Junioi;s Challenge Seniors We, the Junior class, challenge the inferior Senior class of Albe marle High School to participate in the massacre of your class. Since the Junior class wants to give you a fair chance, we have decided to omit violence (if possi ble), and prove our superiority on the field of athletic competition. We propose on the day of November 13, 1980, at 7:00 p.m., that the Senior class (if they are brave enough) meet the Junior class in a game of football to proye once and for all that the Junior class reigns supreme! Menacingly, The Junior class officers and advisor Maria Dennis, President Laura Mauldin, Vice-president Kristi Britt, Secretary Stephanie Pollard, Treasurer Susan Hathcock, Advisor 2SS^ Ik You are a fox, but that’s not enough; Now go in there and show your stuff. Forget your grace; forget your charms. Now, go in there and break some arms. YEAH POWDER PUFF! YEAH POWDER PUFF!
