LYNN USRY: BUILDING m A KS AN EASY TASK by Lynn Usry B uilding a float is not as easy as one may think, just ask the se¬ niors. It requires at least one carpenter, a couple of design¬ ers, several “body builders”, a garage lender, but most of all, many and I do mean many, flower makers. Although there were only a few truely dedicated seniors who helped every day, there were many who participated in the making of the flowers. Even some teachers cooper¬ ated by allowing a few minutes in class for flower “fluffing”. The float committee met every day after school at 3:30, and even worked on the weekends. For the most, quitting time was 5:30, but again, there were a couple who worked on through the rest of the evening. Without those extra hours, the float would have never been fin¬ ished by the day of the parade. Yes, it took a lot of dedication and a tremendous amount of hard work. Even so, it proved to be worth every minute of it, because, on October 8, when the float rolled down Mellen Street in the Phoebus Day Parade, the seniors had something to be proud of!! John Thomas, Paul Begansky, David Fahrenk- rug and Phil Hunt spent most of their spare time making flowers for the float. Every now and then others, including sophomores and juniors would come by and lend a hand. Lynn Usry, John Thomas, and Helen Sadler are putting the finishing touches on the Phan¬ tom Their efforts won the senior class $75 for the best float. 15 Float
