AIZIIVIIIES All llll S I During an average day at Highland, there are activities for everybody. Playing inter- murals at noon is a popular pastime for most of the boys. It is also a common scene for the girls to be seen dancing on the south side of the gym. Occasionally, the entire school may be called to the gym for a pep session to cheer the team on to victory. Following most games, the students enjoy staying for the record hops, sponsored by the various organizations.
