SPORTS AND ACTIVITIES . . . Important Parts of a Student's Life. A student's life doesn't end when the bell rings at 2:48 . . . it's much more than schoolwork. Some stu- dents have jobs and homework to keep them busy, others have par- ties, but a major part of the stu- dent body are involved in sports and clubs. Even if a student isn't a member of an athletic team or a club, he or she usually supports the organization by being part of the crowd at the games or buying items a club is selling to raise mon- ey. Last fall, I.F.C. sold candles, the Huskey Growl sold papers all year and just about every club had a car wash in the fall. Also, the Varsi- ty Soccer games were attended by record-breaking crowds-a first for G.H.S.! Our school is fortunate to have a diverse athletic program which of- fers sports for the enthusiastic golfers, skiers, or tennis buffs; sports which demand the stamina of the runner; and physical contact sports such as soccer, football, field hockey, and basketball. We also have a number of clubs ap- pealing to many personalities. For the artistically talented, we have Scitamard, Choir, and Band. For students hoping to travel, there are I.F.C. and the French Club. For those interested in journalism, the Oracle and the Huskey Growl of- fer opportunities to work, and for those interested in the welfare of the student body, there is the Stu- dent Council. In any case, classes are not the only facet of a student's life! Top: With a powerful kick Bob Hine (4) in- timidates a Glen Falls Striker Above: Keep- ing in stride.

Gloversville Goes For It! u The city of Gloversville, long known for the excellence of its leather products, still prepares hides from many countries to be made into useful items. Gloversville needs more sport and recreational facilities, although the city does boast tennis courts, baseball fields, a swimming pool, and three parks. The Gloversville Free Library is also developing into a true community re- source, providing residents with reading and reference materials and special programs. The recently reorga- nized bus system transports Gloversvillians all over the city at a reasonable price. The Society to Promote the Revitalization of Gloversville ( S. P. R. I. N. G. ), togeth- er with the Chamber of Commerce and area businesses, are working towards making Gloversville a better city.
