' mf Whether it was mistaken for a blue light special or not, the traditional How Night tick- ets were sold for a mere dollar. For that costly price, students received a fun-filled evening. The customary obstacle courses, Mello Yello chugs, volleyball games, and dancing were combined with several new class competitions such as the jello slurp and the football dress. Part of the night's success was due to the preceding school day. How Day, September 10, encouraged the spirit of the student body as it was the first assembly of the year. Ed Grim- ley visited the stadium for his high school reunion. The fall sports and their coaches were recognized, and several squads performed for the entertainment of the students. When the night finally arrived, a total of 1,187 students gathered, helping to fulfill the purpose of getting together, old and new, for a look into the upcoming school year. I think How Night served its purpose well. Not only were spirits built, but it gave everyone a chance to get together and have a good time, senior Terry Nunn said.

School was a common place to become embarrassed. 'lWhen I was a freshman, I tried frantically to push open the student center door until a senior guy told me that I was pushing the wrong side, sophomore Kim Meador said. Even the dance caused some embarrassment. Freshman Lisa Wood was sitting with the royalty at the game. She got up for a moment, but when she sat back down, her chair fell over backwards. But most often the attendants were embarrassed in front of strangers. junior Julie Black got her sweater caught on an stranger's belt. It took IO minutes to get the two untangled. My friend and I made total fools of ourselves when we THOUGHT that we'd won a Trans Am and started jumping all over Hardee's screaming, 'We won! We won! ' queen candidate Alison Har- vill said. Although these weren't mo- ments that the girls would want to relive, they're worth remembering. After being presented at halftime, attendants Lisa Wood, Keri McKinney, and julie Black escorted by Thad Stump, David Deal, and Lew Stephenson watched the Chiefs defeat Rolla. Flashing a smile to the crowd, queen candidate Paige Croy rides to the field where Mike Gibson, her field escort, awaits. ., -y 14 HOMECOMING ROYALTY V A W .4 4- 6 , ff- , po, The newly crowned Chief Ceremoni- al Queen, Julie Estes, sits with a smile as she and her brother, Todd Estes, watch the second half of the game. ..4v ef' 0 H 5 I s-N .BJ .Q
