spirits characterize the social life of CCJHS Columbia City students seem to be always on the go. Any excess of energy built up during the week was often exhausted at the dances which were held on Friday or Saturday nights after home football and basketball games. Other week-end activities were frequently shared with friends or with that special someone. Saturday ' s were busy times for some people, especially the speech club. Bus trips to and from meets provided time to catch up on sleep, cards, eating, homework, or the latest news. For ten weeks play practice kept cast members hopping, trying to keep up with their home- work and lines. Many a morning, teachers were greeted with half-shut eyelids, thick tongues, partially done homework and mono. Lunchtime gave students an opportunity to catch up on the latest gossip. New skills were learned as the boys and girls had to make split-second decisions whether to eat from the vending machines or the lunch line as they hurriedly ' walked ' to the cafeteria. Clackers! Dancers often found play practice quite rigorous. Lunch finds the cafeteria full of hungry, talkative teenagers.
