Page 20 text:

The student body of Mountain View began to fill the bleachers of the gym. Elbow room was not a thing to be expected. Everyone's spirit ran high, including the sophomores, who finally felt like they were part of the school. In the Hello Assembly thejun- iors and seniors helped the student council humiliate the sophomores. This was done by putting down their clothes, food, transportation, music, and last but not least, their atti- tudes. Sophomore Sara CDeBaca said it didn't really bother her that much, because it was something that they do every year and when the sophomores are juniors and become seniors they will probably do the samef' Not all assemblies were alike, That's a TEN -- These spirited seniors show their scores for the new Junior Varsity Cheerleaders perfomance of a routine at the first assembly. The Rabbit Drag -- A the Mesa High School pep assembly. seniors Duke Rottweiler and Darron Gillespie show how psyched-up they are. but the effect on the crowds always seemed to be the same. The cheers, chants and shouts from the crowd let everyone know the true school spirit that was found at Mountain View. Several skits and games took place during each assembly. During the first assembly the student council put on a skit called Family Feud. This was done by having the members of student council split up into three teams, each team representing a class. Each class was asked several questions, and it was to answer to the best of its ability. The seniors took first, juniors second, and last but not least the sophomores. Another event was the Shoe Hunt. The student council chose several students from each class and made them take their shoes off. Then the shoes were placed at the other end of the gym. A mad scramble ensued with each person running to find and put on his or her shoes, but of course the results were the same. The only thing senior Lynde Austin could think was, 'gWhere are my shoes? I have to find my shoes. In the second assembly, rabbit season opened. While the crowd cheered for our football team, little stuffed jackrabbits tied on ropes were being battered all around, but the highlight was a tiny jackrabbit being dragged behind a little pink re- mote control car owned by Duke Rottweiler. At the third assembly two spir- ited Torols, Ken Henderson and Darron Gillespie, donned their cheerleading outfits with their daz- zling, long underwear, and assisted the varsity cheerleaders in a spirit- boosting cheer and pyramid. Ken and Darron also impressed the crowd with their handstands and cart- wheels. Along with the skits and dances Homecoming invitations were being brought about through serenades and signs.
