Page 31 text:

Spirit Week was a homecoming event in which every student and facility member could participate by dressing up for each designated day. Monday: On Prehistoric Day, cavemen and women and dinosaurs were seen prowling around the corridors. Tuesday: Knights, jesters, princesses, and toga-clad individuals convened on the campus during Roman and Medieval Day. Wednesday: Lasos flew on Western and Colonial Day as cowboys attempted to capture Indians as well as the early settlers. Thursday: On Twentieth Century Day, anyone and everyone could be considered costumed. Friday: The week drew to an end on Futuristic Day where punkers were prevalent. Many of the costumes took much preparation and consideration. Through the spirit of the student body. Spirit Week 1981 was a smashing success. id Brenda Groenc lone man Sophodcltc.

An old tradition was reinstated into the Lion’s Roar. Several years ago. the Lion’s Roar was a collection of skits produced by spirited and talented clubs. This interesting concept was renewed this year. The theme of the Lion’s Roar was ’’Pastime at Uncle Leo’s.” Prehistoric, Medieval. Egyptian. Twentieth Century, and Futuristic skits, along with ones about Lionstein and Super Leo were presented by many clubs. Innovative ideas by Junior Civitan, Flag Corp, Lioncttes, Anchor, Medieval Club, SPOK, Thespians, Science Club, and Music Theory made the skits worth the effort involved in producing them. And, the result was fantastic. The highlight of the evening was the announcement of the top five contestants for King and Queen. Sue Beck, Nancy Brocato, Sybil Myers. Ambrea Johnson, and Michelle Karau received the honor for Queen candidacy; while Keith Coates, Art Varnadore, Henry Bell, Steve Griffin, and Dave Macko were nominated for King. The new Lion’s Roar was an innovative and successful Idea.
