School-spirited cheerleaders, Georgette Viellion and Marion Portes, smile upon hearing the enthusiastic replies to their question, Is everybody happy? A group of spirited students led by these enthusiastic cheerleaders comprises our Pep Squad, which gives vocal support to the players and does much to further team spirit.

FUTURE LEADERS PREPARE FOR CIVIC Campaigns for governorship in the state of Louisiana this year afforded a timely project for the members of Sister M. Hilary's Civics Club. All during the campaigns, the students followed the candidates of their choice, by collecting write- ups, pictures, posters, and combining them to form a scrap book. Betty Wessel, Janice Quick, Connie Marquer, Emily Carson, Carol Lukei, and Carol Corso examine the books made by their classmates. I00 RESPONSIBILITIES Civics Clubs enable members to learn and understand the forms of national, state, and local governments in order that they can take an active part in working for the betterment of our country. Future civic leaders of America present their ideas to the student body over the public address' system on Citizenship Day. Simone Abadie, Car- olyn Matthews, Lynne Burvant, Julie Bond, Rosa- lind Caruso, and joan Majeste, of Sister M. Mark's freshman class, find civics interesting and practical and plan to put their knowledge into action as community leaders. That their visit to the St. Vincent's Orphanage brought much happiness to these playful children is evident to the cheerful freshmen in Sister M. Ignatius' class. These Civic Club members agreed that by making the children happy they had given themselves the joy that comes from helping others.
