) THE HOME C HEAR THE SPIRIT Rah! Rah! Go Emmaus! Some peo- ple may think that those words are the only way to express school spirit. Actually spirit cannot be defined as simply a cheer of encourage- ment It’s much more than that. During the 86-87 school year we, at Emmaus, showed exactly how innovative and creative we could be in expressing our enthusiasm. With the addition of male cheerleaders Dave Bowes and Greg Dill, we showed that not only girls can cheer our teams to victory. Victorious describes our teams Em- maus is known for outstanding achievements in sports, and this year was no exception. Many of our teams reached the state competition level. With more support and encouragement from the stu- dent body than ever, the teams played exceptionally well Students not only supported athletics, but also the clubs and organizations. With the added spirit for involvement, students joined clubs with a renewed frenzy. New organizations, such as the debate club, were added as a result of student re- quests for clubs of special interests. This was truly a year of new events to hopeful- ly become traditions. One such new idea was the homeroom attendance contest and pizza party. Through this competition students were encouraged to attend school more regularly, with the reward of Juniors Sherri Defram, Greg Dill. Chantelle Green wait, and Senior Missy Lee show Emmaus com- raderie before a game a pizza party for the homeroom with the best attendance record The spirit raged on with the first tailgate-pep rally preceding a football game The students gathered for picnick- ing on the parking lot in the cold weather to eat equally cold hot dogs, after which the students roared at a pep rally, urging our Hornets to WIN! Many theories were debated as to why the '87 school year was so full of Emmaus spirit. Some teachers claimed the Senior class to be the best class to come around in a long time,'' but the underclassmen fought back, saying the growth of their classes equaled the add- ed spirit. Any way you put it, the sound of Emmaus spirit was one to be remembered — 1987 Emmaus High — did you hear the spirit?

TASTE THE SOCIAL LIFE Senior Pete Bollman and junior Kory Kozak discuss what their next social move will be Socializing means different things to different people If you were asked to define social life, what would it be? To some of us, spending time at various fast food restaurants was a way to kill some time on a Friday or Saturday night. Without our cheeseburgers, peanut-butter-cup sun- daes, cokes, and endless other items, we would be at a loss. Besides, where else would we go? Emmaus teens can frequently be spot- ted at such eating establishments as Wendys, McDonalds, Friendly's, and Perkins, to name a few. We spend our time at these places just hanging out when there is nowhere else to go But if the opportunity comes up, THE place to be seen is at a party ANY party Here we can talk to friends, meet new people, and relax. However, should there be a weekend with no parties, (gasp), we find other ways to spend our time. Many of us get together with friends, and stay at home with the VCR and a few horrible movies, or if we have dollars available, the movie theatre is our destination. Here we can spend our entire allowance in one shot and veg out, unless we were on a date and have found other ways to watch the movie. Oh! We can't forget the good old school dances. The dances are a cheap way to spend a night, pick up so- meone, and even have fun! If dancing is your thing and high school dances aren’t enough, you could always go to the popular teen dance clubs in the Valley, such as Main Gate, Back Street, Airport Music Hall, or Odyessus. But if we ever reached a low point, and there was NOTHING to do, we could always resort to cruising. However, that IS a last resort and doesn’t happen too often. Although teens think there isn't a whole lot to do in the high school years, Em- maus students always manage to make their own fun! Isn’t that what it's all about?? ‘This school dance money will look nice in our bank accounts! chuckle senior Paul Grazio and junior Dave Lin Sophomore Mike Lee rubs elbows with the polyester set while spending a fun-filled night at the bowling alley 6 Opening
