Go Big Blue As a rule the most exciting and hectic week of the school year is the one of football homecoming-this year was no exception. On Monday students showed their ‘‘overall” spir- it-flashes of blue, red. white, green, and even orange caught the eye between classes. Tues- day was decreed to be jersey day, and every- one was to wear his or her favorite jersey. The response to this was fantastic, as even the teachers got into the act ... Ero incognito. Reggie Hart displays his spirit in a rather un- usual manner. Freshmen Dale Koon and Pat Guess pa- rade blue white on Jersey Day. Vicki Sanders lends Coach Brunner her bonnet for Hat Day.

Since our talent is music and not car- pentry, we quickly came to the conclusion that we couldn’t build the trophies we need- ed. Luckily for us. however, the businesses of Marion graciously offered their support by donating them. Despite the grueling ordeal that had to be gone through, the outcome made everything worthwhile. People from area counties lined the streets of Marion, awed by the talent of the bands. That same night Rocket Stadium was filled with vivid colors, streamers, signs, and screaming fans cheering on their favorite band. Needless to say. the 1980 First Annu- al Crittenden County Marching Invita- tional Contest was a true success!! COMPETITION RESULTS Best Auxiliary Best Field Commander . . .... Grayson Co.

Homecoming week continued Wednesday with sunglasses and tag day; stu- dents wore their “shades and tags declaring support for the football team. On Thursday everybody was decked out from head to toe with zany hats and socks. Spirit week finally reached its climax with blue and white day on Friday. It was worth the effort, though-the Rockets walked over Calloway County 29-6. Jeff Belt, Thomas Hodge, Buckwheat Hunt, Aaron Brown, Gerald Cullison, Kim Boyd, Shelley Clark, Pam Jennings, and Pam Roberts make a final presenta- tion of Senior spirit. Right feet forward for spirit. Opening 13
