After winning the AFS sponsored contest, Senior Jerry Kahn models his award win- ning legs for all the world to see. The Scarlet Hurricane Marching Band is led onto the field by Majorette Lisa Mays and Drum Major Monty Potter. Thanks to the efforts of the SCA, students can play Volleyball or just sit and talk in the gym during both lunch periods. mm mm: mm m As usual, the fall months of school were busy. This year how- ever, some new activities enliven- ed LHS. Most unique of these events was the AFS Legs Contest. Jerry Kahn ended up with the most penny votes to win the all male competition. ’75 was also the year that the SCA hosted the District SCA meeting. Various SCA’s came to LHS for the annual assemblage of student leaders. The whole affair went exception- ally well. Because of the persis- tence of a few SCA members, the gym was opened to students during both lunches. For the third year in a row, Sophomore girls earned money for their class by ushering at VMI football games. The vote of the people is the basis of Democracy and LHS is a true believer! Elections were held for officers and representatives for many organizations. Fall Events 19

With a week’s experience under their belts and flags on their sides, the Juniors and Seniors ran on the field for the annual Powderpuff game. Teams were coached by football players and PE teachers, with referees con- sisting of LHS male faculty mem- bers and students from a Wash- ington and Lee officiating class. All cheerleaders, as usual, were fellows from their respective classes. The half-time show was highlighted by a show from the Seniors. A split chin, suffered by Karen Blackwell, was the only casualty in the game which ended in a 12-12 tie, the highest score in the last six years. In the end, however, the Seniors retired their colors, undefeated in two seasons. The starting line up for the Seniors looks rough as a play is about to get under way. i Powderpuff 21
