A Show With a name like Spirit Week it’s obvi- ous that Student Council wanted student involvement. Traditionally in the fall prior to Homecoming, students created new “looks” to correspond with council ideas. The week began with College Day which brought a rousing argument among some English students who drew blood, verbally, over the clash between the green and white and the blue and gold. Backing the Spar- tans, Mike Kolozvari and Bill Brewster debated with Stephen Belair and Jeff Hun- ger who rooted for G of M. Students dis- played the colors and logos of their favorite universities on their tee-shirts and sweatshirts. Freshmen captured the most points. On Tuesday, students decked themselv- Of Spirit es out in their finery. Little used ties were pulled from the bottom of dresser drawers and the back of closets to make their class the “Classiest” on Dress Gp Day. The day tailored to the creative instinct was Hats and Shades, Rock ’n’ Roll Day. For Jamie Langowski that meant role- playing as one of The Blues Brothers. Hen- ry Witherspoon’s light blue hat caught the attention of fishermen who thought a few dangling lures would have perfected it. As a new idea, Student Council added Generic Day and a tribe of black and white clad students filled the halls. Joining in the spirit of participation during Hats and Shades Day, Bill Brewster asks to borrow glasses from Sherrie Kish. Dressed for her number in The History of Rock ' n ' Roll, Mrs. Trapp talked to Mike Card. 18 Spirit Week

Beginning with the tug-of-war against the Freshmen, the Sophomores pulled ahead to victory. Afterwards came the musical Balloon Races, where the object of the game was to pass a balloon from one pair of knees to another before the music stopped. Similar to musical chairs, the stop of the music indicated that one of the par- ticipants was out. The last person left in the circle, a Senior, was the victor. Ending with the final tug-of-war event, the Sophomores once again pulled to the finish, but the overall victory in the Homecoming games belonged to the Seniors. After the games were over, preparation for the dance the next night was in order. For most it meant going out and buying just the right dress, or just the right tux. As tradition went on Queen Amy Tucker danced with Prime Min- ister, Mile Colston. When the festivities came to an end at 11:00, the memories lin- gered along with the discarded streamers and floating balloons.
