Most of us would run straight to our clos- est friend. Friends make high school life what it should be. Sharing everything from se- crets to clothing - it's all a part of high school life. Some even plan to go to the same college or move into an apart- ment together after graduation. Friends can be just alike or completely different. Both kinds are seen quite often. Mary Crear and Lisa Blevins are both sen- iors, which is the one thing they have in common. But still they are the best of friends. l think that the differences be- tween us make our friendship more ex- citing. Many people don't understand how we can be so close but it doesn't stop our friendship for a minute, Lisa said. An example of friends who are alike are Shannon Mays and Angie Welch. About the only differ- ence between the FRIENDS THROUGH IT ALL. Mary Crear and Lisa Blevins take time out to share thoughts after school. ,, .. Qt 7 Ad W it V l' .9 fi if A 6 ff X 9 5 , . ,,,..

4 VPU' 5 hannon Carr set three goals for himself his senior year: to eam a 4.0, to go to state in football and to be elected King Daze. He made all three. Elected in Febru- ary to meet the year- book deadline, he had to wait until April to find out. The suspense is the worst part. I think we should be told as soon as they know. All of us have to memorize the parts. If we're not e l e c t e d , w e shouldn't have to do the extra work. Miss Central knows - King Daze has to suf- fer, Shannon said. Shannon's atten- dants, Nicky Brad- ford and Lance Hix, agreed that waiting was the worst part. l've had lots of 'flow do you feel?' questions, Nicky said. lt's hard to say who's going to win. I'm still one of :so King Daze Lxi the top three. I'm not a loser, no matter what. Lance, whose par- ents are alumni, agreed with Nicky. 'iI'll be happy ifl win, but I'm still honored if I don't, he said. DAZE attendants whose family mem- bers graduated from Central had a special feeling about their election. Freshman atten- dant Russell Ponds' brother Sydney is a senior. Ult has a spe- cial meaning. I'm the youngest in the fam- ily and the last one here. I'm happy to represent Central, he said. Aaron Ciregory's mother is an alum- nae. She was ex- cited and glad. She wanted me to win be- cause she didn't win anything when she was here, he said. Derrick Walker's mother also graduat- ed from Central. lt's real special to her. She told the whole i ii . Ei ' .. if .. . I ..g Wlfzng Daze has to sulifer. E Q family. lt's the high- est honor a fresh- man can get, he said. The second time around was better for junior Jimmy Teter. I'Ie was an at- tendant his fresh- man year. I'm more comfortable, not as nervous, he said. UI'm more honored now that l've been here awhile. I didn't understand the tradi- tion when I was a freshman. Now I do. Attendants who were less familiar with the tradition were still excited by their elections and their classmates' re- actions when the re- Sl.lltS Were afl- nounced. I was in math. Mr. Fisher congratulated me. The class was yelling and scream- ing, Bennie Cole- man said.
