Reagah tops HEWS list As always the world experienced its share of good and bad news during the year. Topping the list of newsmakers and events was President Ronald Reagan WhO met with Soviet Leader Mikhail Gorbachev in Geneva and recuperated from serious cancer surgery during the summer. Arroyans were as shocked as anyone about the devastating earth- quakes which hit Mexico City and the tragedy which occured in Columbia when a volcano exploded. Many Dons feared for relatives in both nations, but hO bad hEWS of local tI'3QEdV EVOiVEd, ahd all Al'l'OV3hS' I'Ei3tiVES WEFE fOUhd safely. lh SDOl tS the school W3tChEd with EZQEI' 3htiCiD3tiOhi3S did the Ehtil'E h3tiOhi when Pete ROSE of the CihCih' hatti Reds broke Ty CObb'S all-time hit I'eCOl d with his hiStOriC 4, 192 slam 3Q3ihSt Sah DiEQO.

Only having four days in Spirit Week instead of five, the classes knew they had to work hard and fast to pull rou- tines and skits together. 'Arroyo SaIuteS America' was the theme for what seemed to be an average week in the eyes of many students. 'lt could have been a lot better, the last couple of years have been the best. We need more participation' stated Junior Carrie Oliveira. A lot of Studel1tS had that feeling and it showed. The IaCk of participation was blamed on the weather and the ever- famous Classes of '86 and '87 rivalry was not as strong, but did spur the week onto new heights. Monday was class color day, and students found out for the first time what was happening during Spirit WEEK. While participation on the first day was less than desirable, it picked up later in the week. Lunch rallies were downplayed by the rain and an 'I don't care attitude.' 'All the classes tried their best and eventually, there had to be a winner, but we all had fun,' said Sophomore Doug Berryhill, who modeled the atti- tudes of many other students. The feeling at the dance Friday night was one of high emotion and unity among all the classes. As the winners were announced in every category, nobody had a Clue as to who the overall winner would be. As the Junior Class was announced as winner forthe second year in a row, President Jennifer Gregory was hosted onto the shoulders of fellow classmates and it was a mark of another Spirit Week gone by. 'l was happy that everybody else was happy, and they were giving me credit for it all when it was everybody who made it happen,' said Gregory about her class' victory. Spirit Week
