ARKING ANY twlifs 44.2-Misha ' Free S pmt Spirit Week at Hayfield was highlighted by four days of fanaticism. Sports Day, Nerd Day, Costume Day, and Orange and White Day prepared the student body for Homecoming. On Tuesday, students dressed as motorcycle racers, horse jockeys, and field hockey players to portray their favorite sport. Wednesday featured nerds distinguished by their glasses of a generation past, their high-water pants, and their shirt pockets stuffed full of writing utensils. Ms. Davis commented that she liked Nerd Day the best, and I could have kicked myself for not having my camera. Thursday sparked students' imaginations and brought forth some outrageous and imaginative costumes. Individuals dressed as Arabian sheiks, flower children of the late l96O's, members of the Beatles, monks, and clowns. On Friday, the traditional Orange and White Day, students and teachers proudly wore team jerseys while others wore flourescent socks, vests, army fatigues, and class t-shirts. The week was capped off by an enthusiastically filled pep rally on Friday. School unity and spirit echoed in the gym as the student body cheered the football team and the Homecom- ing Court. The seniors paraded around in army fatigues and won the most spirited cIass award for their rowdy cheers and enthusiasm. Spirit week was an unusual, fun-filled way of expressing the true quality of spirit at Hayfield. It enabled all students to use their individuality to generate school spirit. But, in the words of Senior Ronnie Bramlett, it was also the ultimate in public humiliation. -Nur? i Where's my camel? Abdul, alias John Jameson, is positive that he left his camel here, in this parking space, not ten minutes ago. Gee! l know the answer to that!
