Practically Every Day! WW In April of 1980, Omega held an Almost Anything Goes open for all clubs to participate. The Senior Call of '80 won with the Junior Girls and Junior Class close behind in points. In November, Astra held a Mr. Leggs contest for which 20 guys were nominated. By popular demand, Brandon Mendoza was voted as having the cutest legs. Fletcher was the host of College Night when about 150 college representatives were available to talk with students and their parents. Service clubs were asked to assist. The week before Homecoming has practically the biggest events for school clubs that happen all year. During this week, the long preparations of building a float take place. Up to S300 and 50 hours of work can be credited to those who went Hall out! The Omega Service club triumphed over the other floats with their Giant Wave.

AS STRANGE AS n C. 5 When the halls are filled with strange looking people, dressed in very, very odd attire, it can only mean one thing: it must be Weirdo Wolfson Day. Weirdo Wolfson Day started in 1969 as an idea to promote school spirit. Not only did it serve its initial purpose, but Weirdo Wolfson Day grew into o tradi- tion. To celebrate this tradition, students dressed up in the oddest and strangest outfits they could think of. Punks, Urban Cowboys, Marine and Navy men, Playboy bun- nies and M8.M boxes were some of the more popular costumes. To accent their clothes, some students wore feathers, balloons, oversized glasses and frizzy hair. Others actually went to the extreme of dying their hair green. Although Weirdo Wolfson Day is mainly for the stu- dents, teachers also got into the act of dressing up. At the end of the day, during a pep rally, winners for the best costume were picked. Both Bruce Boutwell and Alan Dunavent won free tickets to that night's football game for wearing the weirdest outfits of the day. filfHIGHLlGHTS
