l V l l K, I l 4 - I ia I l with o Cheers, whistles and screams came from the crowd as Tom Littlepage, sophomore, and seven other pom pon boys performed a halftime routine to Macho Man, in the Powder Puff foot- ball game, Nov. 23. I felt pretty foolish with balloons as my new figure, commented Littlepage. The game matched the senior girls and the undergraduate girls and ended in a 14-14 tie. Only members of GPC were eligible to play. The senior coach- ing staff consisted of Richard Gegg, Brad Harris, David Smith, and Rob Heggie, members of Boy's Pep Club. lt was fun teaching the girls how to play football. They listened well and picked up the game fast, said Heggie. Coaches for the undergrad team were Ed Travis, John Breslo, David Lovell, Alvin Miller, John Clouse and Robert Gegg, Everybody thought that it was a good way to make some extra money, said Lyle Ganim, vice-president. GPC made a total of S15 from the game. In the fourth quarter, Janet Chipper- field, senior, broke around right end to tie the score, 14-14. The undergrads had taken the lead in the third quarter on a touchdown by Sheri Fantroy, ju- nior. Rules of the game allotted seven colin bollooni h new fi ure points for each touchdown. The undergrads were the first team to get on the scoreboard with a left side run from Wanda Pelloquin, sophomore. I felt great scoring that touchdown! lt was fun being picked up and being carried off the field, commented Pelloquin. The seniors came back to score on a 60- yard run from Jewel Caruthers. Boys' Pep Club provided cheer- leaders for both teams. Conrad Terrell, Earl Dowell, Brian Perkins, Andy Fries and Eric Landgraf, seniors, along with Todd Myerscough and John Jeffries, ju- niors, all donned red and white skirts for the game. 0Dnnuuwq....,,,.,.,,,, Everyone was hyper and having fun at first, but later we got real competitive. It was hard to move the ball anywhere because it was slippery. The mud was a pain, you'd fall and it would go up your nose. - Karen Nabe N441-um I I 'Juris 1 ' IEW-if : 3 2 Enthusiasm from members of the underclassmen team, Lisa Buckner, junior, Allison Pence, sophomore, Kate Wissman and Lynne Stecina, juniors, reigns on the sidelines after the first touchdown that put the under- grads on top. , fl!5'. .

Snow adds to the excitement of the night pep assem- bly for Amy Witcher, freshman. She runs toward the bonfire that Boys' Pep Club members constructed earli- er in the day. The snow accumulated to seven inches causing the postponement of the game for two days, GCOFH ting by the of mo n light the o tcontinued from page 211 Brubaker, senior, dragged himself out from beneath his blankets, Nov. 26. Squinting to see the time, he noticed that it was 3:45 a.m. and he knew that in 15 minutes he would have to be at school. When he arrived there, he met with other pep club members. Together, the group, with ladders in their arms and signs in their hands, and the moon still shining down from the sky, set out for the mission they intended to accomplish - putting up the outdoor decorations for Red and White Day festivities. It was fun but it was cold, said Cathy Diaz, GPC outdoors committee chairman, We had a lot of people help- ing. In the cafeteria, other GPC members made breakfast for football players. I got up to school at five in the morn- ing to make breakfast, said Susie Lov- ell, senior. We ran out of eggs so we had to go buy more. While the team ate, the group that had arrived at 4 a.m. added the finishing touches to its project. Soon, the sun began to peek over the horizon, and the empty corridors became full of chatter, laughter, and camera-carrying seniors capturing their last Red and White Day memories as KHS students. After a full day of classes, with too much excitement to concentrate, teachers dismissed students at 1:50 p.m. to attend the annual afternoon pep as- sembly. At the assembly, members of the GPC skit committee presented the first por- tion of their play, The Spirit of Kirk- wood and the Seven Pioneers,', an inter- 24 Turkey Day Activities pretation of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. The committee finished its presenta- tion of the skit at the evening pep assem- bly with the seven Pioneers capturing the wicked witch of Webster. Robyn Booker, GPC president, also announced the winners of the hall con- tests. Seniors took first place, Student Council placed second, and the cheer- leaders and the sophomore class tied for third. Other contest winners were Missy Lanz, senior, for the baby picture con- test, and Carmen Foster, senior, for the red hot contest. Todd Thomas, sopho- more, took first in the pie-eating contest. At the conclusion of the 7 p.m. hap- pening, those in attendance proceeded out to the bonfire. Members of Boys' Pep Club had spent the day piling up the wood for the fire. According to Principal Franklin McCallie, many felt that the bonfire was the best ever. Dave Smith, myself and the other players gave the coach a standing ovation because he made us feel like winners. - Richard Gegg Crepe paper that Ann Moore looks for a place to hang in the senior hall, and paper flames that Liz Far- row draws on brown paper, add to the creation of the theme Pioneers Fight Like the Devil. Several seniors worked to alter the appearance of the library hall.
