Quiei . iAf KNTHOOD tkoJaH It was the week before Christmas vacation and the student body was audience to the music department ' s annual Christmas program. Although they performed quite well, the low roar from the crowd prevented most of the entertainment from reaching you unless you could read the choir ' s lips or detect violin fingerings. By contrast, an average pep session before a basketball or football game would find the cheerleaders in the performance ring while muted fans kept their school spirit to themselves. Such rude audience conduct during assemblies and non-participation at pep sessions drew sharp criticism and threatened to end future programs. T But before you shake your head and tsk tsk tsk, there are X two sides to every coin. Several assemblies demanded a rather long attention span as in the case of an old man who specialized in basketball trick shots. Despite the fact he held a dear place in the hearts of many, the student body grew obviously restless after 15 minutes of one-hand- behind-the-back shots and drop kicks averaging one basket per 16 tries. Pep sessions were quiet for several reasons. Complicated cheers often left the crowd speechless and team losing streaks also lowered spirits. The biggest difficulty pep sessions had to overcome was the feeling that yelling out cheers was definitely considered not cool. However, despite a few rotten apples, the whole barrel was not a waste of time. Several assemblies and pep sessions went over favorably and provided that welcome change of pace. General Motors gave an interesting scientific demonstration with gyroscopes and explosions. Free Fair, a four-piece rock band, even received an encore from people who were getting into the music and performed in concert later that weel . Outstanding pep sessions featured kisses from moms of varsity basketball players, a human pyramid, and Priscilla, an eight-legged, sheet-covered creature that took a leak on a Wayne High School General. But nothing topped the main attraction, the student body yelling Gimme a red, red, red ... Pep band member senior Geoff Sills does a little boasting. Although it didn ' t exactly cheer the team on towards victory, it got a lot of laughs! Above: Guitarist for the Free Fair en- tertains students. Assemblies 29
