However, because of Houston's economy recession, many of the sale prices for the livestock were down this year. Everyone had such a great time during the sale because it is exciting to compete for grand champion, stated Jennifer Stoelke, sophomore. The Grand Champions were as follows: Steers - Scott Letterman Hogs - Holly Conlan X Chickens - Gail Khrojak Lambs - Elizabeth Dyer Rabbits - Trey Thompson The carnival and show held March 12-14 was considered one of the best events of the year. The whole town was involved Saturday as the parade marched by. Every organization could be seen from the drillteam to Hutsell Elementary school children. I think that the carnival was the best part of the whole weekend, stated Dwight Gross, sophomore. By Pam Petillon X3 , 1

As the chauffeur stops the car behind a silver Lincoln town car, the town car pulls away. Inside, the two couples, stomachs full and hopes high for the evening yet to come, toast their prom glasses to celebrate the Senior Prom of 1987. Arriving aft the Adams Mark Hotel on Westheimer, the girls fixed their makeup and the guys straightened their bow ties. The town car was parked in one of the last spots of the lot next to a black jaguar. Inside the hotel, beautiful prom dresses and tuxedos of all kinds could be found. The senior class of 1987 and their guests were spending an evening of sophistication and romance. The air was filled with the smell of perfume and the latest dance and slow songs could be heard over the talking. Among the crowded dance floor, which was filled with dancers, were other couples relaxing around the '87 sculptured in ice in the center of the room. As fast song after fast song was played one or two country songs could be distinguished over U2 and Dead Or Alive. All the kikkers ran out to the dance floor to two step to George Strait while everyone else colled down with a coke or a homemade Blue Bell Sundae. One a.m. came quickly time flies when you're having fun. Couples paired off once again to leave the Adams Mark, went home to change clothes and then left to go skiing at Lake Somerville or to Galveston on Sunday. Hugs and kisses along with quite a few flowing tears were given to dates and friends as the prom song This is the time to remember was played. The senior class of 1987 was together for the last time on May 2, 1987 and it was definitely a time to remember. By Pam Petillon 26 A Senior Prom 1987
