reshmen in beaks for a week By Anne Osborne “Ouch!”’ | yelped as | pulled off my - beak. The elastic snapped my left ear and had cut off all circulation to ‘p my nose. i : Hooked in the mirror, straightening my shower cap, try- ing to make it look halfway decent, but to no avail. | tried to decide whether or not to risk going out into the hall. My stomach won over my ner- ousness, so | ven- tured out. If you haven't guessed yet, the reason for all this fuss is that | am a Fresh- man, and it was the first week of school: Freshmen Initiation. | finally got to the front of the lunch line (after waiting for some time, | might add) when some jock in a Generra sweater elbowed me and ordered his lunch first. | was about to tell him where he could put his football helmet when | noticed his tag. Yes, it was Mr. Sporto, King Sen- ior, Ken Ouellette. | decided not to tell him off. Balancing my Welch's grapefruit juice, my Lay’s potatoe chips, and my Snickers bar, | scanned the lunchroom, searching the tables for my friends. | had just spotted my pals when Jeff Blissett, the president of the Senior Class, took a blow horn and told aii freshmen to go to the out- side bleachers. As | headed out the door, | snapped my beak into place and thought of the many upcoming adventures of the year. HUMILIATING COSTUMES didn’t prevent Tina Sun- nell, Stacie Ballou, and Mary Ann Grinsell fromm hav- ing a good time at a pep assembly SENIOR HALL SCRUB was oc new activity in 1986 — because there were so many freshmen (140) Scrubbing the floor with toothbrushes are Chris Hixon and Steve Buzzell. Said Hixon, “| had a toothbrush with no bristles! It was no fair.” RARE PHOTO of the now extinct Baby Seagull (Sea- sidus Freshmenus), Chris Meyer and Jon Reeves 4 Frosh initiation

og-A-Thon: money in the madness By Clark Kent Anything ¢an finally happen. For three years Jeff Moon hustied pledges and fan lap$ — Gnd wound up 2nd. Finally, as a senior, he won it all, raising $396.65 for scholarships by running 29 laps worth $413 each, Said Moon, “| was going for it.” The effort won him a round-trip ticket to L.A., and meant college money for one of his classmates Unfortunately, not everyone was so serious. Participation was down and fun rather than funds seemed to be the goal for many The event was a colorful explosion of merrymaking for which the unofficial dress code seemed to be “wear the most outrageous duds you can mix and not match.’’ Don Mespelt and Paul Cha- talas wore hospital scrubs and took turns in a wheelchair they stoled from the fall play set. Danny Loke circled the track in a gorilla mask. Football players like Jeff Blissett could say: “| had a lot of fun and raised a little money.” For cross-country runners it was a workout: They raised a lot of money and had little fun! Andrew Miscoe ran one 40¢ lap “to miss Corri- gan’s class.” TOP MONEY RAISERS: Overall: Jeff Moon. Mike Johnson, Dan Brien, Jacque Phelan. Seniors: Josh Johnson, Molly Strohecker. Juniors: Shawn Weiss, Michelle Patopea, Engred Kulland. Sophomores: Jason Boyd. Scot Thompson. Freshmen: Mike Sims. Jake Johnson, Matt Clark, Tracy Poulin 1S THIS FAIR? Joe Shulte found riding on Don Me spelt's lap in a wheeichar easier than running THE ONE TO WATCH is in the third row about in the center — Jeff Moon. He didn’t get a great start, but ran 29 laps worth $13 each and won the grand prize two round-trip tickets to L.A THEY WALKED. Michelle Dane, Jon Schreier, Polly Campbell and friends had it made in their shades They walked all 10 laps. “It was a lot more fun than running.”’ said Schreier HE WAS TRYING to keep up with Nea! Branson, but senior Dean Major decided to adopt a more civil ized pace after 220 yards. The point is to raise mon ey and have fun, Major explained
