Two bits, four bits, hey, six bits . . . could only remind you of one activity - pep rallies. Fridays are always looked forward to during foot- ball season. The halls are filled with excitement. Save me a seat. Are the GoldDusters doing a dance at the pep rally? Hurryl l want a good place to sit. The football guys talk about that night's game while eating the candy that was secretly placed in their lock- ers by one of the GoldDusters. Ribbons and pins are worn, and signs are hanging in the halls and gym telling the football guys of the stu- dents' spirit and support. The band starts playing alerting students the pep rally is about to start. Stragglers file in and try to find a place to sit, but the gym is packed by now and they usually have to sit on the floor. The band plays and the students sing the school song and fight song as the football team walks in. From that moment on the gym is never A group of students stand up and yell juniors, another group yells sophomores, while on the opposite side students are yelling freshmen and seniors. A tootsi roll! , A piece of cinnamon candy. , Oh l missed 'Throw some up here. , are the cries of the students as the cheerleaders toss spirit candy into the stands. During the hour of the pep rally the gym is rocking and hum- ming with spirit. The GoldDusters and twirlers perform their dances they have prepared for that night's game accompanied by the band. After the varsity cheerleaders do a humorous skit for the foot- ball team and are changing back into their uniforms, the iunior var- sity cheerleaders come to their aid and do some chants and yells until they return. The moment everyone impa- tiently waits for is the spirit con- es . The spirit stick is a baton col- ored purple and gold which sym- bolizes spirit. When the baton is held up in the air the students try to make as much noise as they possibly can. When the baton is held down, everyone calms down. The cheerleaders do a yell which sounds like this, Freshmen what's your battle cry? The freshmen stand up and yell as loud as they can, V-l-C-T-O-R-Y. The cheerleaders ask the question to all the classes, and the class that yells the loudest keeps the spirit stick till the next pep rally. Pep rallies were optional this year. The students could either go to study hall or to the pep rally. Even though the pep rallies were not mandatory, the gym was always packed and the students always showed spirit ancl support. 20- Student Life quiet. Q D Q .

ln the yearbook assembly Linda Delay holds her order blank for next yeor's book, as she listens to the instructions on how to fill it out. ASS9lTIbll9S The yearbook sales assembly was the first program held in the auditorium. Mr. Mark David, Taylor Publishing Co. representative, served as master of ceremonies. A slide show of students and fac- ulty was presented to the music of The Way We Were sung by Barbra Streisand. During the next assembly, Mr. Bill Boggess, an ex-convict on parole, spoke to the student body in the teaching theatre. He told of his mistakes in life, and tried to convince the students never to make the mistake he had made. The students were given a sneak preview of The Gold Duster show in the auditorium. The highlight of the show was Debby Ber- ger who kept falling down in a skate routine. The Drama department presented a play to the student body entitled The Imaginary lnvalid. The cast worked very hard on building the set, making costumes, and rehearsing their lines to make the assembly a success. The Senior Showoff was shown to the student body, after the night performance, as an assembly. The program helped the sen- iors to pay for their prom. Terry Wirzberg and Jayson Stewart get ready to sing their duet in the Senior Sho- woff, where they had voices like chickens. A priceless moment in the Gold Duster show. This was only ONE time when Debby Berger was on the floor. 22 - Student Life Reecy Payne begs her father, Greg Morrison, not to strike her, in the lmaginary lnvalid.
