Wc want some figgy pudding! Students who participated in the music department displayed a certain type of spirit as well as talent. Woodbridge singer David Cornuet, a member for three years, recites his lines at the Madrigal Dinner Feast held at St. Paul’s Methodist Church. Fa la la la la . . . Spirit can easily be displayed on the ever popular jersey day” during Spirit Week. Here, Jan Garner and Bev Hughes show two kinds of spirit — the well-known and the not-so-well-known — as they prepare for the Fall choral concert. Ahh — performance time. Every day, beginning in August and ending in November, the marching band could be seen and heard rehearsing for the show that was to be performed. This was Mr. Nelson’s first year with us and everyone felt that he did an exceptional job with the group. And the winner is . . . Senior Lynda Kraxberger is one of those people that love to participate. Lynda played the flute in the Jr. Miss pageant last fall and turned in a very fine per¬ formance. Student Life

Spirit is ... . . . yelling yourself hoarse at a pep rally. . . . staying up all night baking garbage cook¬ ies for a club bake sale. . . . meeting deadlines. ... all this and more! Spirit — something just about everybody has. It isn’t seen just during Homecoming week — it’s displayed every day of every week. We defi¬ nitely have had no lack of spirit with our fine athletic, music, art, and academic departments. Playing the French horn in the Symphonic Band is only one example of the dedication and pride shown by our students. Painting murals on the walls of the pods is still another example. Being a member of a club that fixes a Christmas Dinner Box for a needy family and participating on the football team are two totally different types of spirit. Yet, as we do our job, whatever it is, we all experience practically the same feelings — pride in ourselves and the organizations we belong to. It’s a wonderful feeling to be a part of some¬ thing and as we all know, a great number of us are! Whether you realize it or not, everything you do in your school life represents WSHS. By doing something worthwhile, be it sports or writing for the newspaper, you are expressing spirit. Have you ever heard someone say, This place has got no spirit?” Well, they were wrong — it’s all around us! Nano Nano?!? Anyone who would exhibit the Science Club robot in such a manner must have a little spirit and a lot of good humor. On several occasions, Steve Dockery wore the robot suit to school and spent the entire day on the inside, looking out. 18 Student Life
