la-' r 7 AFS Carnival Breaks All Records The annual American Field Service Carnival raises money to bring a foreign exchange student to Webb each year. A crowd of several hundred attended the games, tests of skill, and entertainment offered at this year's carnival, which was held on the night of Saturday, February 3. The carnival was one of the most successful yet, for over S1340 was raised. The co-chairmen of the carnival were Mr. James Q. Webber and Mrs. Donald F. Paine, who, with many of the faculty and student body, devoted much of their time and energy to the carnival. Among the attractions this year were the seventh grade cake walk, the eighth grade casino, and the ninth grade pie throw. There were also the junior horror house, a discotheque, bingo, and the Psychedelic Psnack Pshopi' in the Boys' Building, and a dunking stool, putting green, and basketball throw in the gym. There was a show - after the carnival itself - in the gym, which included Mac s Novelty Hawaiians, a trio which donated their talents, and Faviola and the Dillards, a group of Webb Students. The American Field Service is a foreign exchange organization for high school students, which in 1967 brought more than 3000 students to the United States from sixty countries. This year's A.F.S. student was Lorenza Pampaloni from Florence, Italy, who is staying with Lindsay Young, an A.F.S.-er in her own right. Lindsay spent the summer of 1967 in France - in a chateau in the Loire valley. Vicki tries her skill in the eighth grade game room.

J esters Presents Three-A ct Comedy The highlight of the J esters' year is always the pro- duction of the school play. This year the speech and drama club presented The Man Who Came to Dinner, a three-act comedy written by Moss Hart and George S. Kauffman. Starring Curtis Clark as Sheridan White- side, the play was directed by Mrs. Edwin Hardison, who was assisted by Mr. David S. Engle as Technical Director, and Mr. William J. Tadler as the Production Assistant. Considered as to audience response-and the audiences both nights were large-the play was a great success, and the cast of 42 students felt that the month of frustrating but enjoyable rehearsals was well worth the effort. ln Forensics, 1968 was not as active a year as in times past. The debate team, consisting of chairman Dick Hickman, Dean Deeds, Bob Young, and Doug Allen, considered this to be a rebuilding year. How- ever, the team of Dick Hickman and Dean Deeds did well at the District VI Tournament, placing third behind Oak Ridge and Baylor. Dick also won an award as the tournament's Best Debater. In other speech activities, Becky Greene won the district contest in Poetry Interpretation, and later at- tended the State Tournament. On May 24, the J esters sponsored the annual Original Oratory Contest, with speeches on The Role of the Church in Our Society, Officers of the Jesters this year were Dick Hick- man, president, Becky Greene, vice-president, Tina Graf, Secretary, and Curtis Clark, treasurer.
