Knowledge at its best. Some say that to lear n by doing is how to acquire knowledge. Others say it is to listen to those that know. At SW you take in both aspects of acquiring knowl- edge and wisdom: by doing chemistry experiments; interacting with other stu- dents; listening to your parents, teach- ers, and counselors. All will provide you with valuable advice you need for the present and for the future. The knowl- edge that you acquire in school and at home, and knowing how to apply this knowledge is to have wisdom. AY IT WITH IGNITY The admired George Washington, the respected Martin Luther King, Jr. . . Renowned men of dignity. The ability to acquire admiration and respect is no easy accomplishment. Events through- out history have given us people of great stateliness and integrity. There are also many who acquire distinction within our own surroundings: the caring teacher, the student who brings honor to the school, and the parent who is the source of encouragement and guidance. These people enhance the teaching of self re- spect and esteem, which are found every day at SW. AY TT WITH EELING The tenderness of Mother Theresa, the love of Romeo and Juliet... Per- sonalities of affection. Experience creates a multitude of feelings and emo- tions in our lives. The ability to express our innermost thoughts with compas- sion and understanding can create an atmosphere of gratification to oneslf and to those with whom we have contact. Some experiences result in excitement while others may bring a lump to the throat. During our years at SW we have experienced thrilling triumph; defeat; and the consoling words of a counselor, teacher, or a friend. orl *?. we ae NOY: af Gee ite sf. 4 FOOTBALL Patriot Pride This past season was not a phys- ically good year for the Southwest Varsity football squad. Most record keepers would probably consider the 91-92 football season as being a los- ing one, but not the students, faculty members, and team members of Southwest High. The Patriots amazed crowds week after week as they relentlessly led assaults on op- posing teams. The team, led by only a handful of skilled seniors, never gave up. They were always walking proudly away and never lowering their heads to even give a hint of a defeat. Not to mention the excep- tional job on the part of the coaching staff in keeping this years team at- titude positive. A teams record may say a lot about that team but it can never even begin to tell the true story of how courageous this young and small team really was on the field. Nev- ertheless, our Patriots overwhelmed several teams along their way in at- tempting to better themselves and eR RR he et, 7 . 2 Varsity Football represent Southwest High School with dignity and pride. This young and courageous group of Minutemen gave patriot fans a whole lot of something to cheer about as they rallied over Evans in a 21-0 asault at homecoming. The coaching staff is looking foward to next year, as they are ex- pecting a lineup of experienced and well-rounded individuals to present to Patriot fans a great year of South- west football.

This talented and hardworking group of young men, led by expe- rienced coaches such as Albert Sharpe and Iris Hill, went undefeat- captured the City- Championship for the second year in a row. The B-Team began the year with a hard fought victory over Northeast. It was a rainy day, just typical for a group like this to hang in and defeat N.E. by a score of 6 to 0. This was an opening debut in which the team finely displayed their goal fulfilling ability. The next team which fell victim to the squad was our city rival, the Central Chargers. The Patriots walloped the Chargers in a thrilling 14 to 0 victory, that set the pace in which the Patriots kept all year. The group went on to defeat two more teams, ending the year 4-0, and sweeping the championship. This year the Ninth Grade team also had a goal fulfilling year. The ed and 8 B-Team/Ninth Grade Football team, coached by John Mathews and Haywood Simmons, defeated Northeast twice with scores such as 6 to 0 and 24 to 6. Further into the year the squad tied Houston Co. ina close game which had Patriot fans on the edges of their seats. The gang ended the season with a final record of 2-2-1. TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT: D.

The squad finished 3rd in the Southwest Invition- al Tournament, 4th in the Area Tour- nament, and 24th out of 72 teams in the State Tournament. Coach Dan- ny Grube says next years team should greatly improve as twelve members are returning.

The inexperience of the Lady Pa- triots caused a great many problems for the team. With only one return- ing starter from the previous year the odds were definitely against the Lady Pats. The team finished the season with a 1-17 record. The rec- ord doesnt show that many of the games were extremely close some lost at the buzzer and even one in double over-time. Retiring head coach Albert Sharpe says he was proud of this team because they never quit. Sharpe was assisted by David Reid and India Cater.

Basketball AA Girls Varsity Basketball Tradition Upheld Under New Leadership Che winning tradition of Southwest basketball is known throughout the country. This season was no exception. With only three experienced players re- turning from last years squad, the young, but talented Patriots upheld this tradition. Under the leadership of new head Coach Clyde Barden and Assis- tant Coach Ronald Taylor the Patriots finished the season with a 20-5 season. [hey started off the season by com- piling an 8-0 record before losing their first game to LaGrange in the CITGO Christmas Tournment in Griffin, Geor- 16 Boys Varsity Basketball gia during the Christmas holidays. Af- ter the Christmas break the team con- tinued their winning ways earning a 15- 2 record before losing to Northeast 31- 33 in late January. Going into the Sub- Region Tournament the Pats were 18- 4. They Northside in the opening game 68-52 and won the Sub- defeated Region Championship in a double over- time victory 72-70 over Baldwin Co. In the semi-final game of the Region Tournament in Augusta, the Patriots lost a heart breaker to Northeast 44-46. Chis loss kept the Patriots out of the State tournament for the first time u 12 years. Even though the team lose four outstanding players, they will be ; force to content with in the 92-93 sea son.

Coach Edgar Hatch- er, who is in his fourth year as head coach said for being a young team they did a great job and expects next year to be better. Tim Hicks, who is only a junior, had another solid season for the Pa- triots. Tim, who plays shortstop and occasionally the outfield, batted .468 with 7 homeruns and 32 runs batted in. He pitched nearly 50 innings with a 5-3 record. Players who had good years for the Patriot team: Brad Simmons, senior, batted .355 and Tarik Goff had a .362 batting average, with 6 homeruns and 32 runs batted in. Other players who helped contribute to the teams success were Charles Halligan, Stacy Little, and Todd Walker. Over the course of the season, the Patriot baseball team had a lot of close games and big region wins. The team picked up their first region win with a 6-2 victory over Northside. Tim Hicks pitched a com- plete game allowing only 4 hits. On March 27, the team beat Northeast 8-6. On that day, the Pa- triots hit 3 homeruns as they piled up 10 hits overall. Todd Walker picked up the victory that raised his record to 2-0. The next day Clarke Central, a team from Athens was the Patriots next victim. On just 8 hits the team scored 14 runs.

This year the team had some exciting matches as they greatly im- proved their golfing skills. Consisting of four seniors and one junior the team finished with a 3 2 record. The number one player for each match was determinined by the low score of the player from the previous match.

Complex Principal Dr. Columbus Watkins is always on top of things, that is, when hes not out shooting the hoops. You cant outsmart Willingham A Prin- cipal David Reid at school or on the courts. Another administrator that keeps Southwest High in spirit is Mrs. Jackie Richardson, Associate Principal of Instruction, who really pumps up our school spirit. Our oth- er pro-athletes include: Jesse Mays, Willingham B Assistant Principal, who can always slug a homerun; Bill Boyd , Assistant Principal, who never fumbles in work or play; and last but not least Director of Vocational Ed- ucation, Charles Rogers, the tennis star. Our administrators work really hard to ensure that things are run- ning very smooth and efficiently. Many students dont realize how much pressure is put on the admini- stators each day they are at school. Even with all the responsibilities these leaders have, they always seem to make sure Southwest is successful in all that we do. Our administrators always say it with pride when it comes to Southwest High School. TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT:Dr. Watkins ready for the hoops. Mr. Reid is in the swing of things.

But, there is a part of me that expresses through music, mostly rap music. That is what Mr. Gregory Cubit says about his music hobby. Mr. Cubit, who was inspired by the Sugarhill Gang, began working in music in 1986. From studio record- ing to being a D.J., Mr. Cubit has taken his hobby seriously. He hopes to enter the music industry as an art- ist/writer/producer. He is presently on a demo tape for himself and also for some local artist in the Middle ia area. Mr. Cubit says he hopes to make a serious move into the industry and come back to help others. He would like most of all to be a positive role model to his audience. Milton Ivery Math; Computer Club.

If anyone has ever had Mrs. Cyn- thia Warren-Ross you may have heard her say I run 409. Not any- more, Mrs. Ross has now gone from English teacher to Motivational Counselor as you may already know. Mrs. Ross says she was happy in the classroom, teaching English and that she has also loved working with young people; however, because of the many problems that youths are faced with, she decided to seek train- ing in counseling. When asked which one she liked better, she replied, I love them both. The two jobs ac- tually work hand in hand. Mrs. Rosss advice to a younger counselor is to try to be as real and up-front as possible and to always be honest.

Not only do they provide us with a well balanced lunch, but a nutritious breakfast as well. In order to do so, they must also arrive at school as early as 6:30 AM every morning to begin cooking a healthy breakfast for those who do not have time to eat at home. Then, of course, the lunchroom staff must diligently begin to cook up lunch for 1500 hun- gry mouths. Being responsible for making sure that the students at Southwest have a well balanced diet is not an easy task; therefore, the lunchroom staffs should be commended for a job well done.

Sheila Bell and Geraldine Dumas began the show with their musical rendition of the song. As each day was introduced in the song, characters portraying the day would appear from behind closed doors in the gym. The gym shook with the loud roar of laughter and whistles as each character ap- peared. The Cast of Characters were: Singers-S. Bell, G. Dumas; Par- trige in a Pear Tree-I. Hill, V.

Amelia has been drawing since she has been able to write. Not encouraged by any- one specifically, Amelia gives her mother credit for supporting her tal- ents. She has won sev- eral awards and hopes to turn her passion into a career. Also an enthusiast of drawing, David Krum- mrichs interests go be- yond the easle. Talent- ed in drawing, David is unique in his choice of collecting; skulls are his fancy, and he has col- lected 15 skulls of all kinds. David is definite- ly an artist of unusual taste. She has really flipped!! Since the young age of seven, Cindy Chapman has aspired to be a great gymnast. She first became interested when she saw her father doing handsprings in the yard. After that Cindy decided to go to school. Since then Cindy has competed in over fifty competitions and has won about 200 awards. She is a member of the U.S. Gymnastic Federation, AAY, and the Gym Nests of Macon. She has traveled to several cities such as: Houston, TX. (competed in Jr. Olympics); Hot Spring, AR. (won Arkansas Health Fest); Florida, Alabama, South Carolina, and Atlanta, GA. She won the Georgia State Championships Class III in 1988. In Cindys senior year, she had an injury and had to have reconstructive surgery on her knee, but she hopes to coach gymnastics and even participate in competitions again. 68 Seniors Vanessa Stamps is really the cats meow. She has been in love with cats since she was a little girl of five years. Since the age of ten, Vanessa has collected over fifty cat items and has had eight live cats. Vanessa has become a great lover of cats and wants to pass her colllection on to her daughter, Chirlonca, when she is old enough to enjoy them. Chris Mulllis and Damiso Lamb both enjoy the martial arts. Influenced by his friend, Chris became inter- ested in karate in 1985. It started out as something new to try but became much more. Since taking up the sport, he has collected sev- eral magazines and books, and participated in tourna- ments that have led to re- gional and state champion- ships. Chris also gives demonstrations for various organizations. Damiso Lamb became in- terested in the martial arts at a young age while watching Kung-Fu Theater, with Bruce Lee serving as an in- spiration. He has received several medals and devotes his time to teaching classes. Damiso hopes that one day he will own his own karate school. Flying has been a passion of Tim Clarks since he was a child. While most kids wanted to be doctors, law- yers, and firemen, Tim wanted to be a pilot. In a years time, he has col- lected seventeen model airplanes. Over a period time Tim hopes to increase this col- lection. Tim is more than a collector of model airplanes; he actually flies them. He is a stu- dent at Flight South. By the time he graduates he hopes to obtain his private license. Kevin Thomas and Rearcous Smith share a love of music. Kevin plays numerous instruments, such as: the piano, saxo- phone, oboe, bassoon, french horn and clarinet. In the band Kevin plays a different instrument every season: saxophone (marching season, spring concert), bassoon (Christmas), French Horn (spring festival). Kevin was influenced greatly by his mother and 7th grade music teacher. He plans to learn how to play the trombone and baritone. He strongly be- lieves that everyone should put their God giv- en talents to use. Rearcous Smith is very active in the performing arts, with performances of singing, dancing, and act- ing. He began singing at a very young age with his great-grandmother. Since his younger days, he played the leading role in the play Purlie. He has also won several trophies for his singing talents.

They are the pride and glory of the many tradi- tions at Southwest. The bands hard work started long before school opened. During the summer months, band members were at school brav- ing the sun to prepare for the up- coming football season. Their hard work paid off with the presentation of three awesome shows at half-time performances. The Country and Western show was the hit of the year. Dressed in country and western out- fits, the band danced to the music of many famous country and western tunes. This show brought the crowd to their feet with thundering ap- plause. After football season is over the band doesnt stop performing. In De- cember the band traveled to Atlanta to march in the Christmas parade. Here too, they were greeted with enthusiastic applause and were also highlighted on television by the local broadcasters of WSB-TV. To help celebrate the holiday season the band held their annual Christmas concert at the December PTSO meeting. The highlight of the year was the invitation to march in the Mardi Gra Parade in Mobile, Alabama. They re- ceived the honor of being the lead band in the parade. Then came the Cherry Bloosom Parade in Macon and the Rose Parade in Thomasville, Georgia. The band concluded their season with a successful first an evening outdoor concert at the school. This was truly a year that proved the members of the South- west Band were Steppin Higher Than Ever! TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT:]. Robinson and K.

Their renown reputation is the result of outstanding talent and perseverance. It is well known that the marching band works hard throughout the year, but less well known that the members of the Jazz Ensemble step and dance along with the other band members at all their performances. In addition, they played at nearly every middle and el- ementary school in the Macon area and several Southwest events. These events included the Yearbook Promotion Show, the annual Sweetheart Corona- tion, the Golden Eagle Awards cere- mony, the Christmas concert, and the Spring extravaganza. At the ABAC Jazz Festival the group received a Superior rating. Receiving Superior ratings for their solos were Algernon Glover, Lance Reid, Charlie Danielly, Emmett Bivins, and Charles Lucas.

Throughout the school year the Student Council does many activities in support of Spirit for the school, which includes the pro- duction of anything from banners for a ballgame, to activity calendars for the school.

This honor society requires a minimum grade point aver- age of 3.5 from its 122 members, and is dedicated to the bettering of its school and community. Led by Mrs. Gwen Bell and Ms. Judy Moore, along with officers Karla Nel- son - President, James Robinson - Vice- President, Carla Rhyne Secretary, and Terrance Smith Treasurer, the Southwest Beta Club has a record of service and leadership. The motto, Let us lead by serving others epit- omizes the goal the club is determined to reach. Through activities such as bringing goodies for American Educa- tion Week, making Easter baskets for a nursing home, and donating items to the Macon Rescue Mission, the club hopes to bring a change for the better to the Middle Georgia area. Another project was Military Mail Call in which 287 letters were sent to service men and 114 Beta Club A Shining Star Of Excellence. women all over the world. They also contributed $683.09 to the American Cancer Society. At the State Beta Convention in At- lanta, Karla Nelson presided as the State Beta Secretary. The group also participated in several competitions. Winning first place in the talent com- petion for their rendition of Amazing Grace, were Kim Gilbert and James Robinson. Yasmin Washington won third place in the scrapbook compe- tition. In the first ever oratorical com- petition, Terrance Smith took first place with his speech Unity Through Diversity. The final activity of the year was the annual Beta Awards Ceremony. Nu- merous awards were given to deserving Beta members, and Ms. Moore gave out her famous Beta Beagles. The event ended with a Senior Spotlight and slide show. TOP: Senior Beta Members. BOTTOM, LEFT TO RIGHT: Beta Club members (in alphabetical order by classes): Freshmen:M. Belarmino, V. Belarmino, C.

The three winners of the costume contest were: 3rd Patrick Hodges (Johnny Ap- pleseed), 2nd Lucretia Clayton iM ea | (Hariett Tubman), lst Warren Ellington Frederick Douglas. Those students who preferred not to dress up decorated posters to dis- play in the halls. The posters, much like the costumes, exuded positive effort put forth by the students to show their Patriot spirit. TOP, L-R: Ms. Yarbrough in her finest. Student teachers S.

With the prom colors, ice blue and pearl, ex- pertly hung, draped, and set floating, the auditorium definitely benefitted the proms theme as Unforgettable. Bobs Mobile Sound provided the music to which the students slammed, jammed, and, of course, swayed to throughout the night.

Senior Beta members with their stoles y a 160 Senior Honors Night Southwests #1 TOY Each year Bibb County salutes out- standing educators for a job well done. It also singles out the most dedicated to be named Teacher of the Year. Nominated by their respec- tive schools and selecetd by a com- mittee, the list of qualified teachers is narrowed down to three. This years recipient happened to be last years first runner-up and one of our own members of the Southwest faculty. A teacher since the age of 19, Ann Fugate has devoted her life to ed- ucating the adolescents of Middle Georgia. Having taught for numer- ous years at Dudley Hughes (Bibb Tech), Ballard A, McEvoy B, and Willingham B of Southwest High School, Ms. Fugates dedication to teaching is to be tremendously re- spected and admired. Those students who have had the opportunity of taking Ms. Fugates ninth grade Citizenship/ Free En- terprise/Geography (H) course can relate to the exellence of her abil- ities. Even those students who were not taught by Ms. Fugate, but are familiar with the 1992 TOY, ben- efitted from her caring nature. Ms. Fugate, better known to some as Fruitcake or Fruity, teaches the young minds at Southwest not only book knowledge but also respect, for oneself as well as for others, disci- pline, and proper grammar. If youve ever asked Ms. Fugate, Can I go to the bathroom, you know that the reply is always the same:I dont know, can you? As well as a great role model for today, Ms. Fugate proves to be an outstanding inspiration for tomor- row. An encourager of dreams and goals, Ann Fugate is the epitome of the perfect teacher no doubt de- serving her title of Bibb County Teacher of the Year! Congratulations Ms. Fugate! We Love You! 162 Teacher of the Year Soaring with Stars and Eagles Southwest has been blessed with many great minds this year, as every year. Dedicated to honoring its ex- cellent students, Southwest recog- nizes its highest SAT scorer as STAR student. This year Cindy Chapman and Felicia Taylor tied with a score of 1140. John Mathews and Trudy Norris were named by the STARs as STAR Teachers. Another top recognition of stu- dents is the Macon Telegraph's Golden Eagle awards. Bibb County students are nominated by their schools in specified areas in which they excell to be eligible for the Golden Eagle. Southwest sent eleven oustanding students to participate. These students have definitely brought honor to our school. TOP: LEFT TO RIGHT: John Mathews - STAR Teacher and Cindy Chapman STAR Student; Felicia Taylor STAR Student and Trudy Norris STAR Teacher.

Designated as Senior Week, the upcoming grad- uates were busy with a jam packed schedule: rehearsing for honors night, attending informative assem- blies, and just being wild and wacky! During the week, the Seniors were also honored with a breakfast at Shoneys and participated in Twin and Tacky/Kiddie Days. Towards the end of the week the excitement was overwhelming as the Senior Chant was heard again and again. Participation was enthusiastic as the seniors looked forward to their last week of high school. TOP: Seniors participate in the volleyball tournament.

Following an assembly in the morning, the seniors congregated in the WB lunchroom to enjoy one final feast together. Seated and served by the Junior Guides, the upper class- men munched ona meal prepared by the lunchroom staff. After the initial dining, a skit was performed by selected seniors to en- tertain their fellow classmates. De- andra Richard and Marvetta Am- mons narrated a class reunion and presented the future occupations and interests of their friends - the scenes were surprising, but could prove to be true! TOP: D.

Smith with his girls Stepping Out! As the graduation candidates ar- rived at the Coliseum, the lower lob- by grew in anticipation, nervousness, and noise level. Most faces were all smiles looking foward to their flight from high school; others were slightly tear-stained as they thought of the memories and were relunctant to let go. Led by the Junior Guides the paired line of blue gowns marched proudly in front of the audience and waited to receive their hard earned diplomas. Lashandia Griffin began the ceremony by leading the Pledge of Allegiance. Welcomed by MarVetta Ammons, the senior class grew nearer to becoming graduates. Valedictorian, Cindy Chapman, ad- dressed her classmates on the impor- tance of friends, memories, and the future. Karla Nelson followed Cindy to the podium as second speaker, Sa- lutatorian. Elected Senior speaker, Terrance Smith, also addressed the class as he spoke of family and spir- itual values. Proceeding the speakers, the Sen- ior Class was recognized by Board of Education member Don Hadaway as having met all necessary reguire- ments for graduation, and therefore becoming the 1992 Graduates of Southwest! After the closing remarks by Jody Holtzclaw, the graduates performed their Senior song, Its So Hard to Say Good-bye (To Yesterday), for the final time. Marching off of the Coliseum floor brought mixed emo- tions: excitement, fear, joy, sadness, and triumph! After the diplomas were distrib- uted, departure from the Coliseum was slow but steady as these young people stepped into the world on their own!

Selected members of the SW stu- dent body undertook the responsi- bility of producing an important pub- lication this year. The 1992 Annual Staff has once again provided the students and faculty of SW a memory book to cherish for a lifetime. The preparation for this years book be- gan before the convening of the school year. At Georgia Tech, mem- bers of the annual staff were intro- duced to layouts, croppers, gutters, and intricate computer programs tools necessary to create the year- book. Being a fairly new staff, the members still toughed it out and got the job done as they have produced the book in your hands.

Ann Fugate has been the advisor of the SW yearbook for the past seven years. Since she has taken the reigns, Southwest has produced an award winning book for the past five years. A teacher of 32 years, Ms. Fugate has dedicated a numerous amount of hours to education. However, none of the past 25 can total the enourmous amount of time and effort she spent in the past seven years devoting her time to the yearbook. Most people probably dont realize the time, energy , hardwork, and dedication necessary to produce an im- maculate book such as the SW annual. Ms. Fugates schedule began upon her arrival to school at 7 AM, and most days did not end until 5 PM. Her abilities and skills as a teacher and advisor are tremendous, so many times she has gone beyond the call of duty. Ann Fugate has left her mark on Southwest High school, and our lives. We hope that next years staff and advisor can carry out Fruitys legacy. Good luck guys, because her path i is difficult to follow and her shoes are hard to walk in. Ms. Fugate, lo the teacher we've all grown to love, who has stood by us through the good and bad times You have taught us more than book knowledge you've taught us how to work hard for what we want, no matter how tough it gets. You have been greatly appreciated throughtout the years that we have all known you! We cant say enough for our appreciation Throughout this year, kinds of times to go by! impact on our minds. We are sorry to see you go but we know deep down inside that you will never we've put up with all all of the good you will leave an attitudes, but we have As you leave, leave our hearts! Mandy * YEW) MoMo Lindsey Its Been Fun! At the closing of last year we were ap- proached with the idea of being the editors of the Spirit of 92. After a little deliberation, we decided that since the task was such a major one, and our schedules all ready de- manding, we would tackle this job together. Our school year began in August when we, Ms. Fugate, and five other staff mem- bers attended a workshop at Georgia Tech. Here is where we developed the theme and skeleton of the book. From there everything went downhill; of course, with an occasional bump, or two, or ten, suffered along the way. For example, the most dreadful was the imminent chance of not having a book be- cause of lacking funds. Ms. Fugate dug in and restricted our budget very tightly and we were allowed to produce the book but, we had a loss of color. Ms. Fugate redrew the senior section so that we could at least have the class pictures in color, everything else would have to be in black & white. Sorry Guys! Of course there were other mis- haps, for example, Diana almost broke both computers and erased the annual off of the disk, and of course Cindy was always there to fix things. Despite the bad times, we have had many great ones. As editors of the book we have learned excellent lessons of responsibility and a few other skills, for example, adding a little bull crap to copy so that it fits its designated areas and posing for pictures. We've also gotten the opportunity to meet new people and to share in the closeness of friendships that existed this past year. As the book came to a close we were extremely grateful, yet more so sad. After 3 1/2 years of being on the annual staff we were losing a major part of our lives, and we mean MA- JOR! The pressure was always intense, but we stuck it out until the very end. We are very proud of the work that we and the staff have accomplished. We wish that each of you can flip through the pages and laugh as you remember the times that you experienced this past year, as we will. It was a great experience, and we offer you this book in hopes that you cherish it and never forget the faces, people, and places. On a final note, we would like to extend our sincere gratitudes to the SW faculty who assisted us in our fundraising Thank You! To Angela, Patricia, and Mandy thank you for your support of us and our short tempers, you mean a lot to us. And especially to Ms. Fugate, thank you for al- ways being there to help us out, as you did, often, and being our friend. We love you dearly, and we'll miss you more!
