Held on the night of Halloween, the Festival lends an erie enchantment to the familiar surroundings.

With their goal as their Senior trip, underclassmen and Seniors work induslriously to make money throughout each school year. Class members must work as a team in order to get the most work done, in the least amount of time. To do this, committees are formed and every student must do his share of work to make these projects a success. The Freshmen start working for their goal by sponsoring an ice-cream social. When they are Sophomores, classmen check coats during the home ball-games. Selling concessions and magazines gives the Juniors a big boost in their treasury. Earning the last part of the money for their trip, the Seniors sell license plates and sponsor paper drives. Working as a team with one goal in mind, students cry, Washington or bust .

Betty Jones and Bob Robinette pause for refreshments at the Star- dust Ball. Dancing on a cloud, couples waltzed into the early morn as the Stardust Ball came to a close. The dance, which is an annual affair, was sponsored by the Tri-Hi-Y clubs last year. For the past two years the dance has been opened to only club members, but this year it is to be spon- sored by the Student Council, and opened to the entire high school. Under a canopy of lilac and white musicians played never to be forgetten strains of music set to the rhythm of the dancing of club members. The dances were chaperoned by both club sponsors, Mrs. Est- her Hampel, Tri-Hi-Y sponsor, and Mr. Wade Hall, Hi-Y spon- sor, and also by various teachers and parents who enjoyed the evening as much as the students did. Arriving home in a mist of stars,couples found this to be a night filled with wonderful memories that will be treasured for- ever. Of Wonder, Excitement, and Memories In a typical scene of the Stardust Ball many couples dance to beautiful music. A few of the chaperones pose for the camera: Mr. and Mrs. George Cherry, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Lowe, and Nlrs. Jack Alexander.
