Brett Cook, Paul Munns, and Keith Nielson won the Slam Dunk contest during the junior-sponsored noon forum for Home- coming Week. Ordering class rings was a highlight in the year as they saved their money, anticipating the arrival. Worrying, planning, and decorating were all part of the Junior Prom and at the end every jun- ior was proud to say, I ' m in the class of ' 79.

They may be the youngest, but they are showing the other classes an example of what they can do. There lies a potential that cannot be matched with athletes, the artists, the musicians, the scholars, and the spirit that is destined to lead. Having the best float theme in Homecoming started a year of sophomore recognition. We are proud of our fantastic class; the class of 1980. L to R: Kelly Burgener. Vice President: Barbara Perham.

Weigh-in forum was followed by a slam-dunk contest, a mini track meet, and a girl ' s tug of war. SBOs and alumni rallied the school spirit when they presented a Kill Those Cougars assembly. Marathon runners, a senior hel- icopter presentation, races through obsta- cle courses, and blind football were all part of the traditional Bobcat Decathlon. 1 1 th Commandment — Thou shall have the biggest float.

Floats are formed one napkin at a time. Two miiners-up added to finals Preliminaries, charm classes, and judges tea were only a few of the things Miss Madison contenders experienced before their final night. Changes such as prelimi- nary judging and adding third and fourth runners-up added to the confusion during those hectic days. With so much to be done, the girls became pressed with ready- ing their talents and routines. But as they struggled, reflections of the happy moments caught the spirit of Junior Miss.

Reflections of the twelve Miss Madison finalists. The twelve girls nervously await the announcement of the winners. Outstanding students receive awards Scholastic achievement and involvement in student activities set the requirements for the selection of the boy and girl of the month. At the beginning of each month the chosen couple was announced over the intercom. Special recognition was given in the local and school newspapers. Also, their pictures and write-ups were displayed in the trophy case. 68 But I wanted December.

Hair dryers came in handy after serving sentences in the ice block during the Bel Cantos Forum. Snake dancers weaved down Main in an effort to gain sponsors for the new athletic complex. Pep assemblies helped to add spirit and excitement to the school sports. Assemblies keep students entertained 75 Choir room turned into stage for musical Dames at Sea is a farce about the Hol- lywood musical extravaganzas of the 1930 ' s. Only six members, were required to fill the cast for the-tapping musical, but the talent dsplayed outdid all imagination. John Bidwell treated this first drama-pro- duced musical as his own baby and brought stars to light. Scott Ricks found that he had finally gained weight when he broke his mop stick doing the kick-the- habit routine during rehearsals. Have failh, Hennessy. Would somebody fix this leaky roof!

Everything from an invisible tree to a pear tree decked the halls with Drama awarded first prize. On Friday classes were dismissed so students could attend a Christmas assem- bly. Included in the assembly were acts from the Drama Club and a skit by SBOs. Seniors sponsored the Senior Ball with the theme Merry Christmas, Darling to end MHS ' Christmas Festivities.

WDuld a stop watchin Sweetheart Ball concludes Pepper Week Pepper officers spent many hard hours planning and preparing in anticipation for the traditional Pepper Week, the highlight of Pepper Club activities. Their devotion was shown through the various successful events such as red and white day, a kissing booth, a boys ' slave sale, sock-it-to- ' em day, and an afro-grubby day. Tinted in silver and pink, the Sweetheart Ball fin- ished off the perfect week with the theme You ' re My World, My Everything. Mr. Boice plunges in.

At least try to make this look romantic. Afro day raises a chuckle. 81 Kissing forum: practice makes perfect Raw egg eating contest added to MHS week Reminising junior high days MHS Week got off to a good start by holding a noon dance costing ten cents. Tuesday was Polygamy Day followed by an early morning breakfast which included pan- cake eating contests and a new tradition, a raw egg eating contest. Members from the Ricks College Program Bureau and the band Bittersweet performed Madison ' s most remembered assembly. Backwards Day, held on Friday the 13, ended the week in high fashion.

T7 SPORTS Football team acquires a new coach Starting out with a new coach is not always easy, but in the tradition of Madi- son High, the team gave it their best. After four straight defeats for the varsity squad, Madison gained revenge by winning the remaining four games. Madison High ' s newcomers, the sophomores, showed the school, and their opponents, that they wouldn ' t be beat after their first loss. With this year ' s promising young team, the coming season looks good for Madison High.

Cross country added to Madison ' s lineup It seemed to be a great year for cross- country running at Madison High. Madi- son ' s runners worked hard to develop a good pace and stamina. The runner ' s determination proved to be helpful. Madi- son placed first in the district tournament and fifth in the state tournament. Being one of the most demanding sports, cross- country running takes a special kind of athlete. This athlete must be able to cover all types of terrain and long distances. Nine wrestlers go to state Thunderous noises arose from the halls as those dedicated Madison wrestlers worked out each night. Wrestling has become very popular, shown by the greater participation and interest. Getting off to a slow start made things look bad for Madi-son ' s wrestlers. But as the year wore on and it came time for the District Six Tournament, Madison showed its opposition by taking runner-up. Nine of Madison ' s wrestlers took first or second place.

District tour- nament held surprises for Bobcat fans when they were defeated in their first game then came back to win all remaining games and take the district title. MHS his- tory was made by beating the undefeated South Fremont. Volleyball ' s highly suc- cessful year set standards for years to come. Next year we look forward to an excellent team.

Double overtime with Skyline started the year and every heart pounding for the red and white. Junior Varsity let no team beat them by more than two points and that happened only twice. Most of the games making up the 18-2 record ended like the Blackfoot garne with a forty-five point spread. The present JVs have the goal of taking state in ' 80. Go bribe the score keeper.

They had a hard regular season but made a big come- back in the district tournament. Second place came only after defeating top-rated Shelley and then losing twice to Rigby. Early morning breakfast, held in honor of the girls, provided an energy boost as well as a spirit boost. Many of the JV girls improved so much they were raised to var- sity at the end of the season.

The lettermen rep- resent outstanding members of football, basketball, wrestling, track, baseball, and golf. Football, basketball and baseball men earn their letters by playing a set amount of time; wrestlers earn their letter by a pin; golfers, by placing in a tourna- ment and track by placing in a meet.

Concert Band add a touch of class to MHS Clarinet, flute, saxaphone and trumpet players all worked together to help form the Symphony Band. Putting a good band together entails many hours of hard work on the part of not only dedicated mem- bers but a qualified director, Gary Decker. Band members performed three times during the year besides traveling to district music festival. Selected members also combined with the orchestra to pro- vide musical background for the annual musical. Orchestra fiddles its way into your heart ' i always like playing the violin when I ' m depressed, because it keeps my chin up. That wasn ' t the only reason members joined orchestra but it helped. Orchestra performed several numbers for the Christ- mas Concert including a selection with the Bel Cantos. They also kept busy practic- ing for their annual spring concert held at the end of March. Adding a professional touch to the production Calamity Jane the orchestra finished off a great year.

The fears of today Will build the steps Toward Tomorrow And our dreams for the future Are Bright. We ' ve learned how to smile Through our sorrows and tears. Only our keepsakes remain. Here now we stand Wanting to stay But still knowing We will keep Our friendships dear. Holding our memories near. GOOD-BYE OLD HIGH We gather once again before the parting With friends and class-mates we shall ne ' re forget. We think of days gone by, and years that seem to fly Since on the ihresh-hold of our school we met, We know not what the future holds before us, We cannot know the things that are in store, But old high you ' ve paved the way We ' re ready come what may Our happy, happy school days now are o ' re. No matter where we go or what befalls us, The scenes of days gone by shall ne ' re depart And in our hearts will ring, the songs we love to sing. Sweet memories will linger in each heart. The future lies beyond and we are standing Upon the threshold of a new-born day, f ay its cheery light e ' re shine, Across your path and mine, As hope-fully we journey on life ' s way. Good-bye, old high, the play is o ' re and the curtain falls, Good-bye, old high, we pass today from these well-loved halls. Good-bye, old high, through smiles and tears; mid hopes and fears. Through all these happy golden years, we ' re all for you!!!
