Lance Expresses Personalities The Lance came to a rolling start this year with a super- duper edition of the Calhoun Academy newspaper that covered every subject from the first football team to the state of Mr. Brandenburg's love life. Many observative students also noticed fewer ads and more news and sport coverage. This was a very welcomed change. Be- cause of the fewer ads, however, the staff was forced to operate on a tight budget. “As the Cotton Crows , a pa- per to paper serial written by the senior English com- position class was the most popular article of the year and provided for many laughs to students who were not to niave to de-cipher the characters. The second edition brought a continuation of the story as well as a report on the valentines of the first and sec- ond grades. Extensive coverage of the four basketball teams made up the bulk of the paper. Much credit for a very successful newspaper year must be given to many active reporters, but especially to Virginia Gressette, Edi- tor, and Mrs. Patricia Morris, advisor. While checking on the status of some overdue coverage stories, editor Virginia Gressette is amused by one of Glenda Chastain's wisecracks.

Beta Bees Busily Buzz This year the Beta Club took on seven new memoers ... the initiation was planned by the old members and the advisor, Mr. Jeff Reid. It was decided that these soph- omores would be Beta Bees. The Bees had to take part in several activities, including eating honey in front of the entire school. Afterwards everyone got started with various projects in order to go to the State Beta Convention where they had a marvelous time. The club officers are President Ken Feryus, Vice-Presi- dent Susie Lowder, and Secretary-Treasurer Rose Mary Inabinet. Beta Bees Claire Wannamaker and Mary Stewart Knight are buzzing about their initiation. ght-ROW ONE-Renee Buyck, Rama Hooper. Glenda Chastain. Ken Feryus.

During a lull Anne Harvin Whetstone refuses to look on as Wallace Walling molests Karen Prickett behind the other candy stand. Student Council is Non—conformist The student council spent the seventy-five school year trying, usually unsuccessfully, to reform old or out-dated rules and regulations that they felt were un-just or not properly enforced. The council gained a whole new pop- ularity with the lower and upper school students when they added fast-selling Rinkles and Super Nuts to their line of quality snacks. Break and lunch always found two or three council members on their toes and very busy tending the illegal hangout , better known as the candy stand. Detention-prone students who loitered here usually found that the other students appreciated the increase in the cleanliness of the bathrooms . The council members did a little work of their own when April showers turned into May Court, as they sponsored one of the best that many long time May Court attenders had seen to date.
