DIFFERENT this year was the beginning of Toga Day in the lead-up activities for Homecoming. The week before the Homecoming football game students dressed to differ- ent themes to show school spirit and to generate support for a winning Homecoming game. Senior Robert Riley and other Noble Romans roamed the halls of Cardinal the day before the game itself. A DIFFERENCE facing Cardinal and all Iowa schools is the shortage of teacher coaches. This year Cardinal's volleyball and girls' basketball assis- tant coach was Ms. Lisa Northup. Ms. Northup is not on staff at Cardinal, but she works as a substitute teacher for the Pekin schools. Football also involved a non-certified teacher as Mr. Dave Huffman worked as an as- sistant football coach. A DIFFERENCE in extracurricular activities was the initiation of a Christmas Dance. Radio station K.OTM 97.7 FM from Ottumwa spon- sored the dance and furnished the DJ, Scott Hughes, and the music. This dif- ference was brought about at the re- quest of students for more school dances. Held on December 20, the dance the upcoming winter school break.
