hinting for two points is all that senior Veda Hervey can concentrate on. Desiring to join the crowd Amy Combes pulls her donkey toward the action. A pyramid of success was built by Terrence Howlet, Kenny Holman, Alfredo Colon, Roderick Herring, Steve Lounsbury, Billy Zakowski, Rick Gaynor, Mike Teyechea, Ed Daniel, Greg Panos, and Mike Meadows. Donkey basketball was just one of many activities highlighting Homecoming week. All the participants were female. To play the game they had to sell 10 tickets. Every year the seniors team up with the freshmen while the juniors and sopho- , mores get together. The game was close, but in the end the junior sophomore team came out victorious. Three year veteran, senior Amy Combes related, playing was more fun than being able to win. Throughout the game, the powder puff cheerleaders diligently cheered on the players. Their half-time entertain- ment will be long remembered because of the enjoyment they brought the crowd. They performed several cheers that they had had only a few days to learn, and cre- ated a pyramid which was designed for laughter and was successful. But at least one of the cheerleaders was totally suc- cessful, Powder puff cheerleading was a highlight of my year, confessed Kevin Potter. i QjewpiAt Sa cMs To c K i ASB Elections (I Don key Basketball

Go MoVal! Pep rallies and assemblies were here in abundance, and all were in- vited to join in the school spirit that was drummed up. The purpose of these activi- ties was to get everyone excited, and ex- citing they were. We were enlightened by multi-image shows and special speakers, while excitement was poured into us as we were pepped up for the sporting events in season. Class competitions, cheering, music and other miscellaneous surprises were the basis of those fast paced assemblies and rallies. Dave Roevers entertained us while also getting some serious points across, like drugs aren ' t cool, suicide isn ' t the answer, and don ' t be afraid to stick to your moral standards. Friday Night Live came with their multi-image production giving warn- ing of the dangers of drinking and driving. Preaching in effect, it ' s okay with us if you want to drink and party, but you don ' t have the right to drink and drive. Pep assemblies consisted of class com- petitions, cheers, and lots of music. Mor- eno Valleys best prepared us for the big game whether it was basketball or foot- ball. We had spirit, how ' bout you? Many will be the memories of pep rallies and special assemblies and those special dou- ble second periods when we spent our time together having fun. E ven teenagers can be touched by the message of some- one who cares about their concerns. The new mascot uniform helped our Viking reach new heights. During our homecoming pep assembly toga clad men ted whipped cream to the less than elegant (at the moment ) queen candidates. leC Assemblies Rallies
