opotlight On You As You Participate Is the gang all here? Yea, man! School activities got off to a rocking start as the Student Council sponsored a Friendship week early in September. At the conclusion of the week, new sophomores were clued in on their first Bay High event, the Friendship dance at the Youth Center. As a result of the Friendship dance, the membership of our Youth Center was greatly increased. Old and new members alike came again and again to enjoy, not only dancing, but also ping-pong, pool, various card games, or just sitting around watching T.V. and catching up on the latest gossip. Al- ways from the juke box you could hear Paul Anka crooning “Put Your Head on My Shoulder,” or Bo Diddly pounding out “Say man.” During football season, our school spirit rose to an all time high as we cheered the Tornadoes on to victory. As a highlight of football season, many alumni returned for the annual homecoming activities. Baytowners proved that they were inter- ested not only in their own pleasure but al- so in the welfare of others as they filled Christmas baskets for the needy, supported the Church Crusade, and worked diligently in the Polio Drive. Early in December, the Seniors began to plan for the yearly Christmas Ball which was held at the beautiful new Panama City Marina. The dance was a great success and really put us all in the mood for Christmas. Later in the year, the Juniors had a chance to try to outshine the Seniors as they prepared for the Junior-Senior Prom. Both Seniors and Juniors entertained capacity crowds as they presented their class plays. We remember also some of our crazy fads, like bongo drums, desert boots, and beatnik slang. As graduation comes around, we look back with mixed emotion and re- live the wonderful activities we took part in this year. We also look forward to the future and the promise of rewards that we know it will bring. Page Eleven
