Aggravations are taken out on the constant malfunctioning coke machines by juniors Stephen Cooke and Chris Douglas. Taking a break after lunch, sophomores Kay Caldwell and Cheryl Byrd baffle their minds without a solution book. MPEG Tobacco spit, phone ringing annoying Ever had one of those days when everything goes wrong? Have you ever had one of those days when everything goes wrong? When you're walking down the hall late to class and people are walking slow, holding up traffic really aggravates me, Candie Murphy, sophomore, said. A Many people have their own pet peeves and habits of others are often an- noying. Such an irritation is, all the clubs trying to see stuff and get your money, Paul Jones, senior, said. People vary in attitudes and annoyances. Several people are annoyed by only minor subjects - when the telephone ringing stops you from what you're doing, Prin- cipal Tommy Hays said. Others, though, were irritated by more major things. When a person asks me to do something and then they do something with someone DAILY AGGRAVATIONS if Y: :2-, , ? ,,,L k else instead. It gets on my nerves, sophomore Jeana Muncy said. Custodians have to deal with irritations each day. The tobacco spit in the fountains and on the floor is aggravating and unpleasant to clean up, Ms. Jane Brandt, custodian, said. This situation could also be considered from a different viewpoint. Students not being able to dip snuff or chew tobacco at school is not fair, senior D. D. Lemaster commented. When you are already running late for a pep rally and you realize you don't have but half of your uniform on, was an ag- gravating situation for cheerleader Melanie Nowell, senior. Everyone had his or her own opinion of an aggravation. Silly arguments and fights among peo- ple, especially when caused by rumors or gossip, Evelyn Polland, senior, said, when expressing her feelings about an annoying situation. Students are aggravated from guys ig- noring you, Deanna Thornburg, senior, replied, to going up to Watkins' office, David Carter, junior said. A more common irritation was when you're in the middle of something and have to stop for the devotional or the morning an- nouncements, junior Ceclia Couch replied. From a coach's viewpoint, there was a summary of a daily aggravation. Having all those people who think they know what they're talking about trying to tell all of us that do, Coach Arthur Tribble saidl

With a banner sold by the Senior Executive Committee, senior James Zimmer gets ready for the Richland pep rally. Always a surprise, the half-time, engineered by band director Dee Tucker, at the Richland game featured a circus. Friday the 13th unlucky Cheerleaders request pep rally for Reb game be moved to gym The crowd anxiously awaited the opening kick-off of the game between Haltom and Richland. The fact that it was Friday the 13th, Haltom was on the Hawayl' side of the stadium, and Richland had won the game for the last five years ominously loomed in the back of the minds of both players and spec- tators alike. Yet, as an orange moon hung in the sky above the field, the Buffs' hopes of winning shone brightly in the stands below. Unfor- tunately the Buffs lost the game, 21-0. Earlier in the week, excitement and ten- sion rang through the halls as the anticipa- tion grew. Colorful posters of varied sizes ex- pressed the students' feelings toward the event. Dress-up days also increased the spirit. Students on Monday wore sneakers to sneak past the Rebs, Hawaiian shirts on Tuesday to surf over the Rebs and Wednesday cowboy hats and boots to kick the Rebs out of Buff country. Thursday, hats and ties revealed that the Buffs were going to tie up the Rebs and on Friday the traditional orange and black was worn. The community pep rally took place in the W. G. Thomas Jr. Coliseum the Thurs- day before the game. The pep rally was like a school pep rally RICHLAND WEEK except a lot more went on. The cheerleaders were exhausted from the whole event because they were involved in every activity there, Mrs. Bettye Wright, cheerleader sponsor, remarked. The school pep rally was in the gym, although previous ones were in the auditorium. We've always had our Richland pep rallies in the gym and seating has never been a problem before, so l didn't see any problem this year. Also if students go to any pep rallies, they will go to the Richland pep rally even more so than homecoming, Mr. Tommy Hays, principal, added. Everyone gets so excited and involved when the pep rally is held in the gym, senior Theresa Hill said. It's the only time we have school unity, Felisia Johnson said. Unlike last year there was no damage done to either Haltom or Richland High Schools, according to Mr. Hays and Mr. Joe Hallford, Richland's assistant principal. Nevertheless, Mrs. Judy Griggers reported that a package was delivered to the door of the typing hall. It consisted of cow manure with a note attached which read, To the Buffaloes, from Johnny Reb.
