Students came to the school on Sunday to decorate the school and set the spirit for a very exciting week. The senior girls won first place in the hall decorating contest. German Club came in second and Cheerps (Cheerleaders and Pom Pon Squad) and C-Club tied for third. The week was filled with fun and up lifting activities. These activities included the tug-of-war. which the seniors eventually won by defeating the juniors. The cageball game was fought between the senior and junior girls, and the senior girls triumphed. 7-6. The senior class also won the spirit stick and the very exciting. creative obstacle course during the pep assembly. Students also participated in Kiss-a-senior and Hug an athlete day. We also had some very unique costumes designed by Chris Clark. David Griffin, and Stuart Gonzales on Crazy Day. “Slave Day was rather different this year. Not only were the sophomores involved, but the freshmen were included, too. The rules were altered this year. The students did not have to participate if they did not want to be involved. Seniors and juniors were required to make the tasks not too difficult or ridiculous The entire week proved to be very successful. The students showed a lot of spirit for their teams All the activities were enjoyed and participated in by almost all of the student body. 160 Homecoming The new school brought some added changes. The senior girls were disappointed at first because they were not able to decorate the school grounds as part of their overnight. However, the decorating was done for the interior of the school by the four classes, cheerleaders, J-ettes, foreign language department, and C Club on Sunday before Spirit Week began. This new approach turned out to be very good and a lot of fun. The school was filled with an enthusiastic atmosphere. The senior girls had a most memorable time at their overnight. This year more girls joined in the activity than ever before, and the evening went on and on. This year there seemed to be a touch more spirit throughout the student body than in past years. It left the seniors with a great impression which will standout in their memories of their high school years. Crimsons Roll Over Crimsons By the third day of Spirit Week, the junior and senior girls were acting the part of being the athletes they would be that night in the cageball game. They wore the red and white jerseys borrowed from the football players to school the day of the game. The battle that night was all in fun. of course, but the squads and their coaches took it rather seriously. They had spent several nights, sometimes on unlighted practice fields, preparing for the big event. The cheerleaders were excellent in their enthusiasm Their strange need to pour water on themselves amused the crowd greatly. The junior acrobatic cheerleaders were Kermit Henderson. Gary Large. Jerry Goodman. Tom Williams and Jeff Blue The senior cheerleaders were Chris Black. Stuart Gonzales, and Kevin Travis. They were reluctant at first to show their stuff, but by the end of the game, they were wild and crazy. Everyone enjoyed the game. Certainly many of the girls got a big kick out of the game. Girls powder puff will never be the same since they introduced cageball. The seniors won the hard fought game. 7-6. The Crimson March The Homecoming parade began as the Crimsons organized their march at Duncan Park. The students involved in the parade waited patiently for the sun finally to break through on the gloomy morning. The preparations for the parade were a chaos of balloons, streamers, and posters as these were taped to cars, trucks and floats. Despite all the last minute confusion, the parade started on time. 164 Homecoming The floats this year were very colorful and full of spirit. The juniors took first place in the float competition. Their logo was Charge ’em,” and the float was a powerful bull that had speared a Centennial Charger with its horns.The class must have received points for mechanics as the bull’s legs moved, and he blew smoke from his nose. Second place was won by the sophomores with their Pac ’em away float, depicting Pac-Man chewing up a Charger. Third place went to the seniors with their train float and the theme Choochoo ’em up. The freshman placed fourth with their slogan Defeet ’em.” The spirited parade ended on a happy note. It was soon followed by a Homecoming football victory at the athletic field. Homecoming 165 Crimson And Clover The Homecoming dance was held on Saturday evening at the school cafeteria, following a full day of activities and games. “Crimson and Clover,” sung by Joan Jet nd the Blackhearts, was the theme for the §982 dance.

Homecoming 167 Three One-Act Plays The Jacksonville High Thespians opened their season at the new high school with three one-act plays. They performed them in the lobbies and in the media center since the auditorium was not finished in time for the productions December 3 and 4. The first of the plays was The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds. This play is about a young girl's dream of maturing to make a difference in the world. Ginette Tankersley was Tillie, Betty Taylor was Beatrice, Cindy Aldridge was Ruth, and Timmie Harrington was Nanny. The second play, Tea and Sympathy, deals with a boy who receives unjustifiably harsh treatment from his school officials, his father and his peers because of false accusations. Cast members were Terri Smith. Tim McKula, Chris Cassels, Adam Stephens. Allan Leckbee and Gary Large. The third play. The Hunter and the Bird,” projected a humorous touch into the evening through a fantasy in which an Elmer Fudd-type hunter unsuccessfully hunts a witty, light hearted bird. Steve Varble and Gilly Herald played the hunter and the bird. David Lomelino, Kathy Taylor, and Sarah Horton were the living scenery in the play. The directors of the one-act plays were junior Doug Souza. 1982 graduate Alicia Colbert and drama teacher Mrs. Dianne Bergschneider. 168 Fall Play Christmas Magic December 17, in the school cafeteria.

The theme for the whole dance was Cupid” and the theme song was Two Less Lonely People by Air Supply. Brian Nyberg was an added attraction to the dance with his rendition of Jack and Diane by John Cougar. This dance was very special to everyone because it took place after our victory over Quincy at the basketball game earlier that evening. It turned out not only to be a dance for lovers but also a dance for winners . Sweetheart Dance 173 Spring . . . Time For Fun! Spring fever week lasted for three days leading up to our spring break. The week’s activities included: Monday — camera day and sixties day; Tuesday — survival day and student teach over day; Wednesday — sweats and button day.
