Traditions saw another change with the addition of a Winter Spirit Week. Due to the fact that the student body was not well informed, the week started slow. But as people found out, the days ended up being a lot of fun. Included in the regular activities was the Slave Sale and the addition of Mr. Muskrat. The slaves performed the traditional antics on slave day, while a packed house watched Tom Marchin crowned Mr. Muskrat. Opinions were mixed about the new addition. Scott Boyle liked the idea: “People should give more support to the school. However, Shawn Gough felt that “spirit week should be only for football season.” Many others felt it was a good break as the winter began. “It breaks up a boring part of the school year.” (Beth Sylvester) Most importantly, it rekindled school spirit. “We needed a spirit builder. No one was happy with the first one.” (Cathy Cross) 18 .

Elegant Night To Remember Although the damp night and low hanging clouds threatened rain, October 10 was a somewhat tearful and overall success. Alumni members Gail Hoskin David, 1961 Homecoming Queen and Charles Christy, football team member were present for the evening. 1961 Student Council President, Tom Clark honored Anne Sanchagrin with the special touch of an Hawaiian lei. It was a bittersweet evening as the Band honored Mr. Appelman with a plaque. The Band also gave a special tribute by playing the Alma Mater, which Mr. Appelman wrote. The eyes of many alumni, parents and students filled with tears. The evening’s climax came when Anne Sanchagrin was crowned Queen. Escort Gino Petrovich reacted enthusiastically to Anne’s selection. Another highlight of the evening was the presentation of the Spirit Jug to the Sophomores. Homecoming 17
