In Pursuit of . . . SPIRIT Spirit Week is always one of the most memorable weeks at MHS. The week of 1984 was no exception! It began with the traditional best dressed contestg this year's costumes were truly super! Nerds, people in pyjamas, the Mackenzie Brothers - you name it, MHS had it that week. The assembly Friday was one of the most creative in recent memory: the crowning of queen Tena Nelson, and of course, the unforgettable MHS Spartan Busters . The class of 1985 wore matching t-shirts to echo their theme for float and skit. At the annual parade, the Sophomores, with their first taste of float building, placed second with Wardogs Eat Spartan Meatn. The Junior float, which won the contest, exhibited their knowledge of animal lore with Skunk the Spartans . But the climax to the week was, of course, the football game. The hard work of the team paid off with the Wardogs winning 27-8. The dance that followed topped off one of the more interesting Spirit Weeks in MHS history. 6 The vault.

In Pursuit of . . . Sun, un and the Opposite Sex Summertime - and the living is easy for most Wardogs. Although summer is the time for increasing hours at a normally after-school job, there is still time for play both within and without the city. The lake - that cool, inviting spot that refreshes - is the place to be, with skiing, swimming and fishing favorite pastimes. The city pool, where one goes to see and be seen by just about everyone, is another site for the most important summer pursuit, the perfect tan. Vacations, from Maine to the Grand Canyon, occupy many families. And camps - band, debate, Girl Scout, even church - give Wardogs an opportunity to learn new skills and develop talents while escaping the familiar faces of home for a week or two. The pursuit of summer is a welcome change after the arduous school year, but by September the gang is ready to haunt the halls s , 1 Q ,- of MHS once again.
