RO YALTY! Formal dances this year were different, but still exciting and fun. As a break in tradition, freshmen were allowed to attend the dances. This game them a sense of responsibility, and made them feel like a part of high school. In past years, because of the separate schools, the freshmen were not allowed to participate in such dances. The addition of people was an addition of fun and variety. Homecoming 87 was a record setting dance; over 300 people attended. The win against Spring Lake left everyone ready to party! Phil Tower and Ski Anderson from WLAV helped the crowd get into the homecoming excitement. Students said it was a very casual, fun, and a well handled dance. It was a total success for student council; they turned a $675 profit — quite an accomplishment. Prom 88 was a very elegant affair held at J.R.’s Roller Castle. With “A Night in Paris” as the theme, all decorations were done with a French twist, the small model of the Eiffel Tower being the main attraction. Prom 88 had a beautiful and fun feeling about it. Students attend- ing said it will become a memory to last forever. After the dance, the annual post-prom “Casino Night was held at the Montcalm County Armory. Many games were played and many prizes were given away. Laura Pentecost was a big winner coming away with a television. Other winners were Jason Nichols, Dave Gowens and many others. It was a perfect ending to a perfect night! 8—Homecoming Prom

A Class Act First day frenzy f Y awn.) Last year it seemed so easy. But now v A that combination keeps rearranging itself in my head. And was it right left right or left right left? Twelve hundred kids in this school and it seems like they’re all in front of my locker. What a Monday; I mean Wednesday. What a day! Now I’ve got the chance to see all my old friends. Speaking of seeing old faces — just when you thought you’d escaped — the middle school teachers return. Walking briskly through the halls I thought the bell rang three minutes 56, 57, 58 seconds ago. I just step into the room, four minutes. Standing there in anticipation of “Tardy” my ears hear nothing. No bell.. No “tardy”. Checking the clock I proceed to my seat thinking, “Hey, I’m not gonna argue.” Three more run-ins with the same situation and it hits me. Five minute-between-class-jobs. I was sitting in class hearing the 1, 2, 3, fourth reading of the rules and went to grab my pencil to make a note. It was gone! I panicked then collected myself. My pencil was gone but I was O.K. I had my Greenville High School folder. On my way to fifth hour it seemed like those 1,200 kids that were in front of my locker were all going the opposite way I wanted to. I’d like to know how it is managed that a journey from one end of the school to the other is necessary between classes. Bumper-car-like freshmen toss from corner to senior to wall to junior. Entering what seemed like the right room 1 stopped motionless at the door. One-what? ooops. I raised my eyebrows, stood on my tiptoes, and scanned the room as though looking for a friend. I shrugged and walked out. How many more days? Student Life—7
