Spirit Weele replaces homecoming We're just here to do the All-State Shuffle. This chant was heard through- out the gym at the pep assembly Friday topping off a fun-filled Spirit Week,Feb. 3-7. Although Student Council had only two weeks in which to organize the weeks' activities, they turned out extremely well according to the officers. Dress-up days were planned, bulletin boards and doors were decorated, and a 'Surtin Scene' dance was held after the game on Friday night. Spirit Week took the place of what used to be Basketball Homecoming. Faculty Senate said we couldn't have a Home- coming for basketball because other schools didn't have one, and participation was down last year, claimed ASB Vice- President Sarah White, But then they said they wanted something for the winter sports, so we planned Spirit Week. The week began on Monday with Stuffed Animal Day. Many students brought their teddy bears and other child- hood toys. The week continued with 50's dayg T-Shirt, Hat, and Button Dayg Night Life Dayg and Sports Day on Friday. Activities also included a spirit stick search, and class counts at the boys' basketball game on Tuesday and at the wrestling match on Saturday. Friday night, the boys' basketball team suffered a disappointing 63-64 loss to West Linn. After the game, the junior class put on a dance in the cafeteria. The dance was really great! com- mented junior Heather Brower. It was really fun and well-organized. The dance was done by Milhi's own Ninja Sound. Since Spirit Week took the place of Homecoming it was much calmer. According to Treasurer Renee Anderson, If this had been homecoming, we would have had a court and a parade, and the whole week would have been much more intense.

Victorious game tops homecoming Highlighted by dress-up days, comp- etitions, class courts, and the annual parade, Fall Homecoming Week was capped by the 42-6 win over Clackamas. The theme was Be True to Your School. ' ' It was chosen because of its pos- itive tone. We thought it would be bet- ter to build ourselves up instead of putting another school down, said ASB President Kelly VanderHouwen. Participation in Homecoming activities increased greatly from previous years. Dress-up days found more people par- ticipating, and also, more people came to the many activities planned for the week. ASB Secretary Steph Lyons commented, There was student, teacher, and com- munity involvement. It was great! Teacher involvement had never been at the peak level it was during Home- coming. They dressed-up, and partici- pated in the parade. The secretaries medical team entry was great, said VanderHouwen. Dress-up days were more successful also. I think because of the simple themes it was easier for people to dress- up. Color Day brought in the most people, said Lyons. The days included Rambo Day, Ha- waiian Day, Nerd Day, Color Day, and finally the traditional Maroon and Gold Day. The annual parade through Milwaukie had two more floats involved. We en- couraged every organization to enter a float, stated VanderHouwen. Since this was possibly the last year the parade would be held because of community feedback, students were very conscien- tious of litter. There were no negative comments at all from the community, concluded VanderHouwen. With a spirited pep assembly rounding off the school week, students returned that night to watch the varsity football team gain a victory over Clackamas. Copy by April Cooke Football Homecoming
