• JB Ml Homecoming posed a lot of problems that needed to be solved on the spur of the moment. What looked good on the drawing board did not always do so wel the next day. Some Freshmen reactions to their first homecoming were: We pulled the Juniors right through the mud right away! We had more balloons left than the Seniors! Who is adding up the points? Whoever it is is really screwing it up. Everything was cool but the pyramid. Yeah. We get four people down and they ' re already saying that the Seniors won. Our car keeps falling apart! Too bad it had to rain when we didn ' t have a garage font. Be better if they had more reasonable dress-up days. Bible day! Nobody wanted to ride the public bus to school looking like that! I like homecoming because all the alumni come back. The Seniors have the most spirit, probably because they won all those years. The Freshmen, well, we never had any pep rallies or games before or anything like that. That ' s why we aren ' t winning. Our go-cart! We push it out and all the wheels start falling off! I ' m so sick of this car bit! 176 Freshmen Chester Clark Gayle Clark Vannessa Aaron Bruce Elliot Allen Carolyn Alle Ron Coleman Chnsti Collins Clifford Bidgood Homer Boyd Martha Brad] Daniel Cusator Jefflyn Dangerfield Donald Clements Jerald Cole Steven Cown Brenda Covington Roland Crim Mark Crump Lome Dangerfield Ingnd Danner Ricky Daveni We had more balloons leh than the seniors

y Willi:. do a double-take Seeing a freshman hurrying to class only gives you a glimpse of his frantic high school life. Well, do a double take. Just for a moment, stand in the shoes of a freshman once again. On the first day of school, you ' re the most scared, lonely kid in the whole world. Within a week, you ' ve separated a few friends from the indistinguishable mass of student body. Security results from the realization that you ' re not alone any more. Suddenly you ' re faced with Choosing Freshman Class Officers. You don ' t know all the kids that are running. You don ' t even know what officers are for. Anyway, you vote for some officers. On the following pages are highlights of other problems encountered by students in their first year of high school. We have gone to the freshmen themselves to find out why they are the way they are 1. Freshman Class Officers, clockwise: President Zach Parker; Treasurer Roland Crim; Vice-president Carolyn Allen; Secretary Bonnie Briggs; and Social Chairman Lisa Young. 2. Class Representatives to Student Council: Martha Bradfute and Judy Benham. 3. Class sponsors Miss Muriel Bopp and Mr. Edgar Firnhaber with Social Chairman, Cheri Meyer. [ reshman 1 75

Aching muscles tighten for the last long haul, which drags their rivals into the mud. 3. Renouncing green pasture s and still waters, this shepherd resorts to pop-top cans for refreshment. 4. Primitive war rituals? An Indian rain dance? Ants in their pants? Guess It ' s the Balloon Bust of course! Mr. Randy Lowe ' s friendly smile and relaxed manner have eased the tension in all his English classes. Besides being a Sophomore class sponsor, he is a JV football and basketball coach and the Trailblazer advisor. God ' s greatest gift to man, he feels, is the new creation Christ has accom- plished. He finds it easiest to be cre- ative when outside pressures aren ' t troubling him. Then he can concentrate only on what he has a strong interest in. One has to be aware of himself be- fore he can truly be aware of his neigh- bor— Mr. Lowe says. He tries to create in his students a feeling of awareness of their fellowman. A keen, concern ed awareness. Good student leadership has made Trailblazer a unique student newspaper. An advisor is solely to advise — and that ' s what I ' m doing! Of the staff he says, They are the first group of stu- dents that are totally preparing the paper without assistance.
