Homecoming without a football team-is this possible? “It really doesn’t matter, it’s just another dance to go to,” Freshmen Amie Stolz along with Celia Skinner and Martye Martin seemed to think although they did not attend. Although few freshmen attended the dance, most went to the spirit rally. Martye Martin “felt dumb,” during the spirit rally because she said, “Our class did not have enough school spirit.” Martye also recalled, “a lot of people including Anne Rogers didn’t wear red.” “I was also embarrassed during the banana eating contest,” replied Martye. Freshmen Donald Hobney confessed “I thought I really won.” Laughing Donald Said, “It was the most embarrassing moment for me and our freshmen class during our first high school careers.” After the spirit rally, everyone congregated to the football field for the long awaited games, food and live music. Anne Rogers recalled, “The pizza from the Key Club was the best.” “I liked it all-the food, the games, and the music,” added Celia Skinner. “I better get used to it because I’ve got three more years of Magnet’s Homecoming.” YOU WANNA DANCE? — From freshmen to alumni, students seem to unite in school spirit as they listen to the tunes of “The Band’’ during Homecoming 87. SENIORS! — During the Homecoming spirit rally, Shea Anderson is enjoying herself during her last year at Magnet.

An-ti-ci-pa-tion For many freshmen, going to Magnet High can be an ex- citing yet a frightening exper- ience. Most freshmen agreed that they feared unknown. While talking with Senior John Hext, Arnie Stolz said, “I thought it was going to be demanding, but it really isn’t.” But John replied, “Oh- just wait and see, believe me it will get harder, I know.” Martye Martin anticipated that “there were going to be a lot of nerds running around,” but she said, “Now I know that there are quite a few nor- mal-looking people here.” Anticipation grows inside all freshmen as they look for- ward to cars, dates, dances, and the Freshmen Party. Ar¬ nie recalled wanting to go to the party but said, “I didn’t go to the party because, well be- cause I didn’t have a ride.” Rumors of hard Science classes and semester exams really are the harsh reality that no one ever mentions. That’s why many freshmen have to adjust to so many new things when they become “Magnetized.” PSSST — Freshman-Allan Moore seems to fit right into the crowd as seniors Stephen Vekovious, Emery Geyer, and Tracey Edwards teli him a few pointers. g;-. % m f f k ll F • t.-xrrfi frr fi W i- 1 m John Bokenfohr Patrick Blake Jennifer Bisson Lakeesha Bishop James Bell Emily Bell Phillip Beavers Eddy Beard Jr Eric Beach Daphne Baylor Brad Batterbee Charles Banner Lee Banks Mary Bane Rhonda Baldwin Jennifer Baker Lora Bailey Maria Autrey Christopher Atkinson Jennifer Ashby 4 i FRESHMEN 1

FREEESHHH — Freshman officers Catherine Teague (President), Margaret Sale (Vice president), Ann Rogers (secretary), and Tiffany Chambliss (treasurer) take it easy as they look forward to their next four years. “We’re trying to be really good officers by putting our best foot forward,” Margaret Sale, vice-president, explains, “We want to get a lot of class spirit going.” Although Ann Rogers, secretary, agreed with Margaret, certain sources have found that Ann did not wear red to the Homecoming spirit rally. Margaret explained that the freshmen officers, who included president Catherine Teague and treasurer Tiffany Chambless, planned to promote spirit by having parties, dances, or something fun,” she continued, “just so everyone won’t think weTe unproductive and no fun. Surely there was a stigmatism put on the freshmen classes in the past but as president Catherine put it, “Freshmen are students that used to be upperclassmen.” The freshman class of ’88 have more to live up to, but they also have four more years to accomplish their goals and aspirations, while the juniors and the seniors have almost reached their height.
