mono than a brick wan Despite rumors to the contrary, M.H.S. was not a prison of work, not all 73 teachers were slave driv- ers, and there was time for a little fun for the 1778 who attended. Besides it ' s basic brick and steel construction, the territory at 8808 Columbia was made up of activities, sports, color, signs, books, clubs, dances, spirit, and most of all people. The school meant different things to different people, and despite the hectic days of the 1974-75 year, the school still survived. Recapping everything that happened is an im- possible task, but there were little things that are sure to stick in people ' s minds. The Highland pep rally in all its yellow, blue, pink, white, streamers helped boost the football team on to secure the bridge, as the seniors tried to top all the other classes in shouting . . . Spirit week where kids dressed up in unbelievable clothes and one boy dared to wear a wig . . . This is Seahorse country rang true across Indiana as the Seahorses captured their third straight State Championship . . . Debate teams met in the finals of the State meet, winning first and second place and an immense silver trophy, only to go on and qualify for Nationals. Winning was not everything as there were a few disappointments on the playing field and in the classroom . . . The endless days in a row when the fire alarms would go off and everyone was forced outside in order that the building be searched for a non-existent fire . . . pine-bordered windows re- placing broken glass from excessive vandalism . . . sardine-like classrooms where bodies were packed wall-to-wall . . . feeling like a mouse in a maze trying to find the unchained door. M.H.S. had its good sides and its bad. But it was the people and events that made it all happen, that kept it together, and made it something more than a brick building. i THIS 6S S6RHOR$€ COUOTI
