Designing the Parts design: to prepare the plans for; to plan and fashion skillfully. Before creating any good machine, there must be a design. If the machine is going to function for any length of time, the design had better be good. A machine is only as good as the parts. The Southwest drawing board re- ceives input from many engineers," each of whom is involved at some stage in the overall design process. Parents provide the initial raw material. Registrars, book- keepers, lunchroom staff, custodians, faculty, adminis- trators, secretaries, campus security no contribution is insignificant. The plans are developed and the design is drawn up. \& \ ws Bae Bo i \ \ \\ Le i J Assembling the Parts gear: a moving part receiving or imparting force by means of cogs engaging with cogs in a corresponding part; possible combination of such parts. Once the design receives approval, the parts move on to the assembly line. The labor force takes over now. Southwest's faculty instructs and works with each com- ponent until they are sure they have received enough drilling of facts, have been oiled with encouragement, tempered with humor, and polished to a shine before being passed on to the final stage. Testing the Parts machine: an apparatus consisting of interelated parts with separate functions, used in the performance of some kind of work. At last the finished product is ready for testing. Years of planning, re-designing, instruction and polishing have been implemented. The question is - will it function? It must be tested for fatigue and load efficiency before it can be given a final seal of approval. The metals are strong, the design good, the assembly the best possible. The testing begins. Students go for job interviews, prepared by vo- cational training. They take SATs and ASVAB for college or military service. The Big Red Machine rolls into athletic scholarships for many students. The testing com- pleted, the machines now fully geared are ready to make things happen. . . iy <> fz : _ a _ ts . Za eS i =~ FOOTBALL Awesome Comeback What's this? The SW Patriots made a reverse play!" After a disappointing 88 season last year, the team finished with a final record of 8-2 for its regular sea- son and 8-3 for post season play. As if that wasn't enough this great team tied the school record for the most wins in Southwest history. What could have caused a team to change so drastically in just a few short months? Maybe new recruits? No, the team was made up of mostly the same players as last year. OK, maybe it was a new coaching staff. No way! They had the same coaches, too. It was a rebirth of spirit and determination in a team who had it all along, but never realized it. With the help of a great coaching staff and a team who was willing to be just that, a team. They worked together and kept each other going. They began the season by winning their first game against Benjamin Banneker by a score of 21-6. After that win it didn't take long for the school and fans to get back behind the Big Red Machine." With everything intact, the team rolled over a major rival, Baldwin County, in the second game. The Pats were handed it's first disap- pointment of the year, losing to Butler 21-7. The teams fourth game was a loss but definitely not a disappointment. The Patriots dominated the Warner Robins Demons in the second half of the game, but came up shy of a victory. The next victory the Patriots took was from Northside, 14-11, in the International Ci- ty Stadium. The Pats didnt stop there. They went on to defeat Evans 39-12, Northeast 21- 13, Southeast 44-0, and Hephzibah 42- 14, for the City Championship. And to guarantee the awesome Red Machine a place in the Post Season play-offs, they defeated cross-town rival Central 7-6. The final record of the '89 season was 8-3, in a tie with the school record for the most Southwest wins. TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT: Marcus Andrews booms off a punt. Joe knows football.

The squad, coached by Iris Hill, impressed Southwest fans with victories over North- east, Central, and Southeast. After a 28 to 14 loss to Baldwin, the team won their next four games. The team finished a good season with a 4-2 record and won the city cham- pionship. Kareem Champ Brown was the leading scorer with nine touchdowns. With the winning attitude of these fine young men, the Varsity football team can look for- ward to many more succesful seasons. The fall of 1989 was a learning experience for the Southwest Ninth Grade team. Al- though the team finished with a 0-4 record, the team played with pride and determi- nation. The hardwork displayed by these young players will make good additions to the future B-Team and Varsity football teams. TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT: Walker avoids the pres- sure.

They compiled a 16-6 record and won the Savannah Hol- iday Classic Tournament. Coaches Al- bert Sharpe, Iris Hill, and David Reid felt the girls won more games than they had anticipated at the beginning of the season. The team had only three experienced players returning from last years Region Champions seniors Larita Knight and Latarsha Harvey and junior Lisa Howard. Rounding out the starting five were juniors Taniece Smith and Tonya Woolfolk.With the loss of Knight at mid-season, freshman Asa Grant was thrust into a starting 16 Girls Varsity Basketball position. The team then looked to How- ard and Harvey for their offense. Both these players were excellent outside shooters and could also drive to the basket. Lisa Howard finished the season averaging 16 points and 8 assists per game. Latarsha Harvey averaged 15 points and 8 rebounds per game.

VARSITY BASEBALL Hustling Around : The Diamond The Patriots baseball team began the season looking sharp in their new uni- forms. After a loss to Jones County, the Patriots won three in a row by defeating Central, Southeast, and Northeast. They lost to Northside in the Lem Clark Tour- nament finals. Their hopes of a good season fell through due to injuries sus- tained by two of the top pitchers. How- ever, everything came together for the Pats in the series sweeps of Baldwin and Northeast. The season ended with a 7- 12 record. In spite of less than perfect season, the future for the Patriot's baseball team looks bright.

While their jobs may appear to be all fun and games, the truth is, these very dedicated ladies put in several hours a week practicing their routines. The Varsity Cheerleaders cheer faith- fully during football season and the long basketball season. These girls put forth every effort to give support to our ath- letes, and our winning records show just how well they do. The cheerleaders have many fund- raisers each year, such as candy sales, to pay for the cheerleading camp they attend during the summer. This year the tedious work paid off. They raised enough money to go to Chicago, Illinois, 42 Varsity Cheerleaders to cheer for the boys basketball team when they played in the Windy City Classic during the Christmas holidays.

He is especially proud of a Mickey Mantle Rookie Card. His collection consists of mostly pre 1970's cards, but he does own quite a few newer ones, such as 25 of Jose Cansecos rookie cards. They may be valuable some day. | don't collect for the money, | just love baseball.

She is a member of the Council for Exceptional Children and the Georgia Association for Educators. Mrs. Kpor studied at Georgia College and Memphis State University. She has never thought of Special Education as being anything more than offering extra help for those who need it. She has travelled exten- sively throughout Europe and Africa and lived in Monrovia, Liberia, for five years. Her favorite pastimes are listening to soothing music, collecting mugs, and helping others help themselves. Southwest's Teacher of the Year for 1990 was Ms. Ann Fugate and the nominee from our school for Bibb Co. Teacher of the Year. As one of the three finalists Ms. Fugate was runner-up for this honor. She has a B.S. degree from the University of Tennessee at Chat- tanooga and an M. Ed. from Georgia College. After twenty-eight years of teaching Ms. Fruitcake, as she is af- fectionately called, still loves working with young people. At Southwest she teaches Social Studies, advises the Yearbook Staff, and keeps the scorebooks for the Varsity Basketball teams. Outside of school Ms. Fugate loves her bowling. She was named Macon's Bowler of the Year in 1980. 60 Faculty Thank You The students of Southwest High School want to send a very special thank you to the lunchroom staffs of Willingham A and B. Their day begins around 6:30 am when they arrive at school to begin scrambling eggs and frying bacon. After breakfast they begin to prepare us a well balanced meal for lunch. Our lunch usually consists of one meat, two vegetables, and a dessert of our choice. We the students, sometimes forget how hard our lunchroom staff works. Cooking food, especially in the summer when there is no air conditioning (Willingham B) can be very hard work. So the next time you go through the lunchline and the staff is waiting to serve you with a smile, remember how hard they have worked and say Thank You. TOP,WB Staff.First Row:B. Hall, E. Finny, S.

The faculty puts on this great skit annually for the Senior class. The teachers continue to put on a show that displays their Christmas spirit. Milking maids, leaping lords, and dancing ladies got the seniors rocking with Christmas spirit. Everyone laughed when Mr. Stuart, Mr. Mays, and Mrs. Rich- ardson portrayed the drummers of the Southwest Marching Band. After the skit, the teachers provided the seniors with Christmas goodies. The students really en- joyed the performance and will always cherish it. Cast Of Characters Singers-S. Bell, G. Dumas; Partrige in a Pear Tree-I. Hill, V. Phillips; Turtle Doves-A. Fugate, T.

His interest in the game and a natural curiosity got him in- terested in collecting Base- ball Cards about five years ago. Brian says he enjoys studying the statistics and trivia of the game and his favorite players. He has over nine thousand five hundred cards in his collection and Brian says as long as | am alive and they continue to make the cards he'll con- tinue to collect them. Some of the cards have become valuable over the years, but Brian's main reason for col- lecting is his love for base- ball! Seniors 69 70 Seniors In talking with French ex- change student, Christine Germain, one discovers that Chris has interests sim- ilar to our young people. Christine lives in Brittany where she has completed high school. She enjoys playing tennis, swimming, and jogging. Chris also en- joys history and philosophy and hopes to attend law school. She is also looking forward to visiting China in the future. Southwest's other ex- change student is Aaron Deang who comes from the Phillipine Islands. Both of these students are far from home, but seem to enjoy Macon's hospitality.

His interest in trains began when he visited Chattanoo- ga, Tennessee, and saw the model train layout. His father helped him construct a mod- el village, complete with mountains, stores, and hous- es. Jimmy has almost 200 engines and cars which pass through tunnels and through his town. He has boxcars, tank- ers, flatcars, and of course, a little red caboose. Other than model trains, he also has a col- lection of pewter trains. Jimmy has a genuine engineer's cap which came from the railroad museum in Strasburg, Pennsyl- vania. He also has a collection of railroad paraphernalia, which includes patches, key chains, belt buckles, spikes, and pictures. Although he will be leaving the trains be- hind when he leaves for col- lege, Jimmy will be a heck- uva engineer. Jimmy is going to Georgia Tech. Seniors 73 y / fj \ cr ae 74 Seniors If music is the international language, then Dennis Henry, Chris Griffin, and Ken Jones can really speak the language! Dennis has been playing the trumpet for six years. He says he expresses himself through his music. He per- forms with Southwest's Marching Band and Jazz En- semble and the All-State Jazz Workshop. Chris took his first piano les- son when he was nine. He has earned superior ratings in fes- tival competitions. He is work- ing on his own compositions and hopes to become one of the best musicians of all time. Ken's goal is to be the best bass player in the world. He began playing bass four years ago and plans to study music in college. He, too, performs with Southwest's Jazz Ensemble, and has re- ceived recognition by the Georgia Association of Jazz Educators and the Macon Kiwanis Club. His dream of becoming a studio musician is rapidly becoming reality.

She began to collect carousel paraphernalia while vacationing in New Hamp- shire, a state known for its champion horses. I just love horses in general, but there is a special beauty and magical quality in a carousel horse." Kristina enjoys read- ing and working with people, too.

DeWayne has delighted his friends with his tricky stunts. He slaloms (skiing with one ski) and also rides his kneeboard. He can't wait for the warm weather to arrive so he can get out on the water. Sometimes he doesnt wait he skiis in cool temperatures, too. DeWaynes current interest is in wind-surfing. He should have no problem continuing his hobby because DeWayne plans to have a career in Ma- rine biology. He'll probably grow gills before the Class of 90's tenth reunion. | g 6 C B Kevin Smith Regina Smith Dewayne Spinks Chris Spivey Lakesia Straws David Stubbs Venita Talton Skyla Laton Talton Kevin S.

The Beta Club is an honors society focused on aiding the com- munity in various ways. To become a Beta member, a student must earn a 3.6 GPA, and maintain a 3.5 GPA to remain in the club. The Beta Club participates in a number of service projects each year. The 1989-90 school year was no exception. The mem- bers of the club made goodies for the teachers during American Education Week. There was an event called military mail call, in which letters and cards were sent by Betas to military persons over seas. At Christmas time, the club sent $100 to the relief fund for Hurricane Hugo victims. On Valentine's Day, sweethearts received suckers sold by the Beta Club. In con- tinuing with their goal to serve those less fortunate, Betas collected personal hygiene items for the Macon Rescue Mission and sent Easter baskets to local nursing homes. At the State Beta Convention in February, Southwest Betas campaigned vigorously for Junior Warren Cray as he ran for the office of State President. Wearing T-shirts and chewing gum wrappers, Betas urged State members to stick with Cray. The Beta Banquet was held May 15, for Beta members only. Betas were treated to dinner, at the Willingham B lunchroom. Advisor, Judy Moore presented Beta Bea- gles to selected members. Also at the ban- quet, next years Beta officers were an- nounced.

The enthusiastic Southwest Betas pulled up to the Atlanta Hyatt-Regency Hotel looking forward to a weekend full of excitement, fun and memories. The convention consisted of inspirational speakers, get aquainted dances, col- orful skits, and dignified campaign speeches. The slogan 'Stick with Cray seemed to be the most popular theme known at the Georgia State Beta Con- vention mainly because Southwest Betas campaigned with the most spirit, pride, and confidence. With these same qualities, Warren Cray was able to cap- ture the title and office of State Pres- idency. TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT: Warren Cray runs for state Beta President.

One of the most rewarding and beneficial activities the girls par- ticipated in was The Bill Boyd Over 75 Birthday Party. When the guests arrived, the Civinettes pinned corsages on them. The girls handed out ice cream and cake and danced with some of the guests. They all had a great time. The Civinettes also adopted a nursing home this year. They enjoyed going to the nursing home on special occasions. They provided entertainment by playing volleyball and bingo with the residents. TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT: Officers; First Row Carla Cupp-V.

The Patri-Article is one of three pres- tigious publications at Southwest High School. Advising the school newspaper is a tough job which is capably handled by Sue Kalbfleisch.Two workshops are held to teach staff members skills necessary for newswriting. Following the workshop, there is an awards lunch- eon, sponsored by Georgia School Pub- lications Association. The newspapers are judged on layout and copy writing, then awards were presented. This chal- lenging event took place at the Uni- versity of Georgia in Athens on May 4, 1990. Adding to this adventure in Ath- ens was the exposure of the staff of both the Montage and Patri-Article to BIG RED MEASLES! Patri-Article Editors-in-Chief include: L. Langley and S. Moore.

Their annual Christmas concert was held at St. Joseph's Catholic Church. To raise money for their spring concert tour they had a gift wrap booth at Westgate Mall during the Christmas season. At the GMEA 1Ith District Festival their perfor- mance was rated excellent. The choir had the privilege of performing at Opryland in Nashville, Tennessee. Also under the direction of Mrs. Kimber- ly are the Show Choir and the Girls Choir. These groups also participated in many concerts. They won numerous awards with their outstanding performances. The three choirs participated in the Spring Concert, which was held at the Grand Opera House. The choir has a rep- utation of creating delightful music.

Yes, the 1990 Annual Sweetheart Coronation was an event that these young ladies will remember forever. The Sweet- heart Coronation showed the public why Southwest is the best. During this ceremony, Southwest's Jazz Band provided the audience with en- tertainment. Contestants were introduced by the Mistress of Ceremonies, Ms. Ross. The anticipation of the winner quieted the atmosphere. Then the winners were announced. They were: Miss Freshman Christy Smith, Miss Sophomore LaShondia Griffin, Miss Junior - Teresa Ayers, Miss Senior Ericka Brown. Lisa Lowe was crowned Miss Sweetheart of 1990.

The friends of the con- testants nervously kept their fingers crossed as the announcer named Skyla Talton and Joe Dupree as queen and king. The anticipation in the air was then taken over by excitement. The wild crowd stomped and yelled in the mid- night air as the king and queen silently left the field in a smile.

The dance itself, was a hit! Everyone was dancing, mingling, and having a good time. Although it was hot, the heat didn't seem to affect anyone. In fact, the heat may have caused even more people to get up from their seats and join the fun! Some say the dance was jammin', jumping, or even pumping. Others say it was cool, happening, and hittin. No matter which way you say it, the Homecoming Dance was a SMASH! TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT: Smilin Ericka Brown. Picking the perfect record.

On Thursday May 24th, the South- west Pep Club sponsored a banquet for all sports players, cheerleaders, and Pep Club members at Lake Tobosofkee. After everyone stuffed themselves with hamburgers, hot dogs, fish, and other goodies it was declared time for the games to begin." Sandy" foot- ball games kicked the cook-out off. Stu- dents ran and chased after each other in pursuit of who would become the next victim to be dunked. When the water events were over, the dancing began. As music from car and truck radios sounded, students phys- ically expressed themselves. Everyone was dancing and laughing and having a great time! Afterwards, the awards, medals, and trophies were given out. As the students resumed their dancing, it was an- nounced that the party was over and that it was time to go home. Sadly, the students packed up their awards and wet, sandy clothes, and headed for the nearest bus. For those of you who didn't have the opportunity to get dunked, there's always next year!

Hold On To The Night This year the Juniors did a great job in getting ready for the Prom. The hard work began on May 19, 1990 PROM DAY! They started their day off at eight that morning and worked until the set- ting was perfect. So perfect that the Seniors would never forget this most memorable night. Dazzling couples walked into the Ma- con City Auditorium hand-in-hand awaiting the excitement and fun that the night was expected to bring. With the music being played by the band Princess and Stardust, the students danced across the floor as if it was a moonlit beach. As the night drew on, the crowd ea- gerly awaited the announcement of the King and Queen of the Prom. Once the lead out was completed, Ms. Cynthia Warren Ross came out with the special announcement. Erica Jaskula and Chris Spivey were presented as the King and Queen of the Southwest Prom. This magical evening truly made everyone Hold on to The Night.

The Class of 1990 kicked the end of their Senior year off with a Reverse Beauty Pageant made up of males and females. The reversing of roles in the contest gave the students a chance to display such characteristics as person- ality, appearance, and talent. Between Eric Duggan and Charlie Simmons the contest was pretty exciting. This unique contest proved to be a humorous and eye-catching assembly. The next activity the seniors enjoyed was the Senior Breakfast. Each senior nad two sausage biscuits and Coke. Af- terwards they practiced the Senior song Friends. This made many students finally realize that school was coming to an end. The students wore their caps and gowns on Senior Honors Day for the first time. Following Honors Day the seniors had a luncheon in the Willingham B Lunchroom. They received placemats with their names on them as souvenirs. Later a skit was put on by the Southwest Student Council members and a Lip Sync contest was held. Various con- testants showed their talents through singing and dancing. Senior Week was finally coming to an end. The Grand Finale was the Senior Dance. It was held in the Macon Coliseums Monument Room. The music was provided by Bob's Mobile Sound. The dance lasted from 8 till 12 with many of the Seniors shouting for more. At the end they all decided to end their Senior Week with a famous chant known to the halls of Southwest.

Awards were presented to stu- dents who had been a part of each schools publication, who had shown leadership ability, and those who had participated in Math competitions, Lit- erary events, Academic meets, and De- bate and Science competition. Certifi- cates of Merit from the University of Georgia were given to each junior who had remained in the top five percent of their class. Students with the brains of Einstein were presented a Mu Alpha Theta Award, those with the poetic mind of Thoreau received a literary award, and those with the talent of Micheal Angelo were presented an art award. Nobody likes to come to school, but that statement can be proven false, because many underclassmen were rec- ognized for their perfect attendance which ranged from one to eleven years! The Honor Roll awards were present- ed to those students who had main- tained a grade-point average of 3.6 throughout the academic year. Tension really mounted as the names were called from the Principal's List, composed of students who have maintained an av- erage of 4.0 or better. To end the program the Junior Class President, Joel Stenson, made a spe- cial presentation to Mr. Stuart who was leaving Southwest to serve as the Principal of the Alternative School.

The trip to the Grand Opera House, by bus, was the first step toward full tuitions being paid, the Star Student having his last stroll, and the Senior Class to make their presentation to the school. Recognition ranged from Scholar- ships and Special Achievements to the Most Improved Honors Math Student. Smiles were washed away from their faces as the pianist began to play the chord for their senior song. They knew that with this note it was time to start packing up the dreams that had been planted and begin another chapter of their lives. Senioritis or not, the class of 1990 maintained pride for their school, academic standings, and their motto of being High and Mighty. TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT: The 1990 Honor Grad uates.

For eleven years the 1990 seniors have been eagerly awaiting the day that they could walk across the stage and accept their diploma. That day finally came on June 8, 1990. The ceremony began at 8:15 p.m., which seemed like a lifetime for the seniors since they had to arrive forty-five minutes early. The halls were filled with laughter, joy, excite- ment, and sadness. The seniors waited for the time they could hear the processional music to enter. Once inside, their stomachs were filled with butterflies, mainly because they wondered whether or not they would trip and fall while going across the stage. Then the announcer called their names happy and proud of them- selves, they accepted their diplomas and became Ready For the Future. TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT:John Robinson leads the Pledge of Allegience.

The work for the Spirit of '90 year- book started weeks before school was scheduled to begin. During the summer Senior pictures was the first job on the agenda. Once they were completed some of the staff along with Ms. Fu- gate and Ms. Phillips went to the Tay- lor Yearbook Workshop at Ga. Tech. It was on this campus that our yearbook was born. The theme had been chosen and the opening layouts had been drawn to perfection. Now it was time to see what the Taylor Representatives thought of our book. On Awards day we were awarded the Sweepstakes Award, which is the highest award in our schools size division. We were very proud of ourselves for achieving this goal. Once school began the staff had lots to learn and little time to learn it. We divided into two groups with one fo- cusing on copy and the other on layouts. This proved to be good because it gave us a little more time to work on the BIG ONE. Our first deadline was hectic. Layouts, paper, and pencils were every- where but we managed to make to the end. It was hard work but somebody had to do it. Spirit of 90 Staff:-Editor Tom Williams.

Another year has come and gone and with it another yearbook has been com- pleted. The Spirit of 90, like previous books, took many long hours of ded- icated work by the entire staff. The main cog" in the wheel of production was the editor, Tom Williams. He put in long hours to make sure the Spirit of 90 was an outstanding book. We were con- stantly hollering Tom-Tom, where is the copy for this layout? we have a deadline next week!" He never com- plained and went about his work with a smile on his face. Thanks to his work and determination the Southwest year- book was once again selected as a na- tional show book by Taylor Publishing Company. He will always have a special place in our hearts We LOVE you Tom-Tom. There were many other cogs in the wheel that helped produce this out- standing book. Special thanks to Kon- swella Fields for keeping up with the money; Chris Railey and Jerry Bus- bee for taking pictures; Cindy Chap- man for putting layouts on the com- puter; Becky Smith and Cherie Smith for chasing down pictures for their sec- tions; Heather Crawford for diligently keeping up with the news of 1990 and De Richard and Patrick Davis for keeping up with the yearly Southwest events; Jimmy Melton, Kim Pittman, Tammy Helmuth, and Catrina Tay- lor for doing a variety of jobs when called upon; and a GREAT BIG Thanks to Diana Becham for working many long hours after school was out typing all the copy on the computer. Thanks to the entire staff for collecting money, selling doughnuts, completing your as- signed sections, and for putting up with us. There were many other people out- side the staff who helped us. Thanks to Janice Childers and Esterine Stokes for their assistance in collecting debts; Kathy Keth, our Taylor representative; the photographers of SPI for taking care of us in the absence of Larry Naylor; and the faculty and administration of Southwest for their co-operation and support. The Spirit of 90 wouldn't have been possible without the hard work and as- sistance of all these people. From both of us THANK YOU! Ann and Virginia 230 Advisors Page A Special Thanks From the Editor When | was approached with the idea of being Editor of The Spirit of 90 year- book | was flabbergasted. | wondered whether | could hold up to the past quality of all the past yearbooks, would the staff like me, and most of all would the yearbook be the best ever. As time passed | felt that the staff would get used to me because | couldn't tell them what to do without laughing about it first. | believed in them and when deadlines came around and the work got piled up with all the stress and confusion they were there to back me up. As the year came to a close | finally knew that | could make this book the best. With all the help and support from my parents and all the bragging that my grandmother did, | knew that they all believed in me also (Thanks Mom, Dad, and Grandmother). Most of all THANK YOU Ms. Phillips and Ms. Fugate for putting up with me, first as your Busi- ness Manager, and then as your Editor. I'll never forget you for all your help. | also thank God for giving me the strength to stick on until the end and Larry Naylor for being more than the best photographer in the world. God bless our most dearest friend. We'll miss you Larry! Last but not least | must thank Cherie Smith for caring and teaching me how to forgive and forget as you can. | also thank you for your ruthless attitude. And | mean that in a sensitive way because your attitude is one that | would love to have. Thanks Cherie! This yearbook is sincerly the best ever and | enjoyed every minute of it. It was an experience that | will always cherish and hold dear to my heart. | know now that | am definitely READY FOR THE FUTURE!! WLiiamy Tom's Page 231 In Memory of Larry Naylor Do not go gentle into that good night, Old Age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light." Dylan Thomas It has been said by many poets that only the good die young." When we think of Mr. Larry, we know that is a truth. Larry Naylor was a photographer with Southeastern Portraits. For many years he came to Southwest, taking Senior pictures, Senior focals, Superlatives, Homecoming, Sports, everything for the yearbook. No picture was too difficult. Mr. Larry climbed rickety old ladders, went up in cherry-pickers or fire truck buckets for us in order to get the perfect shot 232 In Memorium But he was more than just our photographer. He was our dear friend. He helped us with difficult layouts and laughed with us as we worked on the Spirit. We would see Larry coming with camera bags on each shoulder, his old, thick coffee mug in his hand, a smile on his face, and we knew we'd get the job done. He always left us with a smile and, Drive Careful. We lost our friend to cancer on May 13,1990. Those of us who knew and loved Mr. Larry' have set up a Memorial Scholarship to be given each year to a Senior Annual Staff member. The names will be added each year to a plaque in Larry's honor. It is with love that the Advisors and Staff of Spirit of 90 dedicate the yearbook in the memory of Larry Naylor. Drive Careful, Mr. Larry! i Ad te ea ae yet .
