Two-assembly talent show raises money The annual sophomore talent show was held in a different manner this year. Instead of having just one show, two shows were held because there was not enough room in the girl's gym to hold the entire student body at once. The show was sponsored by the sophomore class in an effort to raise money for the prom. The major emphasis in this year's show was on musical performances. All acts dealt with music in one form or another. The show included rock groups, break dancers, individual singers, dancers and imitations of Prince and Van Halen. Before the end of the show, Hugh Lewis from 24 Action News joined Glen- da Bolt, president of Students Against Driving Drunk, and Sam Todd, the club sponsor, for a presentation on the dangers of drinking and driving. Glenda gave an emotional talk about her brother's death due to a drunk driver, which not only brought tears to her eyes but also those of several other students. After the show, SADD members passed out Contracts For Life to the student body. Chris Smith, senior, sings a song he wrote and dedicated to his girlfriend Hope Carter, freshman. 4 Glenda Bolt, sophomore, and Sam Todd, SADD sponsor, deliver the 'tDon't drink and drive message to the students. Senior cheerleaders Shelley Kruemcke, Cindy Olson, Meg Barbini and junior cheerleaders Laura Duke and Sandra Hrna wonder if their per- formance was a success. 14 Student Life

Snowy Winter adds variety to school days The winter of 1984-85 was quite dif- ferent for Round Rock High School students. The unusually cold weather brought several snowy weekends to Round Rock. Due to unfavorable road conditions, school began two hours late twice, students were let out after third period one day, and one of the bad weather days was used. Another difference was that students were not exempt from semester finals regardless of attendance. This also held true for all seniors at the end of the year. With the grading standard having been changed, the final exam require- ment made it difficult for many seniors to graduate. Although senioritis hit early in the year, it became especially intense dur- ing the winter. Many seniors found themselves purchasing pictures, an- nouncements and caps and gowns, all of which added to the excitement of the year. College bound seniors were busy applying to universities and colleges, and most were accepted to a variety of schools, both state and private. For many students, especially the seniors, this winter was filled with ex- citement and was extremely busy. S. 9. The first annual 'fAcadec Pursuit was held this the District meet. Dr. Tom Foster, a game winter and sponsored by the National Honor monitor, asks the questions for the teams to Society in order to prepare the decathletes for answer. 16 Student Life . , y i Q ,ga L- rf' ...... ,J ,s For the first time in several years students could not be exempt from exams.
