opening s happen '19 we make great thi N P Indian chief Pat Kimball gives his sermon in Mrs. Jack Winfrey's Thanksgiving special. Dances encourage cirticipotion During the basketball sea- son, participation was low and fans were scarce. Coach Mike Long decided that something should be done, so after asking stu- dents in his Plane Geometry classes what they thought could bring more people to the home games, the main reply was dances. As a result, Coach Long pro- posed a dance to be after every home basketball game to boost enthusiasm. The only catch to this idea was finding an interested club or organization to sponsor them. On October 26, Mr. Ernest J. Ott visited to discuss the uge of Paris High's own rented area aboard NASA'S space shuttle. He mentioned several experiments that could be used. He Iso encouraged students to use their minds and imagina- tions in the concoction of experiments to be used on the spacecraft in 1980 or 1981. Encouraging spirit and cooperation along with thinking of the future were ways that students here Made Great Things Happen.

Participation 1 was on upswing Stricter rules made stu- dents give the needed respect to their teachers. With this respect, the teach- ers received more class- room participation. Club sponsors noticed more club participation also. More and more members began to realize that the sponsors of their club had put a lot of extra time into the activity. Just for them. Participation was on the upswing. A new dimension was added to the halftime enter- tainment. The Blue Blazes Band literally transformed into a modern corps style marching band. The new blue and silver uniforms put that finishing touch to their productions. Under the leadership ofa new director, the band, Blazettes, and a new rifle corps produced pride on the faces of Paris people. This and the winning foot- ball teams. For the first time in nine years they had a win- ning record. Participation, transformations, and win- ners encouraged us to make great things happen.
