4 Convention brings exchange of ioleas Would you like to buy a raffle ticket? This phrase was very frequently used by the Latin Club members. The club organized a raffle for the purpose of raising funds. On November 21, the drawing took place, and the winner received two tickets for an evening perfor- mance at Swift Creek Mill Playhouse. Travel- ing to Roanoke for the State Junior Classical League Convention, the Latin Club brought home numerous honors. Various members won awards in costumes, art, mosaics, crafts, maps, and scrapbooks. While the students were at the convention, they attended workshops and seminars from which they gained useful knowledge. The highlight ofthe two day convention came when the club's can- didate for state president, Richard Broaddus, won the election. 'l.

76 Staffs Helpfulness proves invaluable to staffs One good turn deserves another seemed to be the motto of the school staffs. Volunteer students relinquished their study halls to aid counselors who were busy offering guidance to all of our high school students. These helpers worked diligently each day to relieve the work of the guidance office. Mrs. Bishop's hectic days were relieved by students helping her in the clinic. Running errands, filing notes, and taking absentee lists to the teachers were only a part of their daily routine. Collecting fines, quieting fellow students, and returning books to the shelves were the jobs the library aids undertook. Under the direction of Miss Lamb and Miss Spooner, a study hall became a valuable working period. After the lunch bell rang, the busy staff of the cafeteria began the most hectic part of their day. Day after day they served the meals they had prepared every morning to hungry students with seemingly endless appetites and a half hour to satisfy them. 1.
