Reynolds A Showing spirit, students were Jl smiles ■ rom the first week of school through November, one thing inevitably returned to the average student’s mind — FOOTBALL. Being a person of an or- ganization that was involved in this sport took time and energy. If you don’t like to sleep, don’t want a social life and have nothing to do on the weekends, join band.’’ob- served senior flag corps member Andrea Adams. The football team, band, drill, pep squad, and cheer- leaders were not the only ones at the pep assemblies and football games. The largest percentage of the people consisted of just people involved in cheering their school to victory while having a little fun Pep assemblies are great for student morale. After an assembly on Friday there’s electricity in the air for the rest of day. said senior Gloria Rodrigues. Football games provided Friday or Saturday night, fun with time at the game ussu- ally consisting of socializing. seeing friends while being seen by others, and maybe catching a few plays of foot- ball in between. But these activites were not always perfect. With the instigation of House Bill 72 It’s neat looking out and seeing yourself doing something for school spirit. We’re really not performing, we lead cheers to get crowd involvement. -Teri Mitchell and no-pass, no-play, the pep assemblies - and football games changed after the first six weeks. The pep as- semblies were, for the second year, held before school. The assemblies started at 7:45 a.m. and continued usually through 8:15 q.m. With the instigation of no-pass, no- play ineligible band students were placed in a mandatory pre-school hours study hall which prevanted their at- tending pep assemblies Attendence at the game was also restricted to ineligi- ble students. Band, drill, and pep squad members who were ineligible were not al- lowed to associate with their groups at the game. When 1 first became ineligible 1 felt like my world had fallen apart because 1 was not able to participate in school ac- tivities. 1 didn’t have any school spirit. No-pass, no- play is good, but there are too many loopholes. It will prob- ably help me in the long run but it doesn’t help me now,” said flag corps member Angie DuBois. Whether students were in a spirit organiztion, eligible or not, or just a fan at the game football games con- tinued to be an important part of high school life. De- spite before school as- semblies House Bill 72, and Saturday night games, the football game remained a great way to just have some fun. -Dee Geiger Spirit acitivtties Student life

 Anything goes. . . . baroque, baggy shirts, plaids or mix and match. A lot of these were fashions that gave way to creativity. Fashion allowed practi- cally anything. Everyone was his own fashion designer. “Paisley, mix and match, big shirts . . . anything goes,” were the words sophomore Monica Crenshaw used. Students wanted indi- viduality, something that re- vealed their personalities— not someone else’s or some- thing out of a magazine. If it’s Monday, 1 want to change the blues of the day by wearing something that shows the happier side of me,” said sophomore Ad- rianna Cervantes. Unique- ness and orginality were a major part of fashion. Fashion sould not be what’s in a magazine or what someone else has on, but “Fashion should not be what’s in a magazine or what someone else has on but what you feel like wearing.” -Vickie Wilson what you feel like wearing,” said junior Vickie Wilson. “As long as it looks good and is comfortable, the tradi- tional look is the look I like,” said Kevin Canida. The uniqueness and creativity of students’ fash- ion is immense. Ranging from the sophisticated looks to the cool and conservative looks, students tried to wear what best suited his person- ality. It all proved that any style you chose is just your h Pe‘ -Debra Villarreal Birds of a feather Keilh Campbell and Chad Char and arc mirror ima ui of each other as they socialize in the student center wearing fashionable paisley.
