SPIRIT PREVAILS How much were AHS athletes really worth? They were purchased by the highest bidding student or faculty member at a slave auction, one of the highlights of Homecom- ing week. The slaves spent one day carrying books, cleaning lockers, and fulfilling other requests of their masters. Other activities included a kick-off assembly, a car bash, and a leg contest. Don DoBell and Gail Ganske were crowned king and queen at the cor- onation ceremonies. Bad weather forced the bonfire to be cancelled. The late-night tradition of decorat- ing athletes houses was discon- tinued because of last year's damages. A huge pep assembly on Friday, dedicated to former student Linda Jones helped fire up the students. An Ames police officer took noise level readings to judge a cheering contest involving the three classes. Despite the enthusiasm, the Little Cyclones lost to the West Waterloo Wahawks, 0- . The Homecoming dance followed the game, and was well attended, with Smokey Moses providing the music. Activities during Homecoming pro- vided more students with a chance to get involved in school activities. Homecoming brings the school together, Paul VanDenBosch Summed up. Above: GO, TEAM, ROCK!
