nt ae 4 Ota Is that school spirit or what? Although they look like candidates for class clown, Debbie Niles and Stephen Riley seem thrilled as they lead the school in pep. Surrounded by the cruelty of school books, Jarrett Dodd and Katherine Mayo pretend to work hard and keep a smile on their face at the same time. Being one of the “most” is not some- thing that everyone strives for, but those who are the “most” deserve recognition. Some of these awards are really honors while others are slight ly embarrassing, but that’s the idea. There are nine different awards given ranging from the most studious to the class clowns of each sex. This year the senior class picked Jarett Dodd and Katherine Mayo because they get the best grades and they “seem” to work the hard- est. The most studious boy was a tough race because there are very few boys that spend much time at the books. The win- ners of the most school-spirited contest were cheerleader Debbie Niles and our president Stephen Riley. These two can always be seen wearing some blue and white or cheering at some sports event. The two people that were thought to be the most likely to succeed were Rick Sorenson and Pam Barton because they have that extra determination to get things done and done well. They may have to succeed because both of them have expensive tastes. Those who have the best taste are, of course, Darryl Early and Lisa Harris. These two seem never to wear the same thing twice. One of the most heralded honors is being known as the most athletic and that’s how this senior class will remember Mary Beth Gayle and Gary Thomas. Mary Beth and Gary both have earned Varsity letters in cross coun- try, indoor track, and outdoor track. The people who can make us laugh in the face of a test or something equally dire are John Gunter and Mary Fringer, our class clowns. The last three categories are for the school’s best looking men and women. Laura Brooks and Tom Lewis were voted : most popular, while Jimmy Watts and Julie Miles were seen as heartbreakers by their anonymous admirers. The honor that is the most special to the winners is the cutest couple award which was won by Gray Wiley and Anna Edwards who have been together for who knows how long. Hopefully, winners will remember their awards, although some may try to forget.

They tell us that these two are the most likely to succeed but it looks at though they have already met success. Leaning on their Porsche and counting their money, Rick Sorenson and Pam Barton laugh in the face of poverty. Straining to hold him up, Mary Beth Gayle smiles as Gary Thomas winces at the smell of those awful shoes. These two proved to be the most athletic stu- dents at our school, running track or cross country in all three seasons. aes, iat oi This year’s class clowns, John Gunter and Mary Fringer, rev up the laughter as they rev up the motorcycle.

To start the night off with a friendly gesture, senior cheerleaders and senior football Poe from both teams greet each other on the field before the game. A new pet for Coach Peters. Celebrating pioneer week, Coach Peters took a pumpkin for a walk sym- bolizing how the pioneers would be dragged around at the game. 30 Pioneer Week Charged up for the Heritage game, the topper fans ive support to the football the band plays fight songs to heat up the energy. The real thing, Debra Ferguson and Lewis Simo- poulos resemble the Heritage pioneers so closely, can we be sure that they are really from Glass? Gathering Momentum To gather momentum for the big game with Heritage, we celebrated our spirit for five days. It all started with an assembly announcing that our school had been voted “One of America’s Finest.” This was on Monday and Tuesday came “Dress to Impress” day where students showed their spirit and dedication by clothing themselves in their finest. Wednesday fol- lowed with a new idea called “Spirit But- ton Day” where the students flashed their favorite buttons on their favorite jean jackets. Thursday brought the third annu- al “Pioneer Day,” (alias “Tacky Day”). On this day, we celebrate our love for those country bumpkins across town who refer to themselves as pioneers. In order to show them our admiration, we dressed up team at the bonfire, as like modern pioneers: in the worst possi- ble rags we could find. Of course, on Fri- day we all came in our blue and white clothes acknowledging an old stand-by for the SCA: “Blue and White Day.” When the school celebration was over and Friday night was upon us, we all man- aged to come up with fifty cents to buy a pom-pom. Even before the game people were starting the night off right by piggin’ out on a spaghetti dinner provided by the Key Club. After the dinner was over and everybody had taken their seat, the foot- ball team started their Friday night trek that ended in a 7-6 win over Heritage. The spirit plus all the weekly events helped us keep the jug at home. aks SN Se SIND od Se AEC CN =
