f st f fi r I i ' S, 3 ,rf .fy kv Serious or fun? Assemblies keep us guessing We never knew what awaited us when we were called into the auditorium for an assembly. Although we thought that some of the assemblies were boring, some of them turned out to be really interesting. Most of the time, an assembly provid- ed information about certain re- quirements we had to fill. The yearbook assembly informed us how much the yearbook would cost and made us roll with laughter as we watched a pie being thrown in a student's face. Student council held assemblies to elect new officers and to give us a look at the candidates. The Korean assembly we attended provided a chance to get a taste of another culture. Seniors were always going to the auditorium: whether it was for graduation information or receiving cap and gowns. Anxious juniors scurried to the junior assembly to order their senior rings. Underclassmen voted for cheer leaders and yell leaders after watching hopefuls compete against each other in the auditorium. It didn't matter to us if an assembly was boring or interesting. We were all just happy to get a chance to get away from that Math or English class. 28 Student Life .LS Seniors Penni Mecham and Jan Kruse get a pie thrown in their faces by Mr. McBee because of thej display of P.D.A. i Qi l is l l l Qgfi'Jif.sr fa W - j L.

Cheryl Baker and her date enjoy a slow dance at the Blue and White ball. Dances Highlight Season Couples sway to the music provid- ed by Kustoms as the traditional Blue and White Ball climaxes the end of football season. Long dresses, tuxes, and colorful corsages made the night special. Many couples went out to eat before the dance at such favorite places as San Francisco Steak House, Time Machine or Boston Sea Party. The music was mostly country and western, and couples felt as comfortable doing the Cotton Eyed Joe as the traditional slow dance. Special awards were given at the Blue and White Ball. Janet Jaeckle was named Outstanding Flag. Outstanding Brahmadora was Cam- mi Uptmore. Cammi was also named Football Sweetheart. John Hendrix captured the title of Mr. Football. Outstanding Brigade member was Darlene Arellano. Tammy Broome was named Outstanding Pep Squad Lassie while Pam Hall was named Outstanding Bairn.
