We Know How To Show Our Spirit Baker Students know how to show their spirit. With everything from cowboy hats to poodle-skirts, Spirit Week was a memo- rable part of Homecoming. Monday, Baker Day, students proudly displayed Bakers ' colorful ribbons and pins. Many students were double trou- ble and twice as nice, on Tuesday ' s Twin Day. Wednesday was M.A.S.H. Day and the halls were overrun with Hotlips Houlihans and Klingers. Thursday, Cowboy and Indians Day, many folks were dressed as if they were coming from a day on the range. Friday was considered a well known tradition to students; it was 50 ' s Day. Everyone went back to the time of the Beatles, Happy Days, and Elvis. This Spirit Week helped to lead up to a well played Homecoming game and a good tur- nout for the Homecoming Dance. The winners of the Mr. and Mrs. Spirit Contest were announced during the Ba- ker-McGill Homecoming pep-rally, Friday. Arnold Tillman and Bruce Sledge tied for Mr. Spirit. Barry Bryant was the runner- up. The Miss Spirit award was given to Lisa Patterson. The runners-up were Mary Jane Rice, Sandy Lawson, Vonceile Carter, Kathleen McCune, and Trisha Sisson. The Most Spirited Teacher award was given to Mrs. Crawford. She commented, This has been the best Spirit Week ever! Fifties Day, a Baker tradition, is enjoyed by stu- dents. Students come prepared before entering the Mess Half Mrs. Crawford, most spirited teacher, shows her coolness on Fifties Day. Senior Cheerleader, Teresa Bondora. proudly wears her Baker Spirit.

Dances: A Chance to Get Together A favorite extra-curricular activity is the dances which follow the many Baker football and basketball games. A good idea for having dances is not only having a great time, but also to raise money for clubs and organizations. Our most traditional dance is the Back To School Dance, sponsored by the Jour- nalism staff, with W.B.L.X. There was a great turnout which helped new and old friends get together. A new experience was the TOGA DANCE. TOGA was heard throughout the cafeteria. Students were decked out in sheets in the toga spirit. School dances used to be a thing of the past, but Baker students see them as a good time. Seniors, Suzanne Simmons. Trisha Lumpkin. Lisa LaFe. and Sandy Lawson. discuss their new schedule at the Back To School Dance. Arnold Tillman dances with his date at the Toga Dance. LaDarrell Thames demonstrates the new wave at Baker.
