A smile a day keeps the doctor away? Was that the solution for students at OSHS? Well. maybe it didn't always take the illness away. but a cheery face and a few happy words could add a little sunshine to an otherwise drab and boring day. Looks of happiness. sadness dullness or excitement could all be found at school. There might have been a look of worry resulting from a test that possibly could have used more than the five minutes of study during homeroom. A look of anger could be seen if a locker door accidently slammed on ones finger. Even though there were occasional unhappy faces. fortunately. happy ones out-numbered the unhappy and made the days of school seem to pass by much faster. Is this Fred Astaire and Ginger Rog- ers? No. but Keith Zirlott and Sharon Ramsey dance the night away at the dance held after the Annual Staff's Sweetheart Pageant. Many contes- tants enjoy the chance to wear their gowns to the dance after the pageant is over - for it makes the magic last a little longer. Besides. the guys sure didn't seem to mind! Faces 25

24 Faces Face- ing the Eighties Is this the look of the 80's? Well Mr. Lee appears to be quite proud of his outfit: he has good reason to be. after all, hels showing some of that Grey- hound Pride! uLife is a Cabaret. old chum. come to the Cabaret! The French Club's Caba- ret Night is a festive one. especially when the entertainment includes something like this! Martha Kelly. Zira Small. Sandy Fye. Betsy Rutrough. Kenny Reiter. Angela Wall. Connie Redmann and Amy Firmen all come together for a fantastic grand finale. Betsy Rutrough offers a bright ray of sunshine with her warm smile. Many times when students are together on a trip, smiles such as this are seen on every face. Sherri Ford and Mike Medlin look at the brighter side of life as they en- joy an opportunity to soak up some rays during lunch. The students of- ten flock to the front lawn when the weather is nice. Any break from class is always welcome. but when you can share it with someone. it makes it even better. What goes up must come down. right girls? Evidently this pyramid is not meant to last as the final person leads to its destruction. Laurie Grizzard, Dianne Ettinger, Ethel Edwards. Leslie Durfee. Nancy Harding, Barbara Ho- sey. Michelle Carmichael, Brenda Ds- vis. Amy Walker and Betty Taylor make different faces as the pyramid comes to a halt during first lunch.

A ring of bums - or so it appears as Tommy Reynolds. Tony Lawrence. Leah Leachman. Deidra Anstead. Da- vid Harris. Reese Jordan. and Tony McCourt stand swapping stories in the front of the school. Senior Scrub Day e is very casual. with few lessons in class. Summer? Shelley Dalrymple looks as 8 if she's returning from a day at the $ beach. instead of coming to school after lunch. l surrender! As a blast of water squirts Stephanie Noble's face. she tries to do the same to Bo Hamilton with her squirt gun. Cut-offs. and T-shirts. and army fatigues. Holey ol' tennies. and hats worn at sea. These were a few of my scrub- biest things. A tradition and senior privilege at Ocean Springs High School was Senior Scrub Day. Seniors came to school in everything from Dad's bermuda shorts and army fatigue jacket to white tennis shorts and an Izod. This was one day when shorts were permitted: and. unfortunately. the meaning of Scrub Day was lost to some upperclassmen. as some wore cute short outfits instead of rags. Rowdiness was in the air. as squirt guns were pulled out and used with laughter. After Scrub Day came Senior Dress-Up Day. which was a dras- tic change from Scrub Day. Tux- edos. suits. and dresses appeared in the halls; and an air of sophisti- cation surrounded the seniors. Perhaps it was due to the glimpse of the world outside of high school. Well. at least. they had one last scrub. Look at all this mess in the locker! As school draws to an end. many seniors start emptying their lockers. Tony McCourt. Kenny Hawkins. and Valerie Ba- lius sort through a year's accumulation of junk. 26 Senior Scrub Day
