’age Sponsored by Rick, Rose, Matt, and Lindsay Copp Fall Homecoming 11 Homecoming spirit not dampened The rain did not succeed in washing out this year’s fall homecoming ac- tivities. Even though the football team lost to the Marysville Monarchs, the rain only dampened the crowd’s clothes, not their enthusiasm. The juniors managed to keep high spirits as their float was named the winner for the third year. The con- vertibles carrying the five homecoming prin- cesses followed the floats. But tradition took leave when unfavorable condi- tions kept the convertible tops up. As each princess arrived in the stadium, she and her escort crossed the muddy field.

Students Express Themselves One of the best ways students found to get their point across was to use key body motions. Sometimes people didn’t even know that they were using body language and sending subliminal messages to their peers. Sometimes these messages proved beneficial, and sometimes they didn’t. It seemed like everyday some student got into an argument with a teacher and re- sorted to body lan- guage to get the point across. If a student were pleading with a teacher for that final grade, he would slouch and pout to let the teacher know, without words, his real feel- ings. Quivering lips while waiting for an answer showed the teacher that he needed the grade or his life would be over. Of course, the student usually had those “puppy dog” eyes to try and trick the teacher into feeling sorry for the student and giving up the grade. Some of the best body language could be found around exam time. Faces all around the school tensed as the week of exams neared. Students showed up for school in their most comfortable clothes, pre- pared for the worst. As they found a comfortable position in the chair, ex- ams began. Hand on fore- head and eyes tightened, students plowed through exams as best they could. But in the end, the smil- ing faces or sorrowful glances told more than any words ever could.
