The line was long at the ticket booth on the evening of October 11, 1985. The crowd made their way to their seats after stopping by the con- cession stand for popcorn and candy. They finally found their seats, kicked back and waited for the show to begin. The feature presentation was The Wildcats vs. The Colts, starring the famous Wildcat Football Players, with Executive Producer Coach Bovenkirk and Assistant Producers Mr. Zonyk and Mr. Schirk. The Wildcats were winning at half time, and the intermission had begun. The show at intermission had con- tained many newly discovered stars. The starring roles were played by King and Queen, Chad Durren and Jennifer Jackson. With their co-stars Prince and Princess, Jeff Wilson and Kathy Clay, Duke and Dutchess, Chad Cot- tingham and Janet Larkins, Lord and Lady, Ross Clay and Darcy Davis. These stars had it rough on their way to stardom. In order to get where they had, they had to perform many duties. These duties were dressing up for the various dress up days. Revenge of the nerds. Old Movies Day, Walt Disney Day and the Wizard of Oz Day. These stars also had to show their artistic abilities in the banner contest, and show their creativity in the essay contest. They even had their own Star Games, which was running down a basketball court with a football be- tween their legs. The head of the props department was the senior class, showing their talent once again by building the winning float. Intermission was over and the show had begun again. The ending to this feature was a happy one, as the Wildcats rode off into the sunset with a victory leaving the ushers behind to clean up the popcorn boxes and candy wrappers. A grand pair.

The yearbook staff was hard at work at the high school trying to meet a deadline when Dennis Wilkie ' s Dad came in. Did you hear? he said. We just bombed Libya. The room was silent as we all soaked it in. Some agreed with President Reagan, some did not. Such were the reactions all over the world. Were we justified in what we did? That was the question everyone asked. Some felt Reagan had no choice but to do what he did after all of the terrorist attacks and the It ' s all mapped out.

That wench Clare just made matters worse the way she treated her child. 1 would never trust her with All My Chil- dren. Speaking of children, poor Jeremy. How could his step-mon- ster Natalie have done that to him. Saying that child was his just because Alex was dead. And Jer- emy and Erica were so happy.
