It inspired freshmen to be freshmen; sophomores to sell elaborate mums; juniors to decorate lockers and seniors to paint banners with intense campaigns to serve the student body ' s best interests. COATED WITH LOGOS, lockers Stood out and filled with cookies occasionally as sophomores displayed spirit through painted signs and locker tags. After school meetings, sponsored by Ms. Christine Jones enabled sophomores to add pizzazz to more than one sport during playing seasons. THEY BOUGHT: the Madrigal ' s tuxedoes, outdoor picnic tables and benches, tickets to journalism workshops, teacher and student scholarships. They consisted of concerned parents who operate the Booster Club benefitting school-centered programs as well as the community. ASIDE FROM HOLLERING at pep rallies, painting spirit signs and bust throughs, cheerleaders promoted spirit in previously unrecognized means. They attended a week long summer camp on the campus of Southern Methodist University in order to learn new cheers, stunts and techniques. TRADITION. Through the halls pranced bells, countless yards of ribbon and white mums as Littlefield Floristy pro- vided the Sophomore Class with buds for the Homecoming Mum Sales. Sellers made approximately $500 for the sophomore treasury saving up for next year ' s Prom. POSTERS FLOODED the hallways before promise speeches April 9 culminated campaigns in the Student Council elections. Presidential honors went to Gus Lyons and the vice-presidential nod was given to Alexandra Renwrick who will serve for the 1987-88 term. Elected representatives included Chris Berry and Karen Kocks. i DECORATING LOCKERS, DESIGNING SIGNS, baking cookies and mixing Kool-aid, the senior girls raised school spirit and encouraged morale. Pre-game spirit raisers ma- crialized before every Friday football game and colorful hall averaged 25 yards of extra paper. Take Your Pick ORGANIZATIONS

Members do it better in Two ' s company and three accomplishes more than two when seUing mylar balloons, catching the wave for homecoming or baking enough cupcakes to sell to the hungry masses at 8:25 a.m. The more the group ef- fort, the more the rewards and the more the merrier. TO CLAIM THEIR TERRITORY , seniors manufactured a traditional Homecoming skit that allowed them to tease bowheads and portray organizations as they pleased— with regards to rules. Rehearsed four times, the 20-minute skit ended with unintelligible lyrics and slides. SUCCESS! With a cast of determined actors and actresses. Crimes of the Heart became one of the best shows in which each had ever taken a role. Although the show ran in early September, rehearsals began in August and, by the time school started, the cast was already off script. DELICIOUS CAKES, COOKIES AND BROWNIES , sold by the New Addition Club in the cafeteria on the first two Wednesdays in F eburary provided $200 scholarships for two lucky graduates.The goodies, baked by the 30 members of the club, sold easily to late breakfast eaters. WASHING, SCRUBBING AND RINSING, over 20 Fel- lowship of Christian Athletes cleaned their way into money for spring retreat. In Safeway ' s parking lot on Bee Caves, services cost nothing but profits rolled in from voluntary donations as 120 washed cars equalled $300 in profits. OVER 500 CARNATIONS and 300 balloons answered the Vocational Office Education ' s question Febuary 14 on how to raise money. With all the members chipping in to work, flowers paid off to the tune of a $1.25 per flower and 50 cents per balloon for a handsome profit. CATCH THE WAVE , a popular logo, and Go Freshmen 87 graced the side as the theme of their entry as 15 freshman cruised in the Homecoming parade November 6. From Cedar Creek to Westlake, the decorated truck drove, but failed to place in the competition. JjJLASTiNG Friendship QHONORABLE MEm-|ON tJSELF-SATISFACTlON □Special Interest » :? .

UP AND OVER. The intent of junior Billy Davis and senior Ross Bucholtz while performing their special cheer-raising back flips also became a ncccesity while on the turf to prevent injury. ELECT Me. An expected slogan that popped up in junior Alexandra Renwick ' s speech successfully and other office runners as candidates debated their ways into votes. Too MUCH TO HANDLE. Powder-puff football gave an excuse for fashion creations such as a polka-dot hat and his own line, and size, of brassiere modeled by junior Brad Duncan. Edited by Robby Wells SPECIAL INTERESTS
