CAUGHT IN AN AWKWARD SITUATION At least once in a lifetime, everyone gets caught in an embarrassing situation. Sometimes it causes the blood pressure to rise and the face to turn red, even a slight smile from ear to ear can appear. But there are times when these moments can turn to complete disaster. Moments such as these are unchangeable and worst yet, no one forgets them. Being at Tucker County High School created many opportunities for having embarrassing moments. With the ice STEP into my parlor. Taken by surprise. Tom Hedrick was found taking it easy in the store room in the office between classes. covered steps in the winter, crowded halls and lockers between classes, and school suspension for smoking in a bathroom stall, it seemed like there were traps all over to catch students in those not so pleasurable moments. One student’s embarrassment happened while she was stepping off of her bus. “I was wearing very slick shoes and when I stepped off of the bus, I stepped on a piece of ice. Needless to say. I fell on my ? @ ! My face turned blood-red, but I just laughed about it and walked away with a grin on my face.” “No matter what happens in life, the potential for embarrassing moments remains. But with a slightly reddened face, a foot in the mouth, and a heightened blood pressure, these moments can be dealt with if one just learns to grin and bear it. After all. everyone makes a fool of themselves at one time or another. quotes Tim Harman of Morgantown High School. I know it’s in here somewhere. In a mad rush between classes.

High Students. The Class of '89 got off to a slow start with their fundraising. In the beginning, this class was said to be the laziest in the histo- ry of the school (maybe that was just cre- ative motivation). But the Sophomore Class tried to get into the swing of things this past year. During the summer, the kids tried to have a car wash at Greenlief’s Funeral Home, and although only a few attended they had a lot of fun and made a little money on the side. When the 1986-87 school year started. Miss Usnik tried to use team spirit during football season by making two large stuffed footballs that donned the school colors to be chanced off. Mr. Klus tried to inspire the class with a very enthusiastic speech and an idea almost as clever. The kids went door to door selling mugs and tumblers. Although the results weren’t in. they probably did a good job in their efforts to raise money with these sales. The class officers seemed to know what they were doing and tried their best for their fellow classmates but the money making attempts failed so miserably that it was a wonder they weren’t in the hole. With the Battle of the Classes just end- ing and the juniors winning the money prize, they suffered yet another setback for raising money. But the sophomores haven't given up yet!
