H 'lvl Some complaints stopped, but others began. When it came to electing a Homecoming King and Queen, it was hard to please everyone. But, after so many complaints in 1986, the Student Council devised new procedures for the election. Students were complaining primarily that those selected to past Homecoming courts often were not active in school organi- zations. This was unfair to stu- dents active in school, said Paul Tulipana, sr. The new procedures required any senior guy or girl interested in being on the court to submit an application. To be qualified, the student had to participate in at least two school-related activi- ties, have 90 percent attendance record and no suspensions. 'The procedures allowed more people who were involved in school activities to get their ul was so excited,that my contacts teared right out of my eyes, and I lost them on the football field .v ' Campus Life Amy Wi11iams,sr lwccmw a, pn new way to vote name placed on the ballot, said Pam Roberts, sr, uinstead of just putting everyone's name on the ballot. Overall, students thought that the new procedures for the elec- tions were good. The candidates are usually in one clique, so the elections become a popularity contest, said Maryann Byrd, sr, 'but this has been narrowed down some. Some were reluctant about turning in applications. 'I wasn't going to turn in my application, because it embarrassed nie, said Clint Newton, sr, abut my girlfriend turned it in for me. Others thought that the Home- coming elections went fine and smooth. I think the Homecom- ing elections went great, said Ted Triggs, sr. The new proce- dures were a needed change, because of the complaints made to Student Council. --AMY COMPTON

Alternate snow routes were made during Courtwarming week, mainly, the scheduling of the locker decorations. They were switched to Thursday be- cause of the snow day on Wed- nesday. Many students thought this broke-up the fluency of the spirit drive throughout the whole week. 'Having the break in the middle of Courtwarming week really slowed the spirit down, said Monica Dusenberry, sr. 'The locker decorations didn't go over very well because no one was sure what was going on. And it seemed that no one really cared. The dress-up days didn't ex- actly 'move' either. li was dom lwcawe 41 Kai I0 lm ampered spirit 'I don't think anyone got into the dress-up days, said Kirk Bukner, sr. 'Maybe they were too hard. Getting involved in these activi- ties was not too hard, but some students felt that other schools had more organized and fun activities to participate in. 'It seems like other schools make a bigger deal about their activities and that makes them go over better, said Bryce Heavner, jr. 'Overal1, this Courtwarming seemed like it was done because it had to be done, said Kirk. 'And not because the students really got into it to have fun. -Amy Williams 4 4 xr, 4 . 1
