Student Council Members Andy Martin and Klm Rich march holding the banner preceeding the float Battle of Flowers Climaxes Fiesta The bands and the bright colored floats line up and await their turn to march down Broadway at the Battle of Flowers Parade. Meanwhile, crowds sit anxiously hoping to catch a glimpse of someone they know or to see the queen's grand costume arrayed with brilliant jewels. Fiesta brought people together and the Battle of Flowers Parade was no exception. People started lining up along the parade route up to two hours before the parade actually began. Despite the humidity, the bands and people on floats flashed bright smiles to all who came to watch. The parade provided the merriment that makes Fiesta worthwhile, and when all was over, people were already looking forward to next year's Fiesta. Margie Harris walks beside the float dressed in her French outfit. 42 Student Life

Q 4 Kenny Albrecht and Jimmy Chu rented a limousine to escort them and their dates to the Prom. Seniors gear up for graduation it was May, and the reality of graduation bore down on us as we ticked off the traditional senior activities one after the other. On May 2, we dressed in our finest and danced the night away as we listened to the music of Passage at the Prom. Talent Show was our last chance to show off our talents and impress our friends. On the morning of graduation, we would always remember our senior breakfast and the unforgettable senior skit. Finally, the flurry of picking up caps and gowns made us realize that graduation was near and soon it would be time to take our diplomas and go our separate ways. Country and western music pleases the kickers in the crowd at the Talent Show. 44 Student Life s at .J rM--'ts.,, , if
