Raising rCash Crop ell, sell, sell, sell ... As stu- . dents heard the motto of year- r book advertisements trail off the morning announcements, they wondered to themselves, Why do I have to sell things, What is the money needed for? Many items are sold throughout the year, big ' and small. From advertise- ments for the Lu-Hi Voice, to expen- sive automobiles at the auction. Mon- ey was raised from donations too. We now have $742,504 in pledges from 1302 people or institutions, said Mr. Dick Katt, a leader of the Golden Grace Crusade. Golden Grace funds were used to install the new bleachers in the gym- nasium, and new lockers for the lock- er rooms. More will be spent on resur- facing the parking lot, and other repair jobs around the school. These repairs were definitely needed considering this building is over 20 years old, said Katt. The annual cheese and sausage sale brought forth record-breaking sales, even without matching funds from AAL. Students earned over $10,000 by selling 5,800 units of cheese and sau- sage, which went toward new robes and risers for the choir. The senior class went about raising money for their trip by selling Cadet spirit bumper stickers and coupon books for restaurants. Several juniors earned $225 for their class by taking inventory at the Casual Corner in Southtown Mall for two hours. I thought taking inventory at the Casual Corner was a really good idea. It wasn ' t boring because you could talk to your friends, said junior class president Kolleen Macke. It was easy too because all you had to do was count. — Tim Klage While sitting in the student lounge, sopho- mote Becky Carter sells a sucker to senior Amy Pyle to raise money for gymnastics.

To reduce the cost of the military ball, JROTC member Tim Harroun, junior, directs traffic to parking spaces at the Homecoming game. As senior girls crowd around the table be- tween the trophy cases, they frantically try to sign up to buy their favorite football player to escort at the Homecoming assembly. As Luminarian staff members Chip Evanson, John Bakalar, seniors, and juniors Scott Hille, Tim Klage lean toward the microphone, they give their sales pitch to buy yearbooks. This group of students provided humorous an - nouncements for student council activities throughout the year. As senior John Feldkamp collects money for Daybreak, seniors Cami Piekarski and Susan Wade each give a donation. Area high schools participated in this fund drive sponsored by WXKE. While senior Julie Scheiman fastens his top button, junior Shawn Fowler looks over his new choir robe. The robes cost $8,000, which was raised from the cheese and sausage sale. 10 Raisin ' Money

V Crazy Outfits Pick Up Week onald Duck, a giant M M, strangely dressed bagged i r people, guys in dresses. What did they all have in common? Each was just a crazy part of Home- coming week celebration. Although the dress -up days start- ed slowly with bag day, I felt mas- querade day really picked things up. I was very impressed with formal day; it made chapel more of a special occa- sion, stated senior John Feldkamp, co - chairman for planning Homecom - ing. Besides dress -up days, one of the most successful and exciting events of the week was Anything Goes, held at Zollner Stadium, Wed. Sept. 19. School spirit shone as a record 550 students attended, each clad in class colors. Faculty and students alike were rivaled with several new events, such as jello eating, balloon stomping and pyramid building contests. Since I was involved with Any- thing Goes last year, I already knew what had to be done, and with the help of others, everything was achieved quickly and efficiently, ex- plained senior Kirsten Roberts, com- mittee head. Hard work and dedication went not only for dress -up days and Anything Goes, but also to all the decorations which were hung throughout the school by volunteers from each grade. Kleenex was placed around and through the cage, while crepe paper hung both twisted and straight. With decorations being judged Wednesday morning, each class had only a limited time period Tuesday evening to plan and do something spectacular. Students could be seen running in and out of Belmont ' s with purchase orders and decorations all evening, said junior Kolleen Macke. — Laura Abdon Sucking pepsi with all his might, sophomore Kelly Johnson gives it his all in an effort to drain the baby bottle of its contents. De spite his efforts, the sophomores were not the first to finish this portion of Anything Goes. Showing her school spirit, sophomore Valerie Tharp creates a bright impression with her red trash bag outfit. Bag day was the first dress-up day of Homecoming week. 12 Homecoming Week
