7 ' 7 i t t t ccdSfu nU I roar of thunder radiated from the gym as passerby peered out of their car windows to see what all the commotion was about. Was it an eart hquake? A firing squad? No, it was the Fifth Annual Sports Spec- tacular. On March 15, the tradition con- tinued as classes competed for the glory of victory. They hopped with all their might in the sack race, gave it their best shot in the basketball throw, whizzed by on tiny tricycles, and cheered on their parents in the take-it-off-relay. Sunglasses and hats of every color, shape, and size imaginable decorated the stands. Freed from the usual restraints enforced upon them at school events, students were able to be a little wilder, a little swifter, and a lot noisier. Several members of the junior class, identifiable by their Hawaiian shirts, raced onto the floor and did the cockroach, a dance made famous by Na- tional Lampoon ' s Animal House . At the dance contest later that even- ing, freshmen Nick Eccles and Bey Chay strutted their stuff to Jungle Love by The Time. Sophomores Brian Eccles and Wendy Craft put their emo- tions in motion to Billy Squier ' s Rock Me Tonight . Juniors Al Plummer and Bill Wilma Dials did the hippy hippy shake to the psychedelic sounds of Wild Thing . The strains of Jungle Love echoed once more as seniors Chris Cosby and Sherrie Long, assisted by Jeff Long, John Rauh, and Tim Engel, walked away with top honors. ▲ Towing the line. Seniors R. Spencer, [. Thomson, and M. Lambrinos pull hard but succomb to the juniors. Lii Sports Spectacular
