Cougars cook out One of the major events of Spirit Week was the Homecoming barbeque, which extended lunch to an hour and a half on Thursday, Nov. 6, Homecoming Day. The barbeque was put on by the cafeteria staff and by the ASB; the luncheon, which included a hambur- ger, beans, milk and a juice bar, cost one dollar. It was excellent, Desmond Rebello said. I thought it was going to be sorry, Marc Christen- sen admitted, but the hamburgers were not too bad. Of course, not everyone was happy. I didn ' t think (Mr. Jon) Gaffney could cook, Scott Finch said, and I was right. The day included a victory in Canyon Springs ' first Homecoming game, played at Moreno Valley High School; the Cougars crushed Palm Desert by a 41-7 score. Smoke and sm Led by Daylind Ridgeway ' s 209 yards passing and by the running attack of Rudy McGriff and Steve Mayo, the Cougars pulled away and never looked back, playing substitutes for most of the second half.

1% ' School spirit soars Friday, Oct. 31, Halloween, began the first Canyon Springs Spirit Week. It was just the first of six special dress days. Halloween was followed by Toga Day, held Monday, Nov. 3, then, on successive days, by ' 50s Day, Hawaiian Day, Color Day and Western Day. We ' ve Only Just Begun was the theme, and, though Canyon Springs itself had begun less than two months before, and though there was certainly no one to come home, the school began to build toward the excitement of its first Homecoming with enthusiasm. Many students and staff members wore costumes Hal- loween Day, and at noon the best-costumed were cho- sen; Charles Clardy, as a woman, took the prize as best- costumed student, while Mr. Jack Cassette, as a heavy metal rocker, took the honors among the faculty. Although there were no formal contests on the :razy costumes remaining special dress days, student participation stayed high. Spirit Week was a total blast, Gina Oates said. People were dressed really funny those days. The week had other special activities. At a double assembly Tuesday, Nov. 4, members of the first Home- coming Court were introduced. Between the two assem- blies students attended a massive balloon launch, which was part of the district-wide Say No to Drugs cam- paign. As Thursday, Nov. 6, approached, students put the finishing touches on their class floats, then began to look forward to the special events of that day and to the first Homecoming Dance, that Friday night.
