Fleming. Consider its champions in cross country, wrestling, jv football and basketball. Think about the valley's
largest group to brave the AP
courses or the 510 apprentices
that interned in the new
vocational wing. Remember
the record crowd making the
best of the freezing ra in that
crowned the homeco ming
queen or the cast of "Bus
Stop" that made the show go
on even though ice had sca red
away all but 30 customers.

Simple Pleasures:Living at Its Best
The simple pleasures. Live
them with a walk in a summer
shower, a hike on a Blue Ridge
Mountain newly-painted with
snow, or a night spent
counting thousands of stars
passing through the Roanoke
Valley.
Remember running through
the water blowing off Camper
Hall, hiking up to the falls at
Valle Crucis and getting a little
bit lost, or gazing up at the
American Flag waving boldly
at half-mast in respect for the
eight Marines killed in Iran.
Savor the taste of a hamburger grilled over the fire at
an honors picnic, the coolness
of a shower after running four
440's and eight 880's for track
practice, or the smell of an
SCA carnation given anonymously from an admirer on
Valentine's Day.
At Fleming, the simple pleasures were simpiy the best.

Good Times: Bringing Out theBest inUs
The good times: Recall yelling as the Eagles played their
three encores before a soldout crowd at the Roanoke
Valley Civic Center; applauding as Dean Irvin E. Cannaday, Jr. accepted the yearbook dedication in honor of
"The Mighty Smith;" laughing
as your classmate's blue cap
slipped sideways on her head
at capping.
Try not to cry when thinking
about dancing with a "special
lady" the night you two were
"on top of the world" or shaking the goal post after the last
pep assembly or standing a little straighter at graduation as
your name was called.
Laugh when remembering
the riders who spent more
time on the floor than on their
donkeys at the donkey basketball game; the teache rs who
winced as they ducked wella i med water balloons; a
chihuahua named Snoopy
who stole the gong show, but
got the gong.
But in spite of Snoop y's
singing, no one could sa y that
Fleming was going to the dogs .
On the contrary. 1980 came,
and it brought out the /:Jest in
us.

Seniors in Boston had to
stretch their necks well over a
few lengths to see Senator
Edward Kennedy start his
presidential race. Most
Colonels, however, were as
concerned with homecoming
elections as they were with
presidential elections, hoping
their best friends would either
win, place, or show.
As the year headed into the
homestretch, prom, capp i ng,
and graduation became the
triple crown events. Everyone
who had broken the tape
knew that 1980 had been a
blue-ribbon year.

the nation's number-one

of the
TimeS
'Te11
J.R.
to run for
President.'
'Fight the
Ayatollah.
Drive 55.'
'My take home pay won't
take me home anymore.'
Painted on the side of Hart
Hall, peering bigger than life
from billboards, and scrawled
on the trunks of dirty cars,
these signs summed up the
three most pressing issues of
the times. The decade was
born in a cradle of controversy,
as President Jimmy Carter
tried to cope with American
hostages in Iran, the Russian
invasion of Afghanistan, and
rising oil prices. His 'tough
foreign policy' included the
proposed reinstatement of
draft registration and the
suggestion to register women
as well as men. It kept debate
alive for months. Just as the
Winter Olympics got underway in Lake Placid, New York,
the dispute over the U.S.
participation at the Summer
Olympics in Moscow began
to boil.
Although most people
said that they wouldn't
take on President Carter's
problems for anything, more
than a few were trying for
the chance. Senator Edward
M . Kennedy attacked the
President for the Democratic
nomination and Republicans
George Bush, Ron a ld
Reagan, Howard Baker, and
John Connally battled it
out for the
Republican
nomination.
In other political arenas, the
Equal Rights Amendment
bit the dust for the eighth
time.
Most politicians pointed
to inflation as one of their
prime concerns. Colonels
found it difficult to drive
25 miles per hour as they
lined up for $1.25 per gallon
gas at stations. But one service station owner undercut
the going price by offering a
gallon of gas for one thin
dime. There was only one
hitch. It had to be pure
silver , which peaked at
$38.62 an ounce.
Even though silver d imes
weren't easy to come by,
the Colonels tried to find
the silver lining by pla ying
powderpuff football. Some
Colonels learned that it took
more than a stead y hand
to play donkey basketball.
Other students with a soft
heart gave blood on schoo l
donation day and carnations
on Valentines Day . But o f
all the crises, the biggest
was the candy and bake sales
crisis on campus as students
tried to meet their quota .
Almost every club and
organization got into the
fund raising act.
W h at is the wor ld coming
to at 50¢ for a bar of candy?

'Tennis is

'Every welldressed guy
needs a little
Gator-aid .'
' Levis sings the blues.'
It was fashionable to be
fashionable. Levi Strauss
may have been sewing the
blues, but he certainly
wasn't singing them. Blue
jeans (called denims or
designer jeans in more
fashionable circles) and
flannel shirts brought
Colonels through a mild
winter. But when spring
blossomed, 'prep' became
popular again. Alligator
shirts, Docksiders, khaki
pants, button-down shirts
and down jackets sent
Colonels heading for Crossroads Mall,
Tanglewood,
and even the
City Market. Fashion appeared
everywhere from the top of
the headto the tip of the toes
when students stepped into
clogs, spike heels, and Nike
tennis shoes. Colonels displayed their own versions of
'ring around the collar' with
serpentine, add-a-bead, and
arrowhead necklaces along
with other matching accessories.
On top of it all, hair came
curly, braided, beaded, and
frizzed. For members of the
football team,bald was beautiful. For them, fashion meant
hair today, gone tomorrow.

th rough most of the first half

It started with teddy
bears. It ended with
Teddy buttons. In between, 32 seniors selected for the senior
trip saw New York
City, Boston, and
Philadelphia.
The Abbott bus bound
for New York City pulled
out of the parking lot
later than scheduled on
a chilly Saturday night in
early November. The
Fleming - Martinsville
football game originally
scheduled for Friday had
been rained out and was
played on the Saturday
of departure. After the
senior band members
performed at their last
half time, th ey rushed
for the bus and urged
Wild Bill, the d river, to
make up for lost time.
He did.
Squeezed in among
the suitcases, pillows,
blankets, sacks of
munchie s, and teddy
bears, no one snuck
even forty winks on the
nine-hour trip to New
York City. A few,
however, dozed off in
t he early morning mass
at St. Thomas Cathedral.
But the group woke up
st rolling dow n Fifth
Avenue.
"Can
we
have
brea kfast at Tiffa ny's?"
someone asked.
"L ook at that man
ea t ing a rat," said
anot her.
" Hey , I can afford

Sak s-th ey're only six

on e senior.
"Th at 's six dollars for

sho es cost an extra $78,"
expla ined his fr iend .
18 Se nior Trip
In New York, seniors
learned that the best
things in life may be free,
but the best things in
New York City cost
plenty. A Broadway play
(Sweeny Todd or Chapter Two, a view from the
Empire State Building, a
buffet at Mama Leone's,
and a trip through the
United Nations left
wallets inside out.
To most, Boston
means baked beans and
tea parties . Although
trips to Fanueil Hall, the
Freedom Trail, and Harvard University were
planned , something unplanned made Boston
more than beans and
tea. The seniors stood in
drizzling rain as Senator
Ted Kennedy announced his presidential campaign. As the Kennedy
clan passed by, the
Colonel clan nearly
passed out. "There's
Jackie," said one. "Who
cares about Jackie?"
"There's John-John and
he's all grown up," was
ty pical of the girl's comments.
With Teddy buttons
pinned to their raincoats, the group left
Boston for Philadelphia's
Liberty Bell and Const itution Hall.
But as the bus pulled
back into Roanoke, it
was obvious what had
impressed the group the
most.
"I want my Teddy,"
the seniors sang. "I know
he's ready. Please bring
my Teddy back home."
The bell didn't toll for seniors

Most of the people who
say life begins at '80 can
brag
about
their
grandchildren and tell a
war story for every gray
hair on their head . But
when seniors bragged that
"Life begins at '80," they
had something else in
mind .
One senior sighed that
'"80 doesn't feel any different than '79," as the
decade arrived. But as the
year wound down with all
of the senior activities, she
had to admit that "Life did
begin at '80."
The Class of '80 began
its exit in late April with
the Senior Banquet. With
May came the Honors Picnic, Senior Reception, and
the PTSA Senior Awards
Assembly. While June 6
steadily approached,
every day was a senior this
or a senior that. The
Senior Pep Assembly
brought the final rush of
the last two weeks of
school. The week began
w'hen the cheerleaders
saluted the Class of '80
with a porn pon routine. It
continued with a senior
breakfast and capping
practice on Thursday and
climaxed when 480
seniors were capped on
Friday.
When the Baccalaureate address, given by
Mrs. Jane Pulliam Heyl ,
valedictorian of the Class
of '70, was over, the same
senior smiled. "Life may
begin at '80," she said,
"but if the pace doesn 't
slow down, I may not
make it 'til '81."
Expressing mixed emotions, Mr. Jam es

hats and carried canes,
and those who covered
their feathered cuts with

mud puddles along the

The life of the party was
Pow ~r Play who belted

Johnson, Christopher

the 422 people who

archway of fresh 'roses,
couples trickled from
their tables to dance the
Skate, the Cowboy, the
Squirm, and the Rock, and
they flooded the dance
floor for the slow dances .
Raggedy Ann peeped
over the edge of wicker
baskets at the four corners
of the dance floor, and
Snoopy surveyed the action from a hot air balloon
in the middle of the room .
Both agreed that all the
"Special Ladies" and their
escorts, too, had every
right to feel "on top of the
world."

It was raining. It was
pouring. But no one in the
Civic Center Coliseum
was· snoring.
A packed crowd snapped to attention as the 466
soon-to-be graduates
paraded by to the band's
rendition of "Pomp and
Circumstance." Senior
Class President Jeff

welcomed
guests, and class speakers
Janie Dickerson, Larry
Meado rs , and Charlotte
Yui ll e and co-valedictorians Julie Webb and
Dier ich Kaiser spoke.
"Sometimes, when you
reach fo r a dream," they
each said in their own
way, "you have to leave
something behind."
Those who were leaving
something behind gave
long ovations to two retiring faculty members,
Dean Hartwell Philips and
Mr. Tom Jones. Most
waited quietly as t he
deans called every name
from Heather Rose Adams
to Robert Davis Yonce.
Mr. James C. Wood
pronounced the "seniors," "graduated," and
the ran ks filed out to
"Grand March."
The skies had cleared as
the first graduate bounded down the steps, his
blue robe flying in the
wind. It was still shining
when the last graduate
lingered for one more
hug from a classmate or
one more picture with the
principal.
"Call me when you get
back from the beach,"
one girl yelled across the
coliseum to her lockermate.
"Let's keep in touch," a
student told her favorite
English teacher.
Those who had learned
that life began at '80 were
d ete rmined to prove that
it didn't have to stop
there, too.

After the main event, senior
Michael McKay examines his

Seeing is believing for senior
De nnis Thompson, who watches the
last of his classmates receive their
diplomas.
Someone must have
told Mr. Hartwell
Philips that when you
smile, the world smiles
with you, but when you
frown, you frown
alone. In his thirty years
as an educator, not
many of the thousands
of students he has influenced have seen him
frown. Instead, most
remember him for his
bow ties, his slightly
off-beat dancing style,
and his tenor voice that
echoes through the
campus at the leastexpected moment.
He likes to be called
"Daddy," not only by
his own six children ,
but by those he has
guided, loved, and disciplined as principal of
Woodrow Wilson
Junior High School for
seven years and twenty
years as a teacher and
dean at the place he
calls "home"
William Fleming High
School.
We wish him well as
he retires this spring
and hope his golf game
is half as good as his
master schedules used
to be. Most of all, we
hope he'll remember
his way back "home."
After twenty years,
Fleming wouldn't know
what to do without his
smile.

Day' Work
It began with roll call. It ended
with a call for rolls . In between,
se nior Catherine Curtis, who is
specia lizing in food services,
fo ll owe d courses leading to a
vocational diploma. A report of
her day follows:
First period-Grammar and Composition
Th e regu lar teac her, Mrs. Jamie
Hardwick, was absent, and a substitute reig ned over The Secret
Life of Walter Mitty. Dean Irvin
Ca nn aday e n te red and introduced a new student from New
York City. "Yo u're going to like
the mighty Fleming," he said. "It's
the greatest sc hool in America."
The student opened hi s book and
began to rea d just as the bell
signa led t he end of his first period
at "the mighty Fl eming".
Second period-Government
It may not have look ed like
Cap ito l Hi ll , but it so und ed like it.
In preparation fo r a mock Congress, M r. Edmund Besse ll's students had written to different
congressmen, ask in g for views on
t he energy crisis, hostages in I ra n,
SALT talks, Ca mbodian refugees,
and drug contro l.
Taking th e po in t of view of the
congr essman to w hom they were
ass igned, the students debated
and brok e up into subcom mit tees
fo r further d iscuss ion . The pierce
of the bell sent the would-be congressm en scur ry ing from Cap itol
Hill to t he break. "We can't solve
al I t he prob lems of the world in
one class," sai d one stud ent. "But

we came a little closer."
Third period-Clothing
The drone of Singer sewing
machines competed with "Jingle
Bells" and "Oh Come All Ye
Faithful", courtesy of the band
practicing in the next room .
Jackets in all sizes, shapes, colors,
and stages of completion were
spread out on cutting tables and
sewing machines. Monday morning gossip surfaced as the 15 girls
cut, clipped, and stitched up with
the ease of Trapper John. "If you
all were sent to I ran," laughed
Mrs . Linda Wakeland,
"the
hostages would be out in no time
flat. They'd give anything to get
yo u al I to hush," she said. A
quietened class went back to
cutting, clipping, and stitching
with only the sounds of "Deck the
Hall s" floating through the air.
Fourth period-Food Service
" Potato" was the word of the day,
and the 17 students began class by
li st ing over 100 different ways to
prepare it. Cooks copied recipes
into their already-thick notebooks
and mumbl ed about the test coming up next Friday. "We have to
know eve rything from memory,"
ex plained one hopeful c hef.

Day'Work
Someone looking for an easy way
out should not look in the direction of a general diploma. "It's
true that requirements for the
general diploma do not include
the ph ysics and higher math that
t hose going for the academic
diploma have to take," stated Mrs.
Doris Egge, guidance coordinator.
" But there are other reasons for
avoiding the academic diploma.
Many excellent students find the
acade mic diploma too restrictive," she sa id . "It does not allow
the m time to take man y elect iv es."
Following junior Wayne Hoyle
th ro ugh a maze of classes that
meet requirements for the
ge neral diploma left no room for
an easy way out.
First period -Dis tributi ve

Indian summer shined through
venetian blinds as Mr . Ralph

showed the students different
ways people shoplift. "Beware of
people with trench coats on a
sunny day , and watch people with
big pocketbooks, too," Mr. Smith
warned . "Be watching for me," he
said. "I may be in your store
soon."
Second period-Photojournalism
Those afraid of the dark would
feel uncomfortable in photojournalism . The 19 students spend
90 % of their time stumbling
around without lights. "This class
is mostly a matter of doing things
over and over and over again,"
said one student, who jerked his
12th print from the fixer. The print
was too dark. "I know black is
beautiful, but all these black prints
are getting ridiculous," he
laughed .
A slightly off-key chorus
brightened the dark room as the
teacher, Miss Nancy Ruth Patterson, brok e into a song, to the tune
of "Bellbottom Trousers". "Even
with the lights out, I can see your
grin," she sang. "Don't laugh too
hard ca use you have to print it

went ba ck to th e enlarger.

Mrs . June Perry's history classes.
On the move, sophomores Darrell
Thomas, Calvin Thomas, and Ra y Graham

Fourth period-British Literature
Students wandered in before the
class started. Mrs . Jennifer Chaney
wrote a list of poems to be read
during class.
The bell rang and the rest of the
class came in. Mrs. Chaney asked
the students to find page 310. "It's
between pages 309 and 311 ," one
student suggested. Mrs. Chaney
read the love poems aloud. "All
those poems are about love, "
commented one student. "It's obvious you don't know anything
about it," laughed another.
Fifth period-United Sta t es

and I'll get the music," said a
clarinet player. Mr. Ulysses Bernard Broadneaux tapped his
baton on the bottom of the stand
for attention . "Let's get to work,"
he said.
Brief a nno u ncem en ts were
made. " Band practice today at
2:45; be on time. Don't forget
the Christmas parades this week
"
"Deck the Halls", "First Noel ",
and "Sleigh Ride" ring through
the bandroom . Mr. Broadneaux
grimaced. "In the seventh
measure on the second beat,
someone played F natural instead
of F sharp in the trumpet section, "
h e sa id . "You stude nts must
remember. It's the littl e things
that m a ke the difference betwee n
a superior band and a John Doe
ba nd," warned Mr. Broadneaux .
Mrs. June Perry started out class
by explaining the assignments that
would be due in the middle of
December . Then the discussions
revolved around the Civil War. "I
could talk to you til I' m green in
the face about the North and
South befo re the Civil War, bu t I
want you to read chapters 14 and
15 and contrast the two," explain e d Mrs. Pe rry. The discuss ions co ntinued, but we nt from
past to present. "The Ira nian situation co uld be sol ved one way,"
said Mrs. Perr y. " Th ey need the
Hulk in Iran to straighten th ings

Day' Work
Contrary to popular belief,
valedictorians do not all carry
their boo ks in briefcases or drink
their milk from test tubes . But
the y do spend more hours hitting
the books than most, and at least
in the case of this year's covaledictorians, they have no time
for co urses in Underwater
Basketweaving and Creating with
Play Dough. Following Dierich
Ka iser, who shares top academic
honors with Julie Webb, proved
that hard wo rk was the name of
the ga m e that leads to an
acade mic diploma.
First period-English Literature
Crime and Punishment was the
na me of the assignment, but one
student in Mrs. Nancy Sirnrnon's
advanced English Literature class
laughed that it might also sum up
the nature of that course. "It's a
crim e not to read the assignment," she said, "and I think I'm
gonna find o ut the punishment
when report cards co me out next
week." Discuss ion focused on Of
Human Bondage. A quiz followed
the disc uss ion, and a reminder of
the te rm paper fo ll owed the q uiz.
"You can do it in you r spar e

not smiling .

Third Period-Advanced

Biology
In room 206, the "morgue" was
lively. The "morgue" was an
etherizer, a jar in which the students placed fruit flies to count
how many had long wings, how
many had red eyes, and how many
had white eyes. The experiment
actually began three weeks ago,
when four flies had been mated,
and the class was inspecting their
50 offspring for genetic characteristics . The students worked in
pairs, counting and sorting the

Hot . . . Sport Page found out
what the word meant when he bit
into four jalapeno peppers on the
flight home from Mexico.
Hot . . . the band found out
what it meant when the condomenium next to their hotel
caught on fire in Florida .
Hot ... the senior learned what
the word meant when they baked
under their Econo gowns at
graduation. But in the world of
cold feet and ice cold Coke, some
like it hot.
The eight members of the cast
of "Bus Stop" kept praying for a
heat wave when snow blanketed
the valley the weekend of their
mid-January performances. But
the only heat they felt was under
the stage lights. The three-act
comedy had been postponed
from its original opening in
December because of a death in
the family of a cast member.
When it opened a month later,
only 100 people braved the
weather to watch what everyone
who attended called "a superior
performance." Judy Clark, Mary
Martindale, Hugh Dalton,
Heather Simmons, Geoffery
Peters, John Wharton, Frank
Harris, and Barry Belcher headed
the all-star cast, not only acting,
but doing their own make up and
costuming as well.
Five of those cast members
turned their attention to "The
Bear," a one-act they performed
at Patrick Henry and at the festival
in Pulaski. They also joined forces
with the band, strings, and choir
for a Christmas program, and
together with the choir, staged a
musical review in mid-May that
once again kept them sweating

Although the choir fell a little
short of the money needed for the
trip to go on tour or give a concert
at Washington's National
Cathedral, no one heard them
singing the blues. Instead, they
turned their attention to concerts
in the Roanoke Valley, and found
out that it could get hot under
stage lights, too. The choir sang
for the lighting of the downtown
Christmas tree, the PTSA school
concert, and for school assemblies
as well.
The chorale added to the conce r t se ason with three civic
programs - two for Kiwanis Clubs
and another for the Business
Wo men ' s Association . Eight
cho rale m embers found the compet it ion w as not too hot to handle
as t hey landed positions in the AllReg i o nal choir , and 46 choir
members combined with Patrick
Henry to form All-City Choir. Mr.
Creed Frazier, choir director,
praised his choir for having better
overall balance than last year.
"Having 17 seniors helped," he
said.
Members of the strings also
took competition in stride as four
won auditions for the Roanoke
Symphony and two Victor
Sparrow (violin) and Floyd Forbes
(bass) - made it to All-State. The
strings serenaded the PTSA at a
Christmas program and the
Roanoke Valley Business Association , and took a spring concert to
four elementary schools. Members also tuned up for the All-City
Pops . The strings' repetoire included everything from classical
(Bach and Mozart) to jazz ("Annie's Song") to country ("Thank
God I'm a Country Boy") while
they found themselves hot ...

The Golden Colonels Marching
Band also found that its competition wasn't too hot to handle. The
128 members whom Director U.B.
Brodneaux praised as "the best"
made his praise ring true in 46
performances. The Drill Team
began work the first week in
August at the University of Richmond, and the other band members tuned up for camp at Fleming, August 7-11.
Practice paid off as the Band
scored a Superior Rating at the
Central North Carolina Band
Festival, where the Drum Major
and Percussion also strutted to
second place. They took first in
the Pulaski Christmas Parade. The
Stage Band found that T.V. lights
could be as hot as wool uniforms
as they performed for Panorama.
The band members also
traveled in four chartered
greyhound buses to the Daytona
Beach, Florida, Festival, where
they rated excellent. "The band
trip cost the Band Boosters
$23,134.84," said Mrs. Claudine
Ferrell, president of the organization. "But they're worth a

Pressure. Barometers measured
it; basketball players applied it;
doctors probed for it. But the people who saw their products come
hot off the press I earned to I ive
with it.
When the members of the
Kaleidoscope saw their two edit ions come hot off the press, they
knew that exerting all that
pressure had made it worthwhile.
Using taped intercom announcements, colorful posters, fortune
cookies, balloons, and discount
co upo ns to advertise, the staff
pro moted, published, and
provided the biggest literary
magazine to date. "This is the first
yea r students received a class
cred it for the course," said Mrs.
Nancy Rosenbaum, adviser.
It was also a yea r of first and lasts
for the Sabre staff . When the '79
Sabre received its first Trophy
Awa rd fro m t he Virginia High
Schoo l League, t he 1980 staff was
deter min e d to keep up the
mome ntum. "We started things
off by lea rning how to paste up
our pages , submitting the copy
ca mera -ready, " said junior David
M iln er. "See in g the way the paper
looked befo re it came off th e
press c ut dow n on printer's mista kes and saved us money, too,"
• • •
he said. "The staff was especially
anxious to cut down on mistakes
since we knew this would be Mrs.
(Jane) Brill 's last year to advise the
Sabre," said editor-in-chief Lisa
Via. "We wanted to make it especially good for her."
The Colonel staff, too, hoped it
would be a year of firsts, not lasts.
Riding on a string of four Five Star
and three Trendsetter Awards, the
staff knew it only took one year to
plumment from top to bottom of
the yearbook ratings. "We were
determined not to let that happen ," said editor-in-chief Tom
Wilmoth.
Both the newspaper and yearbook staffs sold M&M's to
sweeten their budgets . The Sabre
staff members needed the sales to
publish nine issues while the yearbook staff sold M&M's to finance
their trip to attend the CSPA convention in New York. Braving the
six inches of snow and frigid
weather there seemed out of
pl ace for those used to the heat of
deadlines.
"Putting out the publications at
Fleming may not rank in
prestige," said Colonel editor
Tom Wilmoth. "But it g ives you a
warm feeling watching those
pages co m e hot ."

Her red pen has earned her
the nickname "The Silent

of expertise has left its red
marks upon more than her

a nd front page stories, Mrs.
Jane S. Brill has also left her
mark of excellence upon far
more than her fair share of
stu dent writers.
The May issue will mark
h e r Iast as adviser to the
Sabre. She has decided to
teach English full-time. In
the six years she has been
advising the newspaper, the
Sabre has grown from 480
sub sc riptions to over 1,200 from an eight-page tabloid
to a sixteen-page Trophywinn ing monthly.
He r value to the hundreds

two small words for fifty-four

to journalism co nventions.
But until her " Silent

better way for us to sa y
"thanks," those two words
will have to do.

Two for the show, senior fullback
Jeff Barnett (24) shakes an Eagle
tackle {below) to score for the first
of hi s two touchdowns in the
Franklin County game. His second
(righl) left him with 'one shoe off
and one shoe on '. The gridders
blanked the Eagles in a Fleming
grande finale 27-0.
With a shaky start the Colonels had a Shakespearean ending
'All's Well That
Ends Well
Assistant Coach George
Mil ler put it this way: "We
beat the champs and lost to
the ch umps." A RoanokeTimes sportswriter put it
another way: "They beat
everybody in their district,
including themselves." A
Fleming fan put it yet
another way: "After losses
last year, we'd say we were
lucky to co me out alive, but
this year, we'd say we
shou ld've beaten 'em."
The three were sayi ng the
same thing. The Colone ls, 55 for the seas on, beat t he
pre-season favorites , while
succum bing to the loca l lowboys. "In the process of
dodging the big boys'
bullets," said Head Coach
John McGrego r, "we forgot
to fire some of our own. We
just couldn 't seem to put
those underdogs away ."
The Colonels started the
season on the road at E.C.
Glass, but they didn't bring
home the long-elusive
souvenir they had hoped for .
While the gridders lost again
for the third consecutive
year, they found the going
on the ground much easier
than in the air as they outgained Glass 30 yards in
rushing, but failed to gain
any in the air, losing 16-6.
Fleming found the Victory
Stadium climate much more
pleasing as it trounced
Heritage, 28-6. Senior quarterback Roger Ferguson
played the best game of his
career as he threw for 212
yard s.
"I've got to hand it to our
defense , though," commented Ferguson. "They just
shut the m down."
The Colone l offense too k
a turn for the worse at
Salem's Municipal Field. In
what eventually became a
punting duel, Fleming's offense gained only 87 yards
total, no where close to the
411 yards in the same
category against Heritage
the previous week. A fourthquarter Spartan touchdown
and a muffed field goal attempt by Fleming left the
Colonels on the short end of
the 8-6 score.
The
Colonel
clan,
however, got back on the
track during a stopover at
Halifax County, where the
gridders topped the Comets
24-8. The team then hit a rut
as they fell into a three-game
slump. Northside, with the
help of five Fleming turnove rs, ave nged a Colonel
vandal spree by vandalizing
the Colonels 32 -13 .

Well
quarter, the Colonels'
defense absorbed the Cave
Spring offensive bounce in
blank ing the Knights 9-0.
Aided by the barks of
Mike Sa unders and Darryl
Robinson, Fleming outbit
the Bulldogs of Martinsville
13-9. Junior Darryl Robinson
showed his All-Metro colors
in gaining 150 yards in 27
carries, including a threeyard touchdow n run in the
second quarter. Defensive
back Mike Saunders,
however, literally stole the
show with two key pass interceptions . On the last play
of the game, Saunders put
the final bite on the Bulldogs
by deflecting a desperation
pass in the end zone.
"It was a great feeling to
play the role of the sp oilers
this time," commented
senior Jeff Barnett. "Even
thoug h we were knocked
out of the post-season picture early, we still got to
knock out Cave Spring's and
cont.
Martinsville's play-off
hopes."
In the season finale, Fleming continued its devouring
ways by consuming Franklin
County 27-0. The new-found
strength of the Colonel
defense allowed the Eagles
to claw for a measly 50 yards.
The
Colonel
defense
ended the season this way:
by shutting out their opponents in the final three and a
half games. The team ended
it another way : by putting
four players on the AllMetro squad. Head Coach
John McGregor summed it
up yet another way: "While
we didn't become the district big shot, we did make a
few bangs in the end."
With time ticking away, juniors Tim

Lfe has its ups and downs.
Philosophers say it; the cross
country team saw it. In an
uphill battle for the district
championship, the harriers
found themselves king of the
hil I.
Coach Len Mosser, who
has turned the cross country
program around in his four
years at the helm, knew
be fore the season began that
his team would amount to
far more than a hill of beans.
Over 25 prospects joined
veteran runners Eddy Weddle, Winston Corbett, Larry
Meadors, and Chris Harrell.
"I knew the team had potential, " said Coach Mosser. "I
just wanted the runners to
peak at the right time."
Fl e ming opened the
se ason with a 23-32 victory

No rthside. " With a high prese ason ranking , we knew it

was important to get off to a
good start," said senior
Winston Corbett. "We had
to prove that our ranking
was more than a piece of
paper ."
That ranking stood the
next test in a tri-meet against
cross-town rivals. The
Colonels crushed Patrick
Henry 17-45 and Cave Spring
19-42. Then the harriers built
up a 15-45 lead over the
Franklin County Eagles.
"We were flying high after
those first four victories,"
said senior Larry Meadors.
The Colonels , however,
met a higher flying Byrd . In a
tri-meet against William Byrd
and Salem, the Colonels beat
Salem 25-30, but lost to Byrd
19-35. The loss and an even
closer one to Pulaski County
(29-27) squelched the team's
hopes for a perfect record .

Working overtime

When a person works
overtime, he expects timeand-a-half to show up in his
next paycheck. VVhen the
varsity basketball team took
to the courts, they found
that working overtime didn't
mean bigger paychecks, but
more often than not, winning points . Dubbed "Aces
o f Overtime" b y the
Roan o k e T imes, the
Colonels tied in the final
seconds and went into a
record 12 ove rtimes , pulling
o u t a 13-8 tally for the
season .

30-28. "Our first games were
tough, plus they were away
games," said Coach Burrall
Paye, "so I think they helped
strengthen us for what was
ahead ."
A string of twelve district
games left no room to relax
for the Colonels. Taking on
the defending district champions , Patrick Henry, the
cagers got off to a shaky
start. Going into the second
half with a twelve point
deficit, they knew they had
their work cut out for them .
Using a tight press and sharp
shooting, they sent the game
into overtime. Two Patriot
free throws decided the
game as the Colonels fell 5048 . In the next contest with
the Patriots , the Colonels
faced a double dose of overtime, but still came up on the
short end of a 45-43 score .
" Patrick Henry has a mystique surrounding it" said
senior Romeo VVard. "We
were psyched out during the
first half of the first game,
but we finally realized that
we were as good as they
were. Unfortunately, the
scoreboard didn't show it."
Halifax provided the only
break in the string of district
games as the Fleming
Colonels doused the Comets
43-28. After an easy game
with Northside, the Colonels
fell victim to their third overtime loss against Cave
Spring. Later in the season
they couldn't overcome the
Timesland ranking jinx in
their second loss to the
Knights .

Overtime
commented center Tom
Bourne. "We didn't think of
them as rivals-to us it was
just another game." With
three consecutive overtime
games, Pulaski, Patrick
Henry and Northside, the
Colonels became veterans of
o ve rtime . In a triple overtime game with Pulaski,
Fleming showed the Cougars
just how the job was done as
they whipped Pulaski 64-59.
A lmost caught by surprise,
Fleming went on to double
ov ertime with Northside.
Th e Colonels , however,
finall y surpassed the Vikings
51-49 . "W hen we went into

"At season's end we lost

commented Ward . "We
were kind of like a light

on, sometimes we were off."
"Overall, I was very
pleased with our season,"

Th e fir st fi ve games of the

Colonels' strategy would
work as they clinched victories over E.C. Glass, Halifax
and Charlottesville. " In the
beginning, we had a few
doubts ," said forward
Sheldon Johnson, " but we
eventually built up our confidence ." As the Colonels
built confidence, they also
built th eir string of wins

prepared t hemselves for the
20-point victo ry predict ed by
the Roan o k e Times and
World News. Instead, they
saw the Knights tied at the
half, battling to the last
seconds of the game for a
t hree-point Cave Sp rin g win.
"We p layed Cave Sprin g in
a pre- seaso n ga m e and came
away w ith what we t hought
was a victo ry," commented
senior fo rwa rd Kaye Turner .
"Su r e we l ost o n the
sc o reboard, but because we
pla yed the m so close, we
knew we co uld beat the m
next t ime."
Th e 'next ti m e' also occurred in t he Co lonels' gym ,
b ut in t his district ga me,
both te ams had somet hin g
to p rove. "When we went
in to t hat game, we had to
prove to Cav e Spring and the
pres s t h at t he firs t •game
was n 't a fluk e, " said j unior
forward Ci nd y Ca rty.

the Knights wanted to prove
they were number one. Four
quarters later, the Knights
saw the score tied and an excited Colonel squad
prepared for overtime.
Three minutes later, the
number one spot belonged
to the Colonels with a score
of 57-52.
Chalking up victories
against Franklin County,
Salem, Pulaski, P.H. , and
Northside, Fleming once
again faced Cave Spring . No
upset occurred in this game
as Cave Spring overtook the
Colonels 46-33.
Bouncing back with four
more victories, the streaking
Colonels met with disaster as
the Spartans of Salem upset
t he girls 52-49 .
Finishing second in the
regular season, the Colonels
eas ily handled Pulaski in the
first round of the tournament . Looking lik e a repeat
performance of the Pulaski
game, the Colonels led P.H .
at the half by 15 points. The
fourth quarter proved
almost fatal as the Colonels
sco red only two points and
sk imm ed by the Patriots, 3431 .
Hoping the championship
wou ldn 't make the fatality
list, the Colonels met Cave
Sp ring at the Sa lem Civic
Center. At the half, the
Co lonels led by one . But the
seco nd half proved deadly as
the Co lone ls fell 51-43. " I
was so upset after th e game
that I co uldn't slee p, " sa id
Kaye Turner. "But our on e
upset against Cave Spri ng
help ed ease th e pa in ."

As Good as Gold
~
When gold reached $500
an ou nee, the wizards of
Wall Street said it would
never climb higher. Two
weeks later, gold peaked at
$850 and people began to
feel the pinch. Juniors complained when the price of
class rings doubled, and
'i people started prying out
gold fillings to trade for a

fistful of cash.
For some of the 40
hopefuls who tried out for
the wrestling team, the price
of gold had soared too high.
"We started the season with
40 wrestlers, " said Coach
Miller. "We ended up with
22 . Wrestling takes a special
kind of kid - one who has
determination and pride .
They just didn't come out
and mess around. We tried
to make it fun, but we
wanted them to know that
nothing comes easily."
The Colonels began like
champions as they traveled
to Waynesboro for their first
match of the season, paralyzing the Little Indians 47-3.
The second match against
Gar-Field proved to be the
real test as the Colonels took
on the defending Northwest
Regional champion . Fleming
avenged the Indians 30-23.
"Gar-Field may have been
champions but Coach Miller
reminded us that they put
their pants on the same way
we do," said 98-pounder
Reggie Brandon.
On the same day, after the
Colonels squeezed by GarField, they took on another
powerhouse, the Colonels of
James Wood High School.
The two Colonels battled to
a 34-17 victory for Fleming.
"After the trip to Northern
Virginia, we knew that our
quest for the gold might pan
out," said junior Brad Bailey.
" Our goal was simple," he
said. "We just wanted to win
everything."
'Everything ' seemed to fall
in place as the wrestlers
locked horns with William
Byrd and undefeated Cave

Their records sounded too

the Colonels since the
league's formation in 1975).
They also had lined up eight

Fleming piled up huge

Cosmopolitan Meet and
were
never

didn ' t find the Roanoke

runaway at all. The Colonels
trailed midway through the
meet for the first time all
season , and the girls didn't
clin ch their victory until the
last event. Trailing Patrick

and kept it after its 800meter rela y team set a distri ct record. Then Pulaski

Fleming's girls' team, running neck and neck with
Pulaski County, watched district records tumble as
Deborah Hale set a mark in
the long jump, Vivian Curtis
won the 800 meter, and the
400 meter relay team came
out on top. But they didn't
clinch their championship
until the last event, the mile
relay.
"That's our strong point,"
said Coach Barlow. "We
have a lot of confidence in
our mile relay team." When
Vivian Curtis, who anchored
the relay team, snapped
across the finish line, Fleming pulled ahead of Pulaski
108-98.
"I respect each team," said
Bolden . "Each has individuals that could rise to
the occasion . But I'll tell you

Last week our word was

A new gymnastics team and a
struggling golf team caught the
jist of ...
Revival
and
Survival
When Coach Bob LeNoir
issued a call for golfers, he
knew he wouldn't have to
reserve the Civic Center for
the turnout. In fact, he was
hoping they couldn't all fit in
a phone booth.
"I had to go around and
beg to get a team of six," he
said. "There are not 20 kids
in this school who know a
putter from a sand wedge."
According to Coach
LeNoir, two of his players,
Steve Firebaugh and Billy
Thompson, could shoot in
the 80 's, and two others
could shoot in the 90's. The
team managed to finish sixth
in the Metro above Franklin
County and William Byrd.
"Everyone expected us to
finish last, but we pulled
through ," commented
Firebaugh. "Coach LeNoir
got us up for the Metro and
was always willing to help
us."
Although the golf team
had a hard time finding six
players, the gymnastic team
had to worry about revival
before they could think
about survival. Without a
team for two years, first-year
Coach Charlotte Lee molded
the 20 girls who came out for
the team into a competitive
squad . "At first, no one
knew how much work was
required," said Coach Lee .
"When they found out ,
some left, but the eight who
stayed cared enough to
practice six days a week. "
According to Coach Lee ,
Liz Radford and Cind y Waid
developed into the team
leaders, and the team
worked out routines good
enough to beat Franklin
County.
"We helped each other
over the rough spots," said
Dana Vaughn . "Miss Lee was
always behind us , beside us ,
and even practiced with us."
"You could say she
revived us," added Radford.
"W ithout her, the team
would have died. "
Behind the bark, Tom Shelton
drives out of th e tr ees ba ck o nto the

outscored the Celtics 359-408.

Unable to score their first victory,
the boys' and girls' tennis teams
realized that they were ...
Falling in Love
Romeo fell in love with
Juliet. Bonnie fell in love
with Clyde. Rhett fell in love
with Scarlet. But the boys'
and girls' tennis teams didn't
feel Cupid 's arrows in their
hearts when they fell in love.
In fact, they didn't seem
happy about it at all.
"Nobody's ever happy
about losing," said junior
Joan Whitlock, who played
second on the girls' team.
"We had only two starters
coming back, and we played
teams with tremendous ad-
The first win also eluded
the boys' tennis team, which
also finished 0-15. The team
lost three of its top six
players early in the season
and from then on faced an
uphill climb.
While the rest of the team
struggled, top-seeded James
Easthom coasted to an undefeated season. He
bypassed the Roanoke
Valley District Tournament

Legend has it that Fido is
man's best friend.
But best friends didn't always wear fur coats and wag
bushy tails. Some helped their
partners through a trust walk
at Valle Cruds. Others gave up
lunch for someone who
needed a frisbee partner or a
shoulder to cry on more than
they needed a piece of pizza.
Some spent late nights inking
papers with words like awk, pv
and ww.
Anyone whoever shared
secrets at midnight or between classes or during break
knew that a best friend was
something to bark about, even
if his name wasn't Fido.

A New Year's Resolution
Poets say that in May, hope springs
eternal, but students know the most
hopeful time of all is the first week of
school. That's the time when a person says to himself, "This year, I'll
make straight A's" or "This time, I
won't put homework off until the
last minute" or "This week, I'll meet
Mr. Right." But all those promises
only last until the schedule confirms
"AP English" or the history questions
are due the day after "Mork and
Mindy" and "White Shadow" or you
see your Mr. Right in the bleachers
with Miss Wrong.
For 1,838 hopeful Colonels, the
first week of school meant asking
classmates about teachers who had
been here before and sizing up the
15 faculty members who were new
to the school. For Camper Hall students, it meant finding Mr. Michael
Bryant in the office where Mr. Tom
Dixon had held court for so many
years. For the football team, it meant
sizing up the team from Amherst,
and coming out ahead in a 21-0
shutout. For almost everyone, it
meant hoping Labor Day won't live
up to its name, and that the last blast
of summer wouldn't fizzle with the
rain.

Three's a Charm
Hats on. Senior Judy Clarke sports a widebrimmed h a t in th e cafeteria. Seniors wore
hats on days of p e p assemblies.
Lights, cameras, and action invaded Colonel Country as the
Colonels rounded out its third full
week of school. Seniors and underclassmen were saying "cheese",
while Kennedy was giving Carter
some other food for thought, announcing he "might be interested"
in the Democratic nomination. As
Hurricane Frederick sent showers to
the Roanoke Valley, the Colonels
took the world of sports by storm,
too. The volleyball team sent
powerhouse Patrick Henry home
with a good licking, and the football
team stormed past Heritage 28 to 6.
"It was a long time coming," said
Head Coach John McGregor.

When It Rains, It's Poor
Stormy Weather was a theme song
for a week when it rained tour days
and poured the fifth. People began
to think London Fogs replaced
Wrangle rs as the name brand of the
week, and girls with drooping hair
and frizzing afros vowed, "Wet Was
Beautifu l" . In a week that rained, not
all was wet, though. The volleyball
and cross country continued a winning streak.
The NAACP Conventio n hosted
speake rs Benjamin Hooks and Ozzie
Davis . Dr. Thelma Spencer conducted sessions for minority students
on how to tak e College Boards.
Many of the same students who
were afraid of bombing on college
tests sat idly in the cafeteria as bel Is
sounded to dismiss classes for a
bomb threat. Later in the week,
cheer leaders dressed as football
players and threw touchdown passes
to one another at the pep assembly.
Football players, dressed as
cheerleaders, tried a routine, but
they bombed in their efforts.
They say every cloud has a silver
lining, but for the Colonels, it wasn't
found on the football field. Losing to
Salem by two points, the Colonels
sloshed home to think about a week
when Noah's Ark would have felt
right at home.

It was the last week in September,
but by no means, the least. Finally,
yearbook staff members could
answer the never-ending question,
"When are the yearbooks coming"
with a smile and the word
"tomorrow".
As one yearbook crossed the finish
line, another one was starting the
race. Students lined up for underclass pictures for the second time in
two weeks since someone broke the
camera the first time around. Guys
complained at having to wear coats
and ties again , but girls thought the
guys looked "picture perfect " .
Although students were upset
with the fact that they had to smile
for the camera a second time
around , they were pleased with the
winning streak for school teams . The
football team w on their g ame against
Halifa x; volleyball defeated Salem
and Ca ve Spring ; the cross count ry
team w on its m eet against No rt hside.

A Name Brand Week
It was a week when millions paid
homage to the Pope, and a few paid
homage to Northside. Spurred on by
rumors of Northside pranks, a few
over-zealous students brought a
Northside sign back to Colonel
Country and left a brand on the Viking field.
On his five-city tour to America,
the Pope left his good will
throughout the nation. Colonels,
too, prayed not only for peace, but
for strength to get through their first
six weeks tests. Not even the Pope's
blessings seemed to help much.
As t he Orioles and Pirates headed
for the World Series, the Colonels
faced Northside on the gridiron.
Although the team hoped to vandalize the Vikings, they had to settle
for a 32-13 loss instead .

Thanks For the Memories
Homecoming week was one of
those weeks that left one weak.
Something different appeared on
the agenda each day, and students
used to a steady diet of Wranglers,
corduroys, and alligators switched to
fashions of a different kind. Fifty's
Day, Fashion Day, Serf Day, Hat Day,
and Blue and Gold Day brought new
faces to the best-dressed list, with
Brad Bailey, James Eastham, and
Gerald Robinson causing second
glances all day long.
The rain on homecoming night
didn't stop the band from parading
through downtown Roanoke, and it
didn't stop the crowning of Cathy
Harris as queen or Lori Baker as maid
of honor. But the crowd did have a
hard time balancing their umbrellas
and clapping at the same time.

Six Down, Thirty to Go
Wate rlogged from the previous
week's rains, students hoped they
would n't be drowning below "C"
leve l when report cards arrived on
Monday. Although some struggled
against a tide of low grades, 204 students surfaced on the honor roll for
the first s ix weeks.
Honors also came for the
marching band, who came home
from Elon, North Carolina, with a
Superior rating. The football team
was not so lucky, leaving Victory
Stadium with a 14-0 loss to Patrick
Henry.
The week was a good one for
sweet hearts and sweet tooths. The
Senior Home-ec class married Dawn
Grinnell and Jeff Durham in a mock
wedding, complete with cake and
confetti. The Beta Club began its sale
of M & M's, and its 41 members peddled 83 cases for $800 profit.

More Treats Than Tricks
The week before Halloween was a
spooky time. The ghost of things to
come made an appearance when
juniors took their PSATs and seniors
talked to representatives of Va. Tech,
VCU, Hollins, and Radford who set
up shop in the senior cafeteria.
"College," they reminded, "is just
around the corner."
As juniors were worrying about
racking up points on PSATs, the football, volleyball, and cross country
teams were worrying about points of
a different kind . The fin a l sco re s
proved non e of th e th ree h ad
anything to w o rry a bo ut. The
Colon e ls shut out Cave Spri ng 9-0 in
football, th e volleyba ll team whip p e d Patric k Henry an d No rt hside

the d istrict titl e away from former

A Country •1n Crisis
President Carter is known for his
smile, but November 3, he was not
smiling. Iranian students demanding
the Shah's extradition from the U.S.
to Iran seized the U.S. Embassy in
Teheran, and 50 Americans were
held hostage. With a somber face,
the President assured the country at
a news conference that the U.S.
would not submit to blackmail. At
school students wore black armbands and signed petitions
protesting the siege of the embassy.
As the President pondered the
crisis in I ran, other presidential
hopefuls threw their names into the

tured north for the senior trip witnessed the Boston announcement of
Senator Ted Kennedy as a
Democratic contender. The seniors
also toured New York City and
Philadelphia.
Back home, students found that
cold weather and homework were
taking a few prisoners of their own.
Sunny skies disappeared, and the
smoking block looked empty
because it was just too cold for comfort. The Colonels warmed up
though , as they knicked a powerful
Martinsville right off the field with a
13-9 victory.

Of Bells, Ballots, and Armbands
In a week for winners and losers,
Ray Garland ousted longtime
Senator Bill Hopkins for the Virginia
Senate. Chip Woodrum and Vic
Tho mas took seats in the House of
Representatives as Fleming's English
teac her, Mrs. Beth Brooks, also appeared on the ballot for the House.
As some 18 year-old seniors were
cast ing thei r first ballots, others on
the Senior Trip were looking at the
birthplace of our government. The
trip wound down with a visit to Independence Hall in Philadelphia and
a glimpse of the Liberty Bell .
The Liberty Bell was not the only
bell silenced on election day. Students on a holiday stayed home as
their parents went to school for
Parent Confere nce Day.
Most of the conversation on
campus, however, centered not
around grades, but around the fate
of the 50 Americans held hostage by
radical students in Iran. Students
wore white arm bands provided by
WROV in support of the hostages.
They knew it wasn't much, but at
least it was something.
Table talk. Mr. Calvin Jamison, a representative from Virginia Tech, talks to William
Grogan and Anthony Thurman during lunch .

It's All in the Game
The Fleming campus wasn't exactly Ghost Town USA, but it did
seem empty when juniors headed to
the Civic Center to take SRA tests.
The sidewalks no longer were crowded, and the lunch line was shorter.
The school just didn't seem the
same.
But the ghost town came to life as
the guys battled the girls to a 12-0
victory in the SCA's flamingo footb a 11 game . Not even freezing
weather kept spectators from cheering for this battle of the sexes . Students put away footballs and took up

student team tallied more points
than the teachers, but most of the

watching teachers make donkeys of
themselves was more fun than winning.
With the spectre of no prom
haunting the Junior Class, members
rallied support by selling memo
boards . The Beta Club rounded up
two baskets of canned goods for
needy families. Making money for
good causes seemed to breathe life
into a campus tha t had seemed like a
ghost town just a few days before .
Though thousands of miles awa y,

As college students, too, headed

for a concert by the National Theater

co ntinu ed its sale of memo boards,
making $677 for the prom still six
months away. The Girls Club, too,
got into the arena with elephants,
monkeys, penguins, dogs , and tigers,
but they didn 't tame them; they sold
them. Th ei r stuffe d-animal sale
grossed $518 for the Christmas

Whe n not selling memo boards or
stuffed animals, students were selling their teams . Since the end of
footba ll seaso n, Colonel Country
had been too quiet for comfort. The
cheerleaders, Colonel Crack-ups,
and Hee Haw Gang put an end to
that silence when their pep assembly
introduced the basketball teams,
wrestlers, grapplettes, and gymnasts.
While the gymnastics team grappled with the uneven bars and
balance beam, the country kept on
grappling with the crisis in Iran . The
Shah's move from his New York
hospital to an army base in Texas
angered the Ayatollah .
Just as the country was learning to

crisis , it was numbed by another
tragedy. Eleven students were stampeded to death at The Who's concert

Wrapped up in Christmas
It was beginning to look a lot like
Christmas . The Red Cross members
visited the Veterans Hospital and
shared carols, candy, and Christmas
cards with the patients they entertained. Th e residents of McVitty

Claus" . VICA members, too, remembered special friends at Christmas,
collecting pet food for the dogs and
cats at the SPCA.
The band, choir, drama class, and
string orchestra joined forces for a
PTSA Christmas program . Christmas
carols gave way to disco as sixty-two
couples turned out for the Girls '

In the Nick of Time
Twas the week before Christmas,
and all through this house, most
people were stirring .
Drama students scurried about
braiding reindeer "horns" for the
skit they presented at the Christmas
assembly. Choir, band , and strings
members rehearsed for their halfhour concert of carols and cantatas,
also part of that assembly . Even Santa
paid a visit to Colonel Country, and
if he looked a little like Barry
Belcher, it was purely coincidental.
After the concert, foreign
language students knew they had a
hard act to follow, but at least, they
tried. Sounds of "Noche de Paz,"
"Vive le Vent," "O Tannebaum,"
and "Adeste Fideles" filled the halls
as the French, German, Latin, and
Spanish students made their rounds.
As the students left school for a
two-week vacation, the Shah left the
United States to live in exile in Panama. Three American clergymen
flew to I ran to hold Christmas services for the men and women whose
release would have been the best
Christmas present of all.

Starting All Over Again
The newness of the decade hadn't
worn off as students moped back to
school after a two-week Christmas
holiday. Talk centered around new
Christmas presents and the Bowl
Games (especially the 17-16 victory
of the University of Southern
California over Ohio State in the
Rose Bowl). But no sooner had the
talk about football begun to dim
than basketball predictions began to
surface. The varsity, junior varsity,

Rescheduled because of a death in
the family of a cast member, "Bus
Stop" opened a three -night run in
Dickinson Auditorium. On t he
second day of the play, heavy snow
blanketed the Roanoke Valley, closing school early on Friday, and thinning the crowds for the play ' s final
performances. The actors acted as if
the house had been full, but some
were seen twirling the frustration

before.

Christmas was over, but for some,
Christmas was not over. Foreign
Language students celebrated it a little late; on January 7, Epiphany, they
brought tacos, beef bourguinon, and
wiener schnitzel to the cafeteria for a
pot-luck banquet.
Several Colonels took home
honors. Joan Whitlock, a junior,
received the Southwest Virginia
Community Development award,
enabling her to attend the Presidential Classroom in Washington, D.C.
Dierich Kaiser and Julie Webb accepted the DAR Good Citizens
Awards.
Victories also came the way of
Colonels on the mats, courts, and
Klassroom Kwiz panel. The boys'
basketball team celebrated the New
Year with a 71-49 rout of Northside.
The girls' basketball team stopped
Cave Spring's winning streak, and
the wrestlers outgrappled Cave
Spring for the district title.
Alan Martin, Judy Clarke, and Kim
Co le man began a winning streak of a
different kind. Chosen to represent
Fleming on Klassroom Kwiz, the ,
scored 220 points to Franklin
County's 200, becoming the new
champions to face Lord Botetourt.
To make the week perfect, the
season's first snow blanketed the

The Moment of Truth
It was a week of good news and
bad news . The 'bad news' was the
semester exam required in every
course. The 'good news' was that
students left school at 1 :00, after
their second exam of the day. The
better news was the Friday holiday
for students, when teachers graded
the exams to determine just how bad
the bad news was. The best news was
the second victory of the Klassroom
Kwiz panel, against Lord Botetourt.
On a national level, bad news continued to dam i nate head Ii nes.
American reporters were ordered to
leave Iran . The Russians' invasion of
Afghanistan brought President Carter to boycott the Olympics in
Moscow , begin an embargo against
Russia, and consider reinstating the
draft.

Just a Rough Draft
For several years, the only draft
young men talked about was the
kind that came in a glass. This week,
talk of another draft dominated conversations . Seniors pondered Pr e sid ent Carter's proposed registration,
wondering if women, too, would be
ask ed to serve . Others wondered
what effects the Ayatollah
Khom eini 's hospitalization for heart
trouble would have on the crisis in
Iran.
While students talked of GI haircuts and army fatigues, the campus
took on a different look. A new
c hain fence separated the campus
from the rest of the world. But students in Mrs . Jane Brill's AP English
c las s managed to get out long
e nough for a trip to Richmond to see
"Waiting for Godot."
Stud e nts ventured home from
Ri c hmond to find the school short of
funds for custodial help. At the end
of the day , students were drafted to
put chairs on top of desks to make
c leaning easier for building
managers and their staffs .

Making the Mark
As the Colonels greeted the coming of February, an unwanted visitor,
the report card, paid them a visit.
Both the girls' and boys' basketball
teams cut the grade as they grabbed
wins during the week. The boys
defeated Northside 51-49 while the
ladies defeated Catholic.
Judgement day also came for the
Cougars of Pulaski County when
Fleming came calling on the Pulaski
team and won 37-20.
Candy scored high marks with
clubs and other organizations
around the campus . Students dealt
sweets for everything from community projects to the upcoming
Prom.
ROTC members used cords, not
cards, to show for their efforts as
they held a promotion assembly in
the gym.
While several Colonels found the
going rough in the classroom, man y
others, including wrestlers and
ROTC members , found it worth the
trip .
On the right track. Mr. John Fi shwi c k, pr es id e nt of Norfolk and W est e rn , dis cu sses his
lin e of work with symposium members .
A balancing act. Se nior Kelly Hall tabulates on

Odds and Ends
For some, it was a week of odds.
For others, it was a week of ends. For
Colon els , it was both.
An un ex pected snow put an end
to school. Dr. M . Don Pack, Superintend ent of Roanoke Cit y Schools,
saw his second term come to an
abrupt e nd . Seniors experienced the
beginning of the end b y ordering
th eir caps and gown s.
But it w as a week of odds, too .
Pr es id e nt Carter sent heavyweight
bo xin g champion Muhammad Ali to
A frica. A li 's mission was to build support for the Olympic boycott.
While the U.S. was at odds with
Russia , an odd couple of films were
at Fleming . Students paid SO<t for an
hour of laughs at "The Legend of
Jimmy Blue Eyes" and "The Three
Stooges " , shown in the auditorium
during school.
The SCA began its sale of carnations for Valentine's Day distribution . Girls began taking odds on
wh eth er one would come their way .

Heart to Heart Talk
One teacher received a valentine
saying she was "pretty enough to be
in movies, popular enough to be in
Who's Who, talented enough to be
in Carnegie Hall but smart
enough not to believe a word on the
card." For most, though, Valentine's
Day was a day of hearts and flowers.
The SCA delivered carnations to
both girls and guys, and they paid a
dime to find out who sent them.
Other celebrations also blossomed
in February. Celebrating Black
Heritage Week, the NAACP Youth
Really role-ing. Se nior Jud y Clarke auditions
for th e role of Popova in the one act pla y "The
Boar."
Council honored Fleming students
at a Youth Appreciation Banquet.
Dierich Kaiser, Melissa Woodliff,
Connie Moore, and Charlotte Yuille
were honored for academic achievement. Alan Bagby, Michael Horton
and Connie Moore were commended for community service .
Romeo Ward, Kaye Turner, Greg
Williams, and Sydney Arrington
were cited for athletic accomplishments .
Fleming fans didn't need a Valentine card to make them believe in
the basketball team as the Colonels
won a string of overtime games.

A Lot of Hot Air
Although Chicago firefighters
stayed off the job while on strike,
Roanoke firefighters stayed on the
job, responding to a fire in Smith
Hall. Although the 'fire' proved
mostly smoke, the students marched
outside, hoping their books would
burn . Others shivered until the
firemen said the radiator was safe
again.
As the odor from the fire lingered,
Colone ls went about their business.
Mr. Len Mosser's government
classes continued their mock trials.
Th e Golden Colonels Stage Band
also had a trial run , appearing for
students during third period before
being filmed on "Panorama" . In
t heir new uniforms, they played
"McArthur Park," "Blame it on the
Boogie" and "All Weekend." Mrs.
Claudine Ferrell, president of the
Band Boosters, and Mr. Ralph Hoyle,
the group's treasurer, fielded questions from Polly Ayers, the show's
hostess.
The seige of hot weather on Friday
seemed out of place in February, but
no one complained. They just hoped
that the work of the Commission investigating the Shah of Iran would
help the hostages get home in time
to enjoy the spring that was just
around the corner.

A March in the Snow
The March that came in like a lion
kept roaring the first week. Twelve
inches of snow fell on the Roanoke
Valle y, and students celebrated an
une x pe cted thr ee-da y weekend
when school was cancelled Monday
b ecause of th e weather.
When the snow began to melt, the
politics began to heat up, too .
Seniors voted in a mock election in
t he library. After finding their way
around the voting machines, they
pushed levers to elect Carter and
Reagan for the Democratic and
Republi can primaries.
As Reagan and Carter were stealing th e election, thr ee representa ti ve s from the Roanoke
Neighborhood Alliance brought
crime prevention to the stage of the
Senior Cafeteria.
Mr. Ben Tyree, Mr. Roger Wells,
and Mr. Howard Garfield talked
about the use of drugs, alcohol, and
criminal behavior .
The Band Boosters iced the week
with a spaghetti supper and the
wrestlers braved the snow for the
State Tournament, held in Roanoke.

Second Time Around
Lik e the song made famous by
Shalamar, Colonels hoped things
would be better the second time
around. The juniors who didn't pass
the competency test as well as
sophomores had another chance to
improve their scores.
The faculty, too, had a chance to
relive their high school basketball
days during the student-faculty
games. With 'Country Boy ' Mosser,
'Goldie Locks' Oliver and 'Frog Legs'
Barlow, the teachers managed to
defeat the students 50-42.
After their district competition in
Pulaski, the Fleming Players performed their one-act play, "The
Boar" for a second time in Dickinson
Auditorium. The cast included
seniors Judy Clarke, Hughie Dalton,
Geoffrey Peters, Heather Simmons ,
and junior Frank Harris.
Although for the Colonels the first
time around wasn ' t all that bad , the y
found that the second time around
was even better .

Feeding a Fever
Although students began the
week on the second day of spring,
the Colonels found themselves stuck
with campaign fever , not spring
fever.
The candidates for the '80- '81 SCA
offices wrapped up their campaigns .
After the election assembly, the stu dents elected John Notsinger, president; Deidra Tucker , vice-president;
Terrance Drew, secretary; Lori Bixby,
treasu rer-h istoria n.
The Red Cross politick ed for
money instead of votes in their Mile
of Pennies drive. The club members
collected a total of $40.32, a big step
forward in their campaign.
Virginia State Senator Ray Garland
visited Fl e ming not to gain votes , but
to answer questions. Mr. Garland
spoke to government classes about
the Virginia Legislature . In a role
c hang e, the Governor's school
e lec ted thr ee Fl e ming students, Kim
Coleman, Laura Markham, and Victor Sparrow to attend the Governor's
School for the Gifted.
Larry Burton, a gifted athlete,
crusaded to seniors about the importa n ce of religion. Burton's career in
sports included the 1972 Olympics as
well as professional football.
The baseball team started winning
a sea son of their own when they
sprung to a 5-0 win over
C hri stiansburg .

A Good Stopping Point
As Easter va cation neared, stud e nts found act1v1t1es scattered
around the campus . It seemed like
th e Easter bunny had already
brought his surprises for the fourteen girls who discovered themselves members of the 1980-81 Varsity Cheerleading squad. Thirty girls
turned out two weeks earlier for five
days of practice, interviews with
three judges, and two days of tryouts.
Fre shmen tried out the Fleming
campus wh en they toured the halls
with upper-classmen. The students
later gathered in Dickinson
Auditorium for a slide presentation
by Mrs . Doris Egge. Mr. James Wood
w e lcomed the future students and
introduced th e m about school functions and rules.
A band and choir assembly once
again filled the auditorium with students. The band performed several
songs, including "650 East," "Trail
Scen es," and the dazzling "Spanish
Fe ve r." The choir rocked the
audi e nce with " Summer Ni g hts " and
" Yo u're th e On e that I Want " from
th e Movi e Grease. Oth e r selections
included " Rock and Roll," "Party
Qu ee n" and " Who Says I Can't Rea d
prom costs .
Talk of car costs circulated in the
library as Mr. Hayward Statum, president of Statum Chevrolet, visited
with Symposium members. Mr.
Statum discussed the different
aspects of his car dealership and explained how his slogan, "The Apple
of Your Eye is on our Lot" came into
use.
Colonels envisioned warm
weather and Easter surprises as
school ended Friday. Students and
te achers alike looked forward to
nine days of vacation before returning for the last nine weeks of school.

On Top of the World
Seniors exchanging calling cards
and signing memory books and
juniors deciding on the prom theme
all felt the same way - on top of the
world. With 14 kinds of type from
which to choose, most seniors
decided they liked the one type
everyone else chose better than
their own, but they exchanged their
cards anyway. Juniors settled on the
prom song, "Special Lady," and the
theme, "On Top of the World ."
Thirty-two junior high girls
flocked to the campus to try out for
the rol e of the "special ladies" in
blu e and gold. As the jv
che e rleading hopefuls were learning
drop v's and splits, the varsity
cheerleaders were selling terrible
towels and glass mugs to finance
their summer camp .
Towels weren't the only terrible
thing on campus as seniors witnessed the initiates give skits at the
Beta Club banquet. Members agreed
the competition was close, but the
"Slim Whitman Singers ," John
Noftsinger, Todd Stafford, Joyce
Plunkett, and Cindy Carty, were the
act most likely to tempt th e throwing
in of the terrible towel.

Feeling Some Future Shock
National Career Week broke into
full swing, giving students a glimpse
of the future. Representatives from
20 firms spoke to classes, answering
their questions about salaries, job
descriptions, and qualifications.
As students drew up plans for the
future, they also made plans for the
up-coming prom. Several seniors
modeled tuxedos for Arlene's formal
wear. Formal wear also claimed the
attention of Sissy Sutliff, elected

Fleming's representative to the
Dogwood Festival.
Dress-up was also the style of the
night for Quill and Scroll members
and DECA members who feasted at
their yearly banquets. DECA students got a glimpse of the working
life as they discussed job-related
subjects. Steve Stinson, graphic artist
for the Roanoke Times, caught the
eye of ten Quill and Scroll initiates
and 20 old members at the Charcoal
Steak House.

Handling the Heat
According to the calendar, it was
still eight weeks until summer, but
the temperature soared into the
nineties. The heat continued to
climb as the fifth six-weeks tests got
underway.
W hile the heat of six-weeks tests
scorched Fleming students, the
c heerleaders prepared junior high
freshmen for heat of a different kind .
Twenty-eight freshman girls practiced four c hee rs on five sweltering
afternoons in hopes of being selected as one of twelve jv cheerleaders.
As the freshmen worked on
ch eerlead ing routine s, Coach Len
Mosser's government classes
warmed up for the fall election by
promoting their candidate with
posters. They elected Jimmy Carter
as the Democratic candidate and
Ronald Reagan as the Republican
candidate.
Then students promoted the Red
Cross dress-up day by sporting the
hottest styles. The heat of the week
broke as Cam per Ha II students
received five extra minutes of break
time for 58% participation.
President Carter felt the heat
when a rescue mission to the
hostages was aborted due to
mechanical failure. Two helicopters
broke down and one crashed into a
cargo plane when they cancelled the
mission. One Roanoke Marine, John
Davis Harvey, died in the crash.

Treks and Treats
It seemed a little like Halloween in
May. All the seniors were treated to
their annual buffet banquet at the
Salem Holiday Inn. Mr. George
"Killer" Miller pulled some disco
tunes out of his bag of tricks for the
people who wanted to dance while
others flashed the night away trying
to record one of their last nights
together as a class. Beta Club members rece ived their goodies in the
form of gold cords for graduation.
The band also had Halloween in
May. Even though the Golden
Colonels weren't dressed like ghosts
and ghouls, they had to don
costumes of a different sort - band
uniforms. The band wasn't treking
through the familiar streets of the
Star City, but off to their treat at the
Daytona Beach Music Festiva l in
Florida .
Even though it felt like Halloween,
Colonels were glad that it was not
October, but May. With only six
weeks left in school, seniors thought
they had graduation in the bag .

Blood, Sweat, and Cheers
As May flowers dotted the
campus, some students made
blooming idiots of themselves and
others deserved bouquets for their
acts. The blooming idiots blossomed
at the Gong Show, sponsored by the
yearbook staff. The Leon Haywood
Dancers, Gordon Middlekauff's
"Wildwood Weed," the Salty Dogs
and even a dog named Snoopy
ended their acts with gongs instead
of scores. One of the few that survived the gong, Jimmy Wright and
Sherry Casey sang "Emotion" to the
tune of a perfect ten score and 10
dollars for first place.
Seniors who had sweated for good
grades attended the Honors Picnic
held in the senior cafeteria . The COE
Club honored their employers at the
Barne Dinner Theatre. Entertainment provided by the students and
then the production of "You're a
Good Man, Charlie Brown" finished
up their banquet.
As some were sweating over last
minute preparations for their banquets, others were sweating as they
faced the needle on Red Cross Blood
Donor Day. The Red Cross ended up
97 pints richer for their sweat.

Back to the Three R's
Rest , relaxation, and recognition
stood as the theme of a week in
which students lounged only long
enough to catch their breath before
being whisked into another activity.
The AP English and biology students
rested the night before their tests
and relaxed after they completed the
final minute of the four-hour exam.
Changing the guards. Senior Larr y Meadows
pr ese nts th e symbo l of his office to junior Lori
Bi xb y at th e SCA Insta ll at ion.
Warm Welcome. Dea n Irvin Ca nn a da y speaks
to Mr . a nd Mrs. Willi a m Majors, Sr. , at the
Senior Rece ption.
For seniors, recognition re ached a
high point at the senior reception.
The PTSA served punch and cake to
the seniors and their relatives while
the Stage Band and choir performed
popular tunes .
The SCA acknowledged the 19801981 slate of officers at their installation ceremony. Then Mr . James
Wood spotlighted the students
behind the scenes on the three
publications, the Sabre, the
Kaleidoscope, and the Colonel.
The yearbook staff then greeted
two special friends of the staff, Mrs.
Jan e Brill, retiring Sabre advisor , and
Mr. Hartwell Philips, retiring dean of
Coulter Hall. Mr. Irvin Cannady
received a standing ovation as the
yearbook distinguish ed him as t he
recipi e nt of the 1980 Colonel dedication .
W hil e Colonels fought off a
rel apse of the Senior Slump w ith R &
R, the Choir and Dra ma Dep artm e nts staged their spring co ncert
and musical review .

Not Blown out of Proportion
Th e juniors blew up balloons for
the Senior Prom. The wrestlers blew
up balloons to soak the teachers. The
Marching Band blew its way through
th e Lions ' Club Parade downtown .
And Mt. Saint Helens just blew its
top off.
Junior class officers put finishing
to u c he s on the Civic Center as
" Powe r Play" unloaded amplifiers
a nd se t up a light s how. "I've never
see n th e prom setting as beautifui,"
sa id one chaperone who has atte nd e d 15 proms .
Stud e nt s hurrying from hair cuts
and picking up rented tuxes took
time out to laugh their way through
the balloon burst, ten teachers sat on
the firing line, grinning widely as students tossed water-filled balloons
their way for 25¢ a piece . "We
thought the teachers would blow up
when they got bombarded," said
Todd Bradly. "But they were good
sports. "
Daring them to do it. Co ac h Milliard Bold e n

Seniors felt the pressure the most .
Th ey watched the track team e nter
the last pep assembl y to their theme
song "W inners ," then climbed the
goalposts and stormed through the
halls for old-times' sake .
Th e tone was more serious for
capping and Baccal a ureate services.
The 480 seniors listen ed to the 1970
valedictorian, Jane Pulli a m Heyl, talk
about grad uating so lon g ago t hat
"they st ill thought that ora nge jui ce

to ye ll " Th a nk Goodness it 's Thursday" as they co mpl eted t he ir sixt h

In these schools, we teach the latest advances in

sophisticated equipment and drugs, people respond to people.
That's why we're looking for people who are
sensitive as well as inquisitive.
We know that students who care for people will do a
better job of caring for patients.
Don't wait to apply. Find out the courses you need to

'... a never-ending race.'
Any serious runner knows that the road to any
finish line is a long traveled road. You start slowly.
Mile after mile. Day after day. You run.
But you know, deep down, thatthe race continues
long afterthe string is broken. There's no quitting. You
run because it's your life.
At Chas. Lunsford Sons & Associates, Inc., we
started building our base more than 100 years ago.
And we've been running ever since. We now have
licenses in 28 states. But we're not quitting. Like the
runner, we know that serving your insurance needs is
a never-ending race.

Fleming: the best school
ever. Band judges said it, exchange students admitted it,
tra ck and wrestling proved it.
And Smith Hall's dean
bragged about it - almost
every day.
Sophomores learned it,

With porns and circumstance, t he varsity
cheerl ea ders salute the class of '80 during last
