Then, on Thursday everyone except the sophomores showed their spirit by dressing in red, black, and white clothes. The poor 'ole sophomores had to go through Sophomore Initia - tion and the seniors were in charge of it. Friday was Gong Day and different people helped to put on a gong show leaving it open to anyone to audition. Friday evening was the Home- coming football game against Riverside. The Tiger Scots walked away with a victory and celebrated with a fantastic dance at the new Cafetorium. The 1977-78 Homecoming Queen was crowned during half time of the game. The queen was Cheryl Licht. Homecoming Dance, Big Success! Homecoming Queen Cheryl and her date Tom.

V ......Y-Jgft UTU RE USINESS EADERS MERICA FBLA CHAPTER The Future Business Leaders of America chapter had a slow start at the first of the year but as the year went on things seemed to get going a little smoother. The old members had to break-in a new advisor and a few new members to get it rolling. Some of their different money making projects were a spaghetti feed, sale of stocking caps, and a booth at the Ice- Cream Social. Another project that the FBLA chapter participated in was help- ing with the March of Dimes Walk-a-thon. Every year all around the state FBLA chapters helped the March of Dimes in fund raising projects. This year our home chapter members helping were Kathleen Sams, Linda Himes, Rosa McBean, Patsy McCullough and Ruby Smith.
