Dick Gaines steps up to receive his letter trom Mr. Kosich. Deserving athletes who earned their letters through participation in a varsity sport received letters at the lettermen's assembly. Participation, sportsmanship, and attitude toward others are some of the deciding factors as to whether a boy merits a letter and a membership in Lettermen's Club. Mike Fraser, Joe Parks, Jim Schneider, and Dave Wallace entertain at BHS pep assemblies with folk music. Pep assemblies are important in adding school spirit at BHS. Cheerleaders lead the crowds in singing Hail with Pep Club assisting. The coaches are asked to speak and an entertaining skit is presented. Although more students should partici- pate, BHS is lucky to have such good spirit. Lettermen Add To School Spirit Students watch as West High Bears are dumped in the trash can. — v - 20

Other chairmen were Jacquie Backman in charge of decorations, Robin Leischner in charge of selling tickets, Yvonne Peters in charge of publicity, and Joan Schrupp in charge of refreshments.
