J' 5 ff Fi' fa fl.: The senior parking lot is a good idea, but it isn't enforced. -Senior Gary Elonzae- I co-operated in every way with the spirit build up, going to games, cheering at pep sessions and involving myself in clubs. -Senior Mario Trevino- I like the activities period but not the enrichment period because too many people don't do anything. -Senior Beth Warrick- l think I was indifferent about the whole thing. I think it was nice they tried new approaches to get spirit. -Junior Grant Schreiber- THE SENIOR PARKING LOT, a sectional winning tennis team Calong with wrestling and girls basket- ballj, male cheerleaders and the 'Mr. Beight's' cheerblock reflected some of the major changes at Homestead in 1977-1978.
