Some seniors criticized the exces- sive damage to the property of other classes, while others re- membered the lack of faculty enthusiasm over the years. What most seniors don ' t re- member are the Field Day firsts that came with the Class of 1986. These included winning 3 floorshows, 4 shuttle relays, 4 class songs and losing the girls Tug-o-War all 4 years. And whether good or bad, the ' 86 Seniors did it in style. Doctors, firemen, baseball players, and matadors! What do all these occupations have in common? They were the Field Day themes of the Class of 1986. And along with these Field Days came lots of memories which the Senior Class will never forget. Being involved with Field Day was so much fun. I met so many people because of it, asserted Jon Teachman. Paul Danielson recalled, This unique event always brought our class together and that ' s what Field Day is all about. But there are some memories that seniors would like to forget. Our Freshman march was bad and our Senior march was a disaster! laughed In anticipation, the eager sophomore class prepared to chant its winning cheer en route to an 81-61 romp over the Class of 87. phnto by Judy Mace . 100 SENIORS

s enioritis: An Inevitable Disease by Heather Burch It ' s early spring and the sun is shining brightly on the thawing earth. The green blades of grass peek through the snow revealing the last signs of winter. As you ' re gazing out the window during third hour Physics class , you get a sudden urge to get out of school — an impulse to escape the inner confines of high school. Not for a long time, just long enough to eat lunch in the park or maybe catch a short snooze in the courtyard. If you have ever experienced any of these feelings, then you can consider yourself a victim of the contagious Senioritis! Some seniors catch it early in the year, some not until June, but for the majority it becomes more contagious with the change of the semesters in January. All applica- tions are in, finals are finished, and only nine weeks until the long awaited Spring Break! What exactly is Senioritis? The uncontrollable desire to forget my monotonous school- work and escape to Birmingham to do a little shopping, expressed Maureen Dunn. Others feel that it ' s their need to be free and they expose their syndromes of lazi- ness, procrastination, a nd irre- sponsibility. In whatever way they express their Senioritis, seniors will agree that June 15, 1986 is never close enough.
