Threatened Olympic Boycott By Juniors Fizzles The lighting of the torch began the Olympic games held January 17. The competitors from each class marched in procession around the gym floor, headed by their original class flag. Juniors marched proudly behind their flag, deter- mined to make up for a poor placement in an earlier competition at a pep asse- bly. All of the flags were done in school colors. The senior flag took first place with the colors black and red and the year eighty sparkling in the flags center. Competitive events included the slam dunk, an obstacle course, a tug of war, arm wrestling, a Sprite guzzle, a marsh- mallow stuff, jump rope, the best looking legs, the limbo, a jello snarf. a tube relay, and spoon stringing. One of the most rowdy events was to see which class could yell the loudest. The officers of each class came onto the floor by their section and used such things as garbage cans, drums, and pots and pans to create noise. The event was measured by a sound meter. The winners of this event were the juniors. (Who. by the way got their revenge). The defending champions, this year's sophomores (last year's freshmen) just managed to take third place this year The freshmen took fourth place, juniors second, and the reigning Olympic cham- pions were the Seniors.
