AN 0 E R X W C E H G A 1 N A G N E Every year MHS is fortunate enough to receive an ex change student. This year we have two. Lena Hamnes is one of these students. Lena is from Digermulen in Lofoten, Norway. Lena arrived at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Roger Cornelius on August 17, and plans to be leaving in mid-sum- mer. Lena likes McConnellsburg be- cause it is safe and everyone knows everyone else. In school, her favorite class is Ad- vanced Chemistry, although she likes all her classes. In her spare time, Lena enjoys listening to music, reading, and running around with her friends. Lena was also the first girl at MHS to play soccer. She also is involved in basketball, track, band, and chorus. MHS is pleased to have Lena be a part of the Class of 88.” Everyone would probably say that she was a CLASSIC experience. Smile Lena! 28 Foreign Exchange

As May I, 1987 rolled around, the words on every- one's mind were The Glory of Love. The prom was a unique experience for the Class of 88 to do. But when the time drew near, everyone came together as a whole class with a team effort. The five candidates for Prom Queen were: Melanie Brumbaugh. Judy Kerlin, Jen- nifer Reed. Christy Seville, and Dixie Carbaugh Sheets. At the hour of 10:00 p.m., the tension was building and ex- citement was in the air. As that final and determining moment became a reality for Miss Dixie Carbaugh Sheets, as she was named the 1987 Prom Queen. As the seniors look back with fond memories of the Prom of 87, there are many events that are remembered by all as a classic time of our lives. 30 Prom
