REVEREND WARREN lVl. Hile talks to students about the meaning of Thanksgiving at the annual Thanksgiving assembly. Assemblies during the year were scheduled before or after school rather than during the day. This was one ofthe many changes which took place because ot modular scheduling. A few assemblies were scheduled inthe evening so that more parents could attend. There were many musical assemblies featuring, among many others, the Army Field Band, the Air Force Academy Falconaires, and the Mitchell choirs. Students had a chance to display their talents during the 1967 Homecoming Talent Show. Imagination and hard work by the assemblies com- mittee members resulted in a variety of entertaining assemblies during the year. Secretary of Assemblies Steve Johnson worked closely with assemblies com- mittee members and faculty advisor lVliss Lynn John- stone throughout the year to attain the high quality ot lVlitchell assemblies which were available to the stu- dent body this year. Students Attend Assemblies Voluntarily FIRST SEMESTER COUNCIL representatives of the junior class are sworn in at the Council installation.
