Council shapes school spirit JL he tossed together body of students which make up the Student Council of John Mar- shall High worked together to make school a more cozy but exciting place. Elections held last year yielded a victory for Monique Hunt who took con- trol of the presidential gavel. Runners-up in a tie, Felecia Ro- seburgh and Cindy Caine made up the vice-prez squad. Student Council sponsored many school activities — events such as skating parties, career days, fund-raising projects, and flower sales. To raise morale, they had the Keep Marshall Open Committee and spirit week, where everyone could let loose and show off a little cre- ativity that supports the school. The Council worked within the school and nearby commu- nity in which we reside in for better student business rela- tions. Working to gether with the president and vice presi- dents were other cabinet mem- bers Mike Harder, Craig Mor- ris, Charlotte Morrow, Arbery Butler, Vida Smith, Debbie Lu- tocka, and Mark Goff. The Council is sponsored by Mr. Ben Sanders, freshman coun- selor, who has taken part in school government for many years.

Patriot Personalities add color, spirit, pride H. . ave you ever been to ■ a football game and wondered who those funny kids in the funky clothes were? Well, that was Anna Powell and Clint Gasaway, our Patriot Personalities. I think we symbolize the spirit of Marshall, said Anna, the twelfth of the fe- male Personalities chosen since the program started in 1970. In order to qualify for nomi- nation, a person must be a student of good character, who has scholastically achieved in the top 25% of his or her class. Each must be outgo- ing, cheerful, and dignified. A student can volunteer to be a Personality, but is usu- ally nominated by a teach- er or counselor as were Clint and Anna. After the nominations, the student must be interviewed by the principal, the director of guid- ance, the dean of boys and girls, the junior counselor, the senior sponsor, the senior class president, student council president, and the Nation- al Honor Society president. I enjoy being a Patriot Personality very much. It ' s really exciting getting in front of the crowds and trying to get the spirit in them, commented Clint on his feel- ings about being a Person- ality. He is the twelfth male Personality in Marshall ' s history. Anna ' s feelings were somewhat similar. I think it ' s fun. It gives me a chance to represent Marshall. The students of Mar- shall generally feel the same about this year ' s Personal- ities. Ronda Myers, a junior varsity cheerleader, comments I think they represent our school well. They stand out there and show how much spirit we have. I think they are two well put together people and I feel that they represent the school to its full poten- tial, states Arbery But- ler, the senior class president, by Barb Mogollon Dressed in full costume, the Marshall Band, led by drum major Dan Dobbs, enter following the flag-bearing Pa- triettes. The band received a new direc- tor this year, Mr. Eduard Fredriks. A look alike mock-up of the Liberty Bell, Marshall ' s own Patriot bell, is rang by students during a football game.

This is how many Patriots spend that wonderful forty min- utes of mayhem called lunch. On their way out the door, they see fellow Patriots searching for a table with enough room for them and their Algebra, Eng- lish, and two-foot art project. These are the Patriots that enjoy the company of Norman Bright, the infamous Five minutes til the bell man. These are the Patriots that can ' t af- ford to go out for lunch or just plain don ' t want to. But these are the Patriots that don ' t have to worry about getting back to school in time for their next class. There are several pro ' s and con ' s to dining in or out for lunch but the biggest pro is be- ing where you can enjoy your lunch and your free time. by Lisa Murphy Waving vigorously after being attacked by a flying cheeseburger. Drum Major Danny Dobbs and Jodi Elliott spent their 40 minute lunch at the Golden Arches. Admiring a senior picture during a dis- cussion over cheeseburgers and fries, Chris Cazares, Paula Burleson, Mike Harder and Eli Garza enjoy their 6th period lunch. Some students choose the quiet conve- nience of the cafeteria because of its low prices and closeness. A well balanced meal goes for a paltry 95 cents. Lunch 1 9
