MARCHI G TG A N BEAT DRILL TEAM PRESSES ON The bright yellow and purple matching practice uniforms for the drill team outwardly represented the changes made on the squad. The matching shirts symbolized the uni- ty of the squad and the bright colors showed the vitality of the drill team, said Juli Sedberry. The Stingerettes began their learning with long days of practice even before school started. The Stingerettes attended summer camp at SMU in July where they learned different types of routines such as jazz, prop Cpom pons, etc.J, novelty, kick, and military. While at camp they were taught marching drills and commands. The Stingerettes were involved in many competitions and fared well. In order to be a successful Sting- erette one must be talented as well as dedicated. Camp was a lot tough- er than we expected. We were up at 6:00 and didn't stop learning, performing, and practicing until 10:80 and 11:00 at night. Everyone was so sore that they could hardly walk, but when we flew home to Lit- tle Rock we all felt better, said Jamie Vlfheat, Captain. The Sting- erettes had a new co-sponsor, Mrs. Karen Allen, former captain of the UCA drill team, who joined Mrs. Sandra Thomas.

MWEY Life might have been defined as every- thing between birth and death, but STU- DENT LIFE was a whole lot more. Living to the beat of Lionel Richie, Run DMC, Da- vid Lee Roth, and Cameo made the every- day routine of school bearable. Although skipping study hall to make a quick trip to J im's, smuggling Cokes into class, and bringing Walkmans were illegal, one found these activities were sometimes the most fun. Outside of school, rolling a house, egging a car, or generally disturbing the peace was enough to satisfy most every- one. Students weren't always found wreak- ing havoc throughout the year though. Some sat down to study because they real- ized there actually was life after high SChO01. After all, there's no turning back. Others found after school jobs a necessity Wming and perfection are essential for a stackup to succeed unless its the WETSU crew! Relying on their humorous antics for success, they practice their act before a pep rally. for the extra spending money that made student living easier. As in other years, students were found working at Target, Wild River Country, and several fast food restaurants. But all work and no play made for a very long year. lf you ask someone what they do every Friday night, and they can tell you, it is pretty boring, commented Cindy Lindsey. To ease the pressures of the academic side of life, students found dating, shopping, or just hanging out with friends at McCain Mall the perfect solution to the boredom blues. Truly, a variety was what made life worth living. Student Life 57
