Music, Smile Buttons Give School New Face Another year of routine at JHS got under- way in September, 1971. Chemistry and U.S. history were again offered at 7:10 a.m. for students who wanted a 1:15 dismissal. Juniors and seniors took SAT tests as they did every year. Pop quizzes and unit exams still topped the week with unexpected treats. At the same time, there were a few changes. Speech students replaced Principal James L. Early as morning announcers of the day ' s ac- tivities. Speech students also introduced speak- ers at pep assemblies and played music for five minutes before every home room period. Jackson ' s band marched at Notre Dame Foot- ball Stadium August 28 during halftime of the Cleveland Browns - Chicago Bears game, the first pro contest ever played in South Bend. The smile became popular in 1971. Buttons adorned with grinning features blossomed, often on an owner who usually sported a scowl. After Student Council required each pupil to register (with a 25-cent fee) any car he drove to school, green decals appeared on Jackson windshields. FRANK, John Burling ' s pet boa constrictor, spends a day visiting John ' s biology class. Since it has remnants of a pelvic region, a boa serves to illus- trate the possibility of the theory of evolution. THE JHS SCHOOL BUILDING is the home of many organizations, one of which is the marching band. TIGER SPIRIT buttons turn up in the strangest places.

Polka Dancing Enlivens May Junior Prom The 1971 Junior class held their prom May 8 in the Albert Pick Ballroom on the top floor of the new twenty-five-story American National Bank Building. The students donned formal clothes for what was perhaps their first dress-up occasion, and danced to music by ' Easy. The prom queen, Kaye Casad, and her court, Janice Bussert, Mari Cook, Sally Helms, Judy Kinney, Nanette Lutes, Jan Stickley, and Kathy Vanderheyden exemplified the beauty one would expect of a class that chose Wait- ing for the Sun as the prom theme. The prom ' s success left juniors with pleasant memories of the May evening they shared together. WITH ROSES IN HAND, Bob Peterson stands in amazement as Kaye Casad is crowned Prom Queen. ELINOR GRAMENZ reflects upon the beauty of the prom as she dances with her escort, Mike Buckner.
