Books. Pencils. Teachers. Studyhall. What could be worse? How could the average joe Student make the best of this situation? Would the next four years of his life be filled with this academic drudgery? Of course not, Joe! How could anyone ignore the Homecoming ac- tivities? Or the many clubs and or- ganizations? How could a single high school student concentrate ONLY on school? Impossible! Don’t even worry Joe! We’ll bring you Back to Life! Riding in the Homecoming Parade, Cheer- leaders and friend show the spirit of student life, (sitting) Sheila Brenton, Beth Fistler. Kathi Knox, Sheryl Bowie (standing) Sandy Coats.
