 SPIRIT WEEK SHS’s “Spirit” Shines Through Spirit Week, hosted by the pep club, started out with u little bit less than a bang this year as only three clubs and organizations had the stamina to stay all hours of the night decorating halls. Because of the activities planned by the cheerleaders, things picked up as the week pro- gressed, however. Tuesday was “stomp on the I)ons” day. Many different styles of weird and “unusual” shoes showed up to celebrate. Everything from originally decorated high-top canvas tennis shoes and leprechaun shoes, to flippers and Jerusalem cruizcrs were popular gear worn for the occasion. Hat day brought a barrage of hats never before seen by mankind. Mr. Macomber’s students were somewhat disappointed as he quietly but calmly informed them that they wouldn't be able to wear their “bonnets” in class. ()ther activities included the jalapcno pepper eating contest. Bryon Waite won by eating a mere 82 half jalapeno peppers. Grand prize was a gallon of binaca blast mouth spray.

THE DEER HUNT Two Legs or Four Legs? Jolenc Reeve doesn’t have to hunt for her “dear.” Rebecca Estes and Ann Paystrup prepare another delicious batch of pancakes. The deer hunt is the special time of year when most members of the male gender, and a few of the female, get away from civiliza- tion and are a little more barbaric than usual. (For you girls it usually falls near Sadie Iiawkins so that boys have an excuse not to go to Sadies.) Restraining one of these avid hunters from the ecstasy of tramping through the forest in weather no respectable deer would be caught dead in, the thrill of eating hobo stew, eggs that stick to the bottom of the pan, tin foil dinners with burned potatoes, or not eating at all because you left vour food home by accident is a major felony. After you eat, you’re off to find your prey. While you walk along beside a stream, odds arc about 99-100% chance of falling in and getting wet. If you finally get a deer (even il it’s a spike), you have to drag it out of that wilderness 200 miles from nowhere, to your vehicle. After you get home you have to skin it and cut it (unless you take it to the meat packing plant, which gets a lot of business during the hunting seasons.) There is something out there which draws people. When ask- ed what the deer hunt meant to her, Paige Wright said she thought of “the desire to go.” The deer hunt is big at the school too. School was excused for a day and a half, and the half we went was spent in participating in a number of various activities. For example: stuffing yourself with pancakes, telling tall tales, doing a mountainman run, etc. And if you didn’t participate in any of the activities, it was possi- ble to enjoy them by just being a spectator.
