Mid-afternoon, on Sunday, Nov. 18th, the two determined teams, composed of junior and senior girls respectively, appeared at op- posite ends of the football field. A sprinkling of spectators filed into the stands and onto the sidelines as serious-faced coaches huddled with their warpainted and mud- smeared teams. The Powderpuff Game was about to begin. All eyes were on the first playg the student coaches barely con- tained their shouts as their fellow students battled on the field. They're hitting hard, came the report from the juniors. Hit back! was the coaches' reply. Wild cheers and team pile-ups greeted each touchdown. During half-time, pillow-stuffed male cheerleaders tackled the referees. Then, with 15 seconds left on the clock, within 5 yards of their goal, and with a tie score, the juniors made a dramatic move. Nancy Rohman, grabbing the ball, ran the whole length of the field for a touchdown. Bruised and sore, the victorious juniors left the field, winning by a score of 12-6. On the same night, the annual Powderpuff Dance seemed less enthusiastically attended than the game. The band, Stampede , did its fair share to encourage at- tention, but the minds of the stu- dents were elsewhere. Quinn 1 .,,,iwf5:?H4?5i

Whether involved in communi- ty service, artistic effort or the endless stream of fund-raising ac- tivities, the numerous clubs kept many students from being idle. Since student's interests are not always identical, the clubs at Weston High covered many areas. Academic or outdoorsy, or- ganized or just for the fun of it, a club seemed to exist for almost every group of students with mu- tual interests and ideas. Some clubs were part of national and even international organizations, others were completely unique to Weston. They all provided stu- dents With an outlet for their en- ergy, or a place to make a contri- bution.
