Who was known as the “wind me up, I’ll join” kid? . . . and the youth that was almost too fat to play Santa at the Christmas party for a much happier needy family ... or the soprano that could usually be heard bellowing out Andy Williams’s tunes in the corridors, and then he suddenly lost his voice when he learned he was to lead the singing of the “Star Spangled Banner” at the S.C. sponsored Veteran’s Day Assembly . . . But then there was his illustrious comrade who was usually so busy tuning guitars or editing student protest papers, he could scarcely find time for the newly formed Presidents’ Organization or the Student- Teacher Forum. The female members of this mystery group could usually be found either balancing the hungry S.C. financial books while writing letters to that favorite service-man or taking minutes and taking minutes and taking minutes while organizing such shocking events as the “Battle of the AHS Bands”, the “Student- Teacher Talent Show” and the first (and probably last) “Computer Dance”. These diligent executive board members were known to enjoy the Wednesday afternoon meetings along with the homeroom representatives. At the usual meeting, such topics as, “When is this ever going to get over!”, “Dick, I have to leave early!”, “Speak up! I can’t hear you!”, “Pam, Shut-up!” “Let’s burn the school!”, “Long skirt!”, “Pam, Shut-upV ' “Look, we’re not gonna get outa here until we get this done!” were dis- cussed. Outside the meetings, the homeroom representatives had just about as much fun goofing-up their homeroom talks. Some “goofer” of the year awards go to such famous personalities as Mary Lou Mulcahey, for her stunning performance of innocence when she was rep- rimanded by the president for skipping homerooms, and to Barb Iceton for turning thirteen shades of red during one homeroom talk. All-in-all, the ’67 year was a prosperous one, with only a few threats of impeachment, revolution, murder, and self-destruction. We imagine Mrs. Humm would agree that everyone gained something during the year, if not knowledge, at least a husband. The FRA — Faculty Removal Authority. Lobbyists in Action. 17

Technical- Vocational From left to right; Mrs. Gilbert Wharton, Mr. Edmund Lewis, Mrs. Gertrude Baldwin. In the Technical-Vocational High School, the Stu- dent Council is composed of nine members. Three stu- dents are selected from each department — Electronics, Machine, and Automotive. Meeting with the Director from time to time, the Council discusses with him vari- ous problems and situations. The students not only pre- sent problems affecting their respective trades, but also offer constructive suggestions on matters concerning the whole school. Through this exchange of advice and ideas, teachers and students profit by being able to understand each other better. As a direct result of this communication, the Director and faculty can more readily cope with problems as they arise in the shops and laboratories of the school. Vocational Student Council.
