Eagle Spirit Soars As Homecoming Spirit Mounts Right: Juniors cheer and seniors glare as the battle of classes continues at the Homecoming Pep Rally. Below: Angelia Copelin laughingly begs over-eager Sophomores to be patient. F Above: Your money or your life! Seemingly fierce, Peggy Etheridge's wink gives her away on 20's Day. 8 Activities So many little things alleviated the pressure of school work and enabled a stu- dent to enjoy Northeastem to the fullest: pep rallies, assemblies, sitting in the pit, and decorating for the prom provided the little extra a pupil had to have to add spice to his life! One of the biggest events during the year was Norrtheastem's Tenth Home- coming. October the 27 was a date thought of with great anticipation from the very beginning of football season. Sophomores waited in curiosity, juniors simply savored the prospect of a good time and seniors thought bittersweetly that next year they would be returning as alumni attending their first real homecoming. Homecoming consisted of a week of festivities ranging from the election of the Homecoming Court to Hat Day and Twenties Day. Eagle Spirit was aroused at a Thursday night bonfire and a suspenseful Friday aftemoon pep rally where various contest winners were announced. The Eagle football team, however, was defeated on the gridiron by Bertie, Though their spirits were a bit dampened by the loss, Eagle alumni and students alike boogied on over to the gym for the Homecoming Dance. l I Above: Senorita Liz Jolly takes time out of her siesta to pose for the camera on Hat Day. Right: Poor little Edenton Ace! He has no chance against that miserly Eagle defense.

Contrary to a popular faculty belief, Eagle students did not spend their every waking moment in the pursuit of educa- tion. Indeed, they seemed more bent on the pursuit of happiness. Inside school and Gout on the streetsf, pupils took advantage of every extracurricular oppor- tunity Northeastern and Elizabeth City had to offer. Part of this spirit of fun was encour- aged by the faculty itself. 'gAll work and no play makes Jack a dull boy, and Jack was not bored for long when the school imported acts like the Continental Anny Band from Virginia. Students grooved to the various sounds ofjazz, rock, and soul, but a special tribute to Elvis brought several pupils to their feet, Travolta style! Like they say, weekends were made for . . . er . . . going out with the gang. For one group of students, Pizza Inn was the place to be while other kids liked the of Hardee's or Southgate atmosphere Mall. Some teens preferred dancing to chatting or chompingl' and flashed their I. Dfsw for admittance to spots like the Red Brick Saloon and The Hutfl But, whether they were eating, discoing, ' or just 'gcruisin' in their automobiles, students managed to ufind something to do until Monday morning when they returned to school. If Weekends Were Made For Discoing, Cruising And Grooving Wh Then Those Mondays After? Above: Burn Baby Burn!', Stu- dents cheer with the cheerleaders as they gather to pay their last respects to one of our hated Eagle opponents. Below: Oh me! Does my hand- writing reveal all that'?,' Susan Owens and Sheila Yoder get their handwriting analyzed at South- gate Mall after school. 10 Student Life ,sill I .N Y ,E Below: Foot loose and fancy free, Johney Wise and Susan B 'nes g'jam at the Homecoming Dance.
