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.

Hop Hop Hop A flicker, a flame, a light, a shining beacon on which the de¬ serving juniors were ushered into the Beta Club realm before the en¬ tire student body. This was a solemn assembly in which the underclassmen were “tapped” with the shining white symbolic candle and were thus recognized for out¬ standing scholastic achievement. The graveness soon gave way to the true test of a candidate’s char¬ acter as they were forced to hop, run, sing, beg, plead, and other¬ wise humiliate themselves to the delight of the “Mighty Senior Betas!” It was all taken in good stride, though, as the juniors started planning their revenge for next year, just a few months early! Joe Ellis lights his candle and promises to keep the Beta pledge. Burciiett seems slightly surprised when she is tapped Brenda Bass taps Peggy DeBord. ■ Musser. 16
