The Ziggy Connection To add to their numbers. the sophomore class adopted Ziggy as their class mascot. Ziggy showed up on Mrs. Jerri Rotenberry's desk about two months after school started. and the saga began. Even the juniors didn't take as many hard-knocks as Ziggy. During the year Ziggy was boiled in water, pushed off a building. forced to walk the plank, shot at and hanged from the ceiling. Most ofthis torture was dished out by sophomores Tony Franzetti and Mike Jones. His shirt says 'nobody's perfect'. and we wanted to prove it. said Mike. Drawing thosc pictures to abuse Ziggy was the only thing we could think of to do to pass the time during homeroom. Big Shorty. B.S. for short, continued to plague Ziggy through the year. Somehow or other he always showed up to do some type of bodily harm to Ziggy. Ziggy's smiling face and T-shirt was too much for Tony. No matter what we did to him. he continued to smile, Tony explained. So, we continued to try and find a way to stop him from smiling. but nothing worked. Everybody else may have had their E.T. and Barbie dolls. but P.A. and the sophomores would always have their Ziggy. Airborn. Ziggy heads toward a ski ramp as Big Shorty drives the boat. This was only one ofthe perils Ziggy faced during the year.

. Size S no reason for not having fun lf good things come in small packages the class of '85 must have been a great little bundle. The 41 sophomores made up the smallest class in P.A. Perhaps the sports teams suffered the most from the size ofthe class. Tenth grade varsity football players numbered only two, and male basketball sophomores were extinct. The number of girls was more significant. Three were on the basketball team and three on drill team, while four sophomore girls were senior high cheerleaders. Because of the sophomores' meager population, fund raising money stretched farther. lf we make a lot of money, said Cindy Tackett, we can go some place really nice for our senior trip. The class's smallness did have its disadvantages. We're so small that Biology, usually a tenth grade course, has more freshmen than sophomores, Julie Pierce said. At semester the class's size dwindled by four. Within a week, three ofthese students returned. Angie Harrison explained, We get along better because all the people who don't want to be here have left. Although some felt the class was a disgrace, sophomores were generally content with their little legion. As Sherman Moore said, One thing is for sure, when we're seniors, there will be plenty of parking spaces to go around. Rock review.
