BOOB TUBE T.V. is such a part of our daily lives that we thought of it as the theme for our '79 Spartan . Called the boob tube and idiot box, 1t is, like our lives, sometimes dull and boring. But it can be bright, clear, and with good contrast, just as our school days can be . T.V. is educational, informative, entertaining. It can be repetitive and downright stupid. T .V. reftects

much of our culture. We feel our book does the same. We 've worked hard to bring you this sharp picture of life at W. H.S. m 19781979. Thanks for tuning us in ....... The '79 Spartan is brought to you by: The W. H.S. Yearbook Staff, Herff-Jones Yearbooks, Osborne Stud1os, and the merchants of this community.

Orange Crush

The 1978 version of the Waynesville Spartan team was l1ke none of the past, marked by such characteristics as enthusiasm, spmt, hard-nosed willmgness to win Something lacking 1n the past. Although the teams record (2-6-1) was not that Impressive the defense played some exceptional football. On three different occasions the defense allowed less than 100 yards total offense. The highlights of the season were the v1ctones over Little Miam1 8-7 and East Clinton 15-0 in the season finale. The captams for 1978 were sen1ors Robert Rye and Larry Bagford, along with junior Mark Creekmore

Defense Is Tough! The senior class of 1979 will always be remembered as the group that turned things around for the football program. The1r leadership prov1ded the underclassmen the opportunity to see what can really be done if a group with the same goals sets forth to accomplish these goals. The awards presented at the awards banquet were. Best Offens1ve Player Mark Creekmore; Best Defensive Player Robert Rye; Most Valuable Player Greg Lynch : The Coaches Trophy went to Larry Bagford and Mike Spencer.

Only five Seniors were on the team and they didn 't all play The fielding was often irregular and errors hurt the team in many games The p1tchmg was good overall. The p1tch1ng staff included Darrell Wahsum. Kirk Kennedy, Greg Lynch, and Marty Mitchener. In the last game, Freshmen were play1ng First. Second, Th1rd, and Two field pos1t1ons w1th a Sophomore at Shortstop. So basically the team was too young to compete successfully w1th more mature teams. As des1gnated hitter, Gerry Raasch led the team with a 417 batting avg . Hurley, Wahsum, and McKinney all batted above .260.

MEET THE PRESS

I •

This year' s yearbook staff was as follows · Top left to nght- Editor- 1n - Ch1ef, Shara Cherryholmes; Adv1sor, Mr. Dillon . Bottom , left to nght Art Editor, Debbie Hall; Kelli Coy; Glenda Cherryholmes. (p. 87) Top, left to nght Stefan1e Clark; Derw1n Hansard. Middle, nght Jen1 Vinson and Cathy Johnson Members of the yearbook class not p1ctured were Phil Merns and Dee - Dee Matter. C1ndy Reeves also helped very much, especially in the Jr. High .

At the start of this year everyone was exc1ted and ready to work on the yearbook Thirteen people had signed up for the yearbook class, but by the middle of the year only seven were left. With help from people not 1n the class and with usually only five or six people, this year's staff met all of its deadlines. Some things in the book th1s year were changed. The sports records were put m w1th the sports sect1on for easy reference The vocat1onal students were not given their own pages because they have the1r own yearbook. They are shown in any act1vit1es 1n which they are involved at Waynesville. Also, because of m1ssing p1ctures, many pages were hard to finish. Still, the staff finished the book in time to meet all of 1ts deadlines. The mam reason for this was Mr. Dillon He kept the book together If not for Mr. D1llon and the summer staff of Shara Cherryholmes . Glenda Cherryholmes Derwin Hansard Stefan1e Clark, Kelli Coy, and Debb1e Hall, the yearbook wouldn 't have made it to the press. Thanks to everyone SHARA CHERRYHOLMES.

THE SOUND OF MUSIC

101

This year's musical production was "The Sound of Music." It was a difficult show to put on . There had to be a stage crew to move the elaborate scenery into place. There were a lot of fast costume changes.

102

The nuns roasted in their multipieced habits. Some of the music was complicated . It was difficult to work with two casts of children . But with a lot of hard work and determination the cast put on an excellent show.

103

How're Ya Gonna l<eep 'Em Down on the Farm Eleven students, accompan1ed by Mr. Dillon , toured France dunng Apnl , 1979 After earning money through an onion soup sale at the Sauerkraut Fest1val, a teddy bear raffle, and gourmet d1nner 1n the spring they flew to Paris for one of the greatest adventures of thm lives. After the 1nitial culture shock, the students quickly learned their way around Paris & became adept at traveling on the metro . Highlights of the tour 1ncluded a deluxe meal in a 3-star restaurant 10 Tours, renting bikes 1n the park at Versailles, races on the metro, fun in the hotel's elevator Sitting on the steps of Sacre Coeur Church hstenmg to folk songs, climbing the E1ffel Tower " Scope ' the Mona Lisa Pans 10 the Spnng .•.

SENIORS OF '79 Here we are Seniors! We've made it; not without struggle, but we made it. This year there were ninety-five Seniors in the class of '79. We are close friends which helps in having fun at school. This year we did many things together. We had class paper drives, Spirit Week, the Home Coming Dance, football games, basketball games, pep assemblies, the Sweetheart Dance, and Senior Skip Day (almost every day!). Our year finally wound down to the prom. We were excited about our Senior prom; we selected as our prom theme and song, "Color My World." We also selected "Yesterday" as our class song, a white rose as our class ftower, and orange and white as our class colors. Our class began in 1966 and we grew together and shared many experiences. We can look back to this scroll and try to see a glimpse of these times. Our high school years are said to be the "Best Days of Our Lives," and as our Senior year ends, we do admit they have been the best years. As our final year ends our class motto comes to mind: "The past has gone and memories shall be, the future has come and memories we need."

R. 2: Rich Bryant, Rodney Gruber, Scott Lander, Scott Graham, T1m La1rd, Kurt Purkey, M1ke Ramby, J1mmy Deters, Mark Joefreda, Carter Merri s. R 3: Rayce Henson (staU , J1m Philpot <coach) , Jeff Osborne Phillip G1bson; Jim Nix, Tim Peyton, Donme Miller, Chuck Crone Donny Rockhold , Julian Farley, Russell Winsted, Mike Gill iam, Chuck Parks, Lonnie Miller, Mike Hess, Jerry Henson (coach) , Mgr Chris Henderson . It was a season of superlatives! The 1st team defense was NEVER scored on ; the offense was the highest scoring in the school 's history. The highlight of the season was defeat of Springboro in a muddy no- contest. 'Boro could only score late against our 2nd team & 7th graders. " We not only beat 'em, we put it to ' em," said Coach Philpot. " This was probably the hardest hitting ball club we've ever had," he continued ' Some of the h1ts were as hard as any High School team could muster " ' Nobody came close to them they killed everybody they played .", said H S. Coach Mescher.

152

To Undefeated Season! "They are a bunch of super athletes if we can keep them eligible and interested," said Mescher The offensi ve line (including Perdue, Gibson, Nix, the Millers, Parks, Bryant, Farley) didn 't get the credit it deserved," he sa1d. All of the 7th & 8th graders not in basketball were active 1n the off-season cond1t10ning program . The top defensive lineman was Donny Rockhold (who also gained 468 yards). Lonnie

Miller was best offensive lineman . Most improved was Chuck Crone. MVP was Russell Winsted (162 YDS . per game rushing). Leadership award: Julian Farley. Comments from some players: Most off-s1des. Scott G.; best score w. cheerleaders: Tim P.; Most belly womps Scott Lander!

153

Physical Spartans Dominate League And Tourney! " The most physical team I ever coached in Jr. High! They didn' t back off from anybody. But they were a hard bunch to coach because they had a lot of bottled-up energy," said Coach Philpot. " Even in scrimmage, the s1des would fight each other to w1n . They hated to lose because they' re a winning-type ball club." The 8th graders crushed 15 opponents in a high-performance season . Their only loss was avenged in the Cedarville Invit. Tourney finals against a fast Yellow Sprs. team. The awards were: Most Improved, Tom Sackett; Offensive trophy, Russ Winstead; Defensive trophy & top rebounder, Doug Perdue. The players ' favorite dri ll was running the black line.

Season Is 15-1!

The final tourney game: we trailed 3 qtrs; they looked like they'd blow us out because of outside shooting. In the fourth qtr., the game turned largely

• because we were in better condition. A pressing , fast-break club, we just turned loose and won it. Perdue & Sackett (the playmakerl were the top tourney players. "You can 't hate a ball club with a winn ing attitude like theirs" said Philpot. Photo indent.: L. to R. Tom Sackett, Mike Gilliam, Lonnie Miller, Chuck Crone, Doug Perdue, Julian Farley, Phil Gibson, Russ Winsted, Don Rockhold, Kurt Purkey. Back: Coach Philpot, Mgr. Mike Fox, Mgr.
