Hundreds come for late yearbook party Although yearbooks were late coming in, and many grads had left for college, students packed the cafeteria at the annual yearbook signing par- ty. lt was an exciting reunion for many friends who had been separated by the division of the school. lt was really neat to see everyone again, said Linda Denfeld, a senior who found a lot ot people she hadn't seen for a while. Ideally, yearbooks have been distributed before school began, but because of delayed shipment, it was September 28 that they were handed out. A few students thought the 7:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. party was not long enough. Most people, howev- er, enjoyed themselves. Those who had not been to a yearbook signing party before, as one sopho- more put it, were amazed at how many people were there. Gwenn McGill, a senior, said lt was the best yearbook signing party that I've ever been to. When students started drifting out, it was with new books full of autographs, and lots of memo- ries from a good year.

Freshman get break at short initiation Nearly a quarter of the freshman class was scheduled to be initiated September 15. However, most freshmen really had nothing to worry about. The assembly was scheduled to last an hour and fifteen minutes. Half of the classes were dis- missed at 2:00, and half of them at 21154 By the time everyone got to the football field, less then halt an hour of school was left. Among the events were a 100-yard brother-sister piggyback race and a prune juice bottle-feeding for blacklisted offenders of initiation week rules. The assembly ended with a bombardment of whipped cream pies. Not on freshmen, though, as everyone expected. They were thrown at unsu- specting lay lohnson, student body president, by other seniors.

Spirit week contests end in Senior victory Spirit week involved initiation, assemblies, and the showing of school spirit by dressing up for blue and gold day, bum day, cowboy day, and class day. Students were greeted Friday morning by deco- rated halls, which were done with crepe paper and posters Thursday night alter the yearbook signing party. The very competitive week ended with seniors winning the hall decorating, class skits, and over- all contests. The sophomores, who placed second, objected strongly, feeling they had shown more spirit dur- ing the week. Freshman placed third and juniors, fourth. The week was topped oft by an assembly featur- ing the rally squads, a drama skit, and the seniors in a cone-head spoof on the Bend- Pendleton football game held that night.
