Lions Roar Over Garrett Winning isn ' t everything, but the victory over Garrett on Friday night helped make the 1984 Homecoming more thrilling. Homecoming! The sound of that word brought exceitment to the students, faculty, and staff at Leo. Last year ' s Homecoming, like all others, was a week long event, climaxing on Friday, Octo- ber 5, 1984. This was the day of the big gome. Last year, unlike the pre- vious two years, the Lions won. They defeated the Garrett Rail- roaders by a score of 21-6. This was definitly a boost to our school spirit. As Jami Carey put it, It ' s about time we won a Homecom- ing game! During halftime of the game, the winners of the class competi- tion were announced. The overall winners were: first place, seniors; second place sophomores; third place freshmen, and fourth place, juniors. Winners in the indi- vidual categories included the seniors for their skit, the sopho- mores for their gift, and the fresh- men for their float. The game, combined with the events afterwards, made Friday a big day. Before, during, and after the dance, the 1984 Oracle was passed out to eager stu- dents by the yearbook staff. After picking up their year- books, the students danced off the thrill of victory to the music of Mistaken Identity at the home- coming dance. As the dance came to an end, students slowly filed out of the auditeria, and the exciting day of the 1984 Homecoming came to a close. — Brian Lutgens Sophomores Jim Yankosky Melanie Brandt, Vickie Stuckey, and Damon Lercel look at the 1984 Oracle after the Lions ' victory over the Railroaders homecoming night.

A New Kind of Training Out of season atliletes prepare for their upcoming season. The aching muscles were just a small portion of what one had to deal with after a grueling after- noon of aerobics. For most though, the pain ceased after about two weeks and the rou- tines were easier to keep up with. Aerobics was not just for girls, but for everyone including many guys, teachers, and cafeteria workers. I had gone to aerobics before and enjoyed it, but since I started working at the school, I wasn ' t able to go anymore. Since aerobics was right after school I was able to attend, stated Mrs. Connie Shade, cafeteria worker. Aerobics was held each Mon- day, Wednesday, and Friday; and it usually lasted from 3:30 P.M. until 4:30 P.M. The classes were held in either the senior high gym, junior high gym, or the wres- tling room. There were an esti- mated twenty to twenty-five participants for each session and Mrs. Julie Manger led the classes. The reason for many athletes attending the aerobic sessions was to get some early condition- ing for the approaching winter sports. Senior Rob Pulver stated, The real reason I ' m in aerobics is to make Coach Butt happy and so that I will be able to start varsi- ty basketball. Aerobics was for anyone who wanted to attend. It was worth the participants ' time and effort if he was interested enough to spend an excruciating hour run- ning, jumping, clapping, and hearing some favorite songs. As summed up by Craig Ward, It was all worthwhile and a lot of ■ — Shelly Slentz ( (§ Lifestyles — Aerobics )
