A siren screeches in the night. A woman cries for
help and hope as her baby girl, expected to die in a
matter of days from liver failure, is put into an am-
bulance. God, dont let her die. She is so young
please save her screams the woman. The
paramedic replies confidently, There is no need to
worry; Q liver donor has been found and the doctors
are waiting for your daughter

This is just one of the dramatic ways high technology
has entered and changed our lives. It has also affected
our daily lives through such commonplace advances
as instant bankers, calculators, digital watches, video
games, and even home computers. All this high
technology people tend to take for granted. After all,
somebody invents some new gadget every day

But when TIME magazine chose a machine for its
1983 Man of the Year, the world was shaken into a
startling realization: There is a new world coming
[This one] is looming on the desktop (Roger
Rosenblatt). Will this new high technology become a
tool to serve mankind and bring the good life to near-
ly everyone or will it become a villain hurtling us into a
loss of individuality? The choice is our own. It will be
what we make it, our BRAVE NEW WORLD

Ms. Goldstein, we finally have a donor whose genetic
make-up complements yours perfectly. He is a scientist from
the Pfizer, Inc. laboratory and his IQ is even twelve points
higher than yours. What a genius you will produce from this
union! Your appointment is set for three o'clock." Impossible?
Not so. The picture directly above shows Doron Blake, the sec-
ond deliberately created genius

High technology has made a genetically engineered human
race a matter of choice. What will be the choice of the future?
Whar should it be? Exciting, challenging, a little scary high
technology forces the new world it has created to answer a
few questions, solve a few problems

Are we willing to give up our privacy for the benefits of high
technology? Computers today can record how much a citizen
makes, where he lives, what he owns, whom he calls, what he
reads, and where he has been. The Videotex system, a two
way television enhancement of the telephone, television, and
computer, provides us with lazy chair shopping, banking, mail-
ing, and doing computations. However, this useful system is
joined to only one telecable, possibly indicating the loss of con-
fidentiality. Harnessed to big government, all that data could
infringe on our privacy. Are we willing to become just another
number? At birth we became 250-68-0537, in school 111 952, at
the bank 582049 618724, and the list goes on and on. Numbers
really are easier to deal with than humans. But at what point
do we lose our identity?

Never, young man, never did | feel the United States was in any
real danger. | am 114 years old. | have seen disease. The world does
not have diseases now an ancient evil. | lived through wars
another ancient evil. This world is better and getting better every
day. That is because we have guarded the rights, privileges, and
yes even the responsibilities of our great democracy

How far, how far? Yes, high technology has its good points and
some rough spots that will undoubredly be ironed out in due time
But the question still remains how much are we willing to sacrifice
n the name of high technology? We are now at the crossroads
where we must decide the extent to which we want high
technology to invade our lives. We are at the crossroads in computer
usage. How much should we allow an inanimate object to know and
reveal about our lives? We are at the crossroads with advancements
on the walkman radios and the big radio boxes. Are we going fo
become so impersonal that we bombard others privacy with loud
blaring music or are we to become so individualized that we com-
pletely shut off the world? We are at the crossroads in cloning How
far should we go into tampering with human nature. It is at this time
that we decide whether we control technology or whether it controls
US

Yes, young man, humans will never give Big Brother a chance to
peek over our shoulders. | surely do envy you young people who
will live your entire lives in an exciting, free, and challenging BRAVE

The Patriot Band

Always Excels

After foorball season, the marching
band split into a symphonic division and
a concert division. Basically, the two
bands performed for festivals and
school functions, but they also played in
a variety of spring concerts .' sa al
Mr. Hunter, who year after year con- : bon ;
sistently produces an excellent band, y WING \W / Vv, 1\, Wi = ps 3a
believes the secret of success is of. { y . | x ve a
organization; consequently, his band is . yy we - i
run by a band council consisting of band aye Vay SY 7 ; ous gi: Wp
officers and section leaders. Another of
his beliefs contributed further to the suc-
cess of the Patriot band; he stresses
making the piece musical, not just
mastering technique
The talented musicians who audi-
tioned and were chosen for the sym-
phonic band strove for perfection. Many
of the students prepared for college
music programs; others studied for per-
sonal development. In concert band,
students learned the basics of music,
developed their talents, built their skills
and became musicians.
Periodically, both bands practiced
after school aiming for a perfect rating
at the annual festival. Also during
festival season, the band participated in
the Macon Christmas Ball, the Cherry
Blossom Festival held in April, and the
Rose Parade in Thomasville. They also
participated in the University of Georgia
State Honor Band and other festivals
held throughout Georgia. Their hard
work and their desire to be the best
made the Southwest Marching Patriots
what they were SIMPLY
OUTSTANDING!

Spirit and Pride

The smiling, energetic, outgoing
young girls who ran across the foorball
field during halftime really livened the
crowd. Their flashing red uniforms with
white stars caught the attention of on-
lookers as the Star Corps danced to the
beat of the Southwest Marching Band.

The seventeen-girl Star Corps was not
chosen randomly. Over sixty girls trained
for three weeks during the summer,
learning dance and twirling routines and
rudimentals. Picking the team was dif-
ficult bacause the judges had to look for

coordination, flexibility, and ability
catch on. Given five minutes to leam
routine, the girls had to perform bef?
the judges who looked for undenia
qualities.

After the strenuous tryouts, the 9
who were chosen attended twill
camp for a week held at the Univers
of Georgia. Three new routines w
taught each day and those routint
were practiced continuously. For of
month before school, the majoref
practiced over five hours with the ban

starting their morning at 7:30 and not
concluding it until 12:30

The finished product, which they not
only marvelously performed during
halftime but also performed at com-
munity and school functions, appeared
naturally energetic and outgoing as a
result of hours of practice. Surely, its not
easy being a majorette!!

One-hundred and twenty perfectly
| tuned instruments combined with one-
hundred and twenty talented musicians,
under the direction of Mr. William

Hunter, created the sound of the 1984
Southwest Marching Patriots.

Each student devoted hours of prac-
tice a month before school opened, four
days a week during football season and
twice a week during concert season.
These musicians, together on a foorball
field, produced one of the most exciting
marching bands around.

This year's band performed for a wide
variety of listeners. During halftime at
football games, the band provided ex-
citing entertainment, including an ex-

hilarating dance routine consisting of a
chair-step march which never ceased to
gain the approval of the students. Perfor-
mances included selections ranging all
the way from Michael Jackson's hit

album, Thriller, to an entire show
devoted to country music. All in all, the
Patriot Band has the sound that is BAD!

20 Chorus

Chorus Continues
to Perform With
Excellent Results

When thinking of music at Southwest,
some students recall the exuberant
Southwest Marching Band. Another
group of talented musicians has
become actively involved not only at
Southwest but throughout the city. That
group, the Choral Music Department,
consisted of about one-hundred and for-
ty students under the head of Doris
Terry, an experienced and worthy
director who spent extra hours after
school planning and preparing for up-
coming performances.

The four choirs, the Choraliers, the

Trubadors, the Jazz Rock Choir, and the
Concert Choir performed songs frof
many periods of music. The Choraliess
made of entirely girls, sang from basic
ly all periods including show tunes ant
| Feel Pretty from Westside Story. The
all-male choir, the Trubadors, performet
barber shop music and other selection
arranged for male voices. Fame ant
other popular and secular music we
performed by the Jazz Rock Cho
whose flashy outfits correspondet
perfectly with the style of music rhe}
performed. A more reserved choir, th

Concert Choir, sang selections such as
Time is My Friend and
Prayer. Each year students are
nominated for the All-State Chorus. After
auditions, five students of the Choral
Music Department, Kim Davis, Arlene
Green, Scott Horne, Gwen Moore, and
John Richmond competed for All-State
Chorus. After making it through the first
audition, the students auditioned a se-
cond time with Arlene, Scott and John
chosen for the All-State Chorus which
was held in Savannah.

Each received a medal for his ac-

complishments. Scott was also chosen as
an alternate in music in the Governor's
Honors Program.

Practice Does

Make Perfect For

Southwest Chorus

The Choral Music Department re-
mained active throughout the year
Starting with daily practices and continu-
ing with practices until the years end,
they performed numerous concerts, in-
cluding an excellent Christmas concert
at Macon Junior College where they
sang excerpts, from Handel's Messiah
using a combination of the choirs. Often,
a single choir performed alone, such as
the Jazz Rock Choir, which performed
concerts On campus, af shopping
centers, and at elementary schools.

The chorus attended many
workshops and festivals throughout the
year. At the workshops, they learned
new music and studied basic techniques
of singing. A group went to the Universi-
ty of Georgia for a choral workshop at
the beginning of the year where they
spent a full day learning new music and,
in the evening, they performed with the
University singers. On March tenth, the
Concert Choir traveled to Central High
school for a festival which is held annual-
ly. This year they rated Excellent for
their performance of Ain't Got Time To
Die and Sing a New Song To the
Lord." When attending festivals, the
choirs are rated as a whole but this year
several soloists attended a
Solo/Ensemble Festival at Fort Valley
State College where they were rated in-
dividually, | for superior, ll for excellent,
Ill for good, and IV for fair.

To conclude such a superb year, the
Choral Music Department attended a
banquet where awards were given to
outstanding musicians of the chorus. This
year was indeed crowded with ac-
tivities which, once again, showed the
excellence of the Choral Music
Department.

For ROTC and Montage

Every doy during second and third
periods the Southwest ROTC students
ventured to Central High School to
prepare themselves for a future career
in the armed forces. Every Monday the
ROTC students prepared themselves for
inspection by Sgt. Brahman; if he found
someone the least bit out of order, the
student would get demerits (points)
taken off his average. They were grad-
ed on such things as neatness, shined
shoes, uniform appearance, and most
important, shined brass. On
Wednesdays they practiced with their

EXTRA! EXTRA!
Read All About It

This paper was not against all odds
but it did start the year with a disadvan-
fage an almost completely new
staff!

Mattie Cheatham was rhe Editor of
the staff; she brought experience and
leadership to the other staffers. ZeEster
Clyatt, Linda Wright, and Tracey
Copeland were indispensible in the
amount of work they accomplished.

The Advisor, Eleanor Taylor, gave a
short rundown of the paper from cover
to back: News We did a good job in
covering what is going on, considering
the limited staff. The writing was also ex-
ceptionally good. Editorials This
was one of our weaker sections. We did
not have as much response from the
students as we have had before.
Features | would have fo rate this
section fair. Jeff Rutherfords music col-
umn was good, and there was a lot of
variety, but writing lacked. Soorts
This was a stranger section as far as
coverage goes. With such a limited
number of papers printed per quarter,
we may wind up having an entire foot-
ball season in just one issue. There was
just too much compositing to be done.
Club News | would have to rate this
fair. With such a limited stoff it is difficult
to get to every club covered. We had
to rely on the clubs to get the informa-
tion to us. Sometimes, we would wind
up getting information through the
grapevine. | only wish clubs would do
more to help us our.

The Patri-Article received a first place
award at the GSPA. Reginald Reeves
placed first in the writing category. Mat-
tie Cheatham won the Golden Eagle
Award sponsored by the Macon
Telegraph and News, and she was also
Editor of the Teen Page. ZeEster Clyatt
was busy campaigning in her bid for
President of student GSPA, which she
won. All odds considered, the staff did
an excellent job.

Pca cada

Spirit Stick, Goofy Goblin, Homecom-
ing, Spring Fling, Orange Crush, Red
Cross Blood Drive, etc., were all made
possible by students, along with Advisor,
pulling together to support the largest
school in the nation. The group that
does all of this is, of course, the Complex
Council. This council is headed by Presi-
dent Beverly Plunkett, Vice President
Jennifer Adkins, and Advisor Betty
Stewart.

The Council started the year off by
welcoming the teachers back and get-
ting things going. In October they had a
Banana Split for the teachers, and

one eee

they seemed to enjoy making them @
much as the teachers enjoyed eatin
them. During American Education Wee!
they wrote poems and made them init
book markers. At Christmas they mad
decorated paper holders for the
teachers and sold Christmas tree cand)
canes. In November they attended the
Student Council Seminar at Clayton
Junior College in Atlanta and won the
spirit award. This workshop had variou
seminars about school spirit, as well &
creative ideas for assemblies and fun
raisers. For Homecoming, they were I

charge of the decorations and they
sponsored a dance after the game. The
council was in charge of the Spring Fling
activities which were in April. On
February 15, they visited the State
Capital where they learned more about
the procedures of government. In late
April and early May 1984, elections
were held to elect new officers for the
1984-85 school year. The council also
went to the newly reopened
Cyclorama at Grants Park in Aflanta.
Throughout the year, they spent a vast
amount of time learning about

parliamentary procedure. The class
would write essays and give speeches
to expand their knowledge of govern-
mental procedures

Before the Council could get closer to
all of the students at Southwest, they
must first become closer to each other.
To make sure that they knew everyone
in their group, they had different seating
arrangements each week. This is just
one of the many things which shows
that Southwest Complex Council really
cares that Southwest is always number
one.

Pep Is The Name;
Spirit, The Game

No matter what sports function
Southwest participated in this year, the
Pep Club members were always there
cheering them on. A prominent part of

Orange Crush Week was the annual
Central burial ceremony led by advisor
and preacher Charles Murphy.
Another big event of the club was
sponsoring the Sweetheart Coronation
held on February 14
The Pep Club sold Southwest jerseys
to raise money for their exciting trip to
New Orleans April 4-7, where they
attended a jazz concert, toured the
Louisiana Superdome, the New Orleans
Museum of Art, the wax museum, a
candy company, and the Sr. Louis
Cathedral. To end the year, the Pep
Club sponsored the All-Sports Banquet
that was held in June. The Pep Club
definitely keeps the spirit going at

United We Stand:
Beta Clubs Throughout
the South 4 Combine

During the 1983-84 school term, a
new tradition was started at Southwest
Southwest combined the four Beta
Clubs, one per building, into one gigan-
tic club. No longer could students housed
nN one building belong to Beta with a
3.0 average and those
building with a 3.5 average. Af last
every student at Southwest must abide
by the same standards, all one hundred
and members! So that
members could be included in other
clubs, meetings were held, not on club
day, but on the second Tuesday of
every month. Meeting times were

nN another

seventy-one

onthly -achers ap

of miss the same Clq

net. On regular cly
days the Beta Council, whict

every fime they
consisted g
eight Seniors four Juniors, and eigh
Sophomores, met. They discussed way
of raising money, decided on projeq
and prepared for the next club meeting
After narrowing down the project li
Elaina Evans presented the list to th.
whole club art the meeting. A
members voted and secured their pq
ticipation in the project. If a member dy
not participare in three or more project
he was suspended from the club

BETA Presidency

Betas main goal every year is to find
as many ways as possible to serve the
community. Members of Beta Club
donated money to pay for Johnny
Hidgons lunch for four months and pro-
vided Johnny and his family with
Christmas dinner. Johnny is the Spirit
Director for Southwest. A sport event
without Johnny there to help would not
be the same!

For American Education Week, which
was held in November, Beta filled all
four teacher's lounges with cakes
cookies, chips, and other homemade
treats. Refreshments were also provid-
ed the day before Christmas vacation
Also in December, personal hygiene
items were taken to the Macon Rescue
Mission to be given to abused wives
and their children

To help pay for the trip to Atlanta for
the Strate Beta Convention, members
participated in several fundraisers. Two
cake sales, one on November 22 and
the other on December 17, were held at
the Aim shopping center. Each member
baked a cake for at least one of the
sales. The next fundraiser was Tupper-
ware. All members were to sell a
minimum of fifty dollars worth. A gar-
ment bag was given to the person sell-
ing the most and a camera, to the per-
son selling the second highest amount.
Because of Gerry Robertson, the clubs
Tupperware representative, the club
ended up with a profit of over five hun-
dred dollars.

February 10 finally rolled around. At
eight o'clock in the morning, things
were pretty hectic for about eighty Beta
Club members and their advisors. It was
time to head for the Dunfey Hotel in
Atlanta for the annual Georgia Beta
Convention. February 10 through the 12
was a time when Beta members from
all over Georgia met to compete in
academic and other competitions, such
as state officer campaigns. Jada Neal, a
Junior, campaigned all day Friday with
help from fellow Beta members and
became state President. Other competi-
tions included Quiz bowl, English, math,
and science competitions and a W. C
Whitley Scholarship test. Richard Dunlap
walked away with second place in the
mathematics competition

Civitans Do It Allll!!

Civitans #1 Jekyll Island Civitans
Help People | love Civitan all of
these little sayings go hand in hand with
the Southwest Civitan Club. Led by
President Bruce Edwards and Advisors
Elmer Whitaker and Randolph Wilson,
this year's club did more projects than
ever before. Some of the projects com-
pleted this year were telephoning
mothers to participate in the March of
Dimes, working with Special Education
kids in preparation for the Special Olym-
pics, washing cars numerous fimes,
volunteering hundreds of man hours to

help reconstruct the Good News Chan
nel Seven Television Station, selling frul
cakes during the Christmas Holidays
winning first place in the Bed-A-Race
selling balloons to benefit Jerry Lewis
kids, preparing food for the Jones Cour
ty Pilot club, buying two water cooles
for Willingham B, collecting money fo
the Muscular Dystrophy, selling trast
bags with the proceeds going to the
Cerebral Palsy, and holding a Bill Boy?
Over Eighty Celebration. The club of
tended five district meetings throughou!
the year.

One of the main reasons for the
Civitan's was the club's district officers. As
Governor of the entire South Georgia
District, Paul Whitehead implemented
Monthly Newsletters, new activities, and
he even traveled to Canado to repre-
sent the District in a fund-raising project.
Others who represented us well were
Chris Freeman Lieutenant Governor
Area Six, and Norwood Wilder
Committee Chairman for the South
Georgia District. Bruce filled in several
times as Lieutenant Governor. He, along
with two Southwest Civinettes, attended

Canada's twenty-five hour Dance-A-
Thon where he raised over eight hun-
dred dollars.

The club was rewarded for its efforts
by taking a week-long trip to Jekyll
Island during April.

Civinettes Excel
In Service Projects

As one of the most active clubs on
campus, the Civinettes took on many
projects this year. To start it off, they
presented apples to teachers on the first
day of school. Then they served as
ushers for Senior Citizens at Bill Boyd's 8O
and Over Birthday Party

As the fall moved in, they showed
their appreciation at Homecoming by
giving each foorball player a bag of
candy and the coaches homemade
goods. Later, they adopted a trail at the
Ocmulgee National Monument and rais-
ed over $240 on Yellow Ribbon Day for
the mentally retarded

For Halloween projects, the Civinettes
sold tickets for the VFW Trail of Terror
and threw a party for orphans at the
Methodist home. At the end of the foot-
ball season, they provided cupcakes for
the players, coaches, and managers,
after which they gave out pamphlets to
announce the tenth anniversary of
Volunteer Macon.

During the early winter, they par-
ticipated in the second annual 6th district
Skate-a-Thon, gave teachers
refreshments for American Education
Week, and raised $168 at their first an-
nual Egg Day for muscular dystrophy. At
Christmas, they made yarn snowmen
for the teachers and provided presents
for some disadvantaged children.

With the approach of spring, Civinette
members served as volunteers at the
Macon Cherry Blossom Medical Fair
Blood Drive and collected in
neighborhoods for the Cancer Drive. As
their last project, they held the third an-
nual Womanless Beauty Pageant.
However, the two biggest projects
were the adoption of three nursing
home grandparents and a homebound
Senior, David Peacock, who they visited
several times and took gifts on holidays.

44 FHA/HERO Chapters

The four chapters of Future
Homemakers of America have con-
tributed greatly to both the school and
the Community.

In October, the FHA |, advised by Vi-
vian Hughes, made treats for children at
the Bibb Training Center. In the follow-
ing months, FHA delivered fruit baskets
for adopted grandparents at the local
convalescent homes. In February, they
held a Valentine Ball, and in March,
they sponsored a student banquet for
all who met their goals.

FHA Il, advised by Veronica Calhoun,

adopted a nursing home to show thelr
love for people less fortunate than
themselves. In February, they
decorated a nursing home with Valen
tine decorations, all handmade. FHA !
also delivered sunshine boxes to needy
families at Thanksgiving.

FHA Ill, advised by Janie Wach ance
Yippie White, conducted the Red Cros
Membership Drive, which involved
every supervision at McEvoy B. The wit
ning supervision of this annual event
received numerous awards. Their mos
helpful activity was Beautification

Week, a project that helped the school
look its best. To unify their chapter, they
also ordered jerseys.

The FHA/Hero Chapter, advised by
Norma Hutchings, gave gifts to two nurs-
ing homes and sold gingerbread houses
to the teachers for their club projects.
They also provided refreshments for the
SACs committee twice daily all three
days. In addition, they provided
creative decorations and food for facul-
'y showers and parties and sponsored
their Annual Employer-Employee
Reception.

For those of you who do not know
what the Mu Alpha Theta Club is
about, it is a group of honorary math
students who meet one night a
month to discuss math and work with
a computer. This past year the club
sponsored elementary math meets
and a city wide Mu Alpha Theta
meeting for private and public
schools that have a Mu Alpha Theta
club. The club paid the fee for the
math team in a lot of their events. It
also raised money to buy a com-
puter so that the members could
have hands-on experience using
one

The Science Club did a pretty good
job of promoting interest in science
this past year. During several of the
meetings, they had slide presenta-
tions about Nuclear Energy, NASA
and even one that showed the club
members that made science projects
how to present them. In the past,
they had had Science professors from
colleges talk to the club members
about future careers in science. The
science club also provided a
Christmas program for the children in
Bibb County's Special Education
program.

During the first three Drama Club
meetings, Carline Leonard organized
a short skit competition between the
classes. The Seniors won with a fan-
tastic play about the differences in
student personalities. Also concerned
with the aging Douglas Theater, they
donated a sizable sum of money to
get restoration under way. A real
special get together took place in
February when the club members
threw a baby shower for Caroline
Leonard, their advisor.

The Cosmetology Club is a fairly new
club that had about twenty-five
members. They showed their interest
by giving others helpful tips about their
hair and nails. The members of this club
frequently v1sited nursing homes to give
manicures and create different hair
styles for the people there. For Valen-
tines Day, they sold decorated suckers
to raise money for jerseys. Several
times a year, the cosmetology club had
guest speakers who spoke to them
about different types of hair styles and
explained to them how to do the dif-

ferent cuts. When the Cosmetolog
Department is moved into the ney

The Photography Club had about fr
ty members which is a very larg
number for a special interest club. At th:
beginning of the year, they took px
tures Of people and made view scope
which they sold to raise money for the
trip to Jekyll Island. They also tog
heart-shaped, black and whit
sweetheart pictures that turned out ven
well. On February 29, they held
fashion show for which participan

were audition. Club
members served as models and produc-

required to

tion crews. This, along with many other
things, has made the Photography Club

9 big success

Over the past two years, the Art Club
has become very active. The club
paricipated in many fund raising ac-
tivities. To raise money for the orphan's
Christmas party, they sold _ singing
telegrams. To raise money for their an-
qual trip to Savannah, they had a candy
sale. In March, the Art Club sponsored a
fiendship Day in which they sold

balloons. Early during the yeor, they
sponsored the Aflanta College of Art
High School Art Show in which several
high schools in Georgia entered their
best student work. They also gave a
Christmas party, complete with Santa
and art supplies for the children at the
Georgia Industrial Home. Every year
during the spring, they go to Savannah
to visit the college's High School Side
Walk painting contest. They designed
their own jersey logo, and toward the
end of school, they plan to design and
paint a mural in one of the buildings

CLUBS

Vocational
Groups Ignited
By Achievement

Two separate clubs working together
as one can get a lot more accomplished
than working individually. That is what
Southwest's two DECA clubs thought this
year. Myrtle Thorpe and Charles
Rogers, the club advisors, thought that
since the clubs worked well together in
the past, they should keep up the
tradition.

During October they threw two
Halloween parties, one at Peggy's Stay
and Play; the other, at the Macon
Rescue Mission for needy children. On
November 17 they placed refreshments
in the teachers lounge for American
Education Week. Their Thanksgiving
project was fixing a food basket to be
given to a needy family.

The Industrial Arts Club, headed by
Ronald Taylor and Jerry Joyner, helped
Southwest by repairing damaged items
around the school. On November 6,

they held a car wash at Precision Tune
on Pio Nono Avenue so they could raise
money to attend the state convention.
They also participated in clean-up day,
painted Willingham A's sign, and made
towel racks.

Varsity Cheerleaders

Generate Superior Season

The 1983-84 Southwest Varsity
Cheerleading Squad consisted of twelve
exceptional young ladies who have
boosted the traditional image of The
Cheerleader. All those days that they
could have been at the beach enjoying
themselves they spent two to three
hours at school practicing. At the end of
July they went to the University of
Georgia for the National Cheerleading
Association. There, working as a team
for the first time, they performed for
others. Returning home with three
superior ribbons and one excellence

Cheering is not the only skill the Vars.
fy squad has mastered. After every
game, win or lose, the cheerleade
always boosted the morale of the
Southwest Varsity Football team. At the
beginning of the football season, the
cheerleaders each picked two or three

senior players as secret pals. Throughout
the season they did special things for
them. Homebaked cakes, cards, candy
and miscellaneous knick knacks were
hidden in pockets, lockers or any place
that they were sure to be found. Bever-
ly Plunkett gave Rodney Davis a Smurf
football player, a Georgio Bulldog cup
and lots of candy, for instance. At the
end of the season the secret pals re-
vealed themselves. The signs the cheer-
leaders held up for the football players
to run through before each game
showed their artistic talents. Spending

time after school to paint signs was
even further proof of their devotion. But
again, there were no complaints.

To raise money for Cheerleading
Camp, they even had a bake sale at
K-Mart and a car wash

During basketball season, they went
on several out-of-town trips, spending
two days and one night in Florida to
play Vanguard and four days and three
nights in Albany at the Kentucky Fried
Chicken Classics. All in all the Southwest
Varsity Cheerleaders had an excellent
season.

Coming off a dismal 2-8 season last
year and a 31-7 blowout in the spring
game, Head Coach Edgar Hatcher put
the team through an especially rigorous
running and weightlifting program. On
August 26, against Mays, the offense
was tremendous, getting 305 total
yards on the night and scoring 27 points.
The defense was awesome as they
held Mays to only 45 total yards and
recorded their first shutout in several
years. When the last tick ticked, SW had
beaten Mays 27-0.

they met Washington for their home
opener September 2, because last year
Wash. beat S.W. with fake and freak
plays. When Alex Strong took the oper
ing play 72 yards for a touchdown, it
was a sign of things to come in that
game. The Patriot offense had a field
day, while the Washington defense
may as well not even have shown up
The Patriot offense was again over
powering as they piled up 341 total
yards, while the defense held
Washington to just 12 points. The final
score was S.W. 33, Wash. 12. The

Southwest Patriots had now won as
many games in two outings as it had in
the entire '82 season and were hungry
for more.

The Big Red Machine beat the Perry
Panthers on September 9, the third
straight victory of the season. When
S.W. star Junior QB Alex Strong went
down with a nagging ankle injury, the
SW fans thought it was all over, but
Sophomore Mike Smith bolted down
the game with a late drive. His 14 yard
run was the final shot as the scoreboard
read SW 21, Perry 17.

The Southwest game-winning stretch
came to an abrupt end September 16
when the nationally ranked Tift Co.
rolled over the Patriot defense, piling up
45 points. The offense of the Patriots
was not much better as they moved in-
side the 20 yard line many times but
came out empty handed.

Southwest dropped its second straight
game as the Americus Panthers beat
the Patriots 41-0. The first two times we
touched the ball, we fumbled it inside
our 20 yard line. We gave them the
game.

After missing two games with a nag-
ging ankle injury, Alex Strong made his
return to the starting lineup. Also return-
ing to Hatcher's game plan was his
famed run and gun shotgun offense
Alex and the shotgun offense were im-
mediately put to the test, since their op-
ponents last year's region
champs. The Warner Robins Demons
known for their rushing attack, rushed
for 333 yards. But it was not a total

Southwest lost to Northeast 28-21 in a
game that we should have at least tied
It was GQ good game throughout, as jt
went down to the wire. Going into the
half, the Raiders had only a 21-14 lead

thanks to the Patroit offense who took
the ball 56 yards to score just before the
half dominated the 3rd
quarter by holding the Raiders to an in-
credible 4 yards total. The game was
decided by a N.E. 80 yord 4th quarter
drive that broke the 21-21 tie. We made
two last minute drives that the Raiders
were unable to stop. It was fumbles and
a bad call that decided our game

it did not take the Baldwin Braves
long to show the Southwest masses who
was boss this year and when the final
merciful whistle had blown, the Patriots
had fallen to their sixth consecutive loss.

What more could we hove asked
from our B-team football players? They
did a super job finishing 5-1 for the year,
losing only to Central. We beat Warner
Robins and Northside in two of the
toughest games played all year. The
Northside game was definitely the most
exciting because we won it in the last
nine seconds of the game; it was fourth
down and goal to go on the five yard
line. Greg Greene took the snap and
bootlegged it around the right for the
winning touchdown. That game was a
rare occasion for us winning it in the

fourth quarter. Ironically most of our
games were won in the third quarter. In
the average game we got about eight
first downs and about four yards per
carry. Our defense held our opponents
to under 150 total yards per game.
Coaches Albert Sharpe and Eddie
Ashley were extremely pleased with
the teams overall performance, buf
there were a few players that stood
out: Kevin Bryson, running back; Greg
Greene, quarterback; Rudolph Pen-
nimon, an outstanding receiver who
came up with a few clutch catches;

Jarratt Cross, offensive guard and Milton
Cuyler, free safety. One of our biggest
weaknesses was our kicking game, but
what really bothered the coaches was
the lack of depth. Our strong point was
our defensive line.

were the smallest team in the league
they had heart, guts, and desires which
enabled them to close with a record of

Successful Season Marred

by Ineligibility Crisis

The Southwest Wrestling team ended
Q great season in a disappointing way.
They unofficially finished the season
with a 11-0 record, but because one
wrestler was a month and a half too
old, the season became an official 0-11.
Coach Dennis Gorman feels that this
mishap occurred at a bad time with the
state matches coming up, but he
stresses that the coaches and the team
had nothing at all to do with it. The
wrestlers just had to pick it up and do
the best they could. This is Coach Danny
Grubes first year coaching wrestling at

Southwest. He is knowledgeable ff
wrestling and was a big help in the
teams success. The wrestling team cot
sisted mainly of Juniors and Seniors, s
the biggest reason for the teams suc
cess was experience. Another reasof
could be attributed to the coaches set
ting such a hard schedule for the team
Several wrestlers especially stood out
Willie Watson has a lifetime record o
92 wins, 70% by pin, only 12 losses, an
1 tie. He is also the three-time Southwes
champion, finishing this year with a 24
2-1 record, and he won the Cook an

the Southwest Invitational tournaments.
He finished second in State, second in
Region, and second in Sub-Region
Virgil Ludlum finished the season with a
15-2-1 record, placed first in Cook Co
Tournament, first in Sub-Region and first
in Region. He worked extremely hard
for four years and, although he was in-
jured in state competition, he finished
second in state. Tony Butler finished the
season with a 22-7 record, came in first
in Sub-Region, second in Region, and
fourth at Southwest Tournament. His ex-
perience produced a respected

wrestler. Roderick Green finished the
season with an 18-6 record and placed
third at Southwest Tournament, second
in Sub-Region, and second in Region. He
set his goal to make the Srare Tourna-
ment and achieved it. Coach Gorman
feels this was the best season we have
ever had and we are very fortunate to
have a good B-team and junior high
program to replace those who are
graduating.

Southwest Boys Varsity Baskerball
Our Claim to Fame. Just five years ago
the Patriots were proclaimed the Na-
tional Champions of high school basket-
ball. Since then, Southwest has con-
tinuously ranked in the top ten in the
state. But wait, this year, Southwest was
confronted with a stronger 2AAAA East
Region than ever before. There were
the Baldwin Braves and the Northeast
Raiders, and now the Central Chargers
emerged as another contender
Another factor that would seem fo sug-

gest that maybe Southwest had lost an

Southwest had some trouble putting
a string of wins together. In the Ken

the Southwest faithful began to see the
Patriots play as they normally would. In
the Championship game, our big men
overpowered Kerry Hammonds to seal
a victory. With the Christmas Classic

Championship in hand, the Patriots see-

sawed through the second half of the
season. They finished the regular season
with a modest 15-7 record, 5-5 in the
tough sub-region. It was at this time, as is
a custom, that Coach Donald Richardson
had the Patriots put on their real game
shoes. Southwest had struggled through
the likes of Chris Raineys long ranges
and his pressing
defenses, the power play of Kerry Ham-
monds, and the run-and-gun Baldwin
Brave offense. But now, Southwest was

After breezing by the Northside
Eagles in the Patriots first Sub-Region
tournament game, the Southwest team
arrived at the Central gym for the much
publicized confrontation against the 18-4
Central Chargers. Twice this year, the
Chargers had beaten the Patriots. For a
while the Southwest team kept it close.
Then, turnovers began to plague the
Southwest team, and to make matters
worse, Chris Raineys jumpers could
never look better. At the half the
Patriots were down by twelve points. As
the second half started, the team began
to play better. Terry Reese and Victor

V

Grayer started to come on strong. The
team handled the pressing defenses of
Central calmly and to perfection, but
Central still maintained the lead. They
stayed in front until mid-way through
the fourth quarter when Terry puf an
eighteen foot jumper through the nets.
After that shot, Southwest never looked
back as they upset the Chargers 79-74.
Earlier that day, the Northeast Raider
upset the top-seeded Baldwin Braves,
so the Sub-Region Championship Game
was set up with the Raiders facing off
against the Patriots. Behind Kerry Ham-
monds, Northeast dealt the Southwest

team a heart breaking loss. The final
was 74-72.

In the first Region game, the high
powered Spencer of Columbus Basket-
ball team seemed to be too much for
the Patriots. Steve Grayer was not play-
ing as well as he usually does on the in-
side. Even Terrance Howard was strugg!-
ing. With five seconds left in the game,
and after clawing their way back from a
twelve point deficit, Reese put up a
jumper that tingled the twine. With one
second left in the Overtime period and
Southwest trailing by one, Steve was
fouled. Grayer used perfect rotation to

sink both free throws to clinch a much
needed victory.

The next night, with the Region
Championship on the line, the Patriots
got behind again, this time against the
Northeast Raiders. With Southwest losing
60-58, Howard put up a long jumpshot
that ended as string music. That tied the
score, and moments later, Terrance
Howard sank a short baseline jumper to
win the game and the AAAA Cham-
pionship all of these fireworks in the
final minute of the game!

Team Produces
Best Record In
Three Seasons

One has to wonder why we had such
an improvement from last year. Coach
Albert Sharpe and assistant Coach Willie
Goolsby felt that this year there were
more players that could score in all
areas. We had a very versatile team
this past year, as Opposed to last year
we had too many specialty players that
could not play other positions and were
lacking badly in outside shoots.

Coach Goolsby felt that it was great
that we finished with a 14-9 record last
year, but he was still disappointed that
because our players did not reach

a ca

down and get that little bit extra the
needed to have an even better seaso,

Our goal for next, and many seaso;
to follow, will be to find high quality be
players that are determined to Give the
extra 120 percent while on the coy
and have a great deal of self motiy,
tion and respect

The Kentucky Fried Chicken Classic }
Albany, Georgia was especially exciting
for the girls since they finished in 2ne
place. In the first game agains
Westover, we were losing all of the fi
half before coaches Sharpe ang

Goolsby decided to go fo. a man-to-man

full court press defense. It caused
Westover to make numerous turnovers
that turned into baskets for us they
just could not stand the pressure. The
lady patriots also prevailed by beating
arch rival Northeast Raiderettes. Again
we were most powerful in our man-to-
man. The biggest advantage for
Southwest was that we had people like
Chery! Woolfolk, Angela Rhymes, and
Val Coleman to come off the bench
and do an outstanding job. We lost to

Colquitt Co. in the semi-finals. Coach

Goolsby felt the girls performance was
flat that game; they were so pumped
up in the Westover-Northeast games
that they did not have anything left for
the Colquitt Co. girls

In the Sub-Regional playoffs, our first
game against Northside, Coach Goolsby
was surprised we beat them as badly as
we did. We lost a rough second game
to Baldwin which we kept close for 3
quarters, but Baldwin pulled it out in the
4th. We probably would have won with
a little more hustle

To Winning Campaign

74 Girls Varsity Basketball

Coach Sharpe took the Girls Varsity
program when they were lucky if they
won two games a season. He turned it
around to seasons like 20-5 and 22-3.
Coach Gooslby has high hopes for the
team; his goal is for the team to make it
all the way to the State. He has stated
before that he sees good things ahead
for girls basketball at Southwest.

We had five players that Coach
Sharpe and Coach Gooslby really
agreed did an outstand-ing job last
year:

Gayla Howard Gayla was a great

offensive player during last year's
season. She averaged an outstanding 18
points, and 11 rebounds a game. She
has a natural ability for the game, and
all she lacks is the basis of a good of
titude. She must tell herself she wants fo
play regardless of attitude, Gooslby
explained.

Dewanda Henry Dewandas op
ponents really had to work hard to get
around her because she was all over
the court. She averaged a very respec
table 12 points a game while also con
ing up with an average of 7 rebounds.

Dewando's biggest asset is that she is a
hard worker. She really excelled on
defense and inside play, said Goosiby.

Sharon Cliett What an offensive
plus for the team she was last season!
Sharon averaged 12 points and 7 re-
bounds a game. Sharon is a great
jumper and very aware of what is go-
INQ ON around her. When she has her
mind set to play ball, you better watch
out, said Goosiby.

Angela Hill Although Angela needs
tO work on defense a little, she is prob-
ably the soundest ballplayer on the

team. She averages about 10 points
and 6 rebouns a game. Angela has a
fine attitude, great personality, just a
really nice person, said Goosiby.

Ann Spivey Ann was a defensive
fire ball on the floor stealing the ball
about two times a game. She was also
very unselfish as she came up with 6
assists a game. | wish we could have
had twelve more players on the team
like her. Ann gave 120% every game
she played in and made the most of the
big plays. Ann never was a problem on
the Floor, bragged Gooslby.

Future Basketball

Stars Struggle Through

Junior Varsity Seasons

Have you ever seen a basketball
team that you knew had the ability to
win but was lacking something you just
could not figure out what. Well, that
was the story for our B-Team girls ex-
cept Coach Willie Goolsby knew what it
was the girls were lacking; it was that
killer instinct that you need to win, you
know, sort of like the eye of the tiger.
All in all you have to be satisfied
because it is only the B-Team and they
did have a winning record of 6-5.

A lot of credit turns toward Willie
Goolsby because the team did not
have a lot of raw talent, so Willie

Goolsby turned all of them in the righ
direction. SW should have a fine young
girls varsity squad next year. As always
there were a few people that stood oy
on the team:

Stacey Noltion For a point quar
Stacey put on an offensive showcase
When she was hot, the floor belonged
to her. Stacey averaged 20 points o
game, and 6 assists. There were two
games where she pumped in ap
unheralded 30 points leading her team
to sure victory. Stacey has the poten;
tial to be an overall outstanding
ballplayer, according to Gooslby.

Kim Bentley At 61 could you
doubt Kim was the leading rebounder
getting 44 a game. Kim has the ability
to be a great center for us. She is real in-
telligent and catches on very fast, said
Gooslby.

Kim Passmore Kim is just one big
piece of raw talent just itching to be
molded into a great forward. Kim does
not ride in her brother's style (Terry Fair,
afew years back). She has a style of her
own. Kim averaged 8 points and 8 re-
bounds a game, said Gooslby.

The B-Team boys were full of desire
to win, but not of stature. With a 510
record, you can easily point your finger

at height as our biggest problem. Our
best rebounder, Rudolph Pennimon
could only manage 6 a game. Mike
Smith was our leading man in assist with
7 a game. Brian Strong and Bernard
Sharpe pumped in an average of 10
points a game. Coach Robert Hudson
feels that the following players will help
the varsity in guard position: Darren
Ware, Eric Jackson, Brian Strong. Robert
Hudson is hoping for some more height
for next year's varsity squad.

Though the team struggled through a
rough season, Coach Don Richardson
had a way of turning things around.

Leon Dean Powers

Team to the Once

Elusive City Title

The anxiety level had risen the
score was knotted at 72 a piece. The
city championship rested in the hands of
the 4 man mile relay team consisting of
Dallas Davis, Cedric Dean, Antonio
Jones, and the last leg, Leon Dean. As
Leon headed into the home stretch, the
crowd erupted with jubilation.
Southwest had brought home the glory
that goes with the city championship, an
honor that had eluded them since 1970
fourteen long years!

The teams competing for the city title
were Southwest, Central, and Northeast.

Central was out of it in the early goings
so that left the two fierce foes to battle it
out. Everyone knows that when
Southwest and Northeast compete, the
outcome will be excitement-filled.

Throughout the season the athletes
maintained a positive attitude, which
helped them attain their 7-1 record. Con
sistency was also a major attribute
throughout the season.

We were strong in a number of areas
so that eliminated the possibility of be-
ing wiped out by other teams in their
respected events. Alex Strong, Kedrick

Bld

Pennimon, and Reginald Wilson were
naturals in the 100-200- and 440 relays.
Against every team we dominated
those events hands down. Cedric Dean,
Ernest Mintz, and Antonio Jones were
capable of winning every time in the
long jump and the triple jump. All of the
guys listed above are going to be back
next year so Southwest has a lot to look
forward to. Keith Major set a school
record in the 120 high hurdles and has
great potential for being one of the best
state hurdlers ever.

The Southwest Track team finished

second in the Bibb Co. Coca-Cola Invita-
tional Track Meet. The goal for next
year is to win, of course. Coach Willie
Goolsby sums up the season best: The
kids did a great job this year. Leon Dean
was first in the state in the 880. Ernest
Mintz was sixth in the state in the triple
jump. We have a lot of talent coming

back, and | personally (100%) think we

can win it all next year, with a LOT of
hard work and determination. | would
like to thank David Carey for the great
work he does with the kids; | couldn't do
it without him.

82 Boys and Girls Tennis

The 1983-84 Boys Tennis Team was
led by David Reiff, the team captain.
Ranking just under David, as second
best player, is Daryl Moye. Not only did
these two players do well individually,
but they were also ranked as the tennis
number one double partners. As a
whole, the entire boys team did an
outstanding job this school year. The
season got Off to a bad start with a lot of
rain and very little tennis, but after
things finally started, they achieved a 3-
O record over all the high school teams
in the city of Macon. Their strongest op-

ponent proved to be Northside Hi
School from Warner Robins, Geor
who they competed against for f
third time in the sub-region tourname
held at John Drew Smith Tennis Cent
Out of the two doubles and two sing
teams entered, David Reiff made i
the semi-finals. Tennis takes a lot of he
work, but Reiff said most players pr
tice tennis as a hobby. Although he *
Senior, he added,"'l think next year *
be a great year.

The 1983-84 girls tennis team also
well, although they suffered sof

rained out matches and soggy tennis
balls. ZeEster Clyatt received a trophy
for the most outstanding tennis player of
the season. She displayed some of her
strongest points in single matches. The
fop ranked doubles team was Allison
Ross and Dyonna Lewis. Allison's swift
style of playing and her ability to hit the
ball just at the right angle and Dyonna's
terrific backhand and her quick thinking
ability made the team of Ross and
Lewis a great combination. Tara Bryant
possessed many athletic qualities, but
Most of all, she was a very determined

player. Tara competed in both doubles
and singles matches as did all members
of the team. This year was a fairly
good year, said ZeEster Clyart, but
what was really disappointing was the
fact that out of a large high school of
3000 students, the girls tennis team con-
sisted of only four players. She con-
tinued, We felt some pressure at first
but Coach Albert Sharpe pumped us full
of high spirit. Ir turned our to be a lot of
fun and | hope that we will have more
players and a great season next year.

Statistics Confirm

A Successful Season

86 Varsity Baseball

The team worked very hard during
the preseason trying to fit players to
positions and see who could do what.
The effort paid off!

The Patriots worked up some pretty
amazing statistics during the 1984
season. For instance: Tony Butler, Joel
Leslie, Jim Veal, Kenny Shepherd, J. R.
Tucker, and Milton Cuyler all batted
over .300. A solid batting order like that
is what led to a season of averaging
almost eight points a game. Tony Butler
led the batting department with an
unheard of .444 batting average. Jim

Veal, not only a strong pitcher but a
strong hitter as well, smacked seven
homers during the course of the season
Those are some pretty nice batting
statistics, but what about fielding? Well
out of nineteen games, we held our op-
ponents to an average of only four
points a game. We shut out Baldwin
twice and Northeast once.

In pitching, Southwest had a model
year. Jim Veal pitched in twelve of the
nineteen games. Jim finished the year
with a 9-3 record and had a 2.17 earned
run average. Dean Kuznieski, as

sophomore, came up from the B-team
and started three games. His record was

24 with a team low earned run
average of 1.75. Keith Foster and Tony
Butler got the job done well as they
won three games between them and
recorded no losses.

Individual fielding standouts include
the likes of Steve Shouse who hardly let
any balls get through the gap between
second and third. J. R. Tucker had that
strong arm to power out the throws that
the average third baseman cannot
make. Joel Leslie at second and Kyle

Hobbs af first combined

graceful double plays. The infield was
anchored by catcher Kenny Shepherd.
In the outfield, the Patriots were blessed
with an abundance of speed. In leftfield,
Tony Butler displayed good range and
a strong arm. In_ rightfield, several
players got extensive playing time.
Those included were Reginald Worthy,
Keith Foster, and Shelton Bowens. In
centerfield, Milton Cuyler combined
speed, a good arm and excellent
range. All in all, the Patriots were tough!

B-team Baseball

Prevails while Golf Team

Looks Onward to Next Year

88 B-Team Baseball

Southwest B-Team Baseball did a fan-
tastic job, turning out a final season
record of 6-3. Coach Clyde Bardon felt
that this years performance was the
best experience he has ever had in
coaching any sport. The main con-
tributor to the teams success was an
overall team effort.

The whole concept of the B-Team is
to play as many boys as we possibly
can and see where they will be most ef-
fective, according to Coach Bardon. All
the players need to do is mature and
they will be a big help to the varsity.

Dean Kuznieski developed very fav
on the B-Team, so fast that he started
few of the varsity games pitching
Wendell Adkins was also a quick rise!
especially in the hitting departmen
Wendell led the team with 5 homerun
Not only did he hit and have a gooe
batting average but he pitched e
tremely well. Mike Malone was also
standout ployer, he played goo
defense and came up with some clute
hits that opened some games wid
open.

The patriot golfers went through

dilusioning 84 season of looking toward
Q win every match but coming up emp-
ty handed. The golfers knew that they
had the ability to beat their opponents
but fate failed them in the final holes.
The Southwest teams season record
finished at 1-4, but that is not really as
bad as it sounds. The four matches they
did lose were not blow aways; it came
down to the last hole almost every
time. Last year was a good season and
with a whole year's practice before
NExf season, it looks very promising.
There were four Juniors and one

fp
j

Sophomore on the team, so the way it
looks for next year is three starting
Seniors and one Junior with who knows
how many new additions on the team.

The sub-regions were especially
disappointing for the golfers because
they missed going to the regions by on-
ly 6 strokes, an extremely close margin.

David Rogers was the low medalist
for the '84 season, turning in three 79
scores. He had a_ season-ending
average of 82. Don Crumpton was close
behind David with a season-ending
average of 85.

Aggravations
Provide Challenge

Seldom is there a free moment for a
Counselor or Media Specialist.
Counselors discuss career choirce, help
students work through peer pressure
problems, provide information on
various colleges, study the records, pro-
vide each student with his graduation
requirements, and print monthly
memorandums to inform seniors of test
dates and scholarships.

Media Specialists make sure the
books are always in their proper place,
check out audiovisual equipment, show
films to classes and help students unders-
tand and use the library correctly.

Our Media Specialists have an even
greater task of keeping up with the
students who check out a book. Ruth
Eckstine, the Media Specialist at
Willimgham B, explained the lengths to
which they often have to go fo retrieve
books. Fines must also be collected and
students helped.

Changes Improve

Education

This year, a few major changes have
taken place on the Southwest campus. The
business classes moved from McEvoy B to
McEvoy A; most of the math classes were
moved to Willingham B; Jake Singleton,
the former assistant principal of McEvoy B,
moved to Willingham A; Ann Proctor
became the new assistant principal in
McEvoy B; and the Home _ Economics
Department was consolidated in the
McEvoy B building. The Home Economics
teachers felt their being brought together
was an excellent idea. They are believers
in the American family, and their purpose
is to train and prepare students for the oc-
cupation of homemaking. Now that they
have an office, they can better use the
food and clothing labs, and best of all, they
can share ideas, plan together so that one
class does not duplicate work done in
another class, and share community
resource people. One disadvantage in
moving to the Senior building is that it does
not have air conditioning. Other than that,
everybody is pleased with the changes on
the Southwest campus.

Sex Education

It's Time To

Be Informed

Sex education a very controversial
subject! Until recently, most people have
felt it was the parents responsibility to in-
form their children in this area. Statistics
argued against that opinion. In Bibb Coun-
ty alone, there were over 200 births and
over 200 abortions to teenage girls in 1982.

Finally the community and the Board of
Education agreed that sex education
should be taught in school. At Southwest,
three teachers attended seminars and
workshops held by the Board of Education
to learn how to and what fo inform the
students. Officially, this is the first year sex
education has been taught in public
schools, although it was included to a cer-
tain extent in some health classes.

Carolyn Johnson, a health teacher, ad-
mitted that teaching sex education is much
like teaching other subjects, but she feels
that because their need for information is
greater in this area, the students learn
more.

Let's Make a
Good Impression

Early in the school year, the new
teachers at Southwest acquired a
positive attitude about the students and
the total school atmosphere. When 3
they were asked how they liked exit SI
teaching at Southwest, they replied,
Wonderful, Outstanding, 'Terrific. 74)
They were especially impressed with : Mercer Univ Or
me WEXT RIGHT
the college-like atmosphere and
freedom students have at Southwest.
The new teachers think the students, as
a whole, are polite and mature.
New Southwest teachers include John
Bond, a computer specialist; Leone
Secrist, a ten year veteran math
teacher; Cynthia Dixon, an _ English
teacher who enjoys Southwest most of
all because the students are mature and
responsible. Other new teachers include
Dorothy Black, Elizabeth White, Bon-
nette Womack, Cherry Greene, Chery!
Johnson and Mary Newberry.
O.K., Southwest, let's make a good
impression. Let's show the new teachers
how good we really are!

Longevity Drives

Teachers to What?

What is Margaret Faircloth doing on
that bor with her skirt hiked up? Has
teaching finally gotten to these folks?

No, these teachers loved the idea of
an out of character shot, which shows
that teaching has kept them young,
fun-loving, and flexible.

Flexible is their main characteristic
because in their twenty-plus years, most
of which they have taught at
Southwest, they have lived through a
multitude of changes. Most of them
remember when the girls attended Class
at McEvoy and the boys at Willingham,
when the black and white high schools
integrated, when year-long courses
were broken into quarters, when
quarter courses were combined into
year-long courses, when students were
allowed to graduate early and when
that decision was reversed. Life on a
see-saw keeps you young, chuckled
Leonard Battle. And there is no better
see-saw than Southwest.

Personal Time
Worth the Effort

The first year for Debate Team has
been a_ successful Building Year."
Although debate requires endless hours
of pretournament practices and superb
self-motivation, the debators and Sherry
Taylor, their advisor, agree that the thrill
of these mental gymnastics is
worthwhile.

For the first time in twenty years,
Southwest has a 'One-Act-Play
competition team. Under the direction
of John Jones, Evie Crumbliss, and
Tonya Munderloh, seven students prac-
ticed two to three hours daily, perform-
ed The Ugly Duckling and placed
eighth out of twelve schools in a very
prestigious competition. Mr. Jones feels
it is Q good beginning and gives a lot of
hope in Southwest One-Act-Play
Competition.

This year Norma Neubold proceeded
with another Southwest first, a Science
Bowl team. She feels that the Science
Bowl is the ultimate learning ex-
perience, and is proud of the students
who gave their personal time for such a
valuable endeavor.

When clad in his camou-
flage hunting outfit and
equipped with his artillery
out in the dense forest alone
with the game, Andy Bartlett
is at home. Since the first
grade, Andy has been
crazed with hunting fever.
Under his fathers guidance,
Andy started by going bird-
hunting; now he hunts squir-
rels, rabbits and, occasional
ly, deer.

But, Andys hunting craze
goes deeper than most. No
longer does Andy consider
hunting a hobby; it has blos-
somed into a career goal.
During his Senior year, he
interned with the Game and
Fish Commission and his fu-
ture plans are to become a
wildlife technician. Andy will
never say TGIF, but the rest
of us better watch out cause
Andy is deadly in the forest.

Pamela Jordan first
became _ interested _ in
fashion and out-of-the or-
dinary clothes when she was
eleven. Somehow oar that
time, she became aware of
fashionable clothing through
television, magazines, and
fashionably dressed people.
Now she spends much free
time in preparinc her outfits
for upcoming occasions.

Pamela has participated
in fashion shows and has
taken classes in fashion and

beauty, to enhance her
knowledge of glamorous
clothes. Hopefully, this absor-
bing interest will lead to an
exciting career in the fashion
world. Whether or not her
career plans materialize,
one thing is sure: Pamela will
always look sharp.

Jacqueline Brown has been
collecting stamps for quite a
few years. When visiting
Germany in 1979, she met a
girl who gave her some. This
early interest was furthered
when her step-grandfather
gave her his collection.

By having penpals in
many different countries,
Jacqueline has been able to
get a wide variety of stamps
to add to her collection.
Many stamps were acquired
by trading with other
collectors.

Jacqueline is planning to
continue building her collec-
tion, which she will pass to
her children who she hopes
will enlarge it and continue
passing it from generation to

body physically as well as
mentally. It also provides an
excellent means of
protection.

Theodoas interest in karate
came about on his own. It
was something new that he

wanted to get involved in.
After a year of instruction at
a local karate school, his un-
cle, a captain in the Navy,
further trained him.

Theoda now spends less
time with his hobby, but its

benefits will remain. Since
he plans to enter the
military, his present interest
in karate may help him pro-
tect not just himself but us.

Over the years, guns
have been the most
popular weapons in hunting.
Bow hunting is now gaining
popularity, as Jody Pierce
can testify. Jody developed
an interest in bow hunting
when his uncle took him to
an archery range. Since that
time, he has gotten his own
archery equipment and
stays in practice by shoot-

ing af targets weekly and
by hunting.
Besides being good enter-

tainment, archery relieves
his built up frustrations and so
it makes him more capable
of handling pressures.

Heck, Who knows? Jody
Pierce may very well be on
his way to becoming our
very Own twentieth century
Robin Hood.

Most people associate
dolls with childhood, but not
Sherry Weaver. Sherry
became interested in collec-
ting dolls about a year ago
when her sister sent her a
doll from Germany

At last count, Sherry had
six dolls, two from Germany,
an adoption doll and a few
rag dolls, but her favorite is
still the first doll from Ger-
many which was a birthday
present from her sister

People may continue to
regard doll collecting as a
childhood hobby, but Sherry
enjoys collecting dolls and
plans to pursue her hobby
throughout her life. Who
knows? Sherry's great, great,
grandchildren may be rich
from selling items that she
now collects for pleasure.

Working with plants and
gardening may seem like
work to some people, but
Mary Word finds it relaxing.
When she was young, Mary
and her grandmother
worked with plants
together. Later, she and her
father planted a garden.
She thinks her love for plants
stems from these early ex-
periences. Because of the
time involved, Mary is
limited to weekend garden-
ing, bur she does take care
of her potted plants each
day.

Mary enjoys her hobby
and will continue to work
with plants. At present, she
does not know if she wants
to dedicate her whole life to
what is now just a rewarding
hobby.

Two hundred years ago, it
was not unusual for a young
person to take an interest in
classical music, but today, it
is almost unheard of. This is
not true though with
Southwest's Velma Allen,
who plays the viola, an in-
strument similar to the violin.

Velma became interested
in the viola in the ninth
grade when she saw an or-
chestral performance aft the
auditorium. She was ab-
solutely amazed at the skill
of the performers and decid-
ed to take lessons at school.

Velma now practices af
least twice a week, for
sometimes three hours af a
sitting. She hopes to continue
after graduation with her
own learning

Dancing is a hobby which

is always popular. Some
people take dancing more
seriously than others, as in
the case of Jerrie Hamm.
Jerrie became seriously in-
terested in dancing when
she was in sixth grade. She
discovered that not only is it
fun, bur it promotes health

and is good for keeping off
unwanted pounds.

Jerrie practices twice a
week and has a strict exer-
cising program that she does
before hand. As far as her
future with dancing, she is
not sure, but she plans to
continue her hobby just
because it is so enjoyable.

In Florida, Ron Henry
became interested in surfing
when a friend sold him a
surfboard. Ron now con-
siders surfing one of the finer
experiences in life. He does
not get to spend time on his
hobby anymore, living so
far from the ocean;
however, when he lived in
Florida, he hardly ever
missed a weekend.

Richard Harned fished a
lot when he was a tyke, but
just in the past four years has
he gotten really serious
about his hobby. Although
he has not had thot much
time to go fishing, Richard
still manages to keep his
tackle box dust free and
force in at least two fishing

trips a month for-fun and fn

relaxation.

David Carmon became in-

cars when he was about
twelve years old. Since then
he has built about 100
models.

David's parents can be
given the credit for influenc-
ing him in his hobby since
they gave him his first
model.

Thus far, David has built
about two or three models
a month and has spent up to
two or three hours on each.

He has entered many
model car shows, and he
recently won first place in a
show at the Macon Mall. He
also plans to join the Model
Building Club in Macon to
give him more experience
in the hobby he feels is very
important.

A tew years ago, the only
people who used the school
weight rooms were the
athletes. Now, more and
more people are crowding
into weightlifting classes and
lifting in their spare time. In-
cluded in those people is
Cedrick Myles.

Cedrick became _ in-
terested in weightlifting
because he felt out of
shape. He was encouraged
to keep it up when he
became involved in school
sports. Now he lifts regularly
every other day fo
strengthen his legs, arms,
chest, and back muscles.

Even though he is not
playing sports now, Cedrick
lifts to get ready for the
Navy. So watch out Arnold
Schwnagger; here comes
Cedrick Myles!

Life As A Senior

Well, if this isn't the pitts! I've only
been out of school two weeks and they
already want me back. Sure I'm glad to
be a Senior, bur | love my summer
vacations. | guess | shouldn't be
complaining since these are my Senior
pictures, but | hate getting up before
1:00. Theres Larry Naylor over there
taking Kim Boston's picture. He sure is a
clown always moking funny faces
and cracking jokes. But when it comes
to pictures, hes the best! In fact
everybody at Southeastern Portaits is!
You can't find better picture quality or
prices anywhere around. | guess thats
why Southwest uses them we
deserve the best! For information
concerning special school portrait
services, proms, sports, family portrait
promotions, weddings or any type of
commercial photography, call their
home office 1-404-363-3342 or write to
917 Main Street, Forest Park, Georgia
30050. My goodness, it's already my
turn. Larrys walking towards me with
that big grin on his face so hes got to be
up to something. Take my advice,
never turn your back on a smiling
photographer

Here comes Lori Alliston, the girl that
the poem | copied yesterday was
dedicated to.

It's a wonderful day to remember

All the fun and the laughter we've shared
All the times thot we've turned to each orher
When we needed somebody who cared.

It's Q wonderful day to remember

The kind deeds you frequently do.

All the warm words that you've always spoken
All the wonderful things about you:

Congratulations! Love always, Anita

Reggie Marquis Bells family thought
it would be nice to congratulate him in
an extra special way that would last a
lifetime! Congratulations and best
wishes from the Bell and Stephens
families.

After | had my picture taken, | went
over to Rutherford Trophies, located at
4313 Pio Nono Avenue, to pick out one
of their many plaques for my best
friend. Well, | never Thought I'd find
Veronica Randolph and Mary Hall in
there buying plaques and trophies.

My best friend and | decided that
since we had to get up early we might
as well make a day of if. First we
wanted to stop by Western Steer,
located at 4740 Log Cabin Drive for a

steak and one of their salads. Mark ot. ; Sey . PORTRAITS, INC.

During the next couple of hours we
decided to plan for some of the events
that would take place after school
started. First of all we went looking for
our graduation presents. Where else
would we look besides Macon Chrysler
Plymouth located at 2110 Eisenhower
Parkway. Bobby Woolfolk and Quinton
Mims couldn't decide which car to test
drive because of the large selection

We found John Finney locked out of
his car so we called Holland's Locksmith
located at 348 Cotton Avenue, to get a
new set of keys. B. F. Holland, the
owner, is always ready to help

Gosh! Can you believe who | ran into
at Fact Finders Company? Lita Ussery!
Fact Finders is a specialist in retail theft
but they also give pre-employment
screening like Lita was taking. Fact
Fidners is located at 850 Mulberry Street
in Suite 104. Doesn't it sound exciting

Tommy Tinsley and | seem to have
the same opinion about this world at
times. Sometimes life does seem like it's
for the dogs. You can find the sturdy
dog house hes in at Macon Feed and
Seed at 2055 Eisenhower Parkway

| needed some extra money for my
car so | sold my gold watch. There isn't a
better place to sell gold or silver than
Olde London Gold and Silver at 1345
Hardeman Avenue. When | walked in,
Cary Adams was showing Lynette
Danielly a grandfather clock

The money | got from my watch
turned my old raggedy car into one
that looks almost brand new inside. All |
did was take it to W. H. Shadburn at 572
Concord Street. When | picked up my
car Alan Johnson was picking out the
material for the interior of his car

After | got my car ready for the
weekend, | had to take my favorite out-
fit to Milday Cleaners, located at 894
F College Street, to have it cleaned. |

Vangie Brantley and Peggy Hooker

Saturday my boyfriend and | are go-
ing on a picnic at Washington Park. On

there all the time and told me if | ever
needed anything they would hove it.

| heard there was a job opening at
Charter Medical Corporation so | decid-
ed to stop by and get an application. It
surprised me when | had to go up fo the
eleventh floor. When | got up there, |
found Leanne Holloway telling Ken
Mullis and Ricky Johnson about the cor-
poration and how it works. Charter
Medical, located at 577 Mulberry Street
is the only major hospital management
headquartered in Georgia. It has seven
facilities in its home state dedicated to
high standards of patient care. These
seven hospitals are divided into three
types: psychiatric, general acute care,
and an addictive disease center

My mom met me at Morrison's at the
Mall for lunch and then we went to look
for a pattern for my Junior-Senior Prom
dress. When we got there | saw Everett
Henderson. He eats there all the time
and suggested we try their broiled fish
and butterbeans. He was right.

Mom took me by Hancock's Fabric at
the Summit Center first because they
always have such a good selection and
low prices. Tracey Carroll was there : a rT
looking for some material for her i S .

mother to make a suit out of. There is

also a Hancock's at 706 North Houston in

} al
Warner Robins. CHARTER MEDICAL CORPORATION

Before | took Mom home she wanted
me to run in Rocky Creek Foods at 2595
Rocky Creek Road and pick up a loof of
bread. Phil Hefner almost ran into me
because he couldn't see through all the
snacks he had in his arms.

Susan Edmonds and Audrey Jackson
stopped by and showed me all the
sweaters they bought from Belk Moat-
thews. Belks carries all the latest styles in
sweaters and jeans. Next paycheck will
be spent at Belk Matthews buying me a
new school wardrobe!

Whenever | run out of gas, | always : ; :
stop by Glo Foods and fill up. Glo Foods, my | J it fh

only sells gas but they also sell all types ;
of groceries and school supplies. In fact
you can find almost anything you need.

Natalie Wimberly was filling her car up
when | stopped by yesterday.

Sunday Im going to church at Sr.
Joseph's Catholic Church at 830 Poplar
Street. They hold mass on Sundays at
8:00 A.M., 9:30 A.M., 11:45 A.M., and
6:00 P.M. The Pastor is Reverend John
Cuddy.

Next stop was H and H Restaurant

we could eat together.

My mom made me an appointment
at Macon Vision Clinic at 646 Cherry

me out of his office with new glasses

After leaving the eye doctor, my

enjoying their pizza when we arrived.
Now that they deliver, | can enjoy
Shakeys pizza without leaving the
house.

David Walker and | wanted to see
what Creative Chef had. When we
walked in, Andressa Brown was picking
out a cake pan to use in her cake
decorating class. They teach so many
different classes that it's difficult to
decide which one to take. | decided to
sign up for candy making. Creative Chef
is located at 3755 Bloomfield Drive in

The next day | had to take David
Walker to Fantastic Sams for a hair cut.
David doesn't trust anyone else with his
hair because they do such a good job.
Fantastic Sams is located at 3755 Bloom-

James Edward Lowe, Jr. asked me to
congratulate his cousins that are
graduating with the Class of '84.

When | finally got home | was hot

no time before calling Eugene
Whitehead, owner of Whitehead and

man can fix it!!'" Whitehead and com-
pany is located at 6800 Lower

While the air conditioner was getting
fixed, | went to Powell's Pharmacy and
bought some suntan lotion for my next
day at the beach. | would have never
noticed the sale on make-up if it hadn't
been for Natalie Wimberly.

| didnt want to go back home so |
stopped by Lisa Wade's house. She was
waiting for her mother to take her to
Tutt's Barber Shop at 2791 Montpelier
Road so she could get her hair fixed.

Next | went home and found Mom
crawling the walls. One little bug and
she decided to call Larrys Pest Service

Juniors 177

Junior interests vary from one fo the other.

Accompanying the varying personalities of in-
dividuals attending Southwest is a wide range of in-
terests for both boys and girls. Although the interests
may differ from person to person, as a whole, teens
share common leisure activities such as music and
dancing or talking on the telephone.

On weekends and throughout the week, tons of
young people pour into weight rooms and spas try-
ing to keep in good physical condition. Besides
working-out, students enjoy participating in sports
affiliated with the school or on their own. Swim-
ming, volleyball, frisbee, and skiing are just a few
examples of fun at the lake. Orhers are satisfied

176 Juniors

with skating for fun and exercise or perhaps bowl-
ing with a few friends at one of the local alleys. It
also is not unusual to see friends jogging or biking in
the evenings.

Guys seem to get into working on cars or other
mechanical devices opposed to girls who are
reputed to love to shop. Whatever their interests
may be, the teens are united through their in-
dividualities and their similarities in weekend and
leisure activities.

That first job: a step closer to adulthood.

It all started with a phone call the one you
had waited and hoped for. Excitement, elation,
and joy were the first emotions you felt; then came
the nervousness and worry. What shall | wear? |
don't want to look too dressed up!" Finally, you ran
out the door hoping you would be a success.

All day the big man looked you dead in the
eyes watching, evaluating. How am | going to
get through this!" you wondered? But you did get
through it. Your nervousness was unnoticed; the
fear, not apparent. The next day you received a
second call one confirming your hopes, starting
new dreams.

Many Juniors had similar experiences last year,
getting their first job. It was an exciting and impor-
tant moment, one that opened new doors and op-
portunities. Perhaps it was not a job that command-
ed tremendous skill, maybe it was not a job that
led to the solving of world hunger, but it was a job
a step out into the world of money, labor, and
responsibility. It was the first major part of the transi-
tion from a teenager to a young adult; from
dependence to independence.

love... Edgar Allen Poe

How intense a feeling love is when experienced
to its fullest heights and depths! The fear and an-
ticipation of that long awaited first date is past
history for the worldly Junior. He has searched for
that perfect someone by dating many fun-loving
classmates. Often, even at this tender age, the love
bug bites.

Love is often considered for adults only, like an
x-rated movie and when felt by teens, referred to
as puppy love. Yet, the deep emotion among high
school students cannot be regarded lightly. Is it not

Juniors! Is this love or just infatuation?

But we loved with a love that was more than

possible for teens to experience the love that Poe
wrote of? Kim Parker, a Junior at Southwest, seems
to think so. She feels that for Juniors, love begins as
a friendship. Then it progresses to puppy love. But
with each passing day, it matures and grows into
the intense passion of an adult love. The adult love,
felt at 16 or at 25, all started the same way: as pup-
py love. All agreed that love, regardless of the age
experienced, deepens with time.

A craze hits make room for bowling shoes!

Thank God It's Friday!! After a long week of
school, homework, and tests, this popular expres-
sion became a battle cry. The students rushed from
the classrooms, ran to their cars or bus, and upon
reaching home, began dreaming and planning the
short weekend ahead.

But what is there to do on a Friday or Saturday
night besides go to the movies, Out to eat, or just
ride around with friends? Many students discovered
a thrilling alternative bowling! Fun, exciting, and
relaxing was the way Gloria Redmond described
bowling. Scott Cumbie likes bowling because it is for
everyone whether big or small, young or old, short

4190 Juniors

or tall. Missy Menchew said even though she could
not bowl well, she loved to hang out at the bowl-
ing alley with her friends and meet new people.
There is only one time bowling is the pits: when the
ball zooms not down the alley but
backwards, crashing into the chairs and tables in the
snack area. The second time that happens, it is time
to find another weekend activity. For most
Southwest students, the bowling craze has hit!

What did you say was in your locker? A Mello-

it's for emergencies? What else do you have in
there? It may be growing ih

When glancing through lockers, it is quite normal
to find wads of paper thrown upon a pile of books
and folders crammed into a dull, gray locker. It is
also just as normal to find lockers resembling a
home away from home," decorated with a
multitude of pictures and other personal items from
home to give the locker a "lived in look.

When scrounging through the junk, one may
discover a misplaced shoe, an over-due library

book, a current Rock and Soul magazine, or
breakfast from a few months back that was saved
for another day. To brighten the scene, it is com-
mon to find one of the popular male stripper calen-
dars Or a poster of a punk rock group. After spend-
ing the night with friends, it may be convenient to
bring a change of clothes to school and what better
place to keep them than in a locker? It is a pity they
do not make lockers bigger!

From there | picked up Paige Tucker
and Beverly Butler and took them to Ed

could buy one of their friends a tag for

because there was a wide selection of
colors and styles. There's no telling

Since | run all my mom's errands, she
opened a checking account for me af

Georgia at P.O. Drawer 927.

After school | had to stop by Powell's

and Missy Turner were buying vitamins.
With winter right around the corner,
they decided that they needed to

Next on my list was to stop by Macon
Custom Signs at 895 Third Street and find
a sign for my dad's store. Raul Amansac
went with me, but instead of helping
me, he wandered over to the truck.

After such a long and busy day, Mom

idea my mom has ever had. When |

Thank God for Fridays! By the end of
the week | needed a rest. But before |
could relax | had to run a few more er-
rands for everyone.
To start the day off | had to drop my
bike off at Bibb Bike Shop at 3255
Houston Avenue for repairs. Jacob
Robinson was also on his way there.
After school Carol Miller needed to
go by the Free Methodist Church at
3220 Napier Avenue so she could prac-
tice the hymns for the next service. Sun-
day school begins at 9:45 A.M. The mor-
ning service begins at 11:00 A.M. and
the evening service begins at 6:00 P.M.
Bill Miller is the Pastor.
While Carol was practicing | went out
to eat with Ouida Sanders at the Orien-
tal Palace, which is located at 717 River-
side Drive. Their chefs prepare and cook
at your table. It was very interesting to
watch. Monday through Friday they
serve lunch from 11:00 A.M. till 2:30 P.M.

ls It JUst a Strong Feeling, or Is It Love?

Of the many different views on love, all agreed
it is a strong feeling between two people who care
for one another. To Kim Duggan, love is a friend
who is always there and who cares. Love makes
her feel special as it does all of us.

But where does love begin? Most girls noticed
guys for the way they treated them, but the guys
seemed to look for faces and figures. Everyone
looked for a good personality.

Vernell Watts was attracted to James Marshall
because of his fine figure and personality. Since
their meeting at a Ballard B dance, she has found
herself attracted to him because of his politeness.

208 Sophomores

Vernell also likes the way James carries himself in a
respectful way. Almost everyone agreed that love
is forgiving and forgetting, caring and sharing.

No matter how love started, it always led to a
bond between the two who could share things no
others could share, who were honest with each
other, and who could cry as well as laugh together.
Thar is Sophomore love.

Sophomores Express Opinions on "'Pet Peeves

| can't stand people who act like they know
everything because nobody knows everything,
says Sophomore Sean Harris. Another especially ir-
ritating pet peeve is the person who chews with his
mouth full of food and displays it to others at the
table who are also trying to eat.

Those of you out there who are caught up in
smoking need to take into consideration that there
are other folks who cannot handle the smell. There
are also people who think swearing is unchristian
and would prefer not to be exposed to some peo-
ples perverted language.

To all of you who love to watch your pals cringe

212 Sophomores

as you rake your fingernails down the chalkboard,
there are many of us with sensitive ears who wish
you would cut if out!

Va-ley talk may be a big fad but, believe it or
not, some despise punk and especially valley
talk. It, like, totally bugs them!

Many opinions have been expressed and you
may choose to adhere to them but, as the old say-
ing goes, To each his own!

stuck to your shoe! Gene Bowers enjoys toying with people's

A New Program at Southwest Gets on the Move

There was a new program added to Southwest in
the 1983-84 school year. The Magner Program
which was instituted several years ago, grew into
the Magnet Program in all three Senior Highs, in-
volving sixty Sophomores at Southwest.

This year, each magnet Sophomore was required
to take a computer course led by Dr. John A. Bond,
Qa computer specialist. From there, they chose to
take world history from Dinah Brown, Biology from
James Hinson, Richard Merchant or Dorothy
Welborn, and English from Cynthia Carey, Eleanor
Taylor or Anne Wilkinson.

The. magnet sophomores

classes remained

216 Sophomores

basically the same as other Sophomore classes.
They were held in the same rooms, the students
were taught the same material, and they received
the same credits. But, once a week on a particular
day, each class relocated to Willingham A where
they were instructed by Dr. Bond and were allow-
ed to use the computers. The new program was
definitely an asset to Southwest.

TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT: Dr. John Bond demonstrates a procedure on
one of the computers. Mr. Everest really is the tallest mountain in
the world according to Cathy Kerstetter and Darius Holt. MIDDLE
Pam Thrasher points out Sarjevo, Yugoslavia, the site of the 1984
Winter Olympics, to magnet students John Stieber, Clay Tucker,

Students Have Strong Views on Peer Pressure

C'mon, you can try it just this one time! Most
Sophomores have heard that statement before
and the fact is that over forty-seven percent of all
teens are believed to be involved in drinking and
drugs because of peer influence. Although that is
not what peer pressure is all about just drinking
and drugs many people are pressured into
groups, while others try to be an individual. On the
other hand, peer pressure sometimes encourages

220 Sophomores

teens to strive for good grades and athletic awards.
Most teenagers have learned to make peer
pressure work to their benefit so that they get high
on life not on drugs.

TOP, LEFT TO RIGHT: Some teens still think it is cool to smoke!
Often people choose their dress by the crowd they wish to be in.
MIDDLE: Many teens face their problems with a friend and turn
their backs on peer pressure.

The first day of school must have been
frightening but oh, so exciting! With a stu-
dent body of three thousand, four cam-
puses, and a multitude of new teachers,
the Sophomores of 84 discovered high
school was non-comparable to junior high.
But soon, the first week went by, the first
quarter, then Christmas holidays. Winter
faded and spring arrived. Finally, the last
quarter approached, the last month, the
last day. Hour by hour passed finally, so
slowly. The anticipation of the oncoming
summer vacation dissolved to a dread.
Why did the year go by so quickly?

| never thought that | would run into oars
Mr. Murphy during the summer. We ,
started talking about all the crazy things
that the Pep Club has done and all the
things that they did to help the school.
One of the most important things they
did was provide transportation for the
students to out-of-town games. This way
the students that did not have a way to
the game got there and our team had
a tremendous cheering section. Each
year Mr. Murphy and the Pep Club
members get together and plan the an-
nual Sweetheart Coronation. Decora-
tions, the agenda, and practices were
organized by the club. With such good gg Mth west comes f
planning, the programs always run
smoothly. At the end of the school year,
the top athletes from Northeast and
Central met with Southwest's best
players for the All Sports Banquet. They
had supper and then the awards were
given out. To pay for all of their ac
tivities, club members pulled together
and sold skating tickets, spirit hands, and
many other things. Mr. Murphy is very
proud of his club!

On my way downtown to pick up
some film at Coke's Camera Center,
located at 735 Cherry Street, | saw Amy
Borders standing outside waiting for her
ride. She dropped her camera on vaca-
tion and wanted to get it fixed. Cokes is
the only place to trust with your
photographic needs.

Someone had scratched up his paint job

that he take it to Mears of Macon on

Mom's birthday is next week and dad
wanted me to pick out a ring for her at

Tobesofkee Recreational Area is such
a beautiful place. In the summer you
can swim, have picnics or almost
anything you can think of. | remember
last fall | saw Tracy Baird out there study-
ing on one of the benches. It's so pretty
and peaceful our there thot a person
could live in any one of its four parks

But school had fo start back and all
the homework started piling up. There
are some nice things about school like
the Sophomore dance. Sophia Hughes
and | went over to Formal Affair on
Vineville Avenue, located behind Carl
Hayes, and picked out our dresses. They
have all the latest styles and they are
priced very reasonably

My boyfriend's bouronniere came
from A Flower Cart located at 3910
Vineville Avenue. Mrs. Chapman can
match flowers better than anybody so it
looked great! There is no end to her
talent! Anthony Harvey and Gene
Stevens enjoyed looking around while
waiting

With a job and all, | needed to have
a banking account so | opened one at
Trust Company Bank. They have twelve
convenient offices in Macon. Dawn Sax-
ton had the same idea, except she was
opening a checking account

Dad wanted to put some cross-ties in
the front yard to make it look better
The only place we could find them was
Southern Wood Piedmont at 3210 Roff
Avenue. They were heavy so Dad got
my friend Jody Kersey to go along

My next door neighbor rather sud-
denly decided to move. Carroll's Mov-
ing and Storage was the only place that
she would trust. Her sonss friend, Stacey
Fuller, helped out by driving the truck. It
was a lot of fun moving all her stuff
across town. Im going to miss her, but it
isn't like shes moving out of state, just
thirry minutes away.

The only bank really close to her new
house is Georgia Bank, so she also had
fo move her checking account. She
didn't really mind since they have a
twenty-four hour teller and the one by
her house is open on Saturday. Cedric
Alexander was there depositing some
money for his grandmother who lives
on Shurling Drive.

We needed a lor of ice for her house-
warming party so we went to Ballard
Brothers Ice Company at 1396 Broad-
way and picked up several bags. Fran-
cine Walker, Donna Williams and Brad
English were picking up the ice for the
party they were throwing for a friend

Actually, | did not enjoy waking aft the
crack of dawn on a Saturday, bur | had
to. My first stop was Central Bank whose
main office is at 455 Walnut Street. Col-
lege days are approaching so | thought it
was time to open a savings account. It
appears that Lisa Barfield also had the
same idea as she seeks help from her
Central Bank family: Yvonne, Teresa,
and Janice.

Next on my agenda for the day was
DID Computer Specialist at 152 New
Street. DID has quality desktop computers
which was what | was looking for. DID of-
fers complete training, micros, and minus
turnkey systems. Also interested in com-

puters, Natasha Bergmann was making a

careful scan of the different choices
before making a final decision

Before moving on, | dropped by
Kennedy Drugs to pick up some medicine
for my mother. While looking af
cosmetics, | noticed Scott Davis and Oscar
Mark reading a magazine. The registered
pharmacist on duty was most informative
about the prescription | had just received
Kennedy Drugs is located at 473 Third

Street
Since Dad has been talking of

redecorating our kitchen, | drove to
Carliss Burnette Cabinet Shop at 2806 Lilla
Calhoun Drive in Lizella to get some
ideas. After talking to Kathy Jones who
had recently bought cabinets from Carliss
Burnette, | decided to inform Dad where
to look.

After running around town all day, |
was exhausted, but | needed some gas
What better place to stop than Fullwood
Shell Service Station at 3198 Mercer
University Boulevard. Johnny Lane was
supervising while the attendant pumped
for him

Lately | have been noticing an unusual
bump when | am driving. While not very
experienced with cars, | figured that it
was probably a tire. So | went to Tires Plus
ot 753 Broadway to have it checked. As | F CARLISS

pulled in, Jimmy Kearney was receiving , : BURNETTE

guidance from Kenny on what type of

tire to purchase . CABINET

By now | was extrenpely thirsty so | ! SHOP
pulled over to get a Coke. Not knowing it y

was a talking Coke machine, | was literal-
ly stunned. After receiving instructions to
insert my money, Philip Bass walked by
and stopped at the Coke machine a little
further down. He laughed when he notic-
ed that | had used the machine that talks
to you

While | was at home freshening up, |
reflected on that great spirited day in
which our class really came together. Our
signs said things ranging from Super
Sophomores and The Sophs Have
More, really set off the occasion.

Yesterday | dropped Wanda Rice
off at Beautyland, located at 315
Third Street, for her permanent. Since
then, nobody can find her. She's
always in the bathroom making sure
her hair is in place. They did a great
job! They also specialize in skin care,
cold waves, and precision curls.

When we finally found Wanda,
we also found Tracy Thomas brushing
her teeth. She assured us that she
was not going crazy by explaining
about her dental appointment with
Dr. Robert Mattox at 2440 Ingleside
Avenue. :

On the way to fourth period Karen GEORGIA
Stone asked me to drop her off at
the Georgia Dermatology Clinic at BEAUTYLAND DERMATOLOGY
700 Spring Street after school. She is
always complaining about a rash, so
her mother made her an
appointment.

After Karen and | finished talking, |
noticed Garth Claeys sitting in the
lobby. His mom's picking him up to
take him out to Wheeler Manufactur-
ing, located at 2889 Waterville Road,
for a job interview. He heard that the
management was extremely friend-
ly and decided that it would be nice
to work there.

Darius Holt uses lots and lots of
paper for homework and classwork.
That's why his mom buys him Mead
paper. They are reasonably priced
products and you can find them
almost anywhere. Mead is located at
2050 Industrial Park Road.

Sixth period is over and it's time to
go finally. After | drop Karen off,
I'm going home and take a long
nap.

Vocational Building Expands Opportunities

One of the most exciting events that oc-
cured this year was the construction of the
new Vocational Building. Included in its shining
interior will be fifteen programs: Ariculture
Cosmetology, Construction, two Diversified
Cooperative Training (DCT) programs, Draft-
ing, Electro-Mechanics, Electronics, Food Ser-
vice, Horticulture, two Marketing and
Distributive Education (MDE) programs, Metal
Working, Transportation, and Related Voca-
tional Instruction (R. V.1.)

The ground breaking of the new $2.5
million dollar vocational secondary school
was held on Monday, November 22, 1982
Architect Oscar L.Harris believes the
greenhouse is one of the most exciting parts
of the building. It provides a focal point for the
whole layout of the school, and also provides
a heat gain in the winter months to reduce

the heating costs. The Cosmetology area is
laid out like a beauty salon with a reception
counter and chairs. It will soon be open to the
public, as will the auto-mechanic department.

Turner Associates/Architects and Planners,
Inc., designed the second floor galleries so
that they overlook the various shop areas. In
fact, the whole facility is designed so that one
can easily observe throughout the building.

Ironically, Southwest has outgrown it before
the first class entered. Both the Business and
the Home Economics departments will,
therefore, remain in the general curriculum.

The facility was designed to unify the four-
building campus and when its doors finally
open in the fall of 84, the entire campus will
benefit. The long-promised central bell will
eliminate late-to-class problems once and for
all. HURRAY! HURRAY! HURRAY!

COMPREHENSIVE COURSES

This Complicated Society Requires a Comprehensive Education

Reading Rithmetic These
three were previously known as the basics of
education, but now, in the year 1984, these
basics have been expanded. The courses be-
ing offered in schools today are unlimited
Young people are being given the chance to
learn everything from cooking a gourmet
meal to styling someone's hair, plus the
basics. Why all the different courses? Because
they help students in preparing for careers
experiencing new ideas, and even gaining a
better understanding of themselves

The demand for people with skills in the
vocational areas such as Business Education
Auto Mechanics, Industrial Arts, Construction
Cosmetology, and Drafting is steadily rising
Therefore, more high school courses are of-
fered in these areas. After completing two to
four years of high school study, a student can
usually get a good job without a college
education. However, if the student wishes to

Writing and

go further into his field, schools like Macon
Tech are great for higher training.

Of course the academics are still high on
the list of importance, as a good academic
background is still the greatest requirement

when seeking employment. The basics are
still pushed, but there is a greater variety

Take, for the English and Social
Studies departments. Courses such
Mankind Relations, World Religions
Black American Literature, and Drama are
becoming more and more popular. They
allow students to better understand the over-
whelming world they live in and suggest a
way fo cope with it. Years ago, school gave
no preparation for the world students had to
face or what they would do after school
Now, most graduates at least know whether
or not they will attend college or go straight
to work

Not only do these courses help students dur-
ing school hours, but some even take them in-
to the world to get actual experience

One class which has done this is the World
Religions class taught by Evie Crumbliss.
Throughout the year, groups of her students
took several field trips to Monasteries
cemeteries, and churches of different
denominations. Through these visits, the
students realized the differences in beliefs,
and a lot of their confusions were cleared up

The only problem now is getting more

there will be no limits to how diverse
Southwest can become through use of the
many courses offered. An added incentive

BASIC SKILLS TEST

Torture vs. Gaiety

It's a Matter of

Proper Perspective

Hmmm . .. If Jane had three dollars, and
$1.25 of it was in quarters, how many dimes
and nickels would she have? For three
straight days, September 27-29, Sophomore
classes mustered through the Basic Skills Test
and questions similar to the previous one. In
between straining their brains, the
Sophomores probably daydreamed about all
the fun the Seniors and Juniors were having.

On Tuesday, the Seniors resembled the
Sophomores as they took the Armed Services
Vocational Aptitude Battery Test (ASVAB). For
three hours, the Seniors sat in either the gym
or the cafeteria and labored through simple
arithmetic, vocabulary, counting, general
science, mechanics, and electrical sciences. At
the same time, the Juniors made important
decisions about colors, sizes, etc. of their tradi-
tional Senior rings ordered from the also tradi-
tional Balfour Company

On Wednesday, the Seniors skipped school
legally! Over 750 upperclassmen strolled
through a peaceful neighborhood on their
way to the Wesrgate Theater where they
saw either Mr. Mom or Tootsie. Both
movies proved to be just as hilarious as ex-
pected and were thoroughly enjoyed. Also
on Wednesday, the Juniors brooded over the
ASVAB, while the Sophomores continued to
miss all the fun and struggled with participles
and square roots.

On Thursday, the Seniors as well as the
Juniors sat back and enjoyed a student council
sponsored talent show. Many variations of
talent including dancing, singing, violin play-
ing, and even a humorous short skit were per-
formed by a few of our talented students.
Meanwhile, the Sophomores remained in
good spirits by imagining all the fun the
Juniors and Seniors were having and by
knowing that it was their final day of testing!

GOOFY GOBLIN AND HOMECOMING

School Spirit Ignited By Outstanding

Goofy Goblin and Homecoming Activities

Homecoming 83 What a Feeling!
There couldn't have been a more ap-
propriate theme for one of the best
Homecomings ever

During first period on Friday, September
23rd, a pep rally ignited spirit in the student
body for the big game. The students yelled
and cheered as the cheerleaders led them
Afterwards, the Homecoming nominees par-
ticipated in a short skit which viewed the
changes in cheerleaders over the years and
Coach Hatcher said a few encouraging words
about our varsity foorball ream

Tenseness was felt everywhere that night
as the football team struggled to win the
game and the Homecoming nominees sat on
edge. Finally the moment arrived. The band
played, the nominees paraded across the
field, and the Homecoming Queen and Mr.
Southwest for 1983, Christie Tucker and Kenny
Shepherd, were proudly announced. Due to
unavoidable circumstances, the title of
Homecoming Queen was later awarded to
the first runner-up, Beverly Plunkett.

During the week of October 24th-26th,
Southwest conducted its annual Goofy Goblin
activities. Each morning, the Goofy Goblins
from each class picked up their pumpkins and,
throughout the day, collected money from
students.

The Senior Goofy Goblins, Paul Whitehead,
Bevery Plunkett, Joe Rozier, Christie Tucker,

246 Goofy Goblin and Homecoming

Tim Stenson, Kenny Shepherd, Brigitte Davis,
and Candy Lucas collected $217.52 with Paul
collecting the most, out of not just the Seniors,
but all the Goofy Goblins. The Seniors per-
formed a skit as fairy tale characters seeking
the definition of spirit. At the end, the Real
Wayne appeared and showed them the
real meaning.

$107.59 was collected by the Junior Goofy
Goblins: Carolyn McMullins, Kim Parker, Chris
Freeman, Denise Griggs, Tony Bugg, Troy
Dillard, Kelly Collins, and Derrick Wilson with
Derrick coming out on top. The Juniors per-
formed their version of The Wrong Show.

The Sophomore Goofy Goblins, Jarratt
Cross, Willette Jones, Jeff Baker, Kim Duggan,
Dana Harris, Len Reid, Ernest Henderson,
Bridgette Taylor, and Jeanette Powers,
collected $99.68 with Len collecting the most.
The Sophomores put on a beauty contest
dressed as crazy characters such as Ms. T.

A special thanks went to Kay Stuart, Wanda
Dumas, Lisa Roberts, and Sylvester Hollis for
being stand-ins for some of the Seniors. All in
all, Goofy Goblin '83 was a success with a
grand total of $424.79 being collected.

BIG ORANGE WEEK

The Anticipated Death of Central Became

An Infatuation With Southwest Students

This year, the annual Orange Crush ac-
tivities for the Central game were given a
new name Big Orange Week. The week
began on October 31st with Pumpkin Day.
Since October 31st was also Halloween, it coin-
cided with the pumpkins hidden by Student
Council members on the previous Friday
After students found the pumpkins and before
turning them in for a prize, they were to write
their name on the back for a big drawing. A
pumpkin full of candy was given to Dawn
Cobb for hers was the name drawn.

Activities for the week were picked up on
Wednesday with the grand Punk Rock Day.
A contest was held in each building to see
who was the best dressed punker. Monica
Goodwin was chosen in MB, Veronica
Roberts, Tony Ziegler in MA, and Jeff Baker in
WA. The campus was definitely given a new
look with students everywhere wearing
everything from leopard mini skirts to safety
pin earrings. Also, if you needed any colored

hair spray Wednesday night, too bad
Southwest students cleaned the stores.

Thursday was Hat and Shades Day. Some
people got really crazy with the idea and
wore lampshades on their heads! Everyone,
of course, looked forward to the big bonfire
to be held that night. Bunches of students
crowded into the South Macon Ballpark
around the fire and watched as the Central
Charger dummy was cremated

The climax of the activities came on Friday
with the big funeral for Central. The
Reverend Murphy led the procession,
followed by the pall bearers carrying the
casket. Then, as students cheered, the
reverend made a few last remarks before
laying the remains fo rest.

CHRISTMAS ASSEMBLIES

Christmas Spirit Heralds Joy and Cheer

Onto the Southwest Students and Faculty

Spirit Students working together and
believing strongly in themselves and their
school. Of course, spirit is always found af
Southwest, but it seems to be stronger at cer-
tain times of the year. Christmas is one of
those times and Christmas 83 was no
exception.

During the week before the holidays,
students from all classes were busy decorating
and preparing for the annual Christmas
events. Each morning during supervision, they
collected donations to buy presents for their
adopted nursing home residents.

On the very morning before the holidays
the Seniors, during first period, threw their big
Senior Christmas party. There was music, dan-
cing, refreshments, and the grand finale of
some faculty members performing their ver-
sion of "The Twelve Days of Christmas.

Shortly afterwards, each class crowded into
their designated gym for their Christmas as-

semblies. The Sophomores received a grand
treat as members of the chorus sang Christ-
mas carols for them. The Juniors were also
treated with beautiful music as the concert
band performed a combination of carols. The
Seniors, on the other hand, did not hear any
melodious voices or instruments. Instead, they
were honored with a special guest to help fill
them with Christmas spirit . . . Santa Claus.

All three assemblies did have one thing in
common. Each class presented their gifts to
their nursing home residents. That in itself was
proof of the special effect Christmas 83 had
on Southwest students.

WINTER EVENTS

Winter Activities Lend Extra Excitement to Southwest Affairs!

School life at Southwest consists not only of
a strong academic background bur also of
special assemblies and events which give
students a variety of learning experiences.

To start the year off, Seniors had the honor
of having Dr. Wayne Ates speak af their
Thanksgiving assembly. Dr. Ates, a Minister
from Florida, frequently makes trips to high
schools around the South. Humorously, yet
with a serious undertone, Dr. Ates encour-
aged students to stay straight and take full ad-
vantage of lifes golden opportunities.

One event that lasted all through fall and
part of winter was the Annual sales. Every
year the Annual Staff makes trips to supervi-
sions to collect payments. Then, the supervi-
sion in which each student buys a book gets
their names put on the outside for free. This
year's winning supervision was 210 as it has
been for more than five years! Keep it up!

To give students a taste of cultural enrich-
ment, the Art Department brought in a travel-
ing Art Show full of work from high schools in
the Middle Georgia area. The paintings, which
varied from abstracts to self portraits, were
displayed for a week on the walls and
bulletin boards in the McEvoy B lobby.
Because of their beauty, the paintings added
acertain air of distinction to our school.

Among all of the greatest activities of
Southwest is the Student Council sponsored
Blood Drive, which, this year, was held on
Deecember 8th. For two weeks prior to this

December 8th. For two weeks prior to this
date, Council members worked diligently on
recruiting volunteers who were af least
seventeen years of age and weighed over
110 pounds. Exactly 124 people gave blood
and more tried. The following people

SPIRIT STICK

Mighty Mighty Seniors Win It Again!

Spirit Stick 64 \t changed again! Last
year, several events such as attendance con-
tests, pep rallies, etc., led up to the big com-
petition. This year, however, there were no
activities; there was only the big competition

On January 25th, competition was held
between the Juniors and Sophomores. The
Juniors, dressed completely in blue with blue
pirate hats and pennants, filed quietly into a
sign covered gym. The Sophomores followed
all dressed in white with white paper spirit
hands. After was in, the
Sophomore lads and lasses, Jeff Baker, Staret-
ta Johnson, Eddie Walker, Willette Jones,
Tony Ziegler, Debbie Walker, Ernest Hender-
son, and Brenda Benton, performed a dance
dressed as pirates. Then the Junior lads and
lasses, Tony Bugg, Carolyn McMullins, Denise
Griggs, Troy Dillard, Derrick Wilson, Kelli
Stone, Kelly Collins, and Chris Freeman, acted
out a skit adapted from the Wizard of Oz

Finally the competition began as Senior Joe
Rozier took control of the stick. It was a tough
decision, but the Juniors won

On January 26th, competition was held
between the champion Seniors and the
Juniors. There was an even greater silence as

the Juniors filed once again into the gym
followed closely by the Seniors, dressed in
their red clothes, bow ties and top hats. The
Junior lads and lasses performed their skit
Then it was time for the Senior lads and lasses
Kay Stuart, Eldrida Carter, Paul Whitehead,
Candy Lucas, Barry Dean, Beverly Plunkett,
Tim Stenson, and Quinton Tard, to act out
their skit. Dressed in regular clothes, some of
them portrayed students without any spirit
Then, out of the blue, a special appearance
was made by Mikie Jackson (Quinton Tard)
as he showed everyone the way fo spirit

With one raise of the stick, held by
Sophomore Jarratt Cross, the gym was bom-
barded with the screams and cheers of over
1,700 students. With one downward sweep of
the stick, the gym was once again quiet.

After the gym was finally cleared, the
judges sat deliberating for what seemed like
hours before reaching the grand decision
THE SENIORS HAD WON AGAINI!

trocution of the Mistress and Master of
Ceremonies, Eleanor Taylor and Rufus
Johnson, after which the first glimpse of the
contestants was given as they performed a
short dance routine. The next view of the girls
came as they were presented in casual wear
and formally introduced themselves to the
audience. While still in their casual wear, they
sang a beautiful song with Charles Murphy.
Finally, the contestants and their escorts were
presented in their formal attire and more in-
formation about each girl was read to the au-
dience. Between each segment of the pro-
gram, the audience was entertained by selec-

tions from the Southwest Jazz Group, dancing
from the student group Wave Kontrol, and
songs from the outstanding voice of Gwen
Moore.

Before the announcement of the winners, a
special appearance was made by Miss Afro
Macon 1984, Eldrida Carter. Then the program
was turned over to Charles Murphy, who an-
nounced the winners. They are as follows
Miss Sophomore Tracy Fuller, Miss Junior
Paige Tucker, Miss Senior Kay Stuart, Third
runner-up Jane Horton, Second runner-up
Kelli Stone, first runner-up Ann Spivey,
and Miss Sweetheart 1984 Brigitte Denise
Davis!

This year, each contestant in the coronation
received a gold trophy with her name on it.
Each class winner received $10 in cash, a
trophy, and flowers, while each runner-up
recieved $15 in cash, a trophy, and flowers.
Miss Sweetheart received $50 in cash, a huge
trophy, flowers, and a magnificent rhinestone
crown.

class was considered a special sweetheart to
the Southwest Patriots.

C(O MANLESS PAGEANT

Male Beauties Entertain an Audience

While Flaunting *Womanly Physiques

The third annual Womanless Beauty
Pageant was held on Marcy 27, 1984, in the
Willingham A gym. Nineteen beautiful young

ladies competed for the big title of Mr
Miss Southwest. Ir all began backstage
when the Civinettes helped the guys ac-
complish the almost impossible, becoming
beautiful. They began with the swimsuit com-
petition in which all of the wellendowed
ladies showed off their beautifully shaped
physiques. As the night progressed, they had
the talent competition where each male
member had a chance to perform 'her hid-
den talents. The last chance they had to win
was in the evening gown competition where
each competitor dressed in her most ex-
travagant formal wear. The judges then nar-
rowed it down by choosing five finalists
Neider Capalungan, Terry Napier, Maurice
Green, Troy Dillard, and Ricky Leach. Each of
the five finalists were asked a question ex-
temporaneously. As the judges conversed to
decide who the winner would be, the five

finalists stood nervously awaiting the judges
decision. This years choice Maurice Green
the new Southwest beauty queen. Maurice
was crowned and hugged by the 1983
queen, Paul Whitehead. Maurice received
several Michael Jackson records, twenty
dollars, flowers, and the queens crown. Thus
ended, for another year, one of the most
entertaining and hilarious events at
Southwest

SENIOR PLAY

Senior Play Deemed

Hilarious Excellent

Do you trust your boyfriend? This is a
popular topic among gossiping girls, but it took
on a more important aspect as the title of the
1984 Senior play. After competing in tryouts
against an estimated forty others, ten talented
Seniors were selected to portray the following
characters: Kay Meredith Angela Pearson,
Lois Andrews Eldrida Carter, Madeline Ross
Colicia Hanson, Steve Woodand Joe Rozier,
Tom Nolan Rodney Davis, Phil Hunter Paul
Whitehead, Judy Meredith Shirley Boone,
Bessie Trotter Debra Freeman, Miss Denny
Lisa Smith, G. T. Ellison Maurice Green.

The play consisted of three acts and was
literally about two girls who did not trust their
boyfriends with a beautiful model. The audience
roared as the girls got themselves into hilarious
predicaments trying to hide the model from the
boys. Finally, the girls kept their boyfriends, the
flirtatious model found herself another little man
and, as always, everyone lived happily ever
ofter!

Congratulations goes to Rodney Davis who
tackled the role of Tom Nolan three weeks
before the play, after the death of Timothy
Stenson to whom the cast dedicated the play.

SPRING FLING

Activities of Spring Fling Week Enhance

the Grand Finale, the Spring Festival!

Carefully planned months in advance by
Student Council, Spring Fling Week, held April
23 through 27, was filled with activities, some
familiar, others new to Southwest. Through
posters and announcements, the students
were made aware of the various outfits fo be
worn each day. Students were directed to
wear jeans and jerseys to start the week. The
amusing costumes worn on Hobo Day were
certainly a change from the familiar dress:
designer jeans and Ocean Pacific shirts.
Wednesday, Muscle Shirr Day, was the day
for guys as well as girls to show off their
muscles. The ever-popular Kitty Day follow-
ed. Teddy bears, ribbons, and diapers re-
placed the usual attire.

The grand finale, the Spring Festival, was
the climax of the week. During both lunch

262 Spring Fling

periods, the students enjoyed milling around,
participating in the tug-o-war, cake walk, and
many other events. They especially enjoyed
the Pep Club sponsored breakdance contest.
All together, the week was fascinating and
different from any other school week.

Nothing, especially if you are a teenager. Of

be aggravated by little sisters and brothers
but most Southwest students prefer to go Out
and have a good time. Evie Crumbliss and
the students in her classes have been working
with the city, trying to start a Youth Commit

school to find a place where teenagers can
get together. On May 19 there was a Main

OPINIONS AND FAVORITES

SW Students Soeak Out on the Latest National and City Events

The opinions of todays young people are
extremely important to sociery. Therefore, in
January of this year, a poll was taken in four
supervisions from each class to gather
students opinions on some of the latest
events and most popular fads

The first part of the poll hit really close to
home with teenagers as they were asked
what they thought about the smoking ban
the drinking age, and DUI (driving under the
influence) laws. Though it may seem hard to
believe, most teens were very much for the
smoking ban. It seems that the number of
smoking teens is decreasing. The non-smokers
feel that it is bad enough having to encounter
smoke out in public and at home without hav-
ing to tolerate it at school too

While the number of smoking teens has
decreased, the number of drinking teens
seems to have increased. Students are drink-
ing at much earlier ages, so they, therefore
feel that the drinking age should be lowered
Even though they have negative views on
the drinking age, a large percent of the
drinkers have very positive views on the DUI

laws. It looks as though all of rhe publicity
drinking and driving had a good effect
young people

Although it has been a couple of
since Them Dawgs" scored so big with
across the South, they are still #1 in the hearts
of the majority of the Southwest Patriots. The
new craze of Cabbage Patch Dolls, however
did not score so big. They felt rhar there was
no excuse for so many people being injured
over a doll that was ugly in the first place

The last part of the poll concerned opinions
on state and national events, two of them be-
ing the death sentence and the nuclear arms
race. Students seem to be confused about the
death sentence. Most feel that murder is
wrong no exceptions but they truly
have their doubts with someone who has
been so ruthless and cold blooded as fo kill in
the first place

As for the nuclear arms race, students stand
firmly against it. Most of them want nothing
more than peace between nations, which
also seems to be what everyone else wants

Also included in the poll was a separare

PLEASURE ACTIVITIES

To Remain Elastic. . .

Not Plastic SW

Students Overstretch Normal Boundarys

After a long day at school, Southwest
students are more than ready to relax and
start enjoying the pleasures of life. After work-
ing for so long, tension and frustrations tend to
build up and tire a person out. Therefore,
each individual has his own activities for get-
ting rid of these pressures.

We are now living in an age where people
are becoming fitness freaks. Everyone is in-
fatuated with losing weight and getting in
shape, so the spas and school weightrooms
stay full. After all, what better way to release
tensions than exercising, which is exactly what
Steve Grayer and Debbie Coleman do.

Steve is a popular basketball player at
Southwest, so he has to stay in shape. He
always works out in the weightroom and
does a routine of stretching exercises to stay
limber for the big games.

Debbie enjoys working out just for the
pleasure of staying in shape and toning her
muscles. She jogs around her neighborhood
at least twice a week. She also enjoys and

looks forward to a nice dip in the whirlpool
after a workout, to relax tightened joints.

While Debra and Steve like exercising in
their spare time, Debra Addleton prefers a
more cultural activity, playing the piano. She
has been playing since she was a small child
and has progressed quite a bit over the years.
In fact, her performance is so good that she
sometimes teaches younger students to play.
She has also performed several times at
school functions. More than anything though,
Debra likes to play simply for the plain
enjoyment.

These are only a few of the many activities
students have, but these activities all do the
same thing. They give students a chance to
relax and enjoy themselves, which is just
what the doctor ordered for a happy and
healthy life!

BREAKDANCNG TS

Pop It to Lock It; Break It to Make It Crack!

Spinning on your head, spinning on your
knees, spinning while you just cannot see.
Thar is the new craze better known as
Breakdancing. Breaking originated from street
dancers in New York and it became popular
after this years super box office hit
Flashdance. Breaking, which is associated with
poppin and the Electric Bugaloo, is also a
form of body language. But teenagers feel
that breaking is more than just dancing; it is
more than a different way fo get a message
across to a friend; it is a skill that only a few
gifted and talented people can master. Those

272 Breakdancing

teens who have not yet mastered the skill
have certainly enjoyed trying to. Danger:
Those over thirty should be warned that
Breaking can be hazardous to your health.

SPRING EVENTS

What Is Next on Our Agenda for Spring?

Spring, Spring, Spring! You can feel it in the
air! Take a deep breath smell the smells
listen to the sounds. Spring has arrived!

Along with the natural occurences in spring
are some unnatural occurences planned by
man more specifically, special events oc-
curring at Southwest which are brought to
mind each year as spring rolls around. Spring
Fling, pictured on pages 262 and 263, is the
most prevalent of those mindful events. A
multitude of assembies fall during spring time.
Many assemblies were annual such as the
election of class officers. Then we were
privileged with special speakers like Butter-
fly McQueen who played ''Prissy" in Gone
With the Wind. Up With People also per-
formed an exceptional program.

A big part of the end of the school year for
an underclassman was registering for the next
year's classes. Seniors received their an-
nouncements and their caps and gowns.

Of course, there is always the Junior/Senior
Prom to look forward to. The Juniors worked
unceasingly for months trying to make the
night perfect for each couple attending.

This spring was especially eventful, thanks

276 Spring Events

to the Pep Club-sponsored Gloria Washington
Roast to honor a special kind of pricipal.' On
May 15, Gloria Washington was "lured to the
MB gym where the annual editor had her ar-
rested for committing the offense of being
nice. Student Council representatives gave
her potatoes and carrots to go with her roast,
followed by similar jests from other club
representatives. Mrs. Washington's evening
was capped by hilarious remarks from her
husband and by a presentation of a
clock/plaque by Pep Club Advisor Charles
Murphy.

As spring fades away into summer and the
golden school days come to a close, these
events are once again a memory, But, of
course, there is always next year...

Fairy Tale Includes

If you are blue and you dont know
where to go, why dont you go where
fashion sits Puttin on the Ritz. May 11,
1984, at the Macon City Auditorium Southwest
students were Puttin on the Ritz at the Junior-
Senior Prom. Clad in the newest evening
fashions, accented by gloves and pumps,
canes and hats.

The traditional prom pictures were taken
before the dance. Following pictures, most
couples went out to dine at Macon's finest
restaurants: afterwards, they returned fo
dance. The night went along smoothly with
the band known as The Frat playing
popular songs.

Just as all fairy tales must come to an end,
the Junior-Senior prom turned into a happy
memory at midnight, but for most Juniors and

Putting on the Ritz

Seniors, the night was not over because at Six
Flags Over Georgia, it was Senior Night and
the celebration of the Seniors last prom
continued.

Yes, May 11, 1984, was a Classy,
unbelievable, Cinderella fairy tale for the
classiest classes at Southwest.

GRADUATION

After All Preparations, the Graduates...

Before the ceremony began, the Seniors
displayed mixed emotions there were
those who remained solemn, there were
those who cried, and there were those who
remained cheerful. When the graduates final-
ly did file into the Coliseum for the main
event, the arena was packed with well
wishers. After the Invocation by Brigitte Davis,
Elaina Evans, John Kimbro, and Kim Carter
gave their speeches. Elainas speech stressed
the fact that success is measured on barriers
passed, rather than on positional status. Johns
message dealt with the fact that one should
learn from his mistakes. Kim's message was
based on the notion that each of the
graduates should turn stumbling blocks into
stepping stones. These speeches were

followed by remarks by Gloria Washington,
Thomas Hagler, and David Brotherton. Then,
the moment arrived when the seniors walked
across the stage to receive their diplomas. A
standing ovation was given to David Pea-

cock as he received a medal of distinction and
his diploma. When the last name was called,
the Seniors sang their Song of Farewell,
directed by Doris Terry. After the benediction
by Kay Stuart and the recessional, the Seniors
turned their attention to either partying, af-
tending the Senior Cruise, or just plain hugging

and crying.

Tragedies, Minorities, And Politics
Grasp The Main Headlines This Year

| just want to thank you for buying
my records, and | just want to thank my
mother and father and all of my lovely
friends. That excerpt was uttered very
softly at the Grammy Awards presenta-
tion by the 25 year old superstar
Michael Jackson. Michael Jackson's
album Thriller sold over 30 million copies
and it earned him a record eight Gram-
mys. On the flipside of all this happiness
was the tragedy in Lebanon in October.
Two hundred eighteen Marines,
eighteen sailors, and three soldiers were
reported dead after Syrian troops made
Q surprise attack on the army camp.
These two happenings highlighted an
unforgettable year.

On September 1, a Korean Air Lines
747 was hit by a Soviet air-to-air missile
killing all 269 people on ward.

September 2 marked the final edition
of the 99 year old Macon News, our
towns evening paper.

Sally Ride became the first woman
from the U.S. in space in fall of 83.
Gurion Bluford became the first black
from any country in space when the U.S.
attempted her first night departure.

In 63 years of the Miss America
Pageant, there had never been a black
winner until Vanessa Williams walked
away with the title this year.

At the first of November the U.S. in-
vaded Grenada. This invasion marked
the first time in the history of the U.S.
that the media was restricted.

Deaths included: Boxing Champion
Jack Dempsey, Lillian Carter, Composer
lra Gershwin, Composer Eubie Blake,
News Anchor Jessica Savitch, Football
coach George Halas, Actor Michael
Conrad, Singer Marvin Gaye, Musical
Genius Count Basie, Football star Norm
Van Brocklin, Senotor Henry Jackson,
Soviet Prime Minister Yuri Andropov.

Lech Walesa, leader of the Polish
Solidarity movement, was named a

Nobel Peace Prize Winner.

The top movie was Terms of
Endearment. A sleeper box office hit
was Flashdance. The Best Actor award
was given to Robert Duvall while the
Best Actress was named Shirley
McClain.

The political scene came fo life with
the Democratic party divided between
contender Walter Mondale, Senofor
Gary Hart, and Black Activist Rev. Jesse
Jackson. The winner will face the incum-
bent President Ronald Reagan.

In sports, the reigning champions in-
cluded the Boston Celtics in pro basket-
ball, the Los Angeles Raiders in pro foot-
ball, the Baltimore Orioles in pro
baseball, Martina Navratilova in pro
tennis, the Michigan Panthers in pro foot-
ball, the Miami Hurricanes in college
football, and the Georgetown Hoyas in
college basketball. The names making
headlines in sports included Larry Bird,
Bernard King, Michael Jordan, Mike
Rozier, Marcus Allen, Steve Young, Rick
Dempsey, Cal Ripkin, Jr., Dale Murphy,
Wayne Gretsky, John McEnroe, Jimmy
Connors, Mavis Hagler, Larry Holmes,
Phil and Steve Mahre, Bill Johnson,

In the Winter Olympics, the Soviet
Union reigned; in the summer games
they, along with many of their allies,
will not even show up.

High Technology is here to stay. There is
no discarding it. The question is no longer
Should we let it bombard our lives?; it
has now become a question of how much
we will let it enter and influence us. A har-
monious conclusion to that question would
be to combine the good of high
technology with our everyday simple
lives, watching for and monitoring the bad

of high technology. Or shall we plunge
head first into the research and develop-
ment of high technology, disregarding the
possibility of mistakes and destruction. The
choice is ours. What choice will we make
as we attempt to EXPLORE HIGH
TECHNOLOGY?

308 Exploring High Technology

310 Annual Stoff

To Be Or Not To
Be Impersonality

In producing a complex yearbook with
the theme, Exploring High Technology,
there should not have been time for per-
sonal interaction. Deadlines had to be met,
pictures taken, copy written whether
we lived or died.

Yet, through some mysterious
phenomenon, the staff managed to put
together a fine book and still enjoy each
other's company. Tracie Wright, Classes,
always got joked with about the way she
pranced around, while Jamie Adkins,
Classes, received jokes about her spacy
personality. Genene Brooks, Chief Typist,
always managed fo slide out of staying
after school. Some of her excuses were
hilarious. Everyone loved to see our
Business Manager Bobbie Jo Barlow mad
she would have done well on the silver
screen. Jeff Moody, Chief Photographer
and Sports Editor, received comments that
maybe he was not really sick for a week
because he came back fo school so quickly
after he was on his deathbed.

Some of the staff members obtained
some crazy nicknames. Kim _ Boston,
became known as Buckwheat. Carolyn
McMullins, was the chief joker on the staff.
The staff returned the favor by giving her
the nickname Homecoming Dog." Our
Most Valuable staffer, Carol Miller, was
nicknamed Frog. Colicia Hanson, was
known by staff members as Puff. Puff had
quite a year she sustained a black eye,
and an injured knee. Trudy Norris, our Ad-
visor, was named, not nicknamed, but
named Gertrude.

There were, however, two normal peo-
ple with no nicknames on the staff, Lisa
Dean, our Artist, and Lisa Thomas, our Art
Advisor. These two proved to be two of
the best workers on the stoff.

Lastly was our Editor-in-Chief Maurice
Green, nicknamed Wilbur. Wilbur was
perfect when he managed fo wear
matching clothes, and was present for two
straight days in his other classes.

Well, impersonality was to have been
the trademark for high technology, but
with this staff, personality was the rule.

342 Editor's Note

Though this last page had been
reserved as an Edifors Note page, | feel
this book would not be complete
without doing a feature on the woman
who works behind the scenes on the
yearbook. Each of you know her she
is none other than Trudy Norris, the Ac-
visor of the biggest operation on the
school campus. The general school
population knows her as always being
energetic, very intelligent, and forever
taking cigarette and coffee breaks. The
annual staffs she has headed over the
years know her to be a demanding
perfectionist, a grand organizer and an

|

extremely hard worker.

In the past three years, | have grown
to know her as an excellent teacher
and fun loving (after deadlines are
mailed). She is constantly concerned
about making sure my future blossoms
into a success. And since this is her last
publication, |, on behalf of the entire
Southwest population, just want to say
THANKS AND WELL DONE.

It has been an honor to work on the
Spirit of 84 and hopefully you will enjoy
the book as much as | have enjoyed
helping to produce it

LOVE, MAURICE GREEN
