CHAOTIC CROWDS One way students measure a year is by whether or not the auds were good. Some enjoyed the various types of auds — informative, enter- taining, and pep; while others forced themselves to sit for what seemed like endless hours. Probably the most well-liked assem- bly was the homecoming aud. Cheerleaders got the fans fired up for the big homecoming game with challenge cheers. Jonna Archer, Brad Mann, and Rick Deregules got it to- gether and put on an amusing skit about a plain girl who became homecoming queen and went to the dance with the big football jock. The most exciting moment was the crowning of homecoming queen, Becky Meier. The homecoming aud was definitely one of the best in re- cent years. Another popular aud was the out- door pep rally for the Central-West game. A unique touch was added to the aud when Penni McCubbin, dressed as the blue devil, paraded through the Central fans on her horse. Magnum. But the aud wasn't complete until Senior Class Presi- dent Arlyn Stotts gave his pep talk from the balcony in front of the school. Many students got involved in the pep auds. ”1 liked the Cen- tral-West aud best because it got ev- erybody together and enthused about our school's rival, stated Maggie Campbell. Another of the better auds was the Christmas Program put together by the CHS music department. The or- chestra, A Cappella, and Senior En- semble put forth their combined ef- forts to perform Christmas music that put everyone into the spirit of the season. Sometimes auds were provided to keep students informed about cur- rent events. When Chip Carter came to Central, he discussed his father's campaign issues for the '80 election and gave students the chance to ask questions. The archery aud was rather unusual. Bob Markworth, who had appeared on The Merv Griffen Show, amazed students with his ability to shoot balloons held in his wife, Mayana's, teeth while he was blind-folded and on his back. Whether one attended an aud to be informed or just entertained, the as- semblies had something for every- one. Spirit, enthusiasm and confidence arc gener- ated at the Pep Aud for the football game against West. Photo by M. Bennett. 24
