S 83 For the first time in the ten year history of Kickapoo there was a Punk-In dance to celebrate Halloween. 4'Even though it was called a Punk-In dance, there was also Rock-n- Roll, Country, and Western played. Instead of a live band, Rock-n-Disco pro- vided the music, com- mented Suzanne F oushee, a senior member of cabinet. Cabinet organized the dance with the help and supervision of Mrs. Sandra Gray, the new sponsor for cabinet. Screams of delight crescendoed to a deafening roar, as music by everyone's favorite recorders was cranked out of the sound system. In- cluding top hits such as 4'Whip It by Devo, L Looking For Love by Johnny Lee, g6You Better Run by Pat Benitor, 'aRock Lobster , by B-52 and every other song that Dark sun glasses, skinny ties, and strange-looking pants are part of punk- ing out, according to David Gritz. I think Scott fKingj and I had a great time at the dance. It was a really good idea, stated Sandra Wayt. 20 f Punk In Dance SRG? got everyone toe-tapping or pogoing, whatever the style happened to be. Wllhe music was exciting, and it was all very well organized. Everyone was in really outrageous clothes and makeup. I think everyone had a great time while they danced, sat around and talked, or just drank pop, commented Becky Stegall, a senior member of the Bonnies. The Bonnies dressed up as killer bees, little girls, clowns, and punkers. They were led by Shari Newby, dressed up as the Wicked Witch of the West, with a broom in place of her baton. During the Central vs. Kickapoo game on Hallo- ween night, the Corps made spiral formations during half time on the field before spelling out MHappy Halloween, Chiefs on paper plates, in a last deep bow.

22 X Turkeys ??2i5?S ii? 555552 2222? When was copper wortl more than silver? On Turkey Day, of course, wher, everything that happened was unusual anyway. November 23-24 students voted on the biggest turkey they know. They were the only days in their lives that pennies were worth more than dimes. Each year voting was done by placing money in the favorite candidates' buckets. The procedure for voting worked a little differently. Kids still placed money in containers, but a copper for pennyj was the only coin that would count as a positive vote. All other money, such as silver coins fdimes, quarters, etc and dollar bills, counted as negative votes. That meant votes would be subtracted from whomever'f bucket they were in. In effect, students would have to put more money in the bucket of the person they wanted to lose. Dee Ann Renfrow, assemblies' commissioner. reflected, If everyone understands the new voting system, everything will work all right. Michelle Johnson. elections supervisor, stated You raise money, but thc, funny thing about the new system is that most guys will have negative votes. I think this new way to vote is great because it is unusual just like the turkeys are.', November 26, the top two turkeys from each class strutted their stuff during the basketball assembly. Each turkey had a theme song ance? his own innovative, custom- designed costume. Paul Teele, the winner while seated on his throne. was crowned grand turkey' of them all and presided over his court. 7 Grand Turkey winner Paul Teele is con- gratulated by Shane Kammerdeiner and Robbie Daniels. an gf A , ,gy
