Okay Darrell, now this is the best way to get there. Go down the hall, turn left, and five steps past the water fountain is the boys wash- room, directs Carl Traicoff. And here we have the Chief custodian, that little ole floor sweeper Gene Climer, posing as Mr. Warrior to get attention. Erna Dease looks in disgust at the photographer who caught these two couples in a tender mood. Bill Yeager is filling in for Woody. Heh . . . Where is he? Joyce Beasley has Ford Fischer under her wings, but he doesn ' t seem to mind. Finding it difficult to play The Stripper on the tuba, Jackie Lasater fakes it while keeping an eye on the crowd during half time. This well-known twosome, Don Millington and Kay Parker, are always seen together at the dances. Here they demonstrate the Ba- varian chicken dance.

Social Activities Break Humdrum of Classwork In high school, studying and home- work are not the only activities and academic achievement is not the only goal . Students at Calumet are experts in the art of enjoying and making the most of extracurricu- lar programs. Teenagers are all young crazy and full of life and the students here are by no means an exception to this rule. The next few pages de- pict the embarassing frantic mo- ments that some freshman, sopho- more, junior, or senior would pre- fer to forget, but is funny when it happens. While the Taxmen ' s beat goes on, playboy Bob Aug- ust asks, Where ' s the action, Jack? . . . Joyce . . . uh, what ' d-ya say your name was? She replies, Ju- dy ' s the name Tim . . . uh, Paul . . . uh, Dennis? Singing Up, up and away with G.A.A., Jan Hinkle supplements her income by moonlight- ing with the Omens . Baron Von Yeager, sided by his valets Ford Fischer and Mike Cheek, prepares to dive 100 feet into a thimble of yogurt.

i jyw Varied Activities Con Shall we play catch or dance? Maybe a new dance has been invented here, as Vicky Lee, Larry Young, and Bev- erly Lee demonstrate. WLTH radio personality, Hoot Gibson, congratulates the student body over the PA system after Calumet finished first in the School of the Year contest and announces the winners of individual prizes. Jackie Simunic and Yvonne Berbesque, The Gold Dust Twins, do the shingaling at the Battle of the Bands dance. Much work is involved with the annual Polio Drive. Joe Ring busies himself taping lids on containers used for the Senior project, while Beverly Wilkerson totals the money collected for the day. Shame on you, Mr. Schmidt, says Mr. Schmidt ' s con- science to Mr. Schmidt. If I told you once I ' ve told you a thousand times, don ' t sit on the potato chips!
