Prom preparations . . shaping up for summer . . receiving diplomas Summer was on its way by April and a lot of people were already liv- ing it in their minds. Announcements and commencement practice pushed seniors close to graduation while warm weather made them wish it was all over, and made them wish it was summer. But they were yet to re- ceive their honors and round out their high school years with one more prom, one more election, and one more test. As Bobette and Bobette Beau Car- la Twidwell and Gary Valdez repre- sented Pep Club's spirit and drive. Carla has been a cheerleader all through high school and head cheer- leader her senior year. Gary was ac- tive in football and newspaper. Both seniors will be remembered and next years class will undoubtedly try to live up to their example. The year's end found junior and senior girls planning for the night of the prom. But prom night brought many unique moments that couldn't be planned, the kind of spontaneous memory laden moments that would fill their summer.

The stuffy Iocker roomg the sweat mixed with tearsg the never-ending compe- tition. It almost made me give up. I almost quit. But I stayed. And as a part of the Bobcat team I could win . . . we did win.
