Students go 'punk' during Spirit Week Me and my cowhands, Barbara Caughey and dichaela Lassetter, are wild about Western Day. How 'bout you, cowboy? Stacy McGhee Junior I I ! Due to a student holiday on Monday, Spirit Week was four short days. I didn't hear anyone complain, however. Being the spirited person that I am, I fof coursel agreed on wearing my boots and Levi's on Tuesday. Wednesday got a bit trickier, and thanks to Mr. Watts, who kindly tied a man's tie onto my back, I also participated for backwards day. Thursday was unbe- lievable! You would never have known that people had complained about having a punk rock day, for it had the best response out of them all. Kinky hair of assorted col- ors, purple Iipstick, and skin-tight leopard outfits could be seen everywhere. Not own- ing anything that is officially punk, I had to make-do. But I somehow showed up with my share of glittery eye shadow, hot pink lipstick, and matching nail polish, kinky hair, and black leotards with sweater. The winners of the punk rock contest were Angie Peterson and Katherine Braden. If you're in band or pep squad, color day is no problem, but as your basic high school senior, I for one, had run out of black and silver clothing. All was not lost, however, for I was one of the many who got a mum. Notice how I said 'a' mum-some of my friends actually had anywhere from five to ten! The winner of the door contest was Mrs. Libby Chaskin's class. Dawn Phinney Michelle Maykuth, Donna Overfelt, and I are just some of the tacky people who wen! all out for punk rock day. Rick Davidson Senior This year's spirit week was the best one yet! I had a great time dressing up for the different days, but punk rock day was my favorite. Monica Silver Sophomore Spirit Week I I

One couldn't help but pick up the spirit! l couldn't wait until halftime. The band i:ouldn't have triggered the emotions of the crowd any better. With 'Hello Again' play- ing in the background and the court being introduced, l caught myself getting as nerv- ous, if not more, than the girls out there. After what seemed forever, l finally heard Pam Cromey announce, ' . . . and the 1981 Homecoming King and Queen are Mark Curtis and LaRhesa Moonl' l clapped and cheered like everyone else, and then sud- denly it was over. The 'fantasy world' aspect of the whole thing disappeared and l found myself anxiously awaiting the begin- ning of the second half. Losing the game to district champs Holmes, did not put a dam- per on the atmosphere. l was very proud of our Coogs for they put up a good fight with a final score of 13-26. Saturday was quieter in comparison to the day before. l was behind the scenes at the yearbook distribution, but by looking l could tell there had been a good turn-out. Seeing last years graduates was exciting and yet sad because l was closer to the people in the Class of '81 then any other class. The dance was like any other Clark dance. l regret to say the most exciting part was buying myself a new dress and getting my corsage . . . As a senior this was by far my best homecoming. l'm sure next year will be fun to come home and be the alumni instead of the high school student, but I know nothing will ever compare to my Senior year!
