W' Good tim Jefferson J-Hawks, fight, fight! As the pep band plays the fight song, the pep as- sembly officially starts. Sophomores, juniors, and sen- iors all stand up to chant for their respective class. Pom pons do routines to pep band music and cheer- leaders show off their spirited cheers and latest mounts. The sports for the present season are then introduced along with the athletes who participate in them. Often a skit or two will accompany a pep assembly. This year The Twelve Days of Christmas was pre- sented at a December pep assembly. Thomas Jeffer- son lalso known as Mr. Geuderl acted as the master of ceremonies. At another assembly selected sopho- more, junior, and senior men showed their J-Hawk spirit by singing the fight song. The senior group fconsisting of Roger Bouzek, Kyle Cobb, Rob Edgeton, Todd Miskimen, Tim Moore, Mike Vercande, and John Waddilovel and the sophomore group fconsisting of Mark Hartman, Brian Kaliban, Randy Meier, Matt Ush- er, and Mark Weberl tied for singing the best rendi- tion of the fight song. Each winner received a candy bar. J Junior Tina llten commented, I like pep assemblies because they get everyone fired up before a big game and they also give everyone a chance to show their true J-Hawk spirit.

Xx, Seniors Lynn Hanna, Connie Jacobson, Scott Anderson, and Leah Cihla are all smiles at the Thespian mixer. Wearing the latest fashions at a mixer, senior Angie Pedersen moves to the beat. A rockin' good time is had by Cindy Beary, Jill Wenzel, Karen Hanson, and Debbie Meler. Michael Jackson's exhilarating songs filled the J-Hawk cafeteria as students boogied to the beat. For the first time ever at mixers, a breath analyzer was used to calm the wild and obnoxious be- havior of some students. Because of this, the mixers weren't as popular, but they still helped organizations raise needed money. I think the breath analyzer ruined the attendance and made them boring, remarked junior Ju- lie Heese. Many students did go to the mixers, though, and enjoyed themselves.
