T I College Career Night We come, the seniprs and the juniors alike, to probe into our own futures. We come to look ahead as to what we will be doing after graduation, and to find what col¬ lege or occupation suits our per¬ sonal desires. But mostly we come to ask questions, to “feel” places and people out, and to explore a small part of what new or exciting experiences lie out there in “THE WORLD!” College Career night is not the only special thing that takes place, as a whole week, American Educa¬ tion Week, is set aside so teachers, students, and people from all parts of education, can be rewarded for outstanding achievement, can dis¬ cuss ways to improve ways of get¬ ting involved! 13

Now, smile . . . Smile. They came! They came in hoards, packs, droves, occasion¬ ally in homerooms, but rarely in any semblance of order. They still arrived hov ever and were recorded and again resumed their former state. Then ill-fitting blouses, crooked ties, and unmanageable hair did not slow this process as each person was consumed by the glowing lights for a brief second of eternity. And they still came, all the classes, alike, with down payments, or lost receipts, or maybe a name that no one could hope to spell correctly. So, as the complaining about frills on a blouse, or the color of a shirt, or the feel of a coat floats from the front of the school, and teachers complain about “time lost from class,” you just know pictures are being made. . pretty Frank! Senior boys argue over who is going to wear what bow-tie. For the one thousandth time Mark McCloud tells the girls where to change blouses. ■ I » Homeroom . . . Name . . . Are you going to pay? 12

Students from almost every class and club in the school participated in the Variety Show ranging from the can-can to Squattie Botties, to cereal bowls, to the Freak Brothers. Then the laughter ceased as the seniors concluded the show with the Alma Mater. But this was not near the end of Homecoming as students tromped down to the lower parking lot where spirit flamed around a blazing bon¬ fire. Everyone seemed to burn with the spirit while kicking and chant¬ ing around the fire to the music of ihe Pep Band. Then came the ballgame and another sweet victory as the Hurri¬ canes defeated the Tazewell Bull¬ dogs 28-8. Ivy Medley also tasted victory of another flavor as she was crowned Homecoming Queen. Saturday night topped Home¬ coming 73 off as students boogied to the music of Southern Comfort. The Homecoming Court was again honored and everyone danced Homecoming 73’s Boogie with Big Red into the past. A blazing bonfire heightened spirit for the coming game.
