HUMPTY DUMPTY, JACK SPRAT, BYE BABY BUNTING, and TOM, TOM THE PIPER’S SON were among the many Mother Goose characters represented in this year's Homecom- ing theme Nursery Rhymes. ” Festiv- ities included window signs, pickets, locker signs, and, for the first time, a mini-parade. Mini-floats were made with rid- ing mowers, shopping carts, and wagons and were constructed in the garages of students. First place in the mini-float contest was awarded to the Junior class and the locker sign win- ner was Mike Freed. The Senior class was awarded a cash prize for the best window sign; unfortunately it was not enough to pay for Sallaska’s broken window. The Sophomores took second place and the Juniors, third. Even though rain washed out the traditional bon-fire and almost caused window signs to be painted on the in- side, Homecoming week was an eventful one--highlighted when the

Pep rallies were a routine part of the afternoons when football and bas- ketball games were scheduled for the evening. Towards the end of the bas- ketball season Jacket spirit was boost- ed with the help of the-, coaches in the most inspired rally of the year. Wednesday afternoons were a bit different for many weeks in the 3rd nine weeks. Class schedules were re- arranged to allow students to be dis- missed at 3:00 pm. These after- noons teachers became students as they were taught how to use the Metric System. Afternoons were a learning ex- perience for students--until 4—when everyone left and went their own way. But no one's day was over. r (1) Because of a bus breakdown, band members spend a lazy hour entertain- ing themselves until another bus ar- rives to take them back to Fairview. (2) Denise Walton whips out a produc- tion lesson in Typing II. (3) crochet- ing a bedspread takes every spare moment for Cindy Clinesmith, who even utilizes a few extra minutes in her Chemistry class. (4) Advancing step by step to the roar of the crowd, cheerleaders Connie Hubble, Terry Weber, and Pam Lastinger finally succeed in creaming Buddy Smith, Pat Davis, and Steve Zahorsky. (5) A familiar sight during the day is Diane Wahl, who conducted the stu- dent council spirit ribbon sales throughout the year along with Robin Wilson. % IV Student Life 13

Yellow jackets and the Okeene Whip- pets stmggled to a 0-0 tie. Carrie Kooken, a new student from New Mexico, remarked, Half time was different from anything I had ever seen, and I especially liked Audrey Green's fire twirling.
