The game was familiar but the players sure weren't the ones usually seen. These players were girls, and they had taken over the football field, also a strange group of cheerleaders was present on the sidelines. The occasion was the powderpuff foot- ball game. The game was held to raise money for the Junior-Senior prom. The seniors had Don Denton as their coach, and Don Landrum coached the junior team. Even though plenty of action took place on the field, most of the spectators en- joyed the show on the sideline more. With Ben Gramling, Randy McCarter, Todd Johnson, Scott Guy, Rochon John- son and Joe Copeland cheering in their costumes, many hilarious events stole the attention of the fans' away from the game. The unconventional cheering method of these cheerleaders resulted in many outbreaks of riotous laughter. The final score of 6-0 was the result of a touchdown by the seniors. But the ju- niors promised to get even if they had the chance. Wigs, jumpers, sweaters, and light skirts were used to outfit the cheerleaders like Todd Johnson and Randy McCarter. Double Standard e Rosemary Matthews celebrated the only touch down as the juniors just turned away. Cheerleaders Todd Johnson, Joe Copeland, and Scott Guy discussed the cheers they would perform during half-time. 22 Powderpuff Game

All That Pomp And Circumstance Everyone knew what graduation was, and the importance of it. But most seniors were not prepared for the great amount of pomp and circum- stance that they had to go through before graduation. A new invitation had to be chosen, the color of the gowns had to be voted on, and even the color of the tassel was debated. The seniors voted on a class color, a class flower, and a class quote. Blue and white carnations were chosen as the flowers for the graduation ceremo- nies. The quote, “Success is not mea- sured by where we are when we finish but by the obstacles we overcome to get there, was chosen by the class of eighty-one as their motto. Mascots and a speaker also had to be chosen. Once all of these decisions had been made the seniors had to pay for ever- ything. Caps, gowns, and tassels, invitations, and senior keys were the first things to be ordered. Even diplomas had to be purchased by the seniors. Then, as the bills for flowers, ribbons, and the speaker's fee began arriving the amount was divided and each senior had to pay his share of the expenses. Jervis Clayton thought that it was amusing, that seniors were depended on for all types of jobs. 24 Graduation
