The sport of rodeo involved people from all parts of the country competing for money, awards and satisfaction. Season changes did not affect the number of rodeos. Cowboys and cowgirls competed at rodeos in heat, rain, snow and ice. As soon as one season finished, the next season began. The association members' demand for the sport determined the seasons. The Oklahoma High School Rodeo Associa- tion sponsored rodeos in various cities across Oklahoma. Many contestants found themselves in Poteau one day and Stillwater the next. At the end of the season, qualifiers competed at the state competition in Guthrie. After points from throughout the year and the state finals were tallied, the top four state winners in each event joumeyed to national competition between qualifiers from 43 states and two Canadian provinces in Rapid City, South Dakota during the summer. To excel at the sport, each participant had to train both mentally and physically. They also had to obtain money for entry fees, equipment, gas, lodging and food for themselves and their livestock. Events included bareback bronc riding, breakaway roping, calf roping, barrel racing, saddle bronc riding, goat tying, steer wrestling, team roping, pole bending, bull riding and cut- ting. Bull riding is my favorite, it takes a lot of determination and I have to expect the unex- pected, said junior Robert Brown. Every chance I get, I try to go. The OHSRA was just one of many rodeo associations available to students. Although the association was not school-sponsored, students had to maintain their grades and conduct in school to become members. By competing at youth rodeos, students were able to demonstrate their talents in front of friends, family, fans and college scouts. I think itls a good place to get experience and help get a scholarship in rodeo, said junior Lynn Burrough.

Agnew RONNIE SL ELAINE SMITH OWNER 8a MANAGER Longer lunches are better because you have more time and you're not rushed. - junior Toni Carpenter asting Longer and Costing ore With an extra thirty-minutes added to the students' day, lunch periods were expanded and divided into two 45 minute periods, This gave the student body more opportunities for off- campus dining. I like to go off campus so l can be with my friendsg we get a chance to visit for longer than just five minutes, like between classes, said junior Lonnie Donica. With the population of Moore at 45,000 and growing, students enjoyed choosing from a wide variety of eating establishments. The places students chose to go depended upon price, quality of food, service, speed and atmosphere. I go where there are a lot of carsg that way I get a chance to see more of my friends and we can socialize, said junior Brenda James. One of the biggest factors in selecting a restaurant was prices. Parents provided some in- come for lunches, but the meals one chose were often more expensive. t'My lunch sometimes mns me as much as S5 a day, said senior Michelle Scott. If getting enough money or not having a car was a problem, second choices for dining in- cluded the Youth House, school cafeteria, student store or a student's own home. At one time during the school year, the extra fifteen minutes allotted to the students were almost taken away due to excessive tardies after lunch. The students subsequently improved their attendence and no changes were made. inally, Dessert! Senior Lisa Moates finishes off her dessert. the ending to a perfect meal.
