Rangers De-Claw the Fridley Tigers Spirits soared high among FLHS Rangers dur- ing the lively 1970 Homecoming week. Colorful posters and buttons crying the slogan “De-Claw the Tiger Paw” filled the halls while anxious stu- dents readied themselves for the numerous Home- coming events to come. A long-lost activity was revived as organizations displayed their creativity with floats they had deco- rated for the parade. The pizza party in White Bear Lake gave parade watchers an opportunity to fill up before the street dance held behind the school. Each organization showed their hilarious inter- pretation of the Homecoming slogan during the annual skit night. Setting out in search of the mighty claw of the Tiger paw, the Spanish Club presented their award-winning performance. Fo' lowing the skits, Rangers took turns battering ar old car that was painted in stripes to match Fridley Tiger. Bleachers were filled with screaming fans for ti game Friday night. The half-time show included a performance of the FLHS Marching Band. Al- though it appeared that the Rangers suffered a upset, the final score was 1-0 as a result of a forfr by Fridley. Maroon and gold streamers decorated the Fores Lake Elementary All-Purpose Room for thedanc after the game.

FLHS Falls into Autumn Routine Throngs of summer-weary students blocked the first floor hall on August 31. Amid the frustration of finding rooms according to the numbers on the pink schedule cards prepared by computer, report- ing broken lockers to Mr. Rand’s office and filling out a myriad of forms, students found time to ex- change exciting rehaps of their summer vacations. Some Rangers found it hard to get back into the routine of crowded buses, parking lot puddles and hours of limited talking and movement. Flundreds of loyal fans attended the first football game on September 4, and once again cheered the Rangers on to victory. Another event of the fall season was the cheer- leaders’ sock hop on September 18. Cheerleaders and other students as well danced to the lively beat of the “Cover-Up.” Fall 15
