At the home of Karen and Allison Andrews, both new Markettes, the sen- iors set off a burglar alarm when they entered the house. Sophomore Holly Micklewright said. A group of us were pulled in Rhonda Sands' pickup truck. If We didnlt sing the spirit song they'd shoot us with a water pistol. It was hilarious. Breaking out of tradition this year. was the senior kidnapping. Pointing out that it was very unorganized. Jun- ior Catherine McClesky said it was thought up and carried out hastily. Catherine's group kidnapped Seniors Suzy Caraway, Kim Gantt, and Bar- bara Reilly. We kidnapped them around 4:30 a.m. and brought them flowers. We woke them up by blowing whistles and we put bandanas around their faces. Then we took them to St. Cecila's and made them do routines on top of the car, said Catherine. The girls were then taken to the church parking lot where they took part in relay races. The Markettes finally settled at Jun- ior Julie McDougal's house for break- fast. The band usually had its banquet toward the end of the year. The pur- pose of the banquet, according to Sen- ior Billy Cohn, is to announce and elect new officers, give out gag awards. and provide a good meal and good enter- tainment. The band also has a Christ- mas party every year. On December I7. the band congregated at Senior Sara Harwell's house to celebrate. Everyone picks names and you go out and buy a gag gift for that person. Someone dresses up as Santa Claus. This year it was Dirk Silva. and he gives out presents. Then we give it all to charity, like a guy gets a baby doll that would be good for a small girl, said Cohn. Band Sweetheart Janet Hacker was elected at the last game.
