Is Recognition The underclassmen strive to get recognition from seniors by partici- pating in activities and also com- peting with one another to acheive better school spirit. The freshmen class gets to know upperclassmen and fellow freshmen at the annual frosh ' mixer. As the years roll on sophomores traditionally order rings and wear them as juniors. The underclass officers were chosen by their fellow students to lead them through another year of activities and problems. Next years underclass will con- sist of sophomores and juniors, as the last freshmen class fades through the halls of ’69.

Happiness Is Senior Year You really think a lot now that you’re a senior. You’re at a turning poirtt of your life and before you go forward, you have to look back at all the influences that have molded your personality and character as you’ve grown. A senior has expanded as much as he can in high school. The idea of friendship has been formed, morals and principles are defined, and the academic effort put forth has been set. Leaving the security of high school and striking out on your own will put you into many unfamiliar situa- tions with their accompanying prob- lems. These new experiences lead you into further development of your character as an intelligent young adult.
