Howd One of the biggest weeks of the year is called simply Howdy, Started in 1952, the tradition of se- lecting the friendliest boy and girl as Mr. and Miss Howdy has grown into a week filled with dress-up days, and an assembly of skits and musical presenta- tions by the students. The climax is a western dance. This year the DJ was The Rock'in Machine.

The year started off with various shapes and patterns of ties as students raided dad's closet on Tie Day. Then followed Stripe Day and Red and Black Day. The students went back in time on 26 A Slice of Life Fifties Day in their own creations. On Sweat Day, many students wore sweat- shirts and on Overall Day, many wore overalls. Students seemed to enjoy button day because everyone had many inter- esting buttons for others to read. I think dressing up shows you've got school spirit, Michelle Foley, jun- ior, said.
