Check us out! On Tuesday evening, October 23. Plainfield Junior-Senior High School came alive for a night. The halls that by day were filled with typical teenagers were that night filled with typical teenage parents. This was Open House. Foreign language clubs sponsored refresh- ments which were representative of their various countries. The choirs and bands en- tertained visitors in the auditorium through- out the evening. Parents saw the class- rooms and teachers their kids visited at the same time every school day, and saw the facilities available to the students. Brian Livingston gazes over all the exotic dishes available on the foreign language table At the end of the evening most people came away with a good feeling. The parents felt they knew their kids a little better, and the kids felt as though the parents could relate better now that they had an idea of what their school was really like. All in all the event was a great success.

Almost Anything Goes! “Almost Anything Goes was the only name broad enough to encompass the bi- zarre variety of things that happened on April 19 in the PHS gym. This chapter in the Clash of the Classes was re-instituted after a long hiatus. Freshmen, sophomores, ju- niors, seniors, and faculty pitted them- selves in fierce competition. The obstacle course included crawling under tables, drib- bling a basketball around pylons, and riding a skateboard to the finish line. Also includ- ed was the maypole-pyramid contest, which tested the mental abilities of each team. The evening sped along as each team competed in butt-ball, football-basketball, tug-of-war. and the 3-legged race. Not to be forgotten was the highlight of the evening, the pie-throwing contest. Mr. Conley served as expert judge, and senior Web Van Tryon's “smear of band director Mr. Brad Cooper was judged best. When the night came to a close, the faculty emerged victo- rious. followed by the sophomores, juniors, freshmen, and seniors. Thanks to enthusi- astic participation from all teams and the wonderful emcee Mr. Conley, the evening was full of laughs and hilarious moments to remember for a long time. Student Life 29
