To the Cougars. . .It’s Beating the Rebels. Popcorn, confetti, and a winning team brought Varsity Football officially into sea¬ son Friday, September 6, when the Oakton Cougars beat the Fairfax Rebels with a score of 26-22. This was the first big event of the school year. Everyone who came was anxious for Oakton to make a good showing against Fair¬ fax. Competition was steep and tension in the stands rose, as Fairfax pulled out in front the first half. The tension was eased during half time as the Drill Teams from both schools per¬ formed a dual routine. This was a first in the history of Oakton and it proved to be a very entertaining performance. The Cougars ral¬ lied the second half to bring Oakton its first victory of the season. 13

To the Freshmen . . . Directions and a Map Mixed emotions arrived Friday, August 31, with some 600 freshmen who attended the pro¬ gram of orientation. Early Friday morning, buses and cars began unloading uncertain freshmen, some anxious to get back to school and renew old acquaintances, others sorry to see the sum¬ mer end so quickly, but still curious enough to get a preview of what Oakton had to offer. Luckily the freshmen had little trouble fol¬ lowing the crowds to the auditorium where their orientation began. An indication of the class spirit became apparent as the Drill Team and Cheerleaders led the new class in some of the more popular cheers. After the assembly, sched¬ ules were distributed and the freshmen began their first year at Oakton High School.

Homecoming 1975 When our students got to school on Friday October 18 Homecoming Day, they were greeted with brightly deco¬ rated halls. The Cheerleaders, Majorettes and Drill Team had spent the previous afternoon and evening decorating the halls and cafeteria. The first event of the day was a spirit march through the halls during homeroom. The school day ended with a surge of spirit at a sixth period pep rally The classes got it all together” by exhibiting tremen¬ dous school, rather than class, spirit. That evening, during pre-game, the Drill Team and Majorettes displayed some of their finest talents. The Cheerleaders, composed of all three squads, kept the Oakton fans yelling in support of their team. The highlight of the day came at halftime when the actual Homecoming ceremonies began. The Junior class won the float competition with a slogan of: Even Old Ladies Can Stomp Saxons,” and a very large shoe depicting victory over the Saxons. Lisa Rentschler was crowned queen for 19 7 4-75 Homecoming, following the traditional motor¬ cade of the court around the track. 14
