Council members spent three hours Friday evening, decorat- ing the two areas. They returned the following morning, and with the help of Beta Club and par- ents, added final touches. When couples entered the dance, red, white and pink deco- rations greeted them. Cupid and heart mobiles dotted the ceiling and centerpieces repeated the colors with red velvet ribbon and white and pink carnations sur- rounding a hurricane lamp shade with a red lighted candle. Instead of the usual cafeteria tables, white tablecloths covered rented, round ones. I think the round tables made the dance a lot more elegant, stated junior Susan Starr. Speaking of the councills decorating efforts, Mrs. Bailey commented, Due to all of the hard work, the cafeteria and stage were transformed into splendid memories. I was very pleased with the total effect. Food Service students had prepared the refreshments of cookies and punch upon which couples munched between dance numbers. A professional disc jockey, Mr. Sam Odyssey, spun the records, offering the dancers music from rock to country. Summarizing student reaction to the event, sophomore Amy Lay said, I thought Pop Ball :ff 'V ., . A 'sf ' w I .i, -sm, . 4754 ,f W AW i Z was really terrific. The waiting was over, the ner- vousness had subsided. All the weeks of combing stores for the most unusual and latest look in tuxedo wear and evening dress- es had been worth it. Corsages and boutonnieres eventually withered, but Pop Ball left pleasant memories. Popularity Ball winners from all four classes in the 25 categories are pictured in the People Section which begins on page 136. DANCING to a faster-paced song, ju- nior Kristy Kiser and date, Berkner High School graduate, Bud Mulrey, appear to be enjoying themselves.

Twirp 2 Student Life Week tThe Woman ls the Re- sponsible Partyl provided stu- dents with a unique opportunity! to understand what the other sex goes through. For women, it meant the re- sponsibility of asking guys out for a date and playing football in the junior-senior Powder Puff game. For the men who volun- teered as Debs and cheer- leaders, it meant makeup and skirts and learning cheers. As with other special events, organizations turned out to mix business with pleasure. The sophomore class empha- sized the role change with their legs contest which featured male coaching staff's limbs. Students cast their vote by placing coins in the can bearing their choice's name. When the change was finally counted, Mr. Kent Turner, baseball coach, was declared the winner. A second contest, conducted by Key Club, asked students to select the Twirp King. From the nominees, senior Kevin Burnett garnered the most votes by the end of the week. As with the Homecoming Queen, Burnett was presented to the crowd during halftime at the Powder Puff game. His ride around the track, though, was not in a fancy vehicle, but in a beatup pickup truck driven by junior Darrel Phipps. The newly formed French Club also got involved. They sold pastries in order to raise money for T-shirts. Pyramids, cheers and chore- ography challenged the male Debs and cheerleaders, while ju- nior and senior girls on the two football squads prepared to meet in Friday night's battle. Some of the male cheer- leaders found it a real challenge and had wounds to prove it. 'AOne day at practice, Traci Libolt was showing Bobby Starr, Tim Smith and me how to build a pyramid, said Larry Cannon of the junior squad. When we tried it, Tim kicked me in the nose. A few cheers later, Bobby turned around and accidently hit me. Then Ronnie Darr tried to do a jump and kicked me inthe side. I learned more about self-defense than anything else during that week. Friday morning brought stu- dents to school dressed for roles they were to play that night. The female football players arrived in jerseys while fellows who were cheerleaders and Debs dressed in skirts. Aside from the smirks and cat- calls of their friends, the guys lcontinued on page 25l
