The annual Green- e Festival Parade was e again passing through its way to the Community lter. tudents in marching band the Pom Pon squad were I of the parade. I was kind of nervous to ch at first, said Kris Lar- , freshman flute player, t, after awhile I didn't no- I it anymore. When we E practicing before the de the Webster marching d came up to practice, As soon as we saw them lbroke into Varsity Valor! ther students in the pa- e included the candidates Junior Miss and some n the American Field Ser- l love the feeling I get when l see the art displays, and people enjoying themselves. -Molly Byrne vice exchange program. The Jr. Miss candidates consisted of Melanie Moore, Jamie Scott, Sherry Tuttle, Lisa Bergmanis and Kim Per- cival, seniors. The judges later chose Percival the win- ner. l didn't think I had a shot at it, said Percival. On the very first step I took in the pageant, I tripped when my heel caught on my sIip! The parade was only the beginning of the arts and crafts section of the festival held Sept. 15-16. Along with food and vari- ous displays of craftwork, or- ganizations such as Tri-Hi-Y's if - Q il' V .ff 'J and Job's Daughters had bake sales and snow cone machines. The atmosphere was very exciting, said Lyle Ganim, president of the Tri-Hi-Y-like organization, Jaclawdame. We all had fun in the sun and enjoyed making friends. Wendy Barr and Angee Bam- man became very good at kill- ing the bees that lit on our sweets with tupperware con- tainer lids and wicker paper plate hoIders! The dust was our biggest problem, said Ganim. Other Kirkwood booths in- cluded the Pioneer Boosters and Project Concern's Walk for Mankind concession stands, the Hockey Club's game booth, and a Senior Explorer Post's dunking booth. Meanwhile, passersby could enjoy meandering from one end of the crowded park to the other, taking in all the colorful displays, paintings, jewelry and hand-made items. Barbecued food, snow cones, cotton candy and baked goods allowed people to indulge. Entertainment came in all forms, including a free ex- pression dance, the annual dog and antique auto shows, and KADI radio's representa- tives who came on the last day, Sunday, Sept. 16, with dance contests and album giveaways. On that evening, when the last booth closed down, ciga- rette butts, crumpled paper bags, empty pop corn con- tainers and bits of food occu- pied the once busy pathways.

Princi- pal Franklin McCallie re- quested the video-taping ma- chine for two reasons. l wanted to know each of the 2,000 students and be able to put every name with a face, said McCallie.
