Ll Bringing a variety of events and popular parties, the Vet's Club was open to all, having both vets and nonveterans as members. Participants in this well-known group had high morale and energy and kept them- selves involved in many college activi- ties. One of their events, The Gong Showj' was held on April 28, 1977. Although at first there was little out- side interest and no auditions because uno one showed up, the night of the show brought 13 acts. It also brought a packed auditorium with people of all ages smushed against the walls, squat- ting in the aisles, and freezing in lines that trailed out the doors. The club's hard work to get the show ready, their worrying about who was going to do the entertaining, and their publications, all payed off- as the audience broke in- to tears of laughter, yelled gong 40 Vet's Club 'em! , or applauded loudly. Just as The Gong Show was open to the public, many of the club's other activities were of benefit to the com- munity. The gym turned into a hospi- tal for two days in March as the Vets sponsored the annual Bloodmobile. Students and faculty competed to see which group could donate the greatest number of pints. The students won and received half of a day off as a re- ward. BOCES fBoard of Occupational Co- operation Educational Schoolsl special education students came to Cayuga for the annual Christmas party held in the cafeteria. There were refreshments, presents, and entertainment for every- one, with much of it donated by area merchants. At the end of the year, the Vets took leftover money and did some- thing tor themselves. This meant a social to end all socials, with kegs in supply until they ran out of money or got tired of partying, whichever came first. Their Go for Broke kegger was held in Sterling, N.Y., and lasted three full days. Tents were set CHILDREN CLUSTER 'ROUND as Larry Brown dons a red suit and passes out pres- ents.

- f the Art Guild gets its way, Cayuga C3 students may have to knock before walking in- to the art room. Hoping to add an authentic flavor to the new mini-course, Figure Drawing, the club asked to hire professional models who would pose nude. At first it looked like their re- quest would be granted, but an admin- istrative disagreement slowed down the final decision. Although similar courses are offered in colleges and un- iversities all over the country, some ad- PERFORMING A NATIVE UKRAINIAN DANCE at Auburn High School are Nancy Pesarchick, Debbie Walawender, Dorothy Walawender, Denise Baim, Luba Drochak, and Nancy Fallet. ininistrators felt that our community wasn't ready to accept this type of course as art. It was suggested that models wear bathing suits, leaving the unseen anatomy to each artist's imagi- nation. The Guild, however, felt this would defeat the whole purpose of the course and continued their campaign with articles and polls. The controversy went on, but no decision was reached, and the uncertainty lasted into the sec- ond semester. Between their attempts to get nude models for the school, the Art Guild became involved in other projects. Most obvious to the student body was the display set up in the foyer of the library. With the work of talented student artists displayed on large l table partitions, the library becarr visually stimulating. The club also took a field trip ' Wettlaufers' well-known potters ii nearby Skaneateles.
