JANUARY and FEBRUARY Mid-Year Mania Band members formed a dub so that they could add a little life to the task which they performed each day. The first meeting of the Band Club was held in January, and was attended by sixty -five members and sponsor C. B. Haskins. Eighteen band students traveled to Robius Junior High School in Richmond to participate in the District Hi All Regional Band Auditions on January 15. Of the eighteen who tried for AH Regional Band, two placed in the Sym- phonic Band: Bernard Tisdale first chair and Lawrence Moran sixth chair. Carrie Jennings placed twelfth chair, Tony Jones first chair, Judy Davis second chair and Patricia Carter twenty-first chair. Sallie BaskervHie was a first alternate. SCA members Jeannie Jeter and Tony Jones met with the school board at their monthly meeting. The Pep Club attended all or as many basketball games as possible to support the cheerleaders and the players. With the coming of February, various dubs found ways to celebrate Valentine ' s Day. Three clubs participated; the Senior Tri-Hi-Y, the French Club, and the Junior Tri-Hi-Y. The Senior Tri-Hi-Y held their annual Sweetheart Con- test for three days, students voted on male students by dropping money into the container of their choice. On Valentine ' s Day Chris Francis was announced the Sweet- heart of the Year. As people left the Senior Tri-Hi- Y table, they proceeded to the French Club ' s quarter of the lobby and tried for French Kisses. Students were given candy kisses if they drew hearts from the box. Hurried by the urgency to get in the last dead line, the yearbook staff again called for the aid of Jimmy Gee to take club pictures. Giving up an entire day, staff members ushered all dubs to the gym for a picture-taking session. The DECA Chapter attended the leadership conference at Richmond. Members of DECA Chapter participated in ten different categories against fifty-two schools from the Capital District, only placing in two. Students who placed were Wanda Overton, third place Job interview I, and Linda Lyons third place Job Interview .
