ne of the most ex- citing parts of the 1979-80 year at LAHS was Home- coming week. Throughout the five days various activities kept the spirit high, and early Thursday morning students finished their hall decora- tions. That night at the traditional Bonfire, the Freshmen said good riddance” to their beanies after wearing them for eight long weeks. With shouts of Beat Cahon City Abbey Bears echoing in the halls, students made their way to what was destined to be one of the most rowdiest pep assemblies of the year. After the parade, school was dis- missed for the day to prepare for the game. And at half-time. Home- coming Queen candidates Becky Nicklos. Rhonda Morlan. Mardi Moore, and Sherry Stwalley waited in anticipation. Finally the news was announced and the lovely Miss Moore was crowned. After winning their first win of the season, the Trojans celebrated the occasion at the traditional Home- coming Dance. Black Irish provided the music. As the night came to an end with ears still ringing, everyone was prouder than ever to have been a part of Homecoming '79 Class representatives — Donna Delaney.

Couples Enjoy Time Spent Together At Annual Y-Teen Formal fter a long week of pre- paring and decorating, the Y-Teen Formal was held at LAHS on Decem- ber 15. As couples entered the cafetorium, they immediately noticed the beautiful decora- tions in silver and green. And the minute Black Diamond began playing, everyone prepared themselves for a good time. Toward the end of the evening. Sopho- mores Manuel Archuleta and Deanna Kilpa- trick were crowned as king and queen of the dance; and the night continued with smiling faces and everyone moving to the beat . Ready and Waiting If time could be saved in a bottle, the Y- Teen Formal would definitely be one part of the 1979-80 year everyone would want to save. 10
