DRESS-UP ADD SPIRIT Mike Kasperski and Paula Dunsmore consider themselves prom rejects. “1 hope they let me in class like this, says Junior Diane Dolan. 1 » Sophomore Darlene Fisher seems proud of their “Springy” hall decorations. “Oh, shucks!” says Junior Connie Theresa Lapensee flashes her “child- Dalecki. like” grin. The “Four Seasons” was chosen by the Student Council to be the theme for the 1978-1979 Home- coming Week Competitions. The Seniors, given first choice, took Winter. They placed first in Dress-up and third in Hall compe- titions. The Juniors with their theme of Autumn placed third in Dress-up and second in Hall competitions. The Sophomores, who chose Spring, placed fourth in both the Dress-up and Hall competitions. The Freshmen were given the theme of Summer. They placed second in Dress-up, but received the extra five points for their participation on Blue and Gold Day. They also received first place on their Hall decorations. According to many faculty mem- bers and students the Hall decor- ations were the best in years. Both Student Congress and the students wish to extend their appre- ciation to those teachers who help- ed co-ordinate Hall Decorations and Dress-up. n

A thank-you from the girls goes to the coaches. For the senior class they were Mr. Reygaard, Don Dirven and Sean Marnon. Lee Sopha, A1 Smith and Calvin Gross helped the Junior girls. The sophomore powderpuffers were aided by Reggie Moore and Mike Owens. Class sponsor, Mr. Lesinski, and Kirt Konyha coached the Freshmen girls.
