Making A Scene Craig Ragland and June Vermilion win a tack race for the Senior class. The Senior and Sophomore classes fight it out in a spirit contest. r Gimme A J” The spirit of the ’86- ’87 student body rivaled that of any other in the past. Throughout a somewhat discouraging sports season, the upper and lower classmen remained pepped up and filled with school spirit. A new form of school support was initiated this year. A spirit week was established that included a JAMS day, 50’s day, Pee-Wee Herman day, a Country Western day, and Red A White day. A vast majority of the students and teachers participated and it succeeded in increasing school spirit to the limit. We also had more assemblies than in past years. At these assemblies, held in the gym, there were spirit contests that included class “yells , several games in which classes competed against each other, and JHS’s own version of the wave. Also, the Glee Club and Pep Bands furnished some new and popular music as entertainment. Besides the pep assemblies and spirit week, every Friday through football season was declared red and white day. The spirit season of the fall of ’86 will not easily be forgotten. Overture Spirit

Studying The Scripts Where Are They? “Are they here yet?” “When will they be delivered?” “Can I get mine early?” As late October rolled around, these questions and many more were heard in and around the JHS campus. Everyone was anxious to receive their 1986 yearbook. The yearbooks arrived on November 11 and distribution followed throughout the week. Last year's graduates appeared to eagerly collect their engraved books, while junior high students “oohed” and “ahhed” over their first yearbooks. The Osky Wow staff stayed busy keeping records and filing receipts during the week, while Mr. Rice stood in (for an ill Mrs. Eubanks) to handle any difficulty that arose. A special thanks to Mr. Rice and his art classes for their help and patience through a hectic week. As the yearbooks were handed out, many different comments were heard. “OOH, look at that picture!” “That's me!” “Where is it?” People crowded around the Osky Wow and shuffled through its pages. Smiles and laughter met each section as it was revealed. Throughout the day, people asked friends to sign yearbooks. Teachers yelled and complained, but still students brought them to class. The novelty of the yearbook lasted throughout the week. The yearbook itself will last almost forever. Overture Yearbook Distribution
