Redskins make it happen During the pre game cermonies on Friday night, the first Marshall Redskin Alumni Reception was held for all former MHS students, football players, cheerleaders, and band members in the high school gymnasium. Queen Karen Wilbur, escort Sam Landers and her court containing senior attendant and escort, Christy Klein and John Wuori, Junior attendant and escort, Lora Jason and Steve Rivard, sophomore attendant and escort, Peggy McDonagh and Jeff Weatherly, and freshman attendant and escort, Pam Baker and Dave Flynn remained together in the stands throughout the game. Out to the playing field, totem pole sections, one from each of the classes, were placed together to unite the student body into a spirited and proud whole that supported their unbeaten football team. The Mighty Redskins remained unbeaten as they walked over the Coldwater Cardinals 22-14, with help from their Electric Fence.” During the game, the seniors were announced as the winning class for the Homecoming Week celebration with 139 points, the juniors grabbed second with 112 points, the sophomores found themselves third with 102 points and the freshmen rested at fourth with 70 points. Students celebrated the victory as they danced to the sounds of Gabriel after the game, while couples enjoyed the music from Cyprus during the Semi-formal dance on the following Saturday.

Friday night fever Disco was the sound the country raved about this year and it was Disco that made the scene at Marshall High's informal dances. Students caught the “Night Fever” as they packed the dance floor after a stimulating Redskin game or maybe just a night on the town. The music of Rush, Frampton, Queen and hundreds of other eminent artists were reproduced and brought to life by bands like Strom, Cyprus Axis and the Show Biz Kids for the entertainment of the student body. These dances were sponsored by numerous clubs and organizations that were out to please the people (and sometimes make a profit). Not only were the sounds exciting Disco or good old rock and roll, but the '50's were also brought out in the Senior sponsored 50’s dance. It was a great night full of peg legs, cigs, grease and pleats, and it was a change of pace, from the bump to the bunny hop. All the dances proved that we were Staying Alive” and making it happen with celebration. 22 Informal Donees
