Snack-time is always pleasing to basketball players Cand their datesj ! Reba Hardy and Bob Kuhn took advantage of the potato chips, sandwiches and pop served by a group of faculty members. Bob McCoy, our quarterback sneak, slyly maneu- vered his partner, Susan Howard, toward the mistletoe for the certain reward at the 1963 Senior-Junior Hop. Seniors create a Winter Wonderland C.H.S.'s flirtatious farm girl, Charlotte Barnard, cut loose with an elephant joke during a break at the Sr.-Jr. Hop, while Gene Patterson, Jim Coultas, and Jo Fithian enjoyed the punchline. 16 A festive prelude to the Christmas holiday season was the 1963 Senior-junior Hop held December 21 in the C.S.H.S. foyer. An annual event, the Senior-Junior Hop is sponsored each year by the Senior Class as a return favor to the Junior-Senior Prom held by juniors. Blue and silver stars and sprigs of mistletoe suspended from crepe paper streamers carried out the theme of Winter Wonderland. A Christmas tree decorated with tinsel and blue lights stood in the center of the room. Gaily- dressed seniors and juniors danced while the Tradewinds, a local combo, provided music. Refreshments- consisting of soft drinks and cookies were served buffet-style. Decorating the center of the colorful serving table was a cake in the form of a country church, illu- mina-ted by a blue light in the center of the cake. After a short intermission spent in the cafeteria, the guests returned to the dance.

Rome Adventure Sophomore Hop theme Through careful planning and hard work the Sophomore Hop decoration committee turned the high school foyer into a quaint Roman street. The theme, Rome Adventure, was carried out by a sidewalk cafe, a replica of the Colosseum, and a fountain surrounded by a flower garden. During the evening the enthusiastic sopho- mores danced to the popular twist music pro- vided by the Ramblers, a dance band selected by a student committee. The refreshments were served in the gaily decorated cafeteria by a group of junior High School girls. The sophomores ate cake, sand- wiches, and drank punch by candlelight. At eleven o'clock the dance ended and the clean-up committee turned the Rome Adven- ture into the C.S.H.S. foyer once more. The class officers organized and selected chairmen for the publicity, decoration, enter- tainment, refreshment and clean-up committees. Almost hysterical, Steve Etcheson, Margaret Harp, Pat Taylor, Gayle Sipes, Kathy Mulligan, and Ricky Hannappel take a time out after dancing to the swinging beat at the Sophomore Hop. Working hard to build Rome in :i day, Toni Ferrari was con- fused by Judy Maynard's explanation of her plans for recon- structing the Colosseum in the foyer for the Sophomore Hop 17
