Representing the Arlington High School Student body as 1967 Homecoming royalty are (left to right) the Homecoming Queen nominees Kate Schwarzer, Roxic Duckett, Carmen Self, and Pat Lee; the Junior Princess Gail Gustafson; and Sophomore Princess Jonia Hayden. October was a month packed with excitement and busy activities. The National Merit Scholarship Semi- finalist was announced, and Lark Lands gladly re- ceived that honor. Homecoming fell on October 20, bringing with it excitement and traditional royalty. At the pep rally Homecoming morning, Tommy Thornton and Karen Jessup were announced as Mr. and Miss School Spirit. There was a hush just before Carmen Self was announced Homecoming Queen of 1967 during the halftime ceremonies of the game that night. The annual Package Plan Assembly was pre- sented through the joint effort of the COLT COR- RAL and Colt newspaper staffs. The program in- cluded skits from all periods of time from Tarzan and Jane to the Age of the Hippies, encouraging one and all to purchase a newspaper-yearbook package plan. Tarzan and Jane swing into Hippicland during the Package Plan assembly promoting sales of the publication package. 23
