fans A Whole Ibuin Cant Be Wrong! Fans—they are a unique breed of man. Like most other people, they put their pants on one leg at a time and use a knife, fork, and spoon to eat with, but then the comparison stops. A true fan goes to coffee the morning after a tough game, and talks to anyone who will listen about that great defensive stand or that close call in the endzone or the win- ning touchdown. A fan may be almost anyone. He may be a parent, who not only travels to all the games to towns like Laverne and Elk City, but they also wash socks and pants everyday after practice and mend the holes in war-weary game jerseys. When Fri- day night arrives and the players romp onto Eubanks Field, a roar fills the aii with enthusiam. No, it isn't Owens Field in Norman or Lewis Field in Stillwater, but it is just as meaningful to those who are parti- cipating. If a first down is barely missed or a ball is fumbled, a Jacket fan holds his head high in anticipation of better things to come. When there is a choice of a blue or orange pantsuit or shirt—a fan chooses orange- Just the thing to wear when we go to the state play- offs. Yes, a fan is unique. He could be a local merchant or famer or doctor. Whoever a Yellow jacket fan is, he is a fan—the rare type of in- dividual who takes the good and the bad, and makes it all seem like a victory. AS FOOTBALL SEASON rolls around, sports devotees get out their coats, blankets and whatever else will keep them warm and head for the nearby stadium. From warm weather at the first games to nearly 10° at Laverne for the last game, yelling kept all warm. IF LOOKS of concern would help any, the team would be unbeatable with the help of Chuck Neu- feld, Kyle Williams and John Curtis. Student Life

November At Last! GWTW Television's grand finale came in the every-busy month of November. After 41 years of popularity Gone With the Wind was premiered on nationwide TV. Prime time was also allocated to the Bicentennial presi- dential election with Jimmy Carter winning over ex-President Gerald Ford. Cold weather and the first snow of the season caused a cancellation of the annual Fly-in. Frosty temper- atures also brought about local and nationwide concern of the Swine Flu. Many vaccinations were given with most going to those persons over 18. Disappointing news came for everyone with the death of Smokey the Bear. This longtime hero of forest fire prevention will not be forgotten in the hearts of many. Communist Chinese Leader Mao also died. Through this busy month educat- ion was honored with a National Ed- ucational Week. Activities included the honoring of retiring fifth grade teacher Miss Nina Stewart with a Nina Stewart Day. One day of the week proved to be a shock for every- one. Parents were in school-learning! The happy day for students came when parents substituted for their child in the different classes. They learned how their child made it through the day. They also discovered their hardships such as only three minutes between classes and every- one knows what problems that causes (where's the bathroom!), headaches and the joy of 4:00. National Honor Society got their share of dirty hands when they took on the task of cleaning and reorgan- izing the trophy cases. Along with everything else Seniors were worried. How do I look? and How many pictures do I want?. Senior pictures were only one of the questionable joys of being a Senior. One of the other fun times of the elder class was presenting Our Hearts Were Young and Gay . In this play Jane Strubhart's dream of acting was smashed; but she and her best friend Tammy Gooch had a great time and were found in many embarrassing and funny situations on their trip abroad. Meeting two young men aboard the ship, Mike Freed and Greg Schmidt, brought their greatest hopes to reality. It may have been a busy month, but everyone found time to eat turkey and dressing. The four days of vacat- ion brought joy to many. November was a month of Thanksgiving. I GRADE teacher is presented with nition by Linda on Student life 17
