Variety drew more students Ames High students exercised their right under the first amendment to assemble peacetully. They gathered for pep assemblies as well as Student Council-sponsored assemblies. Sometimes students got out of hand when they threw Puppy Chow at the sophomore cheerleaders, ог when Mark Stokka bit the head off a live fish. Coach Kirk Daddow’s Drive For Five football team brought spirit back into the student body, and their support was strong throughout the year. The cheerleaders didn't always show up in their uniforms. They dressed up in costumes for Halloween, and Christmas, and wore army clothes for another assembly to add a change of pace. Not everyone went to the pep assemblies. “It was a wonderful opportuni- ty to go home, stated senior Jodi Johnson. There were many options for students who didn’t attend the pep assemblies. They could go to the IMC to study. or the cafeteria to talk. Seniors could use their open campus privileges to leave school. The Student Council sponsored four assemblies dealing with two issues that concerned Ames students; censorship and the draft. The Student Council adopted a policy to schedule assemblies in pairs to represent the viewpoints of both sides of an issue. Steve Asnin commented, “It’s impor- tant to show people both sides, even if one side is wrong. However special time was not allotted for these assemblies. The students had to be excused from class if they wanted to attend the assemblies. eno e EE EE SHOWING TEAM SPIRIT.
