In February, SHOUT sent Valentines to boys in Viet Nam, and in the spring they projected their annual Dollars for Scholars drive. Throughout the year SHOUT mem- bers organized other beneficial projects such as a campus cleanup campaign which enabled them to fulfill the SHOUT motto of Projects for Progress, and Fun in the Processfl 4 4 Nancy Dowling and Nancy Bowers, co-cnalrmen of A.F.S., outline some of the activities for International Weekend. 30

'KResolved that the foreign aid program of the United States be limited to non-military assist- ance. This proved to be an absorbing and controversial topic for this year's debate team. Under the leadership of Mr. Hogan, the team members Barb Hannick, Anne Bushey, Hollee Mickelson, Gregg Newstrand, Tom Ekstrand, and Andy Holt attended many district and col- lege meets. The team, true to Hoquiam tradition, received many honors. They placed fourth in district meets, participated in the district league meet, and received recognition by being the only junior team to receive an invitation to the tourna- ment in Pullman. In March, Barb Hannick and Hollee Mickelson further distinguished the team by placing fourth out of sixteen in competition in Olympia. s k FRONT ROW: Anne Bushey, Hollee Mickelson, Barb Hannick.
