HHH keynotes 'Politics ' 0,' holds AM M audience spellbound This year students of AMM learned that they must open not only their ears but also their eyes to the world around them. Hubert Humphrey's speech highlighted 'Politics ,70', the lirst enrichment day of 1970-l. Local politicians campaigned and mock elections were held on the ground floor. In November Mr. Markert discussed the need for state aid to nonpublic schools. Then, on February l, reflecting the emphasis on ecology today, various speakers urged students to Save our World. Discussing pollution of all kinds some suggested partial, but practical solutions to the problem. Even if these enrichment days couldn't inspire all the students at least they were a welcome break from classes!

'Younger set' gives seniors spirit to grow on Happiness runs , . . and so did 75 peppy guests from Franklin Elementary School at the senior's annual Christmas Party. Apprehensive seniors, unsure of proper etiquette with the younger set, paced nervously at the front door, waiting for buses to arrive. Then came the stampede to capture a little friend to match each gift. Both girls and guests straggled to a cafeteria transformed into a Christmas wonderland for a feast of hot dogs, chips and countless cookies. Entertainment featured Robin Newes' debut as The Grinch Who Stole Christmas to the melodious narration of Sue Jenkins. But heard between Jackie Nadeau's ho-ho-ho-ing's were little voices asking, Are you on welfare too? which caused the Murray girls to pause and consider Christmases unlike theirs. Best of all were the notes of thanks. Thank you for the funl had, friends . . . your party was the best I ever went to . . .N 68fSenior Christmas Party LEFT: Lifting her boy onto Ru- dolph, Kathy Odean discovers tha he weighs more than she expected.
