Seniors Amy Wright and Shannon McSwain beame punkers when the Student Council sponsored “ounk day”. Shamrocks And Hearts Tired of the same old spirit week, fifties day, round-’em up day, and all the others? Well, this year the student council sponsored a new day — punk day—anditwas... different. Blue and green hair, plastic bag shirts, and black lipstick were the fashion of the day on February 5, before the Crest ballgame. Students came dressed in punk clothes to show their spirit for the team. Some of the more popular items were Chains, black satin pants, lightening bolts on the face, and ‘Blues Broth- ers'’ sunglasses. At the pep rally, a special performance by ‘‘Rick James and the Punket- tes’’ was given to the sounds of ‘‘Superfreak’”’. Another new activity sponsored by the stu- dent council was ‘‘Hush Day’’. On February 12, ev- ery girl was given a heart to wear. If she spoke to a boy outside of class, she had to give him her heart. On St. Patrick’s Day, the roles were re- versed and each boy worked to keep his Shamrock. The student with the most hearts or shamrocks received a prize of five dollars. New ideas added more enthusiasm to the same ole’ school blues. And it gave everyone some- thing different to re- member the special days for.
