0 J W1 By Amy Turnquist all Homecoming Week, Oct. 5-9, was capped by the Indians' 31-0 victory over the Wichita North Redskins. After the players wiped-out their opponent, the student body rocked to the theme Wipe Out at the Homecoming dance in the South gym. During the halftime of the game, the Homecoming honoraries were recognized, and Matt Laurie and Katie Williams were named King and Queen. The week began with Denim Day, followed by p u t E . t Homecoming victory caps week-long activities Twin Day, Asymmetrical Day, Time Warp Day, and the traditional Class Color Day on Friday: faculty in yellow, freshmen in green, sophomores in red, juniors in white and seniors in blue. Thursday night's activities included the powder puff football game where the West team, led by Theresa Suggs and Holly Hunt, defeated the East, 36-12. The pep rally at halftime was comprised of the traditional burning of the M to the cheers of the powder puff cheerleaders and Mr. Myron Schwinn fulfilling his duty as winner of the second annual SADD- sponsored Kiss-the-Pig contest. Friday featured the parade from West Loop to CiCo Park. The S50 best float award went to the Junior Class for their float portrayal of a wave wiping out a Wichita North Redskin. Junior Angie Read, who put a lot of time and effort into the winning float, said that lt was worth the effort because our last two floats were really good, but we didn't win anything. Everyone worked really hard and it was so much fun. Our class is really special because we work together.

o 'li 'n s '- U ,' 1: 71' u ', . 2. 0. I ' .gi . ,rl , .. , 1 ' . . irdiei Musical recreates '50s scenario By Alan Reeves o you remember the pain and agony we all felt when Elvis Presley, the beloved rock star, was drafted into the Army? Probably not. But a similar story was portrayed in Bye Bye Birdie, which was presented at MHS Nov. 12, 14 and 15. More than 2,000 people attended the musical. Conrad Birdie, played by senior Tim Adams, was worshipped by millions of teen-age girls. The central conflict occurred when Conrad was drafted into the Army, which caused mass hysteria among his zealous fans. Conrad's manager, Albert, played by senior Bob Fleener, attempted to make the most of a bad situation by offering one girl the chance to give Conrad a good-bye kiss. SPANISH ROSE During her solo dance, Rosie Alvarez lDaphne Richardsi strikes a pose. iphoto by Holly Lambertl To cause further turmoil, Albert's secretary, played by senior Daphne Richards, used the panic to try and force Albert to leave show business, marry her and become an English teacher. Albert started out as a wimp. Towards the end of the musical, though, he finally gets a backbone, tells his mother off and proposes to Rosie, said Bob Fleener. To stage the musical required the work of more than 125 cast, crew and orchestra members. Everyone worked so well with each other, just like a family, said junior Scott Wissman, who played the part of Hugo, Kim lVlacAfee's boyfriend. Kim, played by senior Erica Cocke, was the girl chosen to give Conrad his last kiss. THE ULTIMATE FAMILK With dreamy eyes, the MacAfee family sings of their desire to be on The Ed Sullivan Show. Family members are Kim lErica Cockei, Mrs. MacAfee iNanette Pelletierl, lVlr. MacAfee lLynn Seylerl and Randolph iScott Bowlesl. iphoto by Scott Boydl Bye Bye Birdie 17 1 1 5.7, 'v fi: f i i fa F 1
