K iawNu27,,,,?',5,,Ll MAX 'Am mV' For the class of '77, their Junior year will be remembered as one of their best. Home Coming, the first big event of the year, brought the Juniors a first place in the car competition, where a yellow TR-6 was decorated as a bumble bee. Their major effort to raise money was the very successful execution of the Ping-Pong-a Thon. The 24 straight hours of pinging and ponging included a doubles and singles tournament, and games with as many as seven balls going at the same time. The Tiresome Effort was not without reward. The project brought in over 880000. One of the most memorable activities of the year had to be Sports-a-Rama. With class spirit and pride at stake, this proved to be some of the toughest and most exciting competition of the year. Even though the Juniors were only able to slip past the Freshmen for third place, their spirit never let down for a second. They were not able to brood for long over their showing when the Junior Varsity basketball team tied for the league championship. Although plagued with injuries, they finished the season with a record of 20 wins and 5 losses. The last event, and probably the highlight of the Junior year, was Junior Prom. The dance, held at Cross Roads lVlall, attracted couples dressed in brightly colored tuxes. and elegant evening gowns. 225 i
