1988 Prom Queen Wendy Hebb and her escort, Brian Quattro flash winning smiles. Looking as enchanting as the evening itself, the Junior attendants were Paula Hinkle, escort Shane Haddox; Cindy Newman, escort Jim Ambrose; Lesley Par- sons, escort Jack Mullenax; and Kristie Tucker, escort Danny Messanger. Daddy afwayk laid nottany good happtok aft c uddtugkt DADDY WAS WRONG - PROM 88' Dozens of would-be-cinderella's snubbed their Daddy's advice as they dashed off on the arm of their Prince Charming ready to break curfew if necessary. Still photo-shocked and half blinded by flash bulbs, they staggered into the gym to be welcomed by bright and extravagant decora- tions. Even after dancing the ma- jority of the evening away at the 1988 Junior-Senior prom, the spirit that moved all those await- ing the moment to “cut loose” could not be detained. Plans were being made about where to meet after the prom. These plans were to live it up one more time or the final bash with the crew of 88'. Anxious and ea- ger to get to the rendezvous spot, everyone hurriedly stopped oft somewhere to “ditch” those prim, proper clothes and replace them with good oT partying a ttire, jeans, sweatshirt, and tennis shoes. Though the days of being high school kids or hanging around with your senior pals were nearing the end, no frowns were shown that night in the mist of the celebrating. Anybody present at the prom or the after-prom bash could clearly tell that the crew and the crowd around the class of 1988, “Never Tuckered Out!!!” 106 - Prom

BA TTLE OF TUB CLASSES Big iu tpittei comb in The annual Battle of the Class- es, which was started last year, proved to be a success once again. Throughout the halls, signs could be seen and the competi- tiveness of the classes was shown. The Yearbook Staff came up with what they called, Identity Day. This was where each class was given a different color and were to wear it to show their sup- port. The seniors were blue, ju- niors red, sophomores black, and the freshman were gold. Last year the class of 88 won, and the question pondered by most students was would they still hold the title? The seniors were sure they would. They proved to be strong and determined in their ef- forts, but that didn’t seem to be enough. They soon fell behind as the game got underway. The ju- niors' confidence was just as strong. They thought for sure it was their turn to win. They did win most of the games and were largely ahead. The sophomores tried their best but they seemed to be no match and their points were slowly scored. The fresh- man weren't thought of to be much competition and were tak- en lightly. Each team tried their best and gave every game their all. No matter who was in the lead during the game the final decision of the team to emerge victor was to be determined by the Tug of War. Anticipation ran through ev- eryone as they got ready to show their strength. There was a weight limit for the Tug of War which was exceeded by the ju- niors and they were disqualified. The seniors came in third as the sophomores came in second. To everyone's surprise the freshman won the Tug of War and when the scores were added up they came out ahead. So as some say the quiet ones are full of surprises as the Battle of the Classes title went to the freshman. It proved to be another exciting and chal- lenging event with an astonishing outcome.
