Pattie Crockett and Ann Young were the advisers for this fast-growing club which was comprised of 45 members. The club met once or twice a week at either the Las Vegas Racquetball Club or the Las Vegas Sporting House. It was hoped that other high schools might form a racquetball club so that in the future they might be able to compete. A Russel Skelton swoops low for a serve to his opponent.

Aviotion Club Bononzo Students Toke to the Skies Who would wash airplanes as a fund-raising activity? The new Aviation Club, that's who! Aviation Club members washed ten single-engined planes at fifteen dollars each for their first fund-raising activity this year. They received S150 for their efforts. The club was organized by Mark Rojas in an effort to help all those students at Bonanza who were interested in learning more about aviation. Besides just learning about aspects of avi- ation such as aerodynamics and meteorology, and being pro- vided with an orientation into careersin the tield of aviation, club members were able to gain practical flying experience. Once a week Mr. Rojas would take two or three students on a tour of the skies above Las Vegas. The Aviation Club was also involved with school activities. At Bonanza's tirst annual Mardi Gras they sponsored a booth in which students threw darts at balloons. Prizes were hidden inside the balloons with the grand prize being a ride into the wild blue yonder, ofcourse.
