School Spirit Initiated By Jr. Joycettes Generating school spirit was the by word of the Junior Joycettes. They sold football ribbons with a twofold purpose—first, to motivate interest in school activities, and secondly, to raise money for their many other projects. Members made table decorations for the loun¬ ges, cafeteria and offices. These arrangements were in keeping with seasonal activities. Cookies were put in the teachers ' lounges at Christmas and Valentine ' s Day. Two music shells were purchased for the Choral Department by the Junior Joycettes. In striving for a better community, the Joycettes collected for heart fund and on tag day. Boxes were filled with gifts for Vietnamese children, and at Christmas time gifts were brought to el¬ derly people. The Junior Joycettes helped the Jaycees in the Greater Greensboro Open Golf Tournament in the spring. Our Jaycette club furnished the students with fight ribbons for all the Smith football games. Sarah Parrish, and Kathy Christy help Joycettes make pumpkins for Hallowe ' en de¬ corations. 126

One of her major responsibilities this year was fill¬ ing friendship boxes for the benefit of children overseas. Books for servicemen overseas, visits to the home for elderly citizens, hospital volunteer work, and packing gift boxes for children in war-torn countries, are but a few of the services rendered by this group of girls. In April, the Red Cross took charge of our assembly program and members baked cookies for the teachers. Members of the Red Cross work diligently stuffing enve¬ lopes with Christmas seals. 125

Jay cees Help With G.G.O. Tournament Junior Jaycees, advised by Mr. Edgar Snider, have taken giant steps in bettering school and community. They collected for tag day and for the heart fund.
