y -vs - During the winter months, a decrease in rallies dampened school enthusiasm, causing a general feeling of disappointment among students. A total of three rallies kept students barely involved in school spirit. However, when a rally was presented, anxious students crowded the Student Center or the South Auditorium to view the event. Keeping on top by informing students ofthe Marysville vs. Lindhurst wrestling match in early February, the wrestling team sponsored an action-packed rally with inter-class matches refereed by Coach Bruce Cameron. Classes cheered for their representatives as wrestlers practiced for the important match that night. Following the wrestling matches, several Marysville High students Zreturned to yesteryear for the fairytale land qperformance of Snow White and the Seven. Juniors presented their rally before a full auditorium of eager students on February IO in the South Auditorium. A cameo appearance by Elvis Presley and his back-up trio brought wild applause from the audiance. The continously speeding up and repeating skit by Steve Lamon and Chris Wilkinson, a Dennison's Chili contest between Tim Melden and RJ Glasgow, and a student rock band were the main atttactions of the Junior Rally. With the main intent to announce Homecoming King and Queen, Pep Squad coordinated the final winter rally.

Homecoming activities included a 50's dress-up day, a stimulating Pep Squad rally, the last game of the ping-pong tournament, and the traditional dance. On February 25, students rummaged some 20 years back through moms' and dads' old cedar chests and moth-balled garments to find the appropriate attire of a typical 50's guy or gal. Rolled-up ieans, leather iackets, ponytails, and bobby socks were seen on MHS students. Held during seventh period, the Pep Squad directed the Homecoming Rally.
