Hard Work Pays Gff When it came to science in 1974, Powers' students stood out. Sophomore Mark Bednarski won the Flint Area Science Fair and Sen- ior Terry Ross placed second. The other students who received awards were Diane Jakubowski, Dan Hirn, Mike Boike, and Rick Bar- bier. The speechmakers from Powers also had a successful year. Senior Bonnie Murphy placed sixth in the statewide Voice of Democracy Contest. Ten students received tro- phies in the Optimist Club Oratori- cal Contest. Maryanne Kozyra, Mike Weibel and Dave Rizik were . among the I2 state finalists.

Do Your Qwn Thing Breaking the monotony of six classes a day was once an impossible task. Then Powers spiced up the curriculum with Grub Day. It proved to be a perfect opportunity to express the secrets lurk- ing within us all. A touch of peculiarity triumphed throughout the day. In the course of Grub Day the school was occupied by a multitude of athletes, a host of farmers and a swarm of unmentionablesp not to speak of the score of students who proudly displayed their blue-ieans. A spirit of unification echoed in the halls as each student gained recognition for being the special someone he really is! Each additional Grub Day is welcomed enthusiastically by the student body and even the faculty would admit that Grub Day is certainly a cornucopia of talent!

Competition Spurs Cagers On Competition was tough during Tournament Week at Powers. The classes were at a peak rivalry in their fight to determine the superior grade. The battle was fought in the maze of hallways and the only neu- tral zone was the staircases. Each class chose a theme and carried it into the decorations for their hall. The faculty judges seemed caught in the cross-fire, but they were ste- adfast in their decision that the sen- ior hall was victorious. The seniors captured the title with such charac- ters as Compton Crunch, Reese Krispies, and Walker Wheaties. Hopefully, the hallway competition and high spirits helped spur the Chargers on in their fantastic tour- nament performance.

Jack Ryan proves once again to be a com- petent overseer of events. bottom right: lt's hear no evil for Colette Hawkins as iuniors Shelly Parker and Angie Doyle get involved in the festivities. 80 Activities
