From the rowdy orange-and-blue- speckled rafts of students at a typical pep rally to the band members, prepara- tions for their Hawaiian trip, school spirit served to engulf the student body in a feeling of unity and pride. The abundant energies of the students were integrated into many displays of unity within the school, including athletics, the arts, and UIL literary com- petition. For example, the cast of the one-act play, The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie, spent their spring break rehear- sing and representing their school in UIL competition. Twice, the student body fill- ed the auditorium to capacity to support the cast for its efforts.

Coming hom Weeks before homecoming day arriv- ed, many campus groups began feeling the spirit of this annual event as they began to build floats to enter in the homecoming parade. As the floats began to take shape the week before the big event, anticipation increased as the nominees were narrow- ed down to five duchesses, plus the one that would eventually become Homecom- ing Queen 1983. Six seniors reigned as duchesses: Courtney Bryant, Lisa Ed- wards, Lisa Green, Patti Kisor, Liz Neslage, and Sheri Revell. At last, on the night of Oct. 21, the tiny carts escorted the six duchesses around the stadium. Tension mounted. Each girl was introduced in turn. Finally, the win- ner was revealed. I was ecstatic! exclaimed Ms. Ed- wards after she was announced homecoming queen. Her crowning was the climax to a week of special activities with the ending signified by a balloon- filled horizon. Being crowned did not change Ms. Ed- wards' lively attitude toward school spirit. She continued her cheerleading in regular fashion, but instead of wearing the cheerleading suit, she helped cheer the team to its 30-0 victory . . . in a white for- mal dress. Ms. Edwards expressed extreme hap- piness about her honor. However, she did not consider herself any different from the other five nominees. I got a few more roses and a crowng that was the on- ly difference. The other girls were just as deserving as I was, stated the homecom- ing queen. l Jerry Daniel H49 l 2 , ,,.. , 5 G E 1 r ' mi an +25--ff' ig is r fir If ,Ax MUM'S THE WORD - Ducheu Courtney Bryant, driven by senior Eliot Young, rides in a Riviera during the homecoming parade.
