Panther spirit shown in spring activities i Hundreds of pairs of blue, white, and even striped tennis shoes roamed through the halls on March 25. These sneakers belonged to the students who felt the spirit of the first annual 1971 Tennis Shoe Day. Encouraged by the Student Council, students were asked to show support for the spring teams by wearing their tennis shoes on this day. Spring sports, including tennis, golf, baseball, and track, were honored on April 24, Spring Sports Day. Elected as queen, Christie Schlaegel reigned over the teams as they placed in their re- spective events. For the juniors, spring held extra meani ng. The Junior Prom at the In- diana Roof, was held on May 8 with a theme of 1910-Yesterday. The break- fast following the dance was held at the Dolphin Club and featured the Soul Messengers. Crowned as the king and queen were Jeff Robertson and Jamie Corey. The end of the school year for the seniors brought the excitement of graduating but also the sadness of leaving. On Slop Day seniors came dressed in anything from police outfits to baseball uniforms. 1,123 seniors gathered on June 8 at the coli- seum in caps and gowns to receive their long awaited diplomas. Their final get- together, the Graduation Dance, was held at the Indiana Roof on June 12.
