Seniors show new spirit Most seniors never have the opportunity to serve as officer on any function. Too many an of- ficer is merely the big shot who gets to run around school, getting VIP treatment. Still others believe that officers are the Hrah-rahsf' ln other words, they attend all football games, pep rallies. school productions, and band and choir concerts. Senior class president Ronnie Rhine doesnt seem to feel that wav. This year turned out to be good because we had more monei than the senior class has ever had before. He went on to say, The whole year was real good because the school spirit seemed to turn around and have a fresh new spirit. Officers were Ronnie, vice-president Kathi Gunnels, secretary Susan lforrester and treasurer Barbara Alexander. The senior officers were in charge of many proiects. The hrst proiect was a tipe of rummage sale. That is, they sold all the old things that were stored in Mrs. Dorothy Miles llighstepper SIOISIOOITI. Among the articles petldled were frosted Haltom glasses, spirit towels, and llaltom Buff hats. Though it was all second-hand material. the class made a great deal of money, According to Mrsjo Peninington, about 50 peo- ple helped to sell the items, The next fund raiser was Christmas ornaments, Mrs. Pennington stated that the man who was responsible for suggesting the ornaments made a big mistake. The ornaments were supposed to hare been peppermint candies. llowever, the pro- ject was an enormous financial success raising over 51500, This gave the class of '81 almost S1800 to work with for the prom. The officers played an intricate part in both sales. organizing homeroom pick-ups. checking in the items and money, and distributing the goods. lfinallv, the officers were partly responsible for organiying the senior program. Ronnie was responsible for props and Kathi was in charge of the programs, liarbara coordinated several meetings before school to get other seniors to get other seniors to write the material for the show.

Eight to twelve could be an appropriate title for this storyg but instead of Dolly Par- ton or Lily Tomlin playing the main role, Tammy Watts would be the star. Tammy worked in the school office with secretary Ann Gondek. Last year, it was decided that more help was needed in the office. After receiving the approval of Principal Leon Hagmann, Tammy began working dur- ing the summer. I worked in the office last year, I answered the switchboard. Since I had been trained, Mrs. Gondek asked me ifI wanted to work for her. I said yes! Tammy explained, Besides answering the switchboard, Tammy took students their telephone mes- sages, early dismissals, ran errands for teach- ers and administrators. She also took care of the bookstore, except during homeroom, when it was closed. On occasion, when Mrs. Gondek was absent for a day, Tammy would work the full eight-hour shift, instead of her usual eight-twelve. Minimum wage is what she received from the administration building. Tammy was the first VOE student to be hired in the office. I like the job very much. I like being around my school friends, I don't have to work on Saturdays, and I get the same holi- days as everyone else. It would seem like I'd be at school instead of working half a day, and missing stuff like assemblies, she explained. A
