Gettin' Hitched T he vows said in the Las Vegas wedding chapels were no competition for the business done during the Sadie Hawkins dance last March 26. Couples waited in Marryin' Sam's line for as long as a half hour, looking forward to a quick hitch-up and a honeymoon in the hay. It was a traditional Sadie Hawkins, said Renee Gaddi, Girls' League president. Everybody's cos- tumes l ooked great. There had probably not been such a con- glomeration of denim and straw hats since the last farming convention. We worked all year towards this dance, one Girls' League member explained. The dance is sponsored by Girls' League and is their major activity for the year. From the grins on all the black-freckled faces, Sadie Hawkins was deemed a success. I waited all year to ask John to this thing, one sly-eyed girl said, referring to the girls-ask-guys stipu- lation on the dance. She continued, See over there? That's Mike. Next year.. 126 Sadie Hawkins

Each sport was highlighted, and the coaches and teams recognized. The pep rally for the home football game against the San Diego Cavers was opened by Wilma Warhawk swinging in on a gymnastic rope, while cheerleaders dressed like cave- men walked around beating each other with peper clubs. A bicentennial homecoming pep rally caught the cheerleaders wearing football jerseys, pants, helmets, and shoulder pads while doing cheers on the lunch court. Machine gun the Komets blasted through the gym for the rally against long-time rivals, KEARNY!! THfc setting was radio station W I L M A, narrated by D.J. Bird. Songs like you've got Komet breath, boosted excite- ment for the coming game. The finale was a dance routine to Machine gun, which was choreographed by Charles Amos. More pep rallies were presented in 75-76 than in previous years, and the cheerleaders and pep-band felt that they contributed a lot to the school moral. 128 Pep Rallies
