DAYS BEFORE THE WAR The countdown for WW III. Anita vs. A-C, began Sunday. October 5 as the Spartans let off some steam through intramural volleyball games. The faculty came out on top. To entertain our troops, the freshman class held the annual Gong Show on Sunday. The Gong Show honors were taken by the little cheerleaders: Jill Jcssen, Leslie Willet. and Adrienne Willet. Monday the civilians doubled the spirit by dressing like another person. On Tuesday the student body leaders assigned a hallway to each class to decorate according to the theme. The Juniors took top honors by having the best camouflaged hallway. The senior football players did a routine to “Another One Bites the Dust’4 at their pep rally on Tuesday. On Wednesday, AHS looked like it was in a time machine as student wore clothing from out of the 50’s. Thursday was slave day, all student council and class leaders were sold to the student body. The faculty also took part in the enthusiasm on Thursday during the activity period, with a pep rally (including cheerleaders), pep band, and coronation skit.
