The 1974 GAA Turnabout Ball, held on the evening of December 18, proved to be a success. The theme was City Sidewalks. The old gymnasium was appropriately dec¬ orated. One hundred twenty couples attended. The queen was Kathi Chakos, se¬ nior, with juniors Annette Ragsdale and Sharon Peek serving as her court. Every junior and senior girl who is a member of the Girls Athletic Association has the opportunity to be queen. Each junior and senior girl who is planning to attend the ball is voted for the position by her peers—her fellow members.

College Day initiated in 1974 Administrators at Calumet High School planned and succeeded in presenting a new facility. The new activity was College Day. Because of its apparent success, the pro¬ gram will probably become an es¬ tablished tradition. Booths were set up in the old gymnasium for representatives of 26 colleges and universities, with leaflets, booklets, and other articles of information. This procedure al¬ lowed students to browse at leisure from booth to booth, discussing any pertinent issue with the repre¬ sentatives present. All juniors and seniors were welcomed to partici¬ pate in the College Day program. RIGHT: Parents chat with faculty member Mr. Dan Alveraz during Parent Day.
