Variet Sho ' l -d k senior! charxjibesollcrgfunuc This year's variety show may have had the traditional U12 years of school skit, but it was also highlighted by three new skits. The first of these was the Tex-Anns version of what the seniors will be doing as soon as they have their diploma in hand - head for the coast. The skit began with the girls sitting quietly, dressed in their caps and gowns, patiently listening to the endless speeches usually given at graduation. All of a sudden they jumped up, stripped to proper beach attire, and went in to a dance routine. This included surfing hits like Surf City and Surfin' U.S.A. Speaking of stripping, that's exactly what Laura Barbarena and Sharon Haley did in the following skit. Itls one of those things that you had to be there to understand. The third skit was titled Tex-Mans , not to be confused with Tex-Anns. Fifteen of Crockett's most distinguished young men dress- ed in drill team costumes strutted into the gym and proceeded to do a 'tripple' routine to the song Jungle Love. Then just when it seemed safe, they all bent over to reveal Seniors 1985 inscribed across their posteriors. The crowd cheered in laughter and the guys began to thrash dance to the song Shout from the film 3 Animal House. The crowd roared its approval while the administration looked on. We worked long and hard to get it fthe skitj perfect. The day before the show, we were all pretty restless because we had been rehearsing for six days and we were ready to do it, recalled senior Jeff Davis. by James Erben right: Seniors Kevin Fowler, Kevin Ard, B.J.
