Who ' s got spirit? WE DO! WE DO! screamed the KHS Warriors, and they proved it the week of October 4-8. Student participation made this year ' s the most successful SCA sponsored Spirit Week ever. A haberdasher ' s delight, the Warriors donned a diverse assortment of hats from sombreros to tam-o-shanters to begin their pep filled week. The enthusiastic Indians dressed out in the sweatshirts and jerseys of their favorite teams on Tuesday, Football Jersey Day. Messed up was dressed up on grub day, and students embarked from home in sleeveless t-shirts, torn and painted jeans, and untied shoes. The infectious spirit bug reached epidemic proportions on Thursday, Fifties Day. With their hair greased back, the leather jacketed toughs escorted their bobby-socked babes in saddle oxfords through the halls between classes. Culminating the week, KHS ' ers wore green and white on Firday to show off the school colors. Fifth period, the spirited students filed down to the boys ' gym for the Homecoming pep rally. After the cheering had subsided, the exuberant Class of ' 79 was awarded the coveted Spirit Jug. Who ' s got spirit? WE DO! WE DO! screamed the KHS Warriors. lass pride is the mark of a spirited Warrior, and Kim Taylor makes the grade with her cheer of 7-8 D-O-M-I-N-A-T-ES.

After much hard work representing the school. Kecoughtan Naval Junior ROTC members took time out of their busy schedule to hold the 9th Annual Military Ball. On Friday. March 19th, the school annex provided a perfect setting for the occasion. With traditional navy colors, blue and gold, the ROTC members dressed the area with decorative wall coverings, streamers, and pictures. The dominant decoration was a mural of a large sailing vessel painted by senior. Rodney Weems. Highlighted by the gold as their back- ground, A Touch of Class, a Norfolk- based naval band, provided the enter- tainment for the evening. ROTC members were proud of the suc- cess of the ball as each couple enjoyed the music and the company, reluctantly departing at the close of the evening Barefoot in the dark, Lynn Gagen and Vernon Seekins The ro °l ' s Jailing, the roof is falling!
