WHILE ATHLETES ADMIT to enioying the varied types of publicity they received Stuart Newburg appears to almost display modesty at the special banner prepared for him. Sigma Gamma was often seen in the waking hours of the morning on Fridays putting up similar banners and posters for the Mustangs. Sandy Craig and Susan Hare delight in this particular effort for Newburg.

The breakfast featured orange juice, milk, and donuts, with a candle to add decore. We stole the idea from some sophomores, Susan Murray admitted, but she thought it was all right.

Dollars buy cheers Game Days Continued from page 206 ferent junk to do every week so it wasn't boring, said Beth. Boozie and Beth once attempted a kidnapping but it was unsuccessful. We tried to kidnap him at 4:30 a.m. but he wasn't home so we went over to John Schumackeer's house Lhis best friendj. Unfortunately, the girls could not get in the house. Along with cookies and cakes. Boo- zie and Beth also gave Sid pacifiers and diapers, because of his nickname Baby Womack. One other unusual incident was the time Boozie and Beth stole some of Sid's shirts and pants and wore the baggy clothes on game day that week. Boozie and Beth estimated that they spent 5150 on Sid, sometimes spending S20 a weekend on just wrapping his house. We did everything for him, said Beth. Both Boozie and Beth enjoyed being a Samm for Sid. It was a blast. We rowled them up. According to Beth. how much fun you had depended on the guy you got. One of the best uwrapjobs' done on the school, according to many students was the Spring Branch game when the Samms wrapped it. Virtually covered in red and white. streamers and posters covered the school giving it an appearance of a huge colored tent. Many of the Samms stayed up decorating the school that night until ll:l5. J'AIDES OUTPOWER J .V. J OCKS J'aides President Elise Coleman said that most of the J'aides wrapped their player's rooms, brought them cookies and cakes, and wrapped their desks and lockers all football season. Elise's group of five girls bought their football player. Ben Hart, a shirt at Print-a-Shirt that said J.V. Stud. According to Elise, one of the funni- est things they did for Ben was the kid- napping. We kidnapped Ben and four other guys and took them to Interna- tional House of Pancakes. Every girl was nominated. We took the top three and we voted on them, she said. The jocks, with lipstick smeared on their lips, were forced to sing for the J'aides. The girls then took them to the school. Along the way a policeman stopped them. After Karen Ramsey explained the situation they w'ere allowed to go on. We played football then. They were trying to outshow us, but we beat themf, said Elise proudly. ' Elise thinks that the jocks appreci- ated their work. They never tell you but you walk by and hear them talking. you know they dof' she said. Looking around at the wrap job at the school. one Junior Varsity jock said, The thing that's so neat is when you see your name in three feet letters across the front of the school. Cee Cee Connely, also in J'aides. said, They never say anything about it but they get upset if you don't do any- thing. ROLL OUT THE RED CARPET Sigma Gamma is the only spirit group that is allowed to wrap houses and, according to President Karen Pro- venzano, they wrapped a lot of Varsity football players' houses. Karen esti- mated that each group of girls wrapped their guy's house about three times dur- ing the football season. One evening, according to Sigma Gamma member Susan Beamon, about 20 girls went out and wrapped 4 houses. Using about 90 rolls of toilet paper on one house a night, Susan said it got expensive. The six Sigma Gamma girls that wore the shirts with Clay's Classy Chassis printed on the back gave Sen- ior Clay McMordie a dinner one Fri- day night. He liked it a l0t: said Susan Beamon. Approximately 180 girls were in Sigma Gamma. Groups of six girls were assigned to each Varsity Football player. Each group was assigned to one game and they'd get together with four other groups and do a two or three minute skit during that pep rally, said Karen. Karen's group tried to do ingenious things such as wrapping Ed Womack's house outside as well as inside. They gave him a dinner, wrapped his locker and car, and even brought him donuts in the mornings. - Because of a new gym floor, during pep rallies, Varsity Football players had to sit between Sigma Gamma and the Wranglers on the bleachers instead Continued on page 210
