---pyzAt--- MOMSeOMJM Even though I've helped with Homecoming these past three years, this year I had a bigger part in it and the pressure was really on,” commented student body president Cliff Hewitt. Along with the everyday school work, Cliff worked on plans for Homecoming and practiced the boogie routine with the cheerleaders. But Cliff wasn't the only one who kept busy, the cheerleaders were pretty busy too. Sparking spirit for the Homecoming night, the cheerleaders sponsored spirit week which included hillbilly; hush; orange and black; crazy hat, sock and tie and dress-up days. Topping out the week of spirit building, the cheerleaders sponsored a pep rally in which Homecoming candidiates participated in some pretty far out contests. Candidates — senior Terri Spears, junior Kristy Rains, sophomore Amber Eagan, freshman Glenda Lake, 8th grader Becky Jenkins, and 7th grader Christa Stacy — tried to whistle after eating fifteen dry crackers. In one of the other contests they had to growl and imitate a real live tiger. To finish out the pep rally, the cheerleader who made the most money in their penny a vote I contest received a pie in their face. I Junior Frances Lake was the unlucky winner. Homecoming night brought a variety of action-filled events. All three games played against I Wheatland were won by the Humansville Tiger teams. In between two of the games the Tiger I cheerleaders and senior Cliff Hewitt did their boogie routine to PYT (PRETTY YOUNG THING) much to the crowds delight. Then the long I awaited moment arrived — the I crowning of senior Terri Spears as Homecoming queen. Finishing out I the eventful evening was the Homecoming dance sponsored by the Student Council and D.J.ed by I Jamie Weaver. When asked how he thought Homecoming went, student Dody I president Cliff Hewitt commented, Over all, I think it went really I well. Becky Piper

LIBERTY. The finale of the musical comedy included Becky Culbirth portraying the Statue of Liberty. HMMM! Jeff Stacy studies his part as a gangster on the run in the production of Give My Regards to Broadway. OH DARLING! Melissa Scott, alias Mona Monroe, expresses her regrets to Brian Pitts, alias director Dick Foster, that she can not do the part in his show. PLAY IT AGAIN. Famous pianist Eddie, otherwise known as Richard Weaver, plays some of the numbers in the musical comedy. Music teacher Ms. Frerking provided most of the music for the play. The production of Give mv Regard to Broadway was well received and deeply appreciated by the student body and their parents and friends who viewed the play on Oct. 21 and 22. The school play was directed by Sherry Welch with the music under the direction of Rosemary Frerking. The musical-comedy play allowed any student in the 7th through 12th grades to tryout for the cast. The cast members and other students involved contributed long and strenuous hours to the play's production. This work involved not only rehearsing but also constructing stage sets and support equipment. Admission charge for the play was $2 for adults and $1 for children. The money received from the play went into the speech budget for future plays. Our memories of this outstanding musical might be even sweeter if the student body and patrons of the school had attended in greater numbers. Nevertheless, the musical was a success and provided an outlet for talent to be exhibited and experience to be gained by several students. Bryan Allison
