The freshman float takes a spin around the football field during halftime ceremonies of the Homecoming game. Princess candidates Jenny Cokain, Kay New- kirk. and Alison Oanton await the beginning of the Homecoming parade. Class Officers: President, Brian Swift; Trea- surer, Stacey Peters; Secretary. Mary Ann Faulkner; Vice-president Brad Kirchoff. Surprised and happy, Alison Clanton accepts congratulations from Jenny Cokain as she is announced Sophomore Princess. The Class of 1981 faced many changes this fall. This was the first year that freshmen were included as part of the senior high and with their new status came new privileges. They gained access to the Quaker Lounge during study hall although a few opted for the smoking area in- stead. They held their first class elec- tions and assumed seats on the Stu- dent Council for the first time. The freshmen also participated in Homeocming activities for the first time. They worked hard and their ef- fort gave the upperclassmen some stiff competition.

The freshmen began working on their float under a handicap-many didn't even know how to make flowers. That didn't stop them! As soon as their officers were elected they be- gan making plans for their entry in the Homecoming competition. The Daum's offered their barn as a building site and construction began. Working outside, they got cold but they didn't quit! And when parts of their float got rained on, they took them apart and did them again. Finally finished, the freshman float was driven proudly into place in the Homecoming parade line-up. Stitching on letters lulie Burdsall, Marla Wing- ler, and Becky 8rowning put the finishing tou- ches on the spider cape. Using lots of paint LeAnn Arnold, Mark Daum, Nancy Taylor, and Mary Ann Faulkner create a blue cape for their Red Prider spider. Absorbed in their work, Alecia Green, Dotty Green, and Connie Jackson fold and fluff tissue flowers for the freshman float. With yarn and aluminium foil, freshmen line up to weave and wrap the spider web for their first Homei oming float. 12
