Dougherty, Rhondo Ducken, Thadde Edwards, Charlene Unique Contests Challenge Juniors I or almost two months now I ' ve been waiting for this week: homecom- ing. Now we ' ll prove ourselves and show that the class of ' 84 is for superior to any other class. Monday — During the shaving cream contest, we didn ' t do so well, unfortu- nately. The freshmen came in first; but, what made me happy, ecstatic in fact, was that we triumphed over the sopho- mores. The shaving cream was abso- lutely, positively, the ultimate in disgust. Kathy Camp unwittingly perched on the edge of a chair while Eric Nilson poured on the shaving cream, attempting to build a mountain of mush. Tuesday — In the lapsit, fifteen of us Juniors participated. Oh, how easy could that be! (or so I thought.) We out sat the freshmen; they just fell. And there go the seniors, they have my sym- pathy. We ' re holding on, but lifting the left leg kills us. We put up a good fight, but went down, surrendering first place to the sophomores. Wednesday — Today we had the piggy back relay. We were doing well, but Mi- chelle Upchurch toppled off Gina Rous- seau ' s back. Thursday — Aaahh, the tug-of-war. We challenged the seniors. With the mus- cles of Eddie Green and other strong ju- niors, we prevailed over the class of ' 83. Our next opponents were the sopho- mores. The gun went off, we tugged, they tugged, and after five minutes of pulling and tugging, we gave in and lost it to the sophomores. Friday — On .the last day of the week, the scores were tallied, WE were placed second (fantastic!) under the sopho- mores. 1. The Junior Class is straining to overtake the seniors. 2. The Junior Class Float shows what the beach scene used to look like in the Roaring 20 ' s. 3. Mary La Londe is desperately trying to out drink her opponents in lunch time activities. 130 We ' re the Kids of America

Fun Filled Flower Fluffing Functions I lower fluffing festivities for the flowers for the floats were by far the most fun functions of the first four and one half months of school. The flowers were frantically fluffed by flocks of fear- less falcons hoping to be fortunate to finish fluffing the flowers for the float. The flowers were fluffed with famous feelings of faith and hopes of first place. Flower fluffing isn ' t the only festivity of the flower making parties. There is also flower folding. Flowers were folded by frustrated friends who folded them fast for fear of failing to fold enough flowers to fluff for their float. On Friday, the float was finally fin- ished, the flowers were all folded and fluffed, and the float finally fitted with a fringe of frilly flowers. As the float went forth on its first fan- tastic flight, some flowers flew off and we had such a fright for fear of more flowers flying. Fourteen flustered fellow floatmckers fastened the flowers and then flew off on their fabulous flight again. The last flight of floats at the home- coming game went fine. The file of floats flew off the field and the final an- nouncement placed Future Farmers of America first and Juniors finishing sec- ond. ■ • 1. Frantically folding flowers for the floot, Teresa Partido finds herself fascinated by her flower mak- ing friends. 2. Finally fizzling out from frantic flow- er folding. Chuck Kuhn and Denny Jordan find themselves refraining from falling fast asleep. 3. Veronica Ancheta feverishly folds and ties flowers for future fluffing. Daniels, Gus
