Tennis shoes, pigtails, and some of the zaniest hats you ever saw. Sound familiar? Well, think again — it ' s school SPIRIT week, of course! The whole school sparks up morale through pep sessions and tennis shoe days. For the sake of school spirit even the faculty contributes their humorous touch to the first pep session of the year — Homecoming. Of course, school spirit is a lot eas- ier to arouse if the team is winning, but now and then we must force ourselves to grin and bear it. After all, as a wise man once said, SOMEBODY has to lose! Whenever the Fighting Panthers are dragging behind in a game, what keeps the players going, and fires the souls of the spectators? Cheerleaders! What is that mysterious thing that keeps the whole student body toge ther? SPIRIT! Whipping around the corner in the bunny suit is Claire Hinkle. All right! Let ' s go! This crowd is really behind the team.

JTRAFFIC The school buses get the students to school, well sometimes. Better late than never. Towing is a big pain to kids, especially when they see their cars being towed by as they sit in math class. Parking lots are no longer just the black-tops with yellow and white lines they were once meant to be. The N.C. lots take on a variety of other duties, among these of being a driving range for prospective golfers, a field for band practices, and an obstacle course for students fighting ice and snow in win- ter. However, some of the lots serve N.C. above and beyond the call of duty. During the summer, for instance, two drivers ' ed students became more interested in watching a plane than in driving. They then proceeded to make their own driving course — by going through some guidewires and knock- ing out all of the lights in the stadium! With all this action taking place, it ' s a wonder the lots don ' t Crack Up.
