Shot Through the Heart | f school is nothing else, it is con- venient for meeting members of the opposite sex. Biloxi High is a breeding ground for the beginnings, the break- ups, and the make-ups of relationships. Guys and girls spend weeks pursuing the person of their dreams only to dis- cover upon catching him or her that the person is not as great as they thought. Thus begins the process of breaking up. Love is great while it lasts, though. Couples go out of their way to walk each other to class, to meet at each other s lockers, or to meet at a des- ignated spot for assemblies. They scribble each other s names on their books and notebooks, and etch them into the desks and walls. Although it is against the rules, the sight of new loves holding hands or sneaking kisses is all too common. Of course, these people are risking a reprimand or possibly a trip to the office, but they can't help it; they are in love. 4 Traci Dartez and Brandon Taylor make the most of their time together before heading off to their next class. 4 v Rhett Taylor and Jennifer Trahan walk each other to class. ▼ Kelli McCarthy and Paul Pitalo give each other a hug. an illegal display of affection at Biloxi High 4 Like most couples.

Spirit Week Show-Offs Spirit week 1987 was begun Monday, October 12, with ex- citement. Students kept the momen- tum until the finale on Friday. College Sweatshirt Day began the week, fol- lowed by Twin Day, Tourist Day, Fif- ties and Sixties Day, and Red and White Day. The most spirited stu- dents of Biloxi High dressed for each day. Awards were given for the best costumes. College Sweatshirt Day was won by the sophomores and juniors; Twin Day, by Kelly McCarthy and Melody Miller, Shavonne Os- borne and Yolunda Osborne, Ann Leger and Shawn Houck, Mercie Gautier and Lisa Shore, and Kenny Kuhn and Matt Langlinais; Tourist Day, by Tory Fonte, Sandra Stovall, Curtis Raley, and Pat Marginis; and Fifties and Sixties Day, by Sharonda Williams, Vikki Masters, Helen Sirmon, and Angel Ponder. Most of these same students spent their af- ter-school hours helping to build their class's display. Club members were also busy building floats for the homecoming parade. After school Thursday, the home- coming parade, made up of the maids and club floats, rolled down the streets of downtown Biloxi. The Back Bay Gang was given the award for best float. Continuing a tradition, students came onto campus Thurs- day night to decorate the school. Each class decorated a different hall, and the decorations continued into the courtyard. By 11:00 p.m. Biloxi High was ready for Homecoming Day.
