Adams Signs
Scholarship
Deidra Adams, a Chat
tooga High seniors, signed a
four-year scholarship with
Berry College last Tuesday at
her home in Summerville.
“1 was thankful to have
gotten a scholarship from
Berry. At first I never even
considered Berry. 1 guess
because it was so close to
home. But as it turned out
after I got to visit the campus,
and meet the students and
faculty, Berry became one of
m{l top choices. It's adgreat
school academically and the
athletic part about it speaks
to itself. They have a super
ball club, and I'm more than
honored to be entering Berry
College.”
Deidra, a 5'3" guard,
averaged 16.6 points per
game, in leading the Chat
tooga Squaws to an 18-7
record this past season.

courses at CHS. The follow-up
showed that 74 percent of the
students were employed or
continuing their education in
March of 1983.
Of the 94 students that
completed vocational pro
grams in May of 1982, 27 were
employed in the field they
were trained in, 19 were
employed in related fields, 15
were continuing their educa
tion in either an Area
Technical School or College,
four were in the military, three
were unable to work for per
sonal reasons, and the status
was unknown for four.
Statistics have shown that
Vocational students make bet
ter employees, feel better
prepares f’or the world of
work, and change jobs less fre
quently.
Even though 18 percent of
those students available for
work were unemployed, this is
well below the area unemploy
ment percentage for this age
group. In the early 19705, 90
to 92 percent of tl‘ie students
were employed at the time of
the follow-up. This shows the
high competition for jobs in
the market today and the need
for students to develop good
work habits and achieve high
standards in school.

Cheerleaders Keep Busy

The 1983 Chattooga High

recently been chosen. For this
reason I have decided to let

When seasons change, so
do the cheerleaders activities.
In the spring, cheerleaders sell
candy and other fund-raising
items in order to make
operating money for the up

summer, the cheerleaders

for the new school year. They
also attend a week-long

TV Review
By TAMMY REESE
A hilarious new comedy
series on NBC's lineup is
Mama's Family. The show
airs Saturday night at 9
o'clock.
The show, which is a carry
over of a spoof from the old
Carol Burnett series, centers
around Mama who is played
excellently by Vicki
Lawrence.
Mama, who lives with her
sister Fran, (played by Rue
McClanahan), her son Vint,
(played by Ken Berry), and his
two teen-age children, is fre
quently visited bf' her snob
bish d);ughter Ellen who is
played by Betty White.
Un one episode Mama's
daughter Eunice and son-in
law Ed, glayed by Carol
Burnett and Harvey Korman,
come to town to attend Vint's
wedding. Eunice and Ed are
down to earth people who
think they are just as good as
anyone else, including Ellen.
Burnett and Korman were
regularly on the old spoofs
and have only appeared on the
new series one time. .
The show, which is about
the everyday perils of the
large, orclinary family, would
be nothing without the brash
character of Mama. She is con
stantly grouchy, says what
she thinks, wears orthopedic
shoes; drinks beer, swears,
and generally complains
about everything. She does
these things in such a way,
though, that any audience
coul(fn't help but double up in
laughter.
This new series should be a
success because viewers can
relate to the plain talk and
everyday living better than
they can to glamour and
wealth which are usually the
elements of a new series. I en
joyed the old spoofs and now 1
enjoy this new series which is
as funny as ever.

bably most exciting season for

the busiest, because football

this season cheerleaders are
planning and preparing for
pep rallies, practicing stunts

making signs for the halls and

total of 150 hours work for the
year.
Mark received an applica
tion for an Undergraguate
Student Assistant in
February. When asked why he
applied for the position, Mark
replied, “‘I need all the money
I can get.”” UGA School of
Journalism only selects three
students to participate in the
program. Mark’s reaction to
receiving the honor was
“Wow! T%iis is nice.”

Last year, some of the
CETA funds were cut. This

students that can be accepted
for the program. Mr. Hair

to a;‘),ply as soon as possible in
