Amid the mixed emotions, the marching band and the Generalettes made their opening performance with a half time consisting of catchy tunes from familiar commercials.

With the adoption of Wayne Brigade, the Student Council also spent many hours outside of school time caring for responsibilities as- sociated with Homecoming preparations. With the announcement of election results in May, 1974, Council officers J. P. Specht, President: Ann Boyle, Vice-president; LeAnn Thompson, Secretary; and Calvin King, Treasurer, began their vigorous one-year terms. Relinquishing much of their summer vaca- tion, the foursome devised the September 16 homeroom election rules, constructed the first Council budget, and elaborated the concept of a mini course program. As a result of home- room elections, 33 representatives and alter- nates took positions as members of the Student Council. Sophomore classofficer elections took place the fourth week of September, adding Jody Be- craft, President; Brad Springer, Vice-presi- dent; and Sue Patrick, Secretary-treasurer to the executive board of the Student Council. While sophomores competed for positions as class officers, students auditioned for ap- proximately 30 parts in Once Upon a Mattress. The musical comedy, based on a book by Jay Thompson, Marshal Barer, and Dean Fuller, was chosen as the first endeavor by the Per- forming Arts Department, Rehearsals began im- mediately in preparation for the November 15 and 16 performances.
