By holding mock trials and debates with other schools, we furthered our education in law. And by being members of the Law club, we found ourselves guilty of enjoying ourselves in the process. 31

Indian club Indian club enjoyed a very active year. We became involved in various projects and went on several trips. Our club, which was open to all students, was established to learn more about Indian culture. We went to many places, including the Indian villages at Anadarko, the southwest Plains Indian Museum and the play Indians , put on by Tulsa Junior College and the Indian Theatre Co. Money earned from a successful bake sale went to order sweatshirts with Indian club insignia. We also had plans to paint a mural in co-sponsor Allyne Verkins' room depicting Indian culture. With our active participation from members and sponsors, Indian club enjoyed a productive year. Christian fellowship We met nearly every activity period to pray, sing and study the Scriptures. We wanted to provide a place away from the rush where Christians who felt the need could get support in their faith. At some of our meetings we had guest speakers from local churches to lead us in discussion and worship. We always took time to pray for each other and our school. Some people criticized us for violating separation of church and state because many of us tried to convert fellow students, but we felt we were just excerising our right to free speech. 30 Indian club: Front rowg Co-s onsorJod Fli o Neeley, Tracy Scott, Michelle Willis, Kim row: Dovey Wolford, Mike Harp, Asenath P Y PP 1 Co-sponsor Allyne Verkins, Swake.

LJ- We were the ones who ran around the nature center taking care of the animals and their habitat. Some of us also worked on nature centers at different elementary schools. We tried to establish something that students could use in the future years as well as in the present. We continued to have newspaper and aluminum can drives, even though most people at BTW didn't know about them. We spent a lot of our time away from school: we went to the Illinois River, Spring Creek, the Salt Plains and other places around Oklahoma and Arkansas where we could study and enjoy nature. Last summer, some of us went to Colorado to spend a week in the San Juan Mountains at the Phillips University Science Camp. We wanted people to know about our club, so we had the National Art Honor Society paint a logo on the Ecology pre-fab. At the beginning of this year, we concluded that everything is connected and depends on each other. So we worked as a team - with ourselves and with nature.
