On Tacky Tourist Day Millette Smith and Lynn Craven dis- cuss places they would like to tour and pretend to taste the delicacies of a foreign land. Posing for pictures is a must when touring. Tacky tourists Miriam Belcher, Paula Rahn, and Tony Caruso make sure their vacation will be remembered. SPIRIT WEEK 13

Close Your Closet ... It's Spirit Week Strange and ridiculous hats, wacky sun- glasses, holey jeans, bermuda shorts, worn out shoes, Michael Jackson impression- ists, and blue and white. What do all of these things have in common ? Of course, this was the week of October 29 through November 2— Spirit Week! On Monday, the typical dress was holey jeans, old shirts left untucked, worn out shoes, mismatched socks, and hats worn backwards. Some people really took it to the limit and showed up at school with dirt smeared all over their faces. Tuesday, Tacky Tourist Day, was enjoyed by John Nugent. “It is my senior year,” he said, “and I just thought it would be fun to show off a little spirit.” Almost everyone had on the usual tourist outfit; Hawaiian shirts, bermuda shorts, ridiculous straw hats and of course that ever so obvious tourist tool—the instamatic camera. According to Heather Rash, Wednesday was the most popular day of all. Because it was Hal- loween, it was appropriate to declare this as Spook or Costume Day. Garland Sutton en- joyed this day in particular. He did such a good job at dressing as a woman that other students encouraged him to enter the mock homecom- ing queen contest not surprisingly, he won the contest. Thursday, the final day, was the traditional blue and white day. Everyone seemed to show the most spirit that day, especially the seniors. Adreen Dicks and Tonya Coleman show their spirit on slob day while, along with Yolanda Ulmer, Karla Tracy and Margie Thomas, they receive the balloon schedule from Mrs. Pat Rhode. Though our school does not have too many nerds on a normal day, Barry Trimble dresses like a nerd only on Nerd Day. Shades and hats constitute an important part of Paul McGahan's and Lashaunda Brown's tacky tourist out- fits. 12 spirit week

Lunchin' Is More Than Munchin' A Busy Break After three or four classes of work, lunch was a time when students had a break from their busy schedule. There were two lunch periods: first lunch—11:30 til 12:15 and second lunch—12:32 til 1:07. For some stu- dents lunch was the only time they got to see and converse freely with friends. Those who shared the same lunchtime with their friends were fortunate. Missy Hiott said, “I was one of the lucky ones. I had lunch with all of my friends.” Lunchtime did not always mean eating. Some students used the time to work on help- ing teachers and other staff members. But students and faculty were not the only ones that enjoyed lunch. Walterboro High School hosts a community program for ap- proximately 75 senior citizens. These people spent their weekdays at the school making crafts, enjoying one another’s company, and eating lunch with the students. Lunch would not have been complete with- out the hardworking cooks and kitchen staff. They prepared the meals daily for approxi- mately 1125 students and 75 senior citizens. Big smiles are on the faces of Miriam Belcher, Julie Johnson, and Paula Rahn after a tasty meal. A balanced meal is being served by the cooks. 14 LUNCHTIME
