Most of their hair has grown back since their Go: Bald' campaign last spring. | “You mean they actually shaved their heads? Get seri- ous! “Yep. But the U.S. Presidential candidates wouldn't ٥٦ that far — it was a close race to the finish line until November 8, when Bush and Quayle took the lead. Speaking of races, how about the boys’ and girls’ track ` teams! For the second year straight both ran away with Metro ۲ titles. Then the boys went on to capture State and the girls mis- FEE sed the title by three points, placing third. | “And don't forget the other successful teams: the boys basketball team's number one ranking in the state, the journey to the state football playoffs, the volleyball team captured the | Metro title, and both the girls and boys tennis teams captured Metro titles. 7 Seriously? That's impressive! AHS not only took sports 4 seriously, but also academics. There were 14 National Merit 3 scholar Finalists, Speech Club sent four individuals and one group to All-State, the Academic Decathlon team took second 3 at State and the Academic Enterprises captured eighth place - in the nation. | | also heard that over a quarter of a million dollars was jj awarded to certain lucky scholarship winners. | Not too shabby. | guess that's why they say ‘Ames ٦ Aims High', huh? And thanks to the passage of the Enrichment Tax, taxpayers will pay up to $950,000 a year during the next three years to help the Ames school system to aim even high- er. continued on p. 4 | Åtter receiving a bloody note in the One- Act A Game of Chess, freshman Sandra ` Deluca, sophomore Todd Hawbaker and se- nior Dan Anderson ponder their next move. - (Photo by Doug Adams) |

I'll never forget the ۸7 conflict where three students were suspended and the whole © incident was scrutinized by the community; threats from par- ents and the administration to cancel the Mistletoe Dance un- = less students behaved themselves; and the traditional Home- ] coming bonfire was extinguished from Ames High, thanks to } a new city ordinance since it had been so dry during the sum- j mer. “Oh, yeah — Homecoming and other football games were T quite different this year. Remember the ‘pumpkin heads’ and } the orange-hatted senior guys? They really helped to generate T some school spirit at the games. And then there was the Powd- N erpuff game and the senior 'hitlists'. But, enthusiasm deflated H for that game since it was raining. H Rain and unusually cold weather also hit during Drake P Relays and Veishea, which ruined the typical “sunbathing” tra- }) dition. It was impossible to find the sun when we needed it! | And don't forget another disappearance — the pencil jj sharpener handles were missing all year, due to senior ۲ pranks!” That was such a hassle, my pencil was continually dull ٦ Well, dull or not, the year had its ups and downs.
