Barons Show 1 Spirit Everyone likes to get out of class, and pep sessions did just that. They were held to recognize students involved in fall, winter, and spring sports. Extra ses- sions were held to encourage the foot- ball team as they advanced to state. Af- ter clinching the title, an all-day celebration was held, complete with music, dancing, and refreshments. At the winter sports pep session, a “battle of the sexes” took place. Five members of the girls basketball team and five male faculty members had a free-throw contest, with the girls win- ning. To get the students fired up and to give the guys extra support, a pep session was held before the sectional final. The cheerleaders performed a game-show skit, and a hot dog eating contest was held between the four grades and faculty, with the sopho- mores being victorious. Just as pep sessions raised school spirit, so did dress-up days. For “Red, White, Black beat Columbia City’’ day, those with the ten best outfits won gift certificates to Pizza Hut. Basketball sec- tional brought two more days. One was Hawaiian shirt day, and the other was ugly tie day. Most people wore the ug- liest ties and brightest Hawaiian shirts they would find. Even though these days were not very popular with all of the students, those who did dress up showed a lot of school spirit. man, Jim Wilson. wert —— Classes showed their spirit by decorating the walls of the commons during sectional week.

One disadvantage of getting to school late is the distance you have to park from the school, as these students found out. Getting ready to leave school, Rex Walker stops long enough to have his picture taken. Rex was one of many who rode motorcycles to school. Parking lot supervisor Max Shumaker stops to be photographed. Part of Max’s job was to watch for people leaving school unexcused. Some students treasure their vehicle so much that they park it far out in the last row and diago- nally, as Mark Mitchell does with his Jeep Rene- gade. 20 TRANSPORTATION
