Four freshmen were introduced to new responsibilities in leading their class: President Scott Stroup, Vice- President Stacy Hamilton, Secre- tary Kristine Reidy, Treasurer Tru- dy Moyer. These select people learned how to make decisions for their class members, not on personal feelings but trying to gage how their peers felt about important class mat- ters. Civics class was a new learning experience for freshmen. Not only did they read and study a textbook, but they read and discussed articles from Time magazine. Homecoming was quite a surprise for those experiencing it for the first time. Not just the Homecoming game was exciting, but also the events that always go along with it. Spirit week was new and different only for the freshmen, but it was en- joyed by all. The annual bonfire was held the night before the big game. Many frosh just weren ' t sure what it was going to be like, but they attended despite their inhibitions and had fun. To top off the week the hour long pep session on Friday was held at the football field as usual and will not be soon forgotten. Freshmen got their first peek at the school spirit Blackford possesses. The highlight of Homecoming, aside from winning the game, was the coronation of the queen. For Dixie Batten, who was chosen as the Princess of the Fresh- men Class, the night was especially thrilling. She and her escort Pete Griffith walked proudly onto the field and looked a little nervous but very happy. To draw an end to the 1979 Home- coming the Frosh held a party for all those who helped work on the float. It was held in Scott Stroup ' s garage, the site of the float ' s construction.
