( 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

The only football game of the year brought plenty of: Jammed fingers bruised bodies and broken nails Practice for powderpuff went on for several weeks for both the seniors and the juniors. Recruiting managers, team members and coaches was only part of the preparation. Learning the plays, choosing uniforms and cheer- leaders was also part of the fun. Mr. Brindley, who was a senior class sponsor, was the coach for the junior class. Mr. Brindley, in all fair- ness, had the right to manage the jun- iors but many seniors felt otherwise. “We felt that Mr. Brindley did the senior class injustice by not being our coach and yet he sponsors our class. He wouldn’t be our coach because he said ‘he didn ' t want to be on a losing team. ' We showed him, because actu- ally we didn’t work that hard, and his juniors worked their tails off,” said Quarterback Mary Anderson, receives the snap to start the play. The seniors rallied late to tie the game, 7-7. Tammy Collins. Mr. Metcalf was the manager for the senior class. Mr. Rajchel even stopped by and gave Mr. Metcalf some ideas on the plays to be used. Paul Erickson, Scott Parks, Tim Crow- ley and Glen Caulk helped coach the girls. There were 25 juniors on the team even though not all of them played. They said they planned on winning at all costs. Nearly every guy and girl was involved even if cheering their team on to victory was the only thing they did. Everyday for 2 Vi weeks Mr. Brindley made the girls practice, try- ing to make a winning team. The first game was cancelled, however, on account of rain. Disap- pointment was strong. Many students wanted to play rain or shine. The rain date, two days later, was sunny but cold. The game was played as stu- dents froze fingers and fannys while With the seniors in close pursuit, Selena Scott makes her way down the football field. watching the annual affair. “Winning isn ' t always everything but having fun is. I enjoyed the game. Everyone seemed to be having a good time, commented Deanna Durham. As for the injuries, there was only one in the game. Karen McMillioij hurt her knee in which a foul was called on the juniors. Practice, how- ever, took a heavier toll. Selena Scott left practice one night with a black eye after a collision with Nicky Bur- gess. The game ended in a tie score of 7-7. No overtime was played because the buses were waiting to take the stu- dents home. “I’m glad it was a tie even though I wish we would have won, Selena Scott said. “I guess it’s best for every- one. That way everyone comes out a winner. 26 — Powderpuff Football
