The assembly started a week long drive for sales. To begin the assembly, Mr. Robin Rainer, the representative for Jos-ten's American Yearbook Company, showed a film. Then the Journalism class took over. A skit from Saturday Night Live and then a street interview ended the assembly. Doreen Freer was the name drawn for the free I'm Impressed tee-shirt. This was the first year this has been done. Sales for the next day were high, due partially to the assembly. Right: The Journalism Class in theii I'm Impressed tee-shirts. You'll be impressed!

During one of its meetings, the QB Club reviewed this for a project. They then appointed a steering committee made up of school, town, and QB Club members. The town supplied $40,000 for the field, sprinkling system, lights, and bleachers. The first of February saw the destruction of the old bleachers. In May the field was planted and in late July, the seats and lights were installed. The sparkling new stadium will seat 1,400 Bulldog fans. The Quarterback Club is now anticipating its next project: putting in a dressing room and new seats on the visitor's side. 14 SOU IP’S Lunch seems to be everyone's favorite subject. Each day the lunchroom ladies battle against time to give students a hot lunch. The women who work so diligently at the high school are: Geraldine Brown, Jessie Dorriety, Edith Smith, Melba Sizemore, Leona Enfinger, and Mella En-finger. Hard at work at the elementary school are: Margie Crawford, Della Ree, Eula Bradley, Gertrude Butler, and Mary Helms. Thanks are extended to these fine women.

At G.C.H.S. the whole week is special. Bulldogs are King day, Fifty's day, Purple and Gold day, and the parade on Friday are all treats during Homecoming week. This year on Thursday night before the game, there was a pep rally behind the gym. This livened up the students and made Friday just a bit more special. 26 The parade on Friday started at the elementary school, went through town and ended at the square with a pep rally. 27 Marcia Atwell sponsored by Freddie Strickland Susan Loftin sponsored by Danny Bailey Tonja Wesson sponsored by Mike Kor negay Tammy Roberts escorted by Rob Byrd Sheila )udah escorted by Lee McArdle Amy Fondren escorted by David Alber son The Homecoming Court 1977-G.C.H.S.
