Acts of God and man mar Spirit Week ii., 01' 'Q qi , 75 ug. The new double lunch schedule, sophomores' proficiency testing, the stench from the chemical waste pit and the Santana wind conditions all but ruined Spirit Week. Lack of publicity was blamed for the lack of participation. I didn't even know we had spirit week, said junior Russ Snider. Senior Class President Paul Martin said, I thought the turnout was good considering that schedule for the proficiency testing. He and the Senior Class Council planned a Cotton Ball Race, Tourists Day, Hat and Glasses Day, Button Day and a Pie-in-the-face Auction. Activities Director Frank Manzo said, I think that it was an unfortunate situation because of the testing, there would have been no way we could have worked around it. Vicki Yarber, a junior, said, I thought it was fun if we had only a whole week, and not half days. i.
