Following an opening round win over Buena in their first match, however, optimism among team members was running high. Little did they know that was to be their only win until late in the sea- son when they beat St. Gregory at the Amphi meet in Tucson. According to senior Joey Varger, inexperience was the problem. “We had a lot of young players and the few experienced people we had were forced to play higher board posi- tions.” “We were totally outclassed” added the Knights top player, David Annis. “Some members found them- selves playing much higher-ranked opponents. It was kind of like Miami taking on San Francisco in the Super Bowl.” At the end of the season, Joey Yarger won a medal for being the best player in his division at the Re- gion IV individual chess tournament held in Tucson. 12-Seniors Chess Team

Seniors try to revive traditions Trying to revive some of the old MHS pride and traditions, the class of ’85 held a freshman orientation day in January. “We’ve had trouble getting the freshmen to do anything all year,’’ complained student body president, Callie Maldonado. “Some have just been unwilling to participate while others are too embarrassed to do any- thing.” To demonstrate to the freshmen what spirit is all about, members of the senior class presented several skits having to do with participation, how to run a class meeting, and how to show spirit at pep assemblies. “One of the skits demonstrated the correct and incorrect way to hold a class meeting,” explained senior class president Carol Mena. “We also tried to show the freshmen how they look at pep assemblies and why they need to show more spirit.” Were the skits well received? “The freshmen seemed to enjoy them,” commented one of the participants, Marc Ruedas. “We hope they’ll get more involved as a class now.” The seniors hoped they were start- ing a new tradition when they origi- nated a “Custodian Appreciation Day”. Each of the custodians was presented with a “You Are Appreci- ated” button and a corsage. They were also served cake by members of the Student Council. “It was great to see the custodians recognized for the good job they do,” remarked Mr. Glodis. On “Hat and Shades Day” during Spirit Week. Jacqueline Cooper appears to have been someone’s target. With maracas in hand. Joey Yarger demonstrates the rumba at a pep as- sembly.
