Inflation shrinks Turnabout With tight schedules and even tighter budgets, Turnabout was not as popular as it once was. Because of this, many juniors and seniors just planned on attending the prom instead. “I ' m going to prom so why go to Turnabout? said Jeff Plant. He said going to both dances was just too expensive. Others, however, ignored the finan- cial costs, to capitalize on the social dividends. I like Turnabout. It gives everyone a chance to dress up and go in style. Also, I like the idea of asking the guy because guys are shy about dances, commented Connie Wheeler. The attendance should have been higher. If everyone would attend, then there would be more fun,” said Mrs. Julie Westerholf, dance sponsor. In the traditional ceremony, Becky Watson was crowned queen, Becky’s courts included Sandy Baacke, Amber Blouin, Nancy Burnhardt and Janet Bowyer. I was very proud of my Becky for being nominated, for when she had won, words could not be expressed. So I kissed her!” said Bob Blouin. The band was liked but had one dis- appointing factor. Acro-Batt” did not play the theme song. ‘‘Stairway to Heaven” during the crowning. Kathy Wachowiak said, I loved it! I thought they were a real great band. Larry Hughbanks remarked, “It was okay, if they would have played more slow music.” Jim Hudspeth added, It was pretty good, but it could have been better.” The kids were dressed beautifully and acted accordingly. Very well behaved. I wouldn’t mind chaperon- ing again,” said Mrs. Dawn Patchin. Sophomore Lisa Dayberry and date Kent Hadden enter into the room of excitement. 22 — Turnabout

( 6 Guinea 5 5 pigs test Gift Mill Fund raising began with a new all- school sales program, with every student acting as a guinea pig. All carried cata- logs and order forms to prospective cus- tomers and left them over night. The cus- tomers would then look them over and order what they wanted. The “guinea pig (student) picked it up the next day. The idea behind this was to earn enough money so classes, clubs, and organizations would not have to have a lot of little fund raisers. Many students expressed definite opinions on the success of the Gift Mill project. “I think it’s stupid, said Jayme Schreiber, My Gift Mill things sat in my locker and rotted,” Richard Solberg said. “I think it’s stupid. Why can’t we sell M Ms instead?” asked Cindy Pointer. There were some problems,” explained Mr. Fetty. “Having brothers and sisters and everyone in the neighbor- hood selling the same thing at the same time, did cause some problems. According to Mr. Fetty, the school will try the same plan of selling in future years. However there will be some changes, for one, only the classes that need the money will participate. The profits will be divided between them. Having the Gift Mill sales didn’t partic- ularly mean there were not any other fund raising activities. Miss Linda Beard had a few car washes for the purchase of uniforms and registration fees for the swing choir to enter contests. The ath- letic boosters had raffles at all the home games and other activities to raise money for uniforms and equipment for our ath- letes. The band boosters also helped the band with raising money for uniforms and instruments. The sophomore class had its annual magazine sale, to raise money for prom. The magazines and records were sold for two weeks. Prizes were awarded to top sellers. Mr. Norman Backus, magazine salesman, explains to the sophomore class how to win prizes selling magazines. The sophomore class listens intently while Norman Backus tells how to fill out a maga- zine or record order form. 24 — Money Makers
