Seniors Maintain Seven-Year Tradition Here I Go Again With all the events you must win in order to claim the Home- coming Spirit Jug, the most en- thusiastic class usually wins by a landslide. This year, the Senior Class of 1988 took Spirit Week, won most pep assembly games, and cap- tured first place in the float com- petition, maintaining a seven- year CHS tradition of a winning senior class. However, Homecoming 1987 did show many changes. This year the determined sopho- mores and 8th graders provided the toughest competition for the seniors. In addition, some new variety occurred in Spirit Week. 60’s day replaced the traditional 50’s day, and Halloween and Hunting Hey juniors, do you wanna “Get back to the future”? Photo-Hannon Days provided some interesting- new fashion looks. For the last six years it has been a tradition for the Senior Class to win the jug, but from 1968 to 1981 only three senior classes won, not counting the year 1970 when the Classes of 71 and 72 shared the jug. The spirited classes of 77 and ‘82 each won three years conse- cutively, while the Classes of ‘69, 73, 74, 79, and ‘81 were never given the honor. The Spirit Jug was started in 1967 in order to raise class enth- usiasm. Over the years the Spirit Jug has become a victory sought by everyone as soon as the high school level is reached. — Katie Hunter Competition for the Spirit Jug remains a tradition at Capac High.

I’ll Be There That’s What Friends Are For Amigo, kemosabi, compadre, friend. Although the names may change, the meaning is always the same. Providing a shoulder to cry on or a knowing smile, friends are the people who give you support. They’re always there when you need them, they pick you up when you fall. They’re great! “A friend needs to be loyal and honest. Once you have that in a friend you can share ever- ything with them. They become a part of you and they almost are you,” says senior Lisa Rodriguez whose best friend Colleen Parks definitely fits the bill. Sophomore Denise Felek be- lieves, ‘‘A friend is someone you can talk to and they always un- derstand you.” “Friendship isn’t based on popularity or looks, it’s based on personality. A friend is someone who isn’t two-faced. They stand by you in bad times,” remarks eighth grader Melissa Griffith. Friendship can mean differ- ent things to different people but it’s important to everyone. And when we look back many years from now we may not have the same friends, but we’ll always have the memories, and the good times together. After all, that’s what friends are for! —Melanie McNutt Friends are handy things to have around as Maria Giglio and Tonja Wil- son have found, especially in World Af- fairs.
