Whether the injuries were slight or major, the squad was without a member, handicapping their perform- ance. While the cheerleaders chant- ed and cheered, the maniacs ran through the crowd acting crazy to help boost spirit. aising the dead. Senior Paula Krob cheers at a rally. Students became more active through assemblies. Unlike the icheerleaders, the maniacs only expected crazi- ness from their members. No tryouts deemed necessary for the choosing of crowd motiva- tors and friendly help. I like to be in the maniacs because I like to get radicalf' senior Carson Lynch said. Although as different from each other as the two groups seemed, both attempted to motivate spirit. Without pep- filled cheers and crazy antics, the teams could not perform with a winning attitude.

NTHEG Girls' State was a good experience to learn about America, yourselfand government. The best thing was our city because it was unified like one great big family and you ,alwavahad scimebodyfojralk cn.

The Freedom the Myriad ConventioniiCQenter in Oklahoma City attempted to make the students of Mr. Eugene Earsomls honors gov- ernment class more aware of the privileges afforded them by the doctrines of liberty that their country was founded upon. It was really exciting to see the kids who will lead our country in a few yearsf' junior Mary Camey said. They dis- cussed problems and solutions to those problems that I wasn't even aware of. I was really im- pressed with the motivation of the youth there? A Model United Nations con- vention sponsored by the University of Oklahoma allowed interested students to participate in activities similar to those conducted at the U.N. in New York City. This created a chance to actually experience nego- tiations between Hcountriesl' and taught the importance of compromise and diplomacy. A CloseUp Oklahoma trip gave students the opportunity to explore the intricacies of gov- ernment at the state level. Spending four days at the capitol, senior Giang Vo and juniors Ianet Kim, Lana Eades, Lora Duncan, Iocelyn Barton and Donnie Stephens observed the legislative and court sys- tems in action and met with Governor Henry Bellmon. CloseUp Oklahoma really made me excited about our state, Donnie said. Now I donit think that our government is boring at all. Students and sponsors also journeyed to the national Capitol with the CloseUp Wash- ington D.C. program. Seniors Ieani Reich, Tracey Besse, jennifer Womack, Angela Armer and Derek Ha- worth viewed Congress in ses- sion and visited many of the fa- mous monuments that the U.S. Capitol is known for. a+.One academic event, the I is Citizen Beef, 'featured questions over the social sciences and Americana and imitated the age-old spelling bee. 'Each high school in six areassent the top three winners from its high school to one of the regional competi- tions. I1I'I1lQ1 s Ron Parker, Donnie Stephens and jocelyn Barton won the school-wide competition and participated in the regionals. Students answered questions dealing with the United States, its history, government and development. 'lI've always liked history and government, Ron said. I'm glad that I won because it proves to me that what I'm interested in is worthwhile. Many students knew nothing about the different activities that the social studies depart- ment offered. Boys' and' Girls' States allowed those who participated to learn while doingv about state and local government. The American Legion Auxiliary sponsored Deborah Ballard, Melissa Stanley, Robyn Ruhl, Lora Duncan, jocelyn Barton and Kim Ford, partici- pants in Girls' State. Boys' Staters Steve Bolton, Paul Black, William Davis, Kirk DePriest, Iason Frederick, Lance Howard, Mike Powers, Price Rogers and Ronnie Short loaded themselves onto a bus and traveled to Miami, Okla. to take part. I really didn't know about these things, senior Kristi Fogleman explained. I think it's a really good idea. It will probably get everyone more in- terested in history and govern- ment. These extracurricular activi- ties helped students to realize that note-taking involved only one aspect of history and gov- ernment. Competitions and ex- cursions allowed students to reach their full potential and learn more than just book know- ledge. E 44 join in the Fun
