Students yearn for bright lights Purples, oranges, and myriads of other hues filled the screen as the Photography Club viewed its Light Shows. These were slide-music pro- ductions highlighted by different colors moving constantly over the screen. This effect was achieved by pressing colored gelatin between pieces of gloss and placing it under an opaque projector. The result was similar to lighting techniques being used on television. The buddy system was employed to better teach the inexperienced members about the taking and print- ing of pictures. Each of the older students was responsible for several others whom they took to the dark- room in order to teach them how to develop film and print pictures. At their meetings, reports were given on the many parts of a camera, and members studied such things as how film reacts in a camera. Glaring, suffocating lights are hard on a performer, but they are an abso- lute necessity for any theatrical or musical production. EGATS was the organization responsible for these at CHS. Before, this club ' s main jobs were the musical and the Sensational Sixties. Neither of these were done this year, but EGATS had plenty to do with the Carol Sing, various dances, and the spring style show. Let ' s get with it now guys!

Looks of indecision and quiet resignation appear on the faces of these Photography Club members as they work on difficult assignments.

One, two, three, heavel Being a member of EGATS also means having a lot of muscle, as any of these people will tell you. Mr. Elwyn Brown, and Jim Crews tug on some of the heavy ropes in the gymnasium. 80

Language clubs learn, dream, sell Como esta usted, the breaking of papier moche pinatas laden with candies, and classic fairy tales done in an entirely different fashion all contributed to make this a rewarding year for the members of the Spanish Club. The atmosphere was definitely Latin American as members became more proficient in Spanish cookery, folk dancing, music, and literature. The beautiful life of gay Paris and the peace of Brittany seemed to come to life in the lilting conversation that greeted one upon entering Le Cercle Francois. Enlightened by the finer portions of French culture, many a member looked forward to the chance of discovering them for himself some- day in the near future. Buy a ticket for the gas sale? It ' s only $1.00! Such were the pleas of many dedicated German Club mem- bers. All was not work, however, as good conversation and skits all added to make these times ones to re- member. Qu ' esl-ce que c ' est que Le Twister? ' Per- haps la belle France hasn ' t discovered this game yet, but the French Club at CHS definite- ly has. Club member Teresa Maschino goes through various contortions while playing Twister at the club initiation. Handling the controls in a language room, Spanish Club members Steve Chappie and Jim Lienhoop lead their fellow club members. Minds all over fhe world are spinning now that Scrabble has become an international game. German Club member Marsha Levings waits patiently as Rob Fitzpatrick struggles dil- igently to make a German word on the board out of the letters he has drawn. 79

UmUO Like rolling towel calendars, money-making projects are tedious. But, Alice Carmichcel hopes that D.E. will profit from her labors. D.E. issues students Social Security cards Demurely seated in a leather swivel chair with a cigar in his mouth, glasses on the tip of the nose, and a pencil behind his ear, the business- man labors endlessly into the night. These are the impressions one has about the business world. Yet the bright young members of the Dis- tributive Education Club were a far cry from this stereotyped character. These students were interested in the opportunities the business world could offer them after graduation. Firsthand experiences in business were gained from their calendar towel sale and through their issuing of Social Security cards. Many mem- bers had jobs in local shops, and the knowledge found there was in- valuable. There was fun, too, as out- ings and parties were given. With small-lalk and an eagerness to help, Karen Haggeman and Jon Seabrook, fill out applications for social security cords. Giving club members a few suggestions, Mr. Phil McKinney represents the many sponsors whose aid is welcomed when ideas are few. 81
