Here are several photographs taken by T. Emmett Nunn during the 1968-69 school year for Chattooga High School's Sequoyah
yearbook. These images were scanned from the original negatives and may
appear uncropped compared to those in the yearbook, and several were
never used.
The
captains of the Chattooga High School football team are shown holding
the trophy for winning the Region 7-AA Championship. They are, from
left to right, Jim Day, Heath Livingston, Lee Lenderman, and Stacy Ray.
Stacy Ray accepts a football trophy for Most Valuable Defensive Player of 1968 from an unidentified girl.
Tommy Payne was awarded the football trophy for Most Improved Player of 1968.
Head football coach Jack Shamblin (left) accepts an award from two unidentified men.
Members
of the coaching staff and Linebacker's Club check out the latest in
game recording devices, a reel-to-reel videotape recorder (on cart)
attached to a camera. Included in this photograph are, from left to
right, Coach Willie Joe McGraw, Principal Bill Kinzy, unidentified,
unidentified, unidentified, unidentified, Harry McGinnis, Marlin Payne,
Jimmy Woodard (mostly hidden), Robert Floyd, unidentified, Coach Jack
Shamblin (mostly hidden by camera), unidentified, and unidentified.
From
left to right: Tim Livingston, Robert Floyd, Nancy Lenderman, Paula
Easter, and Marlin Payne are shown in a photograph taken in the
school's front lobby. Floyd and Payne are presenting the students with
new jackets embroidered with "Region 7-AA Champions."
Gary Duke (left) and Cleo Goodgame were co-captains of the basketball team.
This
photograph is similar to one that appears in the yearbook. From left to
right (front row) are Jack Cash, Gary Duke, unidentified, Cleo
Goodgame, and Greg Ludy; (back row) Danny Hudson, Lee Lenderman, Mike
Turner, and Ladell Norton.
Kathy Foster (left) and Mary King were co-captains of the girl's basketball team.
The
team included, from left to right, Jackie Cook, Becky Wilson,
unidentified, unidentified, Peggy Reynolds, Mary King, Nancy Hale,
unidentified, Kathy Foster, unidentified, unidentified, unidentified,
and unidentified. If you can identify the unknowns, please contact me and I'll update.
Both of the girl's basketball team photographs were not used in the yearbook. (Somebody blinked!)
Mr. Paul Hosmer (left) is sitting with this group so I'm guessing these are the Future Farmers of America.
The
remaining photographs show the 1969 Senior Superlatives, first with an
unused "outtake" followed by the uncropped version of the
photograph used in the yearbook.
