Colorful attire reveals spirit While reversal day seemed to be reserved for the bold, Orange and White Day al- lowed greater numbers to show their school pride. I do this to show my spirit, smiled Mary Clark, with a white plaster painted face decorated with orange lipstick, gives me an opportunity to do things I wouldn ' t usually do, she added. Clark demonstrat- ed her spirit everyday without fail. Although many students felt that en- forcement of the League rules caused a se- rious campening to school spirit during Spirit Week, Clark disagreed, Every- where I look someone is dressed up, she defended. Even if people didn ' t dress up, the majority of the students supported me, stated Clark. It is a lack of willingness to take respon- sibility for making fools of themselves. That ' s why people don ' t dress up, said Clark, picking at her black and orange nails and her feet to and fro swining perch atop a table. While it was usually the senior class that flooded the school with spirit, Clark felt that the sophomores expressed just as much. 24

JmAaZ CC4 4 i c . . I ' m really impressed with the sopho- mores; they dress up and just ignored the juniors and seniors; they aren ' t ashamed to be sophomores, attested Clark. Others felt that spirited people were less evident on campus and that without Spirit Week, school would just be boring. There would not be any excitement for the football game or homecoming without something to get our enthusiasm up, said Lisa Kincaid playfully glancing from a whitened face and tossing her psychedelic orange mop of hair. If we don ' t dress up, how can we have fun? she questioned. And Kincaid was committed to fun. With her orange fish- net tights and color co- ordinated mini skirt, she was known as Orange High ' s Annie. Dressing up wasn ' t the only activity of Spirit Week. After second period, students flocked to the outdoor theatre for the Or- ange and White assembly. Along with the usual tradition of class competition and the introduction of the var- sity football players, there was an addition to the program. With the new trend of break dancing, the ASB cabinet asked Jose Avila, Mike Nigrone, Carlos Vasquez, and Mark Wilson to perform. Students crowded around the dancers and watched with en- thusiasm and appreciation for the difficult manuevers. Greek and Roman Day, which closed the week, offered an opportunity for many more students to come dressed as their fa- vorite centurion or philosopher. Others, however, merely reflected a raid of the family linen closet. Choosing to wrap themselves in a variety of styles ranging from Mickey Mouse patterns to other colorful designer bedsheets, students seemed preoccupied with relying and read- justing their togas. — EKL Orange was the color chosen by most students.
