ANSWERS:
1008011711 - Lady in red is Lara Jane McDonald, Bobbie Sue Chapel, Jenny Sue (Jenkins) Lear and her husband Billy Lear, Joan (Hinson) Comer obscured in photo and her husband Marcus Comer.
1007011711 - Paul and Pam (Nettles) Dillman and Yours Truly and wife Sandra.
Bob McDonald pretty much figured these photos out and as always did an outstanding job of putting them all in context with our high school days. Don't know why but looks like the participation is playing out. Will keep my fingers crossed hoping for more input.

1006011611 - From the 1967 Rocket Annual - Jim Biggerstaff, Doris Baxley, Ray Shaw and Jim Miller.
1005011611 - 1950s- Buck Covington at old Rockingham Speedway. He Owned
and operated Covington's Body Shop, Highland Pines until retirement and his son Gene took over business. Probably most noted now with the younger set as Bucky Covington's grandfather.
No guesses on the Buck Covington photo. But Cathy was right with the other photo, except for the woman identified. Ray Shaw also taught at RTI when I was going there. I remember he loved his smokes. I believe he usually carried a pack of regular cigs in one shirt pocket and a pack of menthols in the other.

1004011511 - An ad that appeared in the 200th Historical Book in 1984 showing
Whitley's Discount Auto Sales located on Highway 74 with Williams Whitley & his son in the photo.
1003011511 - An ad that appeared in the 200th Historical Book in 1984 showing Crackers, owned by Booty & Trudy Pate, the nightclub that was located on Airport Road.
I guess no one could identify Crackers nightclub. I visited that nightclub quite a few times in my younger years. And Whitleys was a well known car dealer during that time. Appreciate the replies.

There were some good answers, some right, some wrong and some close. Thanks for participating.
