Raffling off a radio and working hard in concessions at basketball and football games helped add to the already bulging treasury of the CSF Club. Advisor Aileen Stevens spent her time going through grades deciding eligibility. ln the spring the 50 members attended their annual initiation dinner where outstanding seniors were honored. Instead of spending most of their time raising money, the Science Club took several trips. The 20 members traveled to San Francisco and visited the Exploritorium. To raise money for their trips they sold candies to junk food addicts. The combined Speech and Debate Club made for busy Saturdays for advisor Marlene Barber. Competing in speech and debate tournments kept the members on their toes preparing and practicing. Over 75'A, of the 21 member debate squad moved to higher classification during the year.

tudents are . . . very creative people. I guess by creating new things, they express themselves. I express myself by losing my leaves in the winter and gaining new buds in the spring, but these SKILLED students have so many more ways in which they can express their feelings and thoughts. They write articles for the school newspaper, compositions for English class, and even their own SPECIAL poetry. I remember all those art projects that STRIVING students worked so hard on this year . . . belts in Leather, clay mugs in Ceramics, still life paintings in Art II, house blueprints in architectural drawing, sewing shirts in Bachelor Living. I remember one student even making himself a waterbed in wood shop! I suppose by creating their own individual works, they express their personal opinions and ciriticism. These students must be lucky to have someone to listen to their opinions. No one . . . no one ever listens to what I have to say. That must be the way that new and better ideas are brought to MHS . . . by students' suggestions and constructive criticisms. Students are the SOURCE of newuandbetterideos. The suggestions that kids make are used to make the SYSTEM run smoother . . . like the dance policy the students originated. I guess it would be quite a STRUGGLE to organize and hold those dances with no set of rules, but a few kids solved that problem by expressing their helpful ideas. I remember the science labs that students themselves created and performed to prove a biological theory. It must be hard to think up an experiment by yourself. I'd like to try it one day. It must be nice to have someone listen to you. I'd really love to learn to sketch or to paint or to sew. I could show others the way I feel and the way I think. I wonder if the students could be creative about me . . . I mean, maybe, draw a picture of me or something . . . to make me SPARKLE. I sure ,ri wish they would. It would mean so much to me. llqwg THE SEEEIIAIL. O 0 0 THE SEECHAE O O O THE SIPECHAIL. 0 . 56 the speciall Q4 n
