare for the business world.

Distributive Education is another Cooperative program offered at Burkburnett High School. The students go to school half a day, one hour of which is a Distributive Education class where they study about what they are doing and selling. The other half of their day is spent on-the-job, practicing their classwork, distributing merchandise that ranges from food to automobile parts, depending on their training station. Each DE student is required to be a member of DECA, Distributive Education Clubs of A m erica. One of the club's main activities throughout the year comes around February when they go to Area DECA contest held in a different city each y ear. Chosen students from the Burkburnett Chapter of DECA compete against other chapters in display, advertising, job interview, and many other events. From there the winners go on to state competition; then the state winners advance to National DECA. We would like to give recognition to each student and employer who have contributed to the '7 6 - ’77 DE program.

Some very important people work in our school that it would be hard to get along without. Imagine what our halls, classrooms, and the rest of the campus would be like with no one to clean up.

The students and teachers don't have the tim e to keep it c le a n , just enough time to get it dirty. So we have custodians to help us in taking pride in our school.

They enjoy lending a helping hand and are always friendly.

Another group that we could not do without is our devoted office assistants.

They do everything from keeping books and files to substitute teaching. Mrs. Bryan and Mrs. Gregory are our main office assistants. They keep the books, make deposits for school-sponsored clubs, handle transcripts, enrollment, withdrawal, and scheduling. They also help comfort the students by handing out aspirins and bandaids when needed. Mrs. Hester works in the library, keeping track of the thousands of books as they leave and com e back into the library. She also helps the students locate books. Mrs. Gilstrap and Mrs. Fulcher are our teach erâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aides. They maintain daily attendance records, type and duplicate tests and other teaching m aterials.

"Expressions" was the key word to entertainment in the good old days of '7 6 - ’77.

How? When we chose the clothes we wore, when we found a group of friends to associate with, when we chose where to go or what to do, we were expressing ourselves. We were constantly feeling new vibrations from our world and at the same time showing our own feelings and reactions through everything we did in our daily lives.

Food was the center of our social life .

Satisfied appetites and the smiles that went along provided just the right atmosphere for fun with our friends. Enjoying an evening of pizza or making a casual stop at the drive-in were popular pastimes for many groups. —

VITTLES ARE VITAL We had a variety of places and foods to choose from. Ye ole junk food was an essential part of our survival. A coke between classes, popcorn at the m ovies, or a Saturday afternoon candy bar provided quick energy and a break in the monotony. Some of us licked our lips to Mexican food, while others preferred seafood or even exotic American foods such as corn dogs and tater tots . Nothing could beat our number one version of the balanced m eal - - the Hamburger.

Every Wednesday was hamburger day, and definitely the most popular day to eat in the cafeteria. We stood in long lines, making sport of who could take cuts without getting in trouble and who couldn't. Little did we know that behind those lines of sinister smiles were hungry tummies that consumed 80 pounds of potatoes, 20 pounds of cheese, a lug of tom atoes, 10 heads of lettuce, and about 360 buns.

Chicken, BarBQ, and burritoes were favorites also. The snack bar was another alternative for those of us who ate on campus. T here, about 450 students were served per day. As a habit or for a change, many of us piled in cars and mobbed the streets of Burk on our way to the Dairy Queen, Ken's, or the Sweet Shop C afeteria.

Still others of us preferred homemade sandwiches, an apple or some other goody, and a coke to wash it all down. However, we didn't have to bring a sack lunch to school to enjoy homemade fixin's. Those of us who went home during lunch enjoyed either hot meals or the luxury of having a choice of anything in the refrigerator.

Above: Joe Swenson and Stuart Sternadel express their individuality by wearing casual T-shirts. Left: Katie Cadou, Kris Curicio and Debbie Blackwell patiently wait for the lunch line to shorten.

Although BHS fashions didn't exactly go by the books, we had definite trends in our dressing habits. Each new day began with a new assortment of clothes to notice as we busily made our way down the h all.

There was always a variety of T-shirts to catch our glances. They cam e in all shapes, sizes, shades, slogans, and smells. Often they displayed the brand name of a popular product or the name of our favorite college football team .

Whatever the shirt, it was always worn with comfortable, classical blue jeans.

Jeans cam e in styles to fit every taste: straight legged or flared, dark or faded, and usually with a few ragged threads at the bottom for trim . Top stitching made every pair unique. In October, when cold days cam e to replace the earlier sizzlers, out cam e our winter wardrobes. For boys, this meant flannel plaids, cotton or jersey prints, and quilted or embroidered shirts.

Guys and gals alike wore sweaters in every design imaginable. The main fall colors were subdued reds and blues. Girls concerned with being fashionable often wore gouchos with boots or tent dresses. ig shoulder purses, pierced-ear rings, bracelets, belts, and short blown haircuts completed the " i n ” look. The most popular shoes were earth shoes with ripple bottoms, Adidas, and ten-year-old basketball shoes. Bulldog jackets or sweaters scarcely prepared us for some of the cold days we fa ce d , but many of us insisted on wearing them even in the warm classrooms. Oddly enough, when spring ca m e , we were glad to shed our wraps and longjohns to start new trends for the new season. We would soon be wearing cut-off jeans and T-shirts again. -

IN TOUCH WITH NOW Inside information about our outside world was the basis for many of our daily conversations. We gathered this knowledge in many different ways. We read; we listened to the T . V. and the radio; we discussed current problems and issues. Wherever we were school, home, the football field , work - we formed our individual opinions and becam e directly involved in the events that were constantly shaping the world. —

At hom e, the Presidential Election held the spotlight. Democratic candidate Jimmy Carter and Republican candidate Gerald Ford fought to the end in a close election . The Spirit staff took a poll early in the year and found that students at BHS favored Carter by a 19% margin; 59% favored Carter, and 40% favored Ford.

It was interesting to compare our poll to the results of the election. The popular vote across the nation showed 51% supporting Carter and 48% supporting Ford.

According to students at BHS, trust was the major issue during the campaigns.

Many Americans felt apathetic, undecided, or frustrated because of the mistakes and strategy changes of both candidates. However dark the picture looked to these Am ericans, others were thankful that such a smooth transition of power could occur in our dem ocracy.

Meanwhile, across the nation and down the halls of our school, people were jibbering about the Medicaid ripoffs, inflation or the mass Swine Flu vaccinations. Although much of the news we discussed was disheartening, we felt only mild disgust compared to what other students our age were feeling. One school in Illinois had to elim inate the yearbook, the school newspaper, interscholastic sports, debate team s, plays, band and orchestra concerts, and lay-off many teachers and administrators because they didn’t have enough m oney. In Boston, health services and the special education program were c u t.

Many schools in Atlanta closed; and in New York the library program, music, foreign language classes, and counseling services were forfeited. All over the nation taxpayers were refusing to increase support for education. This along with a decline in SAT and ACT scores was raising many questions about educational techniques in our country. We students at Burkburnett didn't realize how lucky we really w ere.

The events which were observed and confronted didn't end in our own backyard. The year brought a panorama of events that set it apart from others.

In early September Mao Tse-tung died after 27 years of being the Chairman of

the Communist Party in China. Later he was replaced by Premier Hua Kuofeng, a ’ ’m o d erate." In Rhodesia and other African countries, white minorities and black majority groups were struggling for control. In the Swedish dem ocracy, the Social Democrats were voted out after 44 years of power. The issue - - nuclear energy and bureaucracy. It sounded fam iliar. In Lebanon, conflict between Christian and Muslem groups continued, and in Washington, a Chilean Ambassador was assassinated.

All the while, history students at BHS were watching to see what would unfold next.

Although political and social events were important, the scientific advances being made also had valuable effects. The scientists in our country were taking the lead in a field that grew broader everyday. All five of the Nobel prizes given (Economics, Literature, Physics, Biology, and Chemistry) were awarded to Americans. Researchers were constantly discovering new techniques which would make our lives easier in the future. One of the biggest advances was in the field of electronics and microcomputers. The use of silicon chips, transistors often small enough to go through the eye of a needle, enabled us to do our work faster and more accu rately. Digital watches, pocket computers, electronic games such as Pong, gas pumps, cash registers, and traffic lights were examples of such technology. Scientific research ranged from studying the possibility of life on Mars to developing new surgical procedures. These advances didn’t com e overnight. They took much more time than it took to complete the school year, but they contributed more than anything else to the fact that the good old days were in the now .1J |

There were signs of apathy towards garbage on the students’ part this school year. Now, there was no excuse! Trash is actually a very interesting ob ject. A piece of it is distinguishable from any other ite m . Another attractive feature is the fresh fragrance of stale or rotten food - a must for any public lo cation. The finely formed creases of crumpled candy bar wrappers and soda pop cans do so much to beautify campuses all around the world; so the question arose, "why should such beauty be elim in ated ?" If we did not have trash, what would we do the last 10 minutes of fourth hours? Instead of keeping such beauty neatly placed beneath our feet and appreciating it, our high school administration hired, actually hired, tyrants to snitch the splendor from before our eyes and to burn it in the flaming depths of the incinerator. An exam ple of such a tyrant was Mr. Cunningham. He could be seen at different times during the short school days lurking about the campus plucking our pride and joy from the grass and, by doing this dastardly deed, disgracing the high school. But did it bother him? Not a b it! He loved taking the beauty from all those who appreciated i t ,—

There were also many secluded places where one could stash his treasures.

Sometimes, when students were finished with delicately chomping the flavor out of their favorite chewing gum, they could even find room for it on the bottom of their desk tops or under their chairs, that is, if they were lucky! Behind plants and in shrubbery were other highly concealed treasure coves. The reasons for needlessly wasting such art work around such awesome looking weeds a re , beyond a reasonable doubt, weak. Everyone wanted to be able to look around and see this colorful tinsel easily without having to peek into bushes or under desk tops to find i t ! To find out who was the sneakiest character around the school the students and their chums sometimes held paperwad throwing competitions in the classrooms and risked having their favorite instructors catch them . The busy shuffle of students eagerly scurrying to their next classes was a perfect opportunity to do an ” open-throw-closego” job on a neighbor’s locker, and it was always a thrill for the owner to discover such a keepsake left for him.

This entire ’ ’trashy” story is meant for one, and only one, objective - - to inform others of how nice and dirty our campus was left this past year. Keep up the good work! 111 Above: The loveliest spot on campus!

THE SOUND SYNDROME There was something in the air that night — the kind of hush that infiltrates our thoughts as the wheels hug the corner we've rounded many times before. It was the 5th tim e around, and melodies echoed from everywhere interrupted by the loud nasal tone that meant " H i" And faded into . . . Gibsons, Gibsons I Love . . . rappin' on the CB radio . . . sittin' in the back row of the movie show . . . ridin' around town with all the windows down . . .

But they hadn't so we sang on with the radio even louder than before In perfect harmony with the pistons . . . Shake Shake Shake.

Maybe the hush was simply the questions in our minds - Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy?

Does anyone know where the love of God goes when the "w av es" turn the . . .

Yes, they turned the minutes to hours in our memories.

Slowly but surely tomorrow becam e today and today becam e yesterday We thought "T h a t'll be the day" when we would fondly remember yesterday As — The days of wine and roses? . . .

Did we know how much truth there was in the words "these are the good old d ay s."

Ifill 31 The atmosphere in which we lived was crowded with the familiar sounds of music, our way of identifying with our surroundings. Some of us listened to the words and gained an understanding of how and why people express themselves. Others listened for a fast beat or a catchy tune. Pop, Soul, or Country, our music was uniquely ours and would later provide a link to our past. Although every person had his favorite group or individual, well-known names were Rick Dees and His Idiots, Peter Frampton, Eagles, Rod Stewart, Kiss, Silver, England Dan, Steve Miller, K .C . and the Sunshine Band, and the Bay City Rollers. The names came and went, but our favorite phrases stayed in the back of our minds for a long time afterwards. â&#x20AC;&#x201D;

Going to see a movie was a way to fellowship with friends and gather impressions from our world. Friday and Saturday nights were the moviegoer's nights. The local Palace Theater and theaters in Wichita Falls and on base provided a large variety of movies to choose from . '' A Matter of T im e , ’ ' starring Liza Minnelli, ’ ’ The Marathon M an ,” starring Dustin Hoffman, "T h e O m en ," with Gregory Peck, "Return of a Man Called Horse, ' ' starring Richard Harris, and "Gumball R a lly ," starring everybody were a few of the movies we enjoyed throughout the year. Perhaps our favorite part of the movie was the preview. There was always something new and different "com ing soon" to entertain us.

Many of us were addicted to T . V . and spent many enlivened evenings at home or at a friend's house. Among the many choices were: Norman Lear productions, ' ’ Laverne and Shirley, ’ ’ "Happy D ay s," "Bionic W om an,” "Starsky and H u tch ," "C h arlie's A n gels," " A l i c e ," "W elcom e Back K o tte r," "Q u in cy ," "Rich Man Poor Man, ’ ' and even occasional Charlie Brown specials. Whether it was through movies or television series, the motion picture media brought excitem ent that we didn't want to miss. —

STAYIN' TUNED FOR MORE TO COME

"A relaxing break” . . . "a n excuse to get out of class” . . . "good entertainment” - - these are the ways students at Burkburnett High described the Southern School Assemblies. Before the year began, the student council officers chose the programs which would be presented to us throughout the year. About once every six weeks an individual or group cam e to Burkburnett from an agency in North Hollywood, California to provide us with "en tertain m en t.” The programs ranged from musical groups to experts in the field of archery. We had a few problems with the talkers at the assemblies, and attendance was low at tim es, but overall, we enjoyed the break in routine and gained a knowledge of the performers and their talents. —

Above: Mary Rorabau enjoys shooting the breeze with other CBers in the area. Left: Students at the first Southern School Assembly watch as Jay LaBrie tries his luck with the bow and arrow.

Another form of entertainment was tuning in to channel 19. Citizen’s Band radios continued to be a special interest among students in ’7 6 - ’7 7 . Some of us would go to great lengths to be recognized as a CBer such as installing an antenna without a radio. CBs were more than just a "conversation p ie ce " or a status symbol. They were fun and time consuming. Most enjoyable of a ll, they were useful instruments through which we could talk or listen to many different kinds of people. The language used on CBs was unique and probably contributed more to the popularity of CBs than anything else. Students who had CBs knew how much fun it was to "eyeball the seatcovers, ’ ’ "tak e a radio c h e c k ," or watch out for "green stam pers." Because CBs were becoming so popular and the channels so crowded, by January 1, the FCC had added 17 more channels to the original 2 3 . This provided 40 different frequencies for the CBers. This, together with the changing slang and very original handles, made CBing an exciting hobby.

ENTERTAINMENT IS

In the process of living each day fully by keeping satisfied appetites, well informed minds, and inspired em otions, we completed our experience by keeping a c tiv e .

Recreation often cam e in the form of com petition. In the fall and winter, football was our favorite sport. It provided a way to relax on a Sunday afternoon or something to do while we played another game called flirting.

Many of us chose to watch football on television. For most of us, the Cowboys were a favorite te a m , but in college football we each had individual preferences. Our support was more unified when it cam e to the Bulldogs. We backed them all the way and at the same time provided entertainment for ourselves and others. â&#x20AC;&#x201D;

Biking was a special interest for some of us. Learning new tricks on a bumpy trail was an exciting way to spend free tim e . Of course, if we were tired of the old games, we could always think of something new such as "buddypropelled" skateboard. Tossing a frisbee was another activity in which we could use our genius to invent new rules and techniques. Some of us preferred quieter games such as pool or cards. We also had a few promising chess players hidden in the corners of our school. No matter what we chose to do for recreation, it served as a way to relax and enjoy ourselves and our friends. Those moments would become pleasant memories in the future. 111

Most of us thought of English as a class we "had to " tak e. Often that "had to " kept us from realizing how important the classes w ere. English helped us in other classes by teaching us the grammar and mechanics of writing. The things we learned in English classes cam e in handy when writing reports or compositions.

C apitalization, punctuation, and the parts of speech were drilled into our heads until we thought we knew it a l l , but it seemed we just kept learning something new every year. We had to have three years of it because there is so much to learn. Some found English to be their favorite subject while others dreaded going into that class everyday. But we all just about agreed on one thing - English was the class for interruptions. Many things that had to be done were done in our English class, because that was the class that nearly everyone had. We had our pictures taken during English, and after they cam e in it took a few minutes of class tim e to co llect money for th em .

Yearbook sale speeches were given in each English class. These always took up a few minutes of class time and there was nothing we loved better than for something to interrupt our class.

The teachers usually complained about interruptions but sometimes we wondered if they didn't really like it just as much as we did. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Above: Mrs. McNabb helps Kathy Scrimpsher with an English assignment. Below left: Dan Van Loh gives a report in Mrs. Clam pitt's BIBLE class.

Freshmen and Sophomores had a basic English course giving equal time to the study of grammar and literature. We all remember the grammar workbooks that we had a hard time keeping track of and were usually "w ell worn" by the second six weeks of school. Each workbook took on a different appearance as it became covered with a variety of our own "a rt work. ’ ' Printed form grammar tests cam e along with the workbooks and were usually harder than the ones our teacher made up. Sophomores were constantly reminded "this is your last year of specific grammar study," which brought a feeling of relief. Sometimes we got so tired of working in the workbooks that we looked forward to studying literature, but after a few weeks of literature and having to express our own interpretations about stories, we were glad to get back to the exactness of gram m ar. Book reports, memory work of JULIUS CAESAR and books like A TALE OF TWO CITIES fill our memories of the first and second years of high school English. But most of us managed to survive our English classes and looked forward to when we were Seniors and wouldn't have to take English unless we wanted. Usually, however, when we became Seniors, English didn’t seem so bad and the majority of us went ahead and took m ore. Usually an extra year of English was taken just to fill in a needed solid credit or to help us prepare for college. —

ENGLISH CONTD.

■

Juniors and Seniors chose among many interesting topics to com plete their English requirements. Twenty-five different courses were developed so that we could pick the ones we would most like to ta k e . Sometimes, however, the course we wanted to take wouldn’t fit into our schedules, so instead we had to settle for second best or one we didn’t want at a ll. There were always a few topics that we picked because they sounded easy, but after a couple of days in the class we found that they weren't quite as easy as we had expected. NON-FICTION, SCIENCE FICTION and SHORT STORY seemed to head the list of such courses. Those of us that took these had a harder tim e than planned. The courses usually picked as second choices were MODERN POETRY, MYTHOLOGY, SHAKESPEARE, AMERICAN NOBEL PRIZE WINNERS, MODERN DRAMA, AMERICAN NOVEL, and BRITISH NOVEL. Some of the more studious of us found these to be interesting and not really as hard as we had expected , but then there were those of us who let the hard sounding titles keep us from trying to tackle the content of the courses.

INTERMEDIATE AND ADVANCED COMPOSITION, HUMANITIES I AND II, MASTERPIECES OF WORLD LITERATURE, SEARCH FOR VALUES and BIBLE seemed to totally scare us off. Just the titles alone suggested a lot of studying which most of us tried to avoid. Five new courses were added to give a more varied selection. These included CREATIVE WRITING, ROMANTIC, VICTORIAN, AND MODERN WRITERS OF ENGLAND, THE FIRST ENGLISH STORIES, BALLADS, SONGS, AND POEMS, STORIES OF EARLY AMERICAN, and STORIES OF MODERN AMERICA. We liked being able to choose the courses that covered our fields of interest. [ |j

S D P H It has been said by many that the Sophomore year is the hardest and dullest year in high school. W ell, the Sophomores of 1977 proved this theory to be wrong. They won the homecoming float contest over the Seniors, Juniors, and Freshmen. Their entry, an autom obile, showed imagination and ingenuity. They also outyelled the other classes at a pep rally and won the spirit stick and both lunches, However, there were a few bumps in their road. First of a l l ,

Sophomores are only supposed to have one e le ctiv e . That meant that most of them had a hard, solid schedule. Secondly, they were required to take the Differential Aptitude test, a two-day ordeal. Finally, being Sophomores, they had to cope with being between the exciting year as a Freshman and the busy year as a Junior. But, this year's class of '79 handled the situation with excitem ent and responsibility; a job welldone.

LIFE IS A CIRCUS

"C irc u s ." This word brings to mind many different images to many different people. To some, it creates a vision of performing animals and equestrian skills.

To others it signifies displays of gymnastics, juggling acts, clowns, aerialists, acrobatics, and "th e daring young man on the flying trapeze. " To everyone, of course, the circus is thought of as "T h e Greatest Show on Earth or "T h e Show of Shows." It represents such universal emotions as excitem ent, curiosity, eagerness, anticipation, fear and happiness. For these reasons in particular, the 1977 Derrick staff felt certain that a "circu s" theme would best represent the atmosphere of Presentation â&#x20AC;&#x2122;77.

CIRCUS CONTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;D. Ideas for Presentation '77 were conceived in early January, when the student body nominated fellow students for such honors as Class Favorite, Class Handsome and Class Beauty, Most Likely to Succeed, and, of course, Mr. and Miss BHS. Teachers selected students that they felt would best represent Who's Who of Burkburnett High School, and nominations were accepted by Future Teachers of Am erica for the Teacher of the Year award. When the list of nominees was finally made public, there were many surprises. There followed a period in which everyone in the school wondered who was up for each award, and the excitem ent mounted as the night of Presentation grew closer.

Organization of the program was the next item on the agenda. Talent tryouts attracted many eager performers from the student body, thus creating a highly talented group of individuals to entertain the audience and nominees. Much planning went into the arrangement of the program , and as a result the awards ceremony went off smoothly. Programs and tickets were printed, and reserved seats went on sale in mid-January.

Times were hectic immediately before Presentation. Derrick staff members, nominated students, and performers spent many hours practicing in order to insure a smoothly run show. Then cam e the job of decorating! The morning of Presentation dawned bright and sunny; unfortunately, the students who showed up at 8:30 A .M . to decorate were not so bright! The entire cafetorium stage was decorated with a backdrop of clowns (after a l l , what's a circus without clowns?). Staff members spent innumerable hours drawing and painting this m asterpiece, along with some much appreciated help from Teresa Howard. An archway of balloons was built, along with lifesize clowns, which brought a spark of reality to the proceedings.

CIRCUS CONT'D.

Saturday night, February 5 , finally arrived, and the anxiety of waiting finally cam e to an end. Happiness bloomed in the faces of the winners, while for the losers, hopes were crushed.

Of course, no one actually lost. Anyone even nominated for an honor was a winner in the eyes of his or her fellow students, friends, teachers, and parents.

Right: Sherri Gorham worked many late hours painting the brightly-colored backdrop. Below: Nominees nervously wait for Presentation to begin.

Most Likely to Succeed: Gary Willman and Tanna Dowling. Nominees were Marilu Rios, Elio Smythe, Stacey Allmon, and Richard Hall.

Presentation '77 was a success. Thanks to the performances of Diane Hassell, Debbie Greene, Suzanne Ellis, Pam Wheeler, Kathy Nixon, Julie Hamilton and Janet Lax, all persons present were able to relax and enj'oy the show. The nominees and winners all too numerous to mention helped make the event a success through their orderliness and desires to make a good appearance for families and friends. Finally, the presentation of the Teacher of the Year Award to Mrs. Hamilton topped the show, along with the announcement of Whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Who. Each person honored now looks forward to a new life after graduation. Their life of school is like a circus--they are packing up and moving on, leaving behind memories of good times and hard work, and looking forward to a very bright future.

W H O ’S W H O Who's Who, an intra-scholastic honor awarded by the faculty members at BHS, was awarded to twelve students on the night of Presentation. Teachers from each department chose these students on the basis of three qualifications. The students must have been enrolled in the department at least one quarter of the current year. They must have maintained a grade point average of 3 .0 or better.

They must also have displayed characteristics of leadership and courtesy.

Mike Virden represented the department of vocational careers in Who’s Who. Mike participated in Vocational Industrial Clubs of A m erica.

Through his building trades class he developed an interest in carpentry that he felt would remain with him the rest of his life as either a vocation or a hobby. He planned to either study computer science or to stay in carpentry, in which he already had previous experience working as an apprentice. In addition to these interests, Mike enjoyed adding to his nine-year-old stamp collection.

MIKE VIRDEN: If giv en the c h a n c e , should young people consider co lle g e worth their tim e and effort? ’ ’Y es, defi­ nitely. To have a degree alone is some­ thing to be proud of. The experience of college is worth it socially, education­ ally, and fin an cially .’ ’

The science department chose Kathy Graves as thier honoree. Kathy was editor of the DERRICK, member of National Honor Society, Student Council, and band for three years. She was a science contestant at UIL, and she attended the "F iv e Spheres of Science” workshop at Midwestern University.

LORRAINE VAN WEY: Do you think reporters should be required to reveal their sources in court? "N o; information is usually given in the strictest confi­ dence. To require that reporters identify their sources would be to endanger the public's right to know and the source's right to privacy. ' '

N H S IN A C T I O N C haracter, Leadership, Honesty, and Service were among the basic requirements of every National Honor Society m ember. Due to a new amendment in the constitution of the Burkburnett Chapter, members must have maintained a 3 .0 grade point average throughout their high school years. Twenty teachers chose the new members from among those found eligible according to their grades. If there were two votes cast against any one student, that student was elim inated. Finally, twenty-nine students were chosen as new members and were installed on October 16, 1976.

December was the month for two of the biggest projects sponsored by the NHS, the candy cane sales and the teachers vs. students basketball g a m e . The candy cane sale was a great success. The club sold over 2 ,0 0 0 canes - three times the amount sold last y ear. Delivering the canes seemed to trigger the excitem ent and restlessness Christmas brought.

A game between the boys and men followed and kept us laughing until the 2:30 bell dismissed us for Christmas vacation. The girls' game was highlighted by the two cheering squads, consisting of male teachers and students. Mrs. Nemecek was the first casualty in the game and had to be taken care of by the ambulance personnel, Mrs. Chittum and Mrs. Hester.

The profit helped finance the BHS Awards Program at the end of the school year. Through projects such as these, the National Honor Society experienced an active year in which they were able to meet their goals.

From the beginning the Student Council realized they would have to work especially hard to match the spirit and enthusiasm of last year's council. Officially the Student Council activities began with the elections of class representatives and officers. Elections held for senior, junior, and sophomore positions took place in May of last year. Freshman elections were held at the beginning of the year. Last year, Student Council ran for the office of state president. The van trip to W aco, the long, hard work spent on making signs and preparing speeches, and the theme of "W alk on Over to Good Times” used for the campaign are memories that will live a long tim e among the convention delegates. But, along with the happy m em ories, the realization of defeat and the promise of trying again next year remains. Other conventions held during the summer were the leadership workshop in Trinity, and the often remembered national convention in Portland, Oregon.

The eight delegates sent to the convention planned to return home by airplane, but were stranded in Denver overnight because of a late plane. The group spent the night in a Denver h otel, all expenses paid by the airlines, but without their luggage.

Student Council's first sponsored activity was the freshman orientation set up to introduce them to the school layout, the clubs offered, and several administration members. Student Council members then gave tours of the school after the general m eeting. Homecoming cam e a little later this year, and so more time could be spent planning. Donna Beckett, in charge of homecoming, got started right away.

Many days after school were spent planning the parade, thinking of new ideas for spirit week, and organizing the halftime cerem onies. Other community activities such as the spaghetti supper, Christmas caroling for the World Hunger Fund and washing windshields for the safety com m ittee were planned and carried out by the Council this y ear.

STUCO CONT'D. The wide variety of activities which benefited the school either with entertainment or education were conducted mainly by the Student C ouncil. Several of such were the Christmas and Valentine dances, Spring Fling III, and the two new projects for the year, Turkey Break and R ock-a-thon. Turkey Break consisted mainly of a raffle and a rock concert starring the band LYNX from Dallas.

For many students it was an experience they will never forget. The second project was a R ock-a-thon, headed by Mark Schroeder, for the senior citizens of Burkburnett. Braving the icy w eather, members rocked alternately for twelve hours raising the m oney.

The council worked at concession stands during all sports seasons, and sold supplies in the school store. Also the council was in charge of the Pledge of Allegiance every Monday morning.

Most of a l l , the Council supported the school with their strong school spirit.

Because of the councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s devotion and hard work, they won awards for their safety projects and at state level they won Top Ten projects. They also served as District XII President.

Even though the members may have been divided on such subjects as the Council point system , the entire group worked on different com m ittees, and, with the help of Mr. Danny Taylor, they were able to benefit the com m unity, the school, and them selves.

In the mornings, before school, the science wing was a place of social activ ity , a place to visit our friends and prepare for the day ahead. Soon, after the hush at 8 :4 5 , it becam e a place of busy activity as we prepared equipment for labs, broke test tubes, choked from the smell of burning sulphur, and singed our hair on the bunsen burner. For most of us, this atmosphere was a very fam iliar one that sometimes meant fun and at other times meant frustration. By the end of the year, we were convinced that science offered a world of knowledge for Isaac Newton, for Robert Boyle, and even for students at BHS. The question of whether it was a wonderful world was to be answered by each of us individually.

SCIENCE CONTD

Physical science was the study of m atter and energy for freshmen; it mattered to som e, but was a waste of energy to others. Nevertheless, the course was required at BHS. In the f a ll, freshmen balked at the sound of words, such as: isotopes, relativity, and electron configuration. As the year progressed, the students becam e more aware of their m eaning. They developed a general idea of the world around them through the study of simple m achines, weather, ele ctricity , and m agnetism . The conservation of energy was a topic studied and related to the students' everyday life as the Lone Star Gas Company gave us an unexpected holiday.

Biology, a study of plants and anim als, did not relate to everyday life as Physical Science did, but many of the students felt it was more interesting, more difficult, and definitely "d iffe re n t.â&#x20AC;? One different aspect of Biology was the teaching system at BHS. Changing teachers and topics every three weeks becam e routine.

Students studied a wide variety of subjects, including: cell morphlolgy, genetics, and flowering plants. Screams of " Y U K ! " from the girls and "O oh, n eat" from the boys, or visa-versa, accompanied the dissection of frogs, fish, and flatworms. After the completion of Biology, the science requirements for graduation were m e t, but many students chose to move deeper into "th e wonderful world of s c ie n c e ."

"Lab-oriented" was the term Mr. Moore used in describing his chemistry and physics classes. Experimenting was the name of the game; however, students often got more than they bargained for. Before their experiments could be useful, they had to master basic math and lab techniques. Then cam e the fun - for chemistry students it was writing formulas, testing reactions, and finding out that a mole was more than a hairy little anim al. For physics students it was measuring motion and energy, watching "gold o lâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;" Harvey E . White film s, and finding out that "ligh t plus light equals darkness."

According to Mr. Moore, everyone had a good attitude toward this work, and they were very capable of doing it.

STRANGE THINGS ARE HAPPENING .

"Strange things are happening . . . ' ’ So starts a song made popular many years ag o . Although this song was composed in the 1950's, the principle still held true this past year.

Strange things WERE happening, right here at our trusty alm a m ater. For some reason, many things either did not work right during the y e a r, or they had the habit of falling apart at the seam s. Whether it was a candy machine rumored to be the home of one of our small furry friends, or water fountains that contained no water, or perhaps Coke machines that specialized in stealing our hard-earned change, our school year was made more bearable (or less bearable, depending on the person).

Above: Tam m y Goode and Janet Clark have "fu n ” with the candy m achine.

Above: Carolyn Ball investigates a typewriter that won't work.

During the first days of school, our main concern was the school's unreliable clocks, which either added a few minutes to or subtracted a few minutes from each class, depending on how we looked at i t .

The bells which started and ended classes had a strange habit of ringing when they were least expected, or of not ringing when they WERE expected.

Locker doors continually fell off, or were unable to be closed properly. When they WOULD close, they were probably glued shut for good. Another problem was window shades. They never seemed to stay down. Instead, they usually flew up in the middle of films, (which, of course, we had to take notes on).

Speaking of films, the projectors were a law unto themselves. They caused immeasurable trouble by breaking down when the films were running. Of course, for those unlucky people who took a typing class, the typewriters were the main concern. Keys stuck continually, and the ribbons either printed so lightly that students couldn't see what they were typing or they wore into frazzles.

Probably the "strange happeningâ&#x20AC;? which disturbed us most of all was the way chalk squealed as the teachers wrote on the blackboards.

Of course, when we speak of things in our school which, for some reason, failed to function properly, we cannot overlook both students and teachers. W e, humans, also had our failings throughout the year. 111.

In their first year at high school, the Freshmen of '77 experienced the same confusion as past students. They were nervous with the thought of adjusting to a new school, where they were no longer looked up to by the other students, as they were while in junior high. During their first year they needed to be prepared for anything, especially harrassment from the other class members. Because they were the newest addition to our school, they frequently had to put up with remarks from upperclassmen criticizing the Senior Class of 1980. After the first few weeks of getting

lost, walking into the wrong classes, and walking quickly through senior h a ll, trying to n o tice, but not BE noticed, and washing cars, the new freshmen found other things to occupy their tim e and make them feel like they belonged to the school. They joined clubs and got involved in activities of the school. They were proud to be freshmen but as the quarters ticked by they realized, with some relief, that this important and formative year of high school was coming to a close. Most of the freshmen successfully made it through their first year, looking forward with good intentions to the next

GIRLS NET DISTRICT V /tW A y *n

Wi

No one ever gave much thought to there even being a volleyball te a m . Most of us just went about our own business while the volleyball team was busy winning gam es.

Then one day we found out that they had won district. Immediately we all becam e interested and wanted to be a part of the actio n . But the credit goes to the players themselves. They were the ones who worked hard every day in practice for two and a half hours; they were the ones who played a game two nights a week; and they were were the ones who won that district crown. So they are the ones who earned all the credit and congratulations. Beginning on September 16th with a game against Quanah they maintained a good record throughout the season. The district tournament was held at Graham on November 6th and 13th. Coach Fisher commented about the final game against Iowa Park in that tournament, "T h e girls were so psyched up, they couldn’t do anything w ron g." Apparently, they didn't do anything wrong because they cam e home as the district champs, with the trophy and the smiles to prove it. From there they advanced to the regionals in Lubbock where they lost a hard-fought gam e to Snyder, a more experienced team . But they didn't let that get them down because they had accomplished a great deal to be proud of and had truly earned the right to say, "W E ’RE NUMBER ONE!" Jan Klinkerman made the All-district team , and Linda McDuffy made the A ll-district and the All-regionals team s. The Junior Varsity had a very impressive 1 0 -4 season record, while the Freshmen gained experience and ended their season with a 2 -2 record.

NEW TEAM SPARKS INTEREST In a year of many changes at our high school, probably the biggest one was the formation of a girls' basketball team .

This was a first for BHS. The response to such a team was good. The student body readily accepted the team and began to back them . We quickly learned to fit more games into our busy schedules. Not only was girls' basketball accepted well by the student body, but it was overwhelmingly popular with the girls interested in trying out for the team .

They began the season with ninety-five hopeful players and ended it with thirtyfive . Coach Atchley and Coach Cunningham worked diligently with the girls to find the ones who had the best ability to play basketball. Their progress seemed slow at first, but improvement cam e quickly toward the end of the season. Altogether, they won ten games which is considered a good season for a first year team with no prior experience.

It wasn’t easy going up against teams that have been in existence for years. But the girls had to start somewhere, and we all feel that they got off to a good start.

Coach Atchley commented about the first year team with satisfaction. "W e were pleased at how well the team played and we had fun working at i t . " Everyone is looking forward to next year’s team .

There were 2 seniors, 4 juniors, 20 sophomores, and 9 freshmen this year, so next year they will have 33 returning players. All in a ll, it was an exciting year for this new te a m , and we welcome them as a part of our sports program.

SPRING SPORT POPULAR .

In the past few years Burk High School’s girls' track team has held some outstanding records. They participate in such events as the 6 0 , 100, 220 and 440 dash, 4 4 0 , 880 and m ile relay, 80 hurdles, 880 run, long, triple and high jump, discus and shot put. This year the 60 yard dash was elim inated, but the m ile run was added. Track is a favorite sport of the girls, which is proven by the number of girls who try out. It is a challenge for them to com pete against girls from other schools and they enjoy going to places like Abilene, Stephenville, Vernon, Olney, Holliday and the state m eet which was held in Austin. Burk has had a good track season in the past and this year looks promising too.

TENNIS INTEREST GROWS Tennis has been a fast growing sport in the past few years throughout the nation.

It is also growing rapidly popular at Burkburnett High School. This year’s team consisted of twenty members. They began practice at the first of the school year and continued all year until Spring when they started their m eets. The girls competed against other girls from different schools. Their tournaments were held in different towns in this district.

Tennis isn't only enjoyable to watch and participate in , but it also can promise a profitable future. Just look at Chris Evertt and Billie Jean King. Of course, we aren't guaranteeing any superstars from Burk, but we do have a super team to represent our school.

SURVIVAL A MAJOR GOAL

184 - S u rviv a l

One of the most common complaints heard around BHS during the past school year was, "th e weather stinks! " In all due respects it does. North Texas could be declared the weather capital of the United States. Almost everyone has heard the phrase "Just wait five minutes and the weather will change. ' ' How true it was throughout the past y e a r! The atmospheric conditions around our school continually changed so drastically that they posed innumerable problems for the faculty and the student body.

Temperatures ranged from 0 to 100 degrees during the school year. Along with rain , snow, s le e t, thunderstorms, and tornado warnings, this was almost too much to bear. Frequently, students wore coats in the morning because of the cold, and by lunchtime were complaining of the warmth. This went on for many weeks, until Old Man Winter finally decided to stay for awhile. We were certainly luckier in the winter of " 7 7 " than were the people on the North and East. â&#x20AC;&#x201D;

Above: Students are having a snowball fight.

Above: Students enjoy themselves at lunch

One of the worst weather conditions at BHS was the rain . At times it would pound down in torrents, and, of course, the students weren’t allowed in the halls to keep warm and dry. Teachers seemed to get a kick out of watching the rain pour from their student's hair and clothes as they worked on assignments.

Naturally, there were some students who didn’t mind the weather. They were content to splash around in the mud and slush, or slam snowballs at each other during the winter. At tim es, this practice cam e to be quite a hazard, especially at lunchtime. The highlight of the year for most pupils occurred when Lone Star Gas Company decided to close schools because of the gas curtailm ent. However, this did not last long enough, but it did give the students a badly needed holiday to catch up on overdue homework (although very few did so).

Another major problem of the past year concerned the school’s halls. At tim es, they were so crowded it was dangerous. Luckily, this problem could be solved by a few "survival tip s ." First of a ll, when walking down the science halls, a person should always follow one of the varsity linemen. Second, beware of lingering in the lockers. Many students got run out of these because of unforseen circumstances, such as a teacher. —

SURVIVAL CON’T .

Third, stay out of the halls when the lunch bell rings. The track coach would have a heyday if he could clock some of the people running to lunch. Many teachers are not too enthusiastic about this p ra c tic e , however. Some even hand out speeding tickets to Mr. Beard’s o ffice. Finally, one last survival tip to all freshmen. Stay out of the senior h a ll! Seniors of every age seem to have a "th in g ” about freshmen. The freshman hall also seemed to have the usual share of rigged lockers during the year.

Although funny in the eyes of the " r ig g e r ," the victim was usually not so humored. Some would throw fits, or get into fights over the prank. By following these few survival tips, any student can depend on getting through the school halls safely and in one p ie ce .

The final problem concerns the layout of BHS. It’s spread out over so much land, and in so many directions, that many students wish they could have a half hour just to get from one class to the other.

There is one advantage of having the school so spread out: It helps to keep everyone in shape. One reason the football players are in such good shape is that they have to run a mile and a half just to get to the field house. Some of the athletes drive cars just so they’ll make it on tim e!

The campus buildings are so widely separated that a king-sized lake is formed during the rainy season.

Unfortunately, BHS does not offer a course in oceanography. Not all high school students have the opportunity of filling their lungs with fresh air and soaking up a lot of healthful sunshine while changing classes. This layout can result, however, in soggy deficits during rainy weather. It is hard for us to be prepared for all types of weather while struggling to get to class on tim e and with the proper m aterials.

The campus layout, the weather, and all the problems in the halls, combine to make BHS a unique school. H I

The corriders and classrooms at Burkburnett High School were new for many students this year but especially for five students who cam e from foreign countries. Those of us who had the privilege of knowing these individuals soon becam e aware that they weren't much different from us. They enjoyed rock m usic, participated in sports, and shared in apathy towards certain school subjects. It wasn’t long before they felt like part of the group. We definitely learned something by coming to know them.

For Nguyen (WIN) Ha, a sophomore, the sights and sounds of Burk High were not com pletely new. Nguyen cam e to Burkburnett from Vietnam in June 1975.

His first impression of Am erica never changed from the idea he expressed when he said, " I like it; it’s fun. ’ ’ Nguyen faced several changes when he cam e to A m erica. In Vietnem , he went to school from seven o’clock until noon for six days a week. He studied a different subject every day on a rotating basis. Each class had fifty students, who were ranked from one to fifty. Nguyen never missed out on being in the top te n . In addition he played soccer and participated in other sports. At BHS, Nguyen’s favorite subject was m ath. He enjoyed electronics as a hobby and planned to study engineering after he graduated. Until then, those of us who could would look forward to two more years with him .

Josephina Guerrero cam e to BHS in the fall from El V alle, a small town near Ciudad Juarez, M exico. Although she understood English when she c a m e , communication was her major problem.

Because of this barrier, school was harder, and making friends was difficult.

However, some days were better than others, and Josephina was soon able to adjust. She later arranged to be in Spanish I class where she helped the students as much as they helped h er. At her school in M exico, Josephina studied sociology, agriculture, woodworking, and dancing in addition to courses similar to those required at BHS. There she was required to wear a uniform to school and usually had to take home much more homework than we usually did. The only other real difference was that the students did not drive cars to school.

Josephina planned to go home as soon as her father and brother finished work on the Red River Bridge. She would be very glad to be able to go hom e. When she got there she would tell her friends that the students at Burk High were very friendly towards her.

Sawangjit Chanontree Oliva (" B i c " ) was a sophomore this year. She cam e to Sheppard AFB in June from Thailand, where she had lived all of her life .

Because she had studied English since the fifth grade, she was soon able to communicate well. " B ic " attended a public school in Udon that was four stories high and had almost three thousand students enrolled. Nevertheless, there were strict rules the girls were required to wear short hair and no m ake-up.

Everyone was required to wear a uniform and to take his shoes off before coming inside. Later, " B ic " attended a Catholic school in Rayong. According to " B i c " , school was much more difficult in Thailand than in Burkburnett. " B ic " observed two general differences between people in America and Thailand. She said the biggest difference was the life style: "In Thailand, if someone decides to go somewhere, they just (boomp) get up and go. In America pepple plan what they will do next w eek .â&#x20AC;? The second difference was that Americans seemed to care for themselves m ore, and people in Thailand, on the other hand, cared for other people. " B ic " fit into BHS well. She was on the volleyball team and was in the pep club.

She enjoyed getting to know us, and we likewise enjoyed her.

Sam i, a freshman, cam e to BHS from a different type of environment. They left their home in war-torn Beirut, Lebanon in May of 1976, traveling to England, France, New York, and finally to Sheppard AFB and BHS. Their mother remained in Lebanon, and their father, in Europe.

Both Emile and Sami agreed that their school in Lebanon was more difficult than school in Burkburnett. For thirteen years, they were required to take the same subjects and studied them in more depth each successive year. They studied history, geography, m athem atics, scien ce, Arabic, French, and English from the eighth grade on. Emile said that his classmates in Lebanon studied much harder and were under much more discipline than his new classmates. Here, he considered history and civics his hardest subjects because he had only a slight Ibackground in them .

As Emile whispered calculations in French or commented on our strange words (wishy-washy, Pep rally, e t c .) , we becam e aware that he was different and preferred to stay different. However, this was not a barrier to his becoming involved and fitting in. Emile attended Student Council meetings, and often helped other students with their science or math.

Sami was also involved in activ ities.

He enjoyed the new opportunity to be in choir, since his school in Lebanon did not offer activities such as choir and band.

However, he thought that one thing lacking at Burkburnett was a boy's volleyball te a m .

After the Christmas holidays, Sami returned to his now peaceful home country to be with his m other. Emile continued at BHS, staying with his cousins Ramzi and Rania, who had lived in Lebanon also. He planned to return home once school was out and he dreamed of being able to see his friends there.

Our experience with these five students from other countries helped make the year a more interesting one. Even though our school constantly teemed with new faces from new places, we considered these five students special acquaintances.

Math, a basic and necessary skill many of us used without realizing it, is a field so broad that few of us would ever be able to understand all of its concepts. Math played an important part in our lives. Our school was built according to procedures used in m ath.

We used math to figure gas m ileage, and to figure our finances. We depended on math to determine the grades we received. However, these applications only scratched the surface. We could only try to imagine what the future held for the field of m ath.

Due to the importance of math in our daily lives, BHS offered a variety of courses. Two years of math were required of everyone. Many of us took Introductory to Algebra I and Algebra itS Others took Algebra I, geometry, and sometimes Algebra II. Most of us were satisfied by having learned the practical applications of m ath. A few were so intrigued by the challenge math offered that they insisted on taking trigonometry, math analysis, and calculus. Regardless of how far we went in the learning process, we all realized that math was becoming a priceless tool in our modem world.

DESIGNS BY THE DOZEN

During their first year of m echanical drawing, students first served as surveyors. As the year progressed, their projects becam e more difficult. They started with simple designs, such as boxes and angles; and worked up to more com plicated projects, such as diagrams of cars and three-dimensional objects.

Finally, they experienced the frustrations of a draftsman as they planned houses.

Mechanical drawing offered two different types of classes, architecture and machine drafting, for second year students. Students planned and built model houses in their architecture class.

The students who took machine drafting soon found out that the second year was much more technical and detailed than the first year. In addition to learning skills that they would use la te r, both first and second year students enjoyed the creative time they spent in m echanical drawing.

To many of us, the course we looked forward to the most was driver's ed. We were required to take six weeks of lectures, read our text book, and answer questions. After turning in a well-used folder and passing our written driver's test, we were all anxious to see who would get to drive first. Each of us needed six hours of driving and six hours of observation before taking our final driving test. Usually when our first day of driving ca m e , we were filled with anticipation and fear. Our hands were unsteady as we fastened our seat belts and started the c a r. We becam e very conscious of our actions and tried to remember everything we had learned in class. We first turned on our blinker and checked for ca rs. But before we had a chance to pull out, our instructor informed us that we had on the wrong blinker. Totally embarrassed, we quickly changed blinkers and pulled out into the mad world of drivers. After running our first stop sign and hitting a curb, we began to realize that driving was not as easy as it looked. The second and third times were easier and soon we becam e more at ease behind the wheel. Practice did make perfectâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but there were times we drove 50 mph in a 30 mph zone. Perhaps another incident, which we could later remember and laugh about, was the tim e we ran out of gas. We felt the instructor could have killed us as we walked to the nearest phone to call for help. The whole hour was wasted and we were never so embarrassed as when he insisted that he be the one to drive back to the school. When we completed our twelve hours of instruction, the next step was taking our driving test in Wichita Falls. Some of us passed it the first tim e, while others had to make more than one try at it. When we finally passed, we had our picture taken and were given our paper license. Our learning ordeal finally ended when we received our license in the m ail. We then had the responsibilities of our lives and of others when we drove.

JUMPING JACKS AND LEARNING FACTS

Above: Sixth hour foot-racers push off to a fighting start.

Our curriculum provided for our bodies as well as our minds. We were given a way to rid ourselves of our excess energy- - P .E . Though we were required to take only two years of P . E . , many of us found this to be one of our favorite subjects and took four years of P . E . In order to keep our bodies in ton e, we started class by exercising. Throughout the year we participated in many different sports, such as volleyball, basketball, softball, and so ccer.

We played some not-so-serious gam es, such as dodgeball, kickball, and wrestling. As the year progressed, we were allowed to try for the Presidential Physical Fitness Award. This required a great deal of speed, stam ina, and coordination.

We were also provided a way in which to learn how to take care of ourselvesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; Health. We were required to take two quarters of Health. This course informed us of things harmful and helpful to our bodies. Through both Health and P . E . , we becam e knowledgeable of how to take care of ourselves and keep physically fit.

Mr. James Pearson Superintendent

Burkburnett Board of Education consists of seven members elected from the school district. Each member's term is three years. Formulating the policies by which the Burkburnett Public Schools operate and legislating upon matters which affect the well-being, operation and efficiency of the public schools are the most important functions of the Board of Education.

By attending lo c a l, state, and national school board m eetings, and also by reading state and national school board literature, the Board keeps up with current education problems, trends, improvements, and procedures.

The School Board approves employment of all personnel, approves budget, checks that school funds are spent wisely, and that a complete audit is made of funds each year. Standing committees study building needs, personnel, and other improvements needed. The philosophy of the Board of Education is to provide for each student an opportunity to obtain an education; to learn the art of living to acquire skills of learning; to establish a sense of values (honesty, honor, beauty, rights of others, humor), and to appreciate the privilege of living in A m erica.

Some recent accomplishments of the Board include: Approval of girl's basketball, Community Education Program co-sponsored with the city , and additional construction at Southside Elementary School.

The responsibilities of the School Board make this one of the most important organizations in the community.

ADMINISTRATIVE GUIDES

Mr. Bill Darland Principal

Our administration is responsible for serving the students and directing their activ ities. This is a job that they perform well. As principal, Mr. Darland has developed a close relationship with the student body and acts in their best interest. Mr. K oller, the vice-principal, takes care of many problems that o ccu r. Mr. Beard is the visiting teach er, and he is known best for keeping the boys around school in line. As Dean of girls, Mrs. Skelton helps the girls with many problems.

M r. Easter serves as the vocational director, guiding the courses such as DE, OEA, HECE, and all other vocational classes. Counseling the juniors and seniors on college or job preparation is Mr. Groenewold.

Directing freshmen and sophomores on their choice of courses throughout high school is Mrs. Smiley's job.

Altogether, the administration at Burk High School does an outstanding job of running the school so that everyone can be proud of it.

NOW IT ALL ENDS As we the students of B. H. S . look back upon the school year of 1 9 7 6 - 7 7 , we see many interesting things. Of course, none of us will remember the same happenings. Some of us will cherish thoughts of football and basketball gam es. Many will always think back to the band contests, Southern school assemblies, pep rallies, and building floats. B . H .S . produced many exciting events to be stored in everyone's m em ories. Of course, each class will remember certain things which only they experienced. For the Seniors, they felt the joy of finally reaching the last rung of the high school ladder, and the pain of having to part with old friends. The Juniors prepared themselves to become the leaders of 1978 by ordering senior rings and practicing on future Freshmen.

Sophomores won the homecoming float contest, much to everyone's surprise, and many of them finally got their driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s license this past y ear. Finally, the Freshmen will think back to the trials and tribulations of the first year in high school. Each class was affected in different ways by events at B. H . S .

Of course, national events also affected the students of B. H. S. First of a l l , the civics and American history classes helped at the Democratic and Republican headquarters. They backed their candidates by attending rallies and campaigning. Some were elated by Jimmy Carter's victory, and some were disappointed by Gerald Ford's defeat. All who were involved learned a lot about politics and national elections.

Secondly, the cold weather caused gas curtailments all over the country.

Burkburnett was affected because of heavy snow which plagued our town more than on ce. However, the students thought of it as a holiday and made the most of the snow. All of these events and feelings will be pressed in the pages of our memory as the good old times of 1976-
