'rr M' ' Y ',:,3g-w-v-- 0 o . Five seniors head class as officers Five students were chosen by their classmates to head the senior class as officers. Elected one month after school began, these officers had special responsibilties throughout the year. For instance, they chose the location, band and the food for the prom. They organized several elections which included DAR Good Citizen and the senior song, sponsored activities such as Senior Kid Day and the Senior Play, and one of the class lead- ers, usually the president, speaks at the graduation ceremony. Another duty was to decide when to order graduation announcements and publicize this date to the seniors. Heading the senior class were Ray Freeman, president: Larry Quisenberry, vice president: Barbara Wilson, secretary, Gina Taylor, treasurer, and Gina Clark, reporter. A.

Infancy conquers maturit as graduates reminisce South campus halls were invaded by overgrown kiddies on Senior Kid Day, April 1. Although seniors might have expected to do first grade level work such as drawing on the chalkboard, practicing the technique of making and hitting teachers with paper airplanes, playing basketball with the trash can and wads of paper, they were, in most cases, disappointed. Classwork and tests continued right on schedule. As can be expected, rules were made specifically for this occasion. Bent, but not broken, was the dress code, but seniors still could not attend school with bare feet, shoulders or midriffs showing. There were quite a few moving violations and the office's collection of skateboards, tricycles, and baby buggies grew as the day wore on. Any implement which squirted water was promptly confiscated. These ranged from regular dime-store water pistols to machine guns two feet in length. For the first time, contests were scheduled and prizes were awarded. Seniors Ann Riggle and Mark Bingham were presented trophies for being the best dressed girl and boy. Also receiving a trophy was Brenda Cowling for having the best decorated tricycle. Winner of the tricycle race, which took place in the front of the south cam- pus, Ricky Weaver was presented with a lollipop for his effort. Lollipops also went to Cindy Caudle and Leslie Doebbler for their ability to toss an egg without breaking it, and to Ronnie Liggett and Manuel Araujo for winning the two-legged race. Tug-of-war contests were also held with girls pitted against boys. With a frisbee and a football substituting for a baton, relay races were included in the contest events. A. Awaiting the signal to begin, seniors Clara Ferguson, Robert Riley, Joe Erwin, Donny Sapaugh with Rich Berger pushing from behind, and Lisa Howard gather at the starting line. B. Receiving encouragement from their coach, Shi Shi Ahmadi, Carolyn Cormier, Lori Babi- neux, Vickie Shults and Tamara Watlington pull during the tug-of-war to defeat their oppo- nents. C. Participating in Senior Kid Day activities, Ann Riggle gets involved in the egg throw- ing contest. She throws . . . she catches . . . oops! D. Randy Bryant displays his skill with a yo-yo as Steve Ray dresses as his version of a kid. E. Class officers Larry Quisenberry and Gina Taylor present trophies to the best dressed boy and girl, Mark Bingham and Ann Riggle. F. With one last effort, Joyce High speeds toward the finish line. G. Cindy Withrow crowds her doll with books and her purse, while Phyllis Matula and Angela Shultz pause before returning to class. H. Pausing in the mall, Randy Kelley exhibits his technique with ka-knockers. l l PAGE 236 ! SENIORS 'N , 45'
