Powder-Puff Game ,Mom Senior coach Ken Catlett assists team member Betty Beamon with a bit of advice on tactics to use. Kslam Junior class Lancerettes Jimmy Hayes, Doug Miller, Tyler Lee, Cal- vin Belcher, Mack Woodcock, and Greg Hicks display a tremendous amount of skill during one of their routines. X if .seam am mm Ama Q- Senior Danny Holt, escorted by June Laine, expresses a sigh of relief as he is crowned Powder-Puff King by Senior Class Sponsor Mrs. Evamon Green. On September 30 a whistle blew. This whistle preceded the kickoff of the l967 Powder-Puff Game. The senior girls once again donned football helmets and jerseys, while the juniors tried their jerseys on for size. Anxiety crept into the hearts of the girls as they exer- cised diligently to get in shape for the big game. Practice was the key word for this event. While the girls were learning big plays like the quarterback sweep and the right roll, the boys learned cheers and maiorette routines. Rivalry between all of the classes mounted to its peak at the pep rally. Songs were sung, mascots and sweet- hearts were announced, and the teams were officially pre- sented to their fans. During halftime the royalty activities occurred. The awaited moment was the announcement of Danny Holt as the I967 Powder-Puff King. At the conclusion of the game, the girls were tied with a score of 27-27. Exhausted and weary, they headed to the locker rooms to dress for the Powder-Puff Dance where the Deadbeats played. At the dance following the game, Betty Beamon, Nancy Crooks, Margaret Garber, Pat Hamilton, Geraldine Duty, and Norma Ragland were named as the most valuable players of the game. This announcement concluded the evening's festivities. 13
