An Glympic Pressbox or many years, it has been a tradi- tion that the senior class paints the pressbox. This year was no excep- tion. Although the seniors had been advised to leave the pressbox alone because the old paint iob couldn't be improved on , they did not let this deter them. Quite a few people came out to work on painting, and when the work was finally finished, many people commented that it was a lot better than the year be- fore. Since there is also a tradition that stu- dents from Yorktown come and vandal- ize the pressbox before W-L plays against Yorktown in football, many of the dedi- cated painters spent the two nights be- fore the game at the pressbox, guarding X ,Z-' it from potential vandals. Although one tent was knocked over, no real damage was done. The 1984 pressbox was very well done and will provide a difficult challenge to those who attempt to improve upon it in the I984-85 school year. lts creators have reason to be proud. , ,f- 1 ,J pf, J ,J aa., ,--JS 5 -i , . ,.- . l 'H-----,..-.A,,,-.-,-,,.,...,,,, -4 I f , A.. 4-ff:--1,--fN..ge T' i an .Q 4. - -r -- ,W ' l , . ,T .-- -. - -gr X - 1 -- ' 1 .1 ' ,j xx g ' Ylxwi 47 A- A 'fig A 11,1 - rv' -YY.. 1 Y.
