k.V Carnival comes to town Get your popcorn here! Three tries for a dollar! Like to try your luck, sir? That ' s carney talk. These, and so many more expres sions could be heard on San Gorgonio ' s student parking lot during the third weekend of October. That ' s when the carnival came to town. Student Council planned the car- nival to raise money for school clubs. It ended as a big school activity that lifted spirit because most every club on campus participated. Club members were encouraged to run games and food booths that would in turn raise money for their particular club. Mecha, Showgroup, Alive, Faculty club and CSF ran the food and drink booths. They sold combo cups, pop- corn balls, candy and caramel apples, corndogs, and soda to wash it all down with. Diamond, AFS, freshmen class and German club, just to name a few, ran a variety of game booths. Nearly everyone, old and young, had a good time. I had a blast the two days I went, com mented junior, Bethie Brubaker. Of course, with a carnival comes rides. Nearly all went up and down and round and round. There were also rides for the little ones. There was the scrambler, a giant yellow slide, and a ferris wheel. I got sick on the yellow bathtub ride, said Kimale Sue Hud- son, a junior at San G. Even after money was spent, car- nival food was eaten, and stomachs were settled after radical rides, children, students, parents and grand- parents alike could come home from San G ' s first carnival and honestly say that they had a good time.

You are what you wear One could say dressing up on San G ' s cam pus became a regular event over the past school year. Every Friday, football players and cheerleaders dressed in school colors for that night ' s football game. Homecoming week came and people wore three foot spotted ties. Dad ' s old neckties, and big bow ties. They wore baggy shirts and plaid pants on Rock a- Billy day, and black, blue and white on school Halloween was the most unusual day of all for dressing up. Clowns, ghosts, witches, vam- pires, and cats invaded the grounds. Some of the unigue costumes, such as the favorable cartoon character Smurf, a pair of dice, and many more were noticed throughout the day. They got peculiar looks and comments from all who passed. Individuality, character, and overall school spirit was shown through a costume that one chose. For instance, trying to choose a dif- ferent . more unusual costume showed uniqueness. One ' s character could be brought out by a costume. A clown costume could per suade a person to become more outgoing, more laughable. Whereas an angel costume could make a person more timid Dressing up and getting involved in school activities promoted school spirit It helped remove the pressures of everyday school life and by doing so. made a happier student body. After all. you are what you wear. 76 student life
