Student Participation Boosts School Morale ....--mul ,fl-Q . - M A tl if' ' ltlany spectators and proud Marauders create an atmosphere of enthusiasm. excitement. and school pride during this year's Homecoming Student participation and class competition started early this year with the arrival of Homecoming and the fight for the S.C.L. title in football. Students became involved with the activities of Homecoming week. All three classes slaved on their floats, and the iunior's Adventure Land won first place. Other Homecoming events supported by stu- dents were dressing as jovial Disney characters, at- tending the bonfire, searching for Mitchell's bomb, giving their support at the Homecoming game, and participating in the Saturday morning activities. As the fight for the S.C.L. football title continued, Marauder spirit was clearly shown by the enthusiasm of the large crowds, which attended both the out-of- town and the home games. Throughout the year the student body helped main- tain school moral by participating in several pep as- semblies and morale days. Such themes as Sock the Birds and Boot the Miners were used to give all athletic teams confidence for the upcoming games. Sale of activity tickets, P.T.A. membership, and student attendance at all school plays and dances were stimulated bv class competition. Climaxing the student participation was the ener- getic role that all three classes and separate organi- zations took in the school carnival. Many clever ideas were conveyed by the different booths and decora- tions. The carnival proved to be one of the most suc- cessful events ofthe year.
