The Future Farmers of America changed this year from their traditional Sweetheart Dance to join forces with the Student Council to successfully put on a Sadie Hawkins Dance. The girls got the chance to ask the boys of their choice to the dance. The highlight of the dance was the auction. The auctioneer, Gary Kuenning, sold many girls and a few boys to the highest bidder, who bid on a dance. The disc jockey from KLMS radio was auctioned and sold for five dollars. Records were given away at the dance by KLMS. A beautiful baby picture contest was held during the dance. Mr. K, Appelget was voted the most beautiful baby in the SHS faculty. The Dating Game, based on the tele- vision show, was also played. Refreshments were served throughout the dance and everyone had an enjoyable time.

ommunity enioys all school Pygmalion , the play version of My Fair Lady, was successfully performed by the Syracuse Drama Department, thanks to the help of the director, Mrs. Sally Knoll. A common English flower girl, Liza Do- little, fKathy Johnsl was taken in by Pro- fessor Higgins, fPhil McCallumJ who was an expert in the field of phonetics. He felt he could turn her into a Duchess.After finding out that Col, Pickering CPat Niselyl was in the same town, they got together to talk over business, Col. Pickering disagreed with Hig- gins that he could pass a flower girl off for a Duchess. A bet was made that Higgins could pass off Lisa for a Duchess at a garden party in six months. After many trying hours, Higgins succeeded and Liza turned into a very gentle woman. Higgins won his bet. The cast and crews did a wonderful job.
