are IO... M ORP reverses fashion styles By Heather Riley pproximately 200 students dressed in their worst attended IVIORP, the Student Council- sponsored backwards prom Dec. 5. Dare To Be Stupid was the evening's theme with Bryan Johnson and Angie Bead reigning as king and queen of the most outrageous costume contest. The royalty received gift certificates from Krazy Kris's, of course. Evening activities began with the girls treating their dates to new dining ex- periences, including a meal at Suds y'r Duds, burgers at Hardee's and a candlelight dinner featuring pizza and Coke. Guests then arrived at the middle school gym decorated tastefully in trash by StuCo members. Refreshments were NABS drinks sold by SADD. The dance itself was, according to StuCo President Angie Erpelding, a success. lt's kind of a different dance, so it gives everyone a chance to be PAHTYANIMALS. MORPgoers hamming it up for the camera as they take a pause from dancing are Scott Wissman, Tim Adams, Fernando Tonda, Erica Cocke and Michael Fuentes. lphoto by Becky Brown, print by Lindy Youngl 20 MORP wild.

How many sets of siblings can you match in this sample group of the more than 200 pairs and trios of brothers and sisters both attending Manhattan High? lphoto by Lindy Youngl IHCS hated urna More than 200 sibling sets experience high school scene together Compiled by Amy Turnquist any stresses plague a teen- ar's life: sex, drugs, peers, lege, career choices and hion.

Sandi Taylor had a dif- ferent view. lf the teacher liked her fsenior Kiml, then they like me and the class is easier, but if they didn't like her, they don't like me. The best thing is the teachers tell me stupid things Kim has done. Younger siblings were often spared the agony of riding the bus to and from school by an older brother or sister who didn't always ap- preciate being a chauffeur. Senior Nick Weigel ex- plained that he didn't like having to wait for her lfreshman Mollyl in the mor- nings to give her a ride to school, while sophomore Sara Bennett added, l have to drive her lfreshman Lesliel around, and sometimes our schedules clash.
