summer student life 16 Summer provides school break After the long monoto- nous days of the school year, summer was finally here. For some it meant rest and relaxation, but for oth- ers it was the chore of get- ting out and looking for a job. For those students who did work, the dreaded hour of waking up seemed to come earlier each day. A trip was sponsored by Miss Connie Kelsey to Europe. Four students, along with two from Hugo, and two women with Miss Kelsey met with thirty-one San Antonio travelers. The twenty-eight day trip was spent touring various Euro- pean countries and histori- cal sites. Twelve journalism stu- dents, with adviser Donald Grant, attended the Future Journalists of America work- shop at the University of Oklahoma in Norman. At this workshop, the staffers learned new publication techniques and proper writ- ing style. Baseball was another summer activity which boys as well as girls participated. For the first year, the teen league state play-offs took place at Reece Field in Paris. Paris' Raiders were defeated in the second round of the play-offs.

8 summer student life Q Practices leave working students in ci bind Summer proved to be a busy season for the football teams, band, and journalism students. The band spent more time than in the past because of their conversion from mili- tary to corps style marching. Football teams started work- ing before school to begin to get into condition for the up- coming season. Not only did school orien- tation activities take up part of the summer for students, but the lake and nearby pools gave them a chance to take time out from jobs or other responsibilities. Area swimming pools, as well as Lake Crook and Lake Pat Mayes, provided a place for students to cool off during the hot days of summer. Water skiing and innertub- ing were the main water sports at these lakes. Many church camps were attended by students. The camps varied in locations across Texas and the United States. Some students inter- ested in tennis and gymnas- tics also attended camps. Majorettes, cheerleaders, flag and rifle corps' mem- bers went to various camps at universities and colleges of Texas. They went to improve on their individual skills. With practices, lakes, pools, and camps, summer, hot or not, was an experi- ence to remember for most students.
