HOHECCMIN6- AM EVENING WITH I I IN I “It was cold as ice and I nearly froze and we won the game, remembers jun- ior Carla Watson about homecoming night October 24. As the temperature dropped below freezing in a 24 hour period, the homecoming court had to endure the weather as they were pre- sented at mid field in the 7:30 ceremony before the 8 P.M. kickoff. Lea Ann Geis was crowned queen by Principal Dennis Fitzgerald. Other members of the court were seniors Sandi Tutt and Lisa Burkeen; juniors Melaine Couch, Lisa Hum, and Carla Watson; and Sophomores Sharon Fortner and Angie Sims. The girls were escorted by their fathers as the band and drill team stood at attention on the field. Younsters Natalie Inmon and Brent Barnard assisted Principal Fitzgerald by carrying the flowers and crown. “A tribute to Walt Disney” was the theme for the evening's decorations. Mini-floats and run throughs reflecting the Disney theme were displayed. They were made by the various clubs and had been judged at the homecoming pep rally. 1980 Homecoming Queen, Lea Ann Geis is escorted by her father, Mr. Tom Geis.

Boys', Girls' State Teaches Awareness At first I counted the days, but then I got to know everyone and had a great time. It really made me aware of how politics affect me. This was Ceorgc Sawaya's reaction to Boys' State as the seventeen delegates found that they were in for five davs of strenous activitcs. Eacn year the American Legion sponsors Boys' and Ciris' State for outstanding juniors in Arkansas schools. Delegates arc given a change to role play and learn about the political system. They arc selected by vote of the faculty. Each dav's activitcs started with calisthenics at 6 a.m. ana continued until lights out at 11 p.m. Highlights of the week included guest speakers suen as the governor and senators and a visit to the state capitol on the closing day where students elected to state offices actually got to pretend they were politicians for a day. Sherry Crockett's conclusion on the week was It turned out to be more exciting than I expected. I met a lot of different people and learned a lot of new things.
