TAKING ANEW LOOK AT THINGS The 1986-87 school year brought quite a few new looks with it. As far as activities go: the concession stands at the football stadium were painted green and white, the track was completely redone and has a new type of surface, the gym floor was completely redone and Coach Lucy added a special touch with the Hawks he painted on it, the band took their new look to the State marching contests as everyone agreed that their new uniforms boosted morale, the basketball players got a break when General Construction built a cushioned bench for them, and the tennis courts got new lights. Seven new classes were added this year as well as ten new faculty members. There were new organizations such as the Mean Green Hawkette” pom squad and a Ladies Choir. Over the summer work was done and we came back to: Mr. Kaspar's Emergency Shower, new lunch trays, new admit slips, and new warning stickers that were put on our cars if we did something wrong. Things added during the year were: a pay phone in the front hall, new curtains in the auditorium, a new phone system and new carpet in the office, new desks in a few classrooms, new floor mats inside the front doors, a new Class of '87 banner in the gym, and balloons became the “in thing to send a friend. The school came up with a new theme, Striving for Excellence”, and cards were sent to students to show appreciation for hard work and dedication. All of these new additions made the year a little more pleasant, a little less complicated, and gave us all something more to be proud of. New phones in the office, new admit slips, and new classes, such as French and Accounting II, help to confuse and amuse us. The concession stands were painted over the summer and the track was redone in January and February. Balloons became the thing to send someone. 6 OPENING Coach Lucy added a special touch to the new gym floor with the hand-painted Hawks. Doug Dietrichson uses the new pay phone that was installed for student use in early December.

Casey Rains and Rachel Gates. ft fHodern DATING GAfTlE Eric and Shelly. Doug and Kristie, Mark and Jana Cody Claybrook and James Mcllroy Let’s face it, dating in the late 80's is definitely different than it was 20 years ago. These days, girls are paying on dates and some are even ask- ing the guys out. What do the guys think about this? Well, most said they would love for the girls to make the first move. And they certainly wouldn't mind if the girls paid once in a while. After all, dates are expensive these days. An average date, usually dinner and a movie, runs about $25 to $30. That could really add up if you went out both Friday and Saturday night every weekend. Some of the places to take a date these days are Samari of Tokyo, the Entertain- ment Center, and the movies. But just about everyone agrees that cruising Kemp on a date is definitely a turn off. Some girls said that they wouldn't mind dating a guy a little younger than them but most like the guys older and a little more mature. Most all of the guys said they would go out with a girl that is older than them. This makes the point that age doesn't really mat- ter anymore (to a certain extent). So whatever you do or whoever you go out with, just remember that the whole purpose is to have a good time. A traditional symbol of dating. COMPLIMENTS OF: LOUIS JEWELERS 408 W. PARK 592-5942
