HOMECOMING PRINCE TRENT BLACKLEY admirt-s Princess Britan Newhouse as he escorts her off the football field. Britan, being a cheerleader, made a quick change during the second quarter. HE HUNT CONTINUES . . . The traditionally sparse turnout for the pa- rade multiplied at the beginning of the pep rally where Tiger fans gathered at the bon fire. The Band and Football Team members competed in challenging relays. At the conclusion of the pep rally the Choir held a car bash for a fund raiser. The Thursday night bon fire led into the Fri- day morning pep rally where Greg Collins and Mike Knapp dressed up like bums from Moore. With the Tigers in high spirits and ready for the kill it didn't look like anything could stop them. But the halftime score, with Moore in the lead, didn't reflect our eagerness. The football players that were nominated for the royalty were getting fired up in the locker room, while the candidates for Princess and Queen were escorting themselves onto the field, due to confusion in the pressbox. I hurried out of the locker room to escort Paige out onto the field. When I couldn't find her I freaked out! said Paul Behrman. Despite the confusion. Prince Trent Blackley succeeded in crowning Princess Briian Newhouse. The week ended with a victory dance featur- ing Solid State. With band members Bobby Rueda and David Clark being students, even the dance was twice as nice.

-AKE TWO — OR MAYBE THREE Take two. Automatically you think of twins, SRA testing, and Media Productions, right? No? Well the students at NHS did at least. For those of you who walked through the halls and began to think you had double vision”, don't worry! Actually NHS had many sets of twins and at least one set of triplets. Although some of the matched pairs were identical, some were fra- ternal and often not even noticed as being a twin or a triplet. Most people never even noticed that the Blackley's, the triplets, were related. The three seemed to find it strange that hardly anyone ever connected their names and figured it out. The funniest thing that happens to us is when a teach- er has all three of us in her class, and finally around the middle of the year she'll ask us if we're cousins.” said Trent Blackley, the only boy of the three. Another interpretation of take two” was very familiar to the juniors. Everyday during the SRA tests they heard their teacher's voice, Take two 2 pencils with you.” While the seniors were at home, cozy in bed, the juniors were getting up at 6 o'clock in the morning in order to make it to school on time for their eleventh year of testing. I'm just glad it's finally over. It's going to be great next year when we can sleep in and the juniors have to get up and go take tests all morn- ing.” said Paul Behrman. “Take two” had still another meaning to the students in Media Productions. It usually meant a second chance to improve and redo, but not this time. This time, to the class' surprise, there would be no re-take. Their practice shot” would be aired on channel 8 for everyone to view. Take two” may have puzzled some, but NHS students knew exactly what it meant. IN A RARE MOMENT. Ch:. and B: n TV- one of NHS’ sets of twins, are caught together before going their separate ways for the day. ARRIVING AT SCHOOL TOGETHER not uncommon lor Keith and Kevin Morren. The fact that they were twins didn't cause anger or fights. Instead, they were great friends and were often found together dunng the year. student£kife
