Beat Provine Week i - 'K gf sljg, V S ' V lnitiates Lively Contests 4-053 and Activities For one entire week, the minds of Murrahites re- volved around one thought-Beat Provine! Each home- room participated' in a door design contest with w. shakers awarded to the ingenious homeroom display- ing the best door decoration. The cheerleaders acted as executioners, painting a red dot on the nose of stu- dents daring to wear red on the day of the game. Following the spirited pep rally, the student body pro- ceeded in the traditional march around the school. Al- though the game was postponed because of rain, spirit remained high until the night when the Mustangs defeated the Provine Rams 14-O. Singing the fight song and cheering boisterously, Murrahites follow the annual tradition of marching around the school.
