OCTOBER It was the Key Club to the rescue. When an over- crowded parking lot forced the football fans to park on the front lawn, there was the Key Club directing traffic. Then, when thirsty girls basketball fans developed parched throats from yelling, they were present again, this time selling cokes. With so many football fans, naturally the ground be- hind the stands got dirty. The Senior Tri-Hi-Y coped with this problem by cleaning up during KOPE week, Klean Our Polluted Environment. Although the janitors had been there first, the girls found their share of trash and also put up posters to discourage further Uttering. The senior Tri- Hi-Y held their induction ceremony in October at the Victoria Presbyterian Church. During Homecoming Week they also sold spirit chains. The entire Yearbook Staff and three girls from the Literary Magazine Staff spent a weekend at Charlottesville in October. They attended special classes at the University of Virginia, sponsored by the Virginia High School League. The ' 76 Sword and Shield won a first place award. The Marching Chargers hustled every Tuesday and Thursday afternoon after school to learn and perfect new routines and music. Between times the majorettes, color guard, and pom-pom squad were kept busy making their new black and white uniforms. Although they stayed at school practicing, the Marching Chargers also traveled. They competed in the state fair in Richmond and every Friday night performed at football games. The SCA sponsored the big fall social event, the Harvest Dance. Students, dressed in everything from leisure clothes to formats, boogied to the music of the Artistics. For one week music played over the intercom before school in the morning and posters lined the halls. They publicized the sale of the ' 77 Sword and Shield. Before, during, and after school, faculty and students could buy on either plan A, pay in advance, or plan B, pay on two installments. This early selling indicated how many books should be ordered. i Key clubbers Kelly Thomas and Haywood Hendricks sell drinks at a basketball game in order to raise dub money. BIG BEGINNINGS 18 Clubs
