Heat had students sweating through registration as it was being held in the cafeteria. The administration made sure that all of the students had their shots and were kept up to date. Locker traditions were differ- ent than years past, the usual class halls have now been mixed. Suckers were passed out to the sophomores to make them feel at home. Jerome Davies started off the opening day with a welcoming speech then Mr. Caldwell had the op- portunity of introducing the new staff members. Flag Twirlers and Drill Team preformed their clinic routines while cheer- leaders did cheers, chants, and led the student body in the school song. Not all classes were held because of the length of the assem- bly. Wednesday night the Summers Over Party was held. There were class competitions such as tug o’ war, roll over, and pyra- mids. The tug o’ war was won by the sophomores, and Jody Young proudly won the weightlifting contest. SOP night ended successfully with a dance that almost ev- eryone attended. It was a good way of reuniting with old friends. Michelle Cook Angie Daniels Vernal Theater Entertainment all year rounc 16 OPENING ACTIVITIES

New STARS SHINE IN OKLAHOMA ♦ Kerry Jones O Mindy Burnett and Lee Claycomb, who are both new to Vernal, finished the production with the traditional Happy Ending . klahoma finally came to Ver- nal. The reason we picked this production was because we thought the community would enjoy it,” commented Miss Spencer, who was the director. There was one thing that made this pro- duction a unique one, and that was the amount of boys that decided they would like to play cowboy. This has been one of the few productions that has included more boys than girls. Mindy Burnett, and Lee Claycomb, said they both enjoyed working with each other and por- traying the leads. Kari Bartlett captured Vernal’s heart with her character, Ado Annie, who was the flirt of Oklahoma. The per- formances revolved around fights between cowboys and the farmers, and quarries over girls, but ev- eryone became friends when Oklahoma became a state. Pam Clement, who was in the chorus said, “One of the funniest things about being in a musical is meeting all of the people and being involved with people who en- joy doing the same thing you do.” The cast and directors were pleased with the performance, along with the crowd who proved that with standing ovations. Dennis Vincent led the farmers and the cuwm in dancing festivities. WHEELER MACHINERY CO. your caterpillar dealer
