As I gaze into my magic mirror, a mist appears- it clears away-what is it I see? Oh, yes, the fresh- lll9ll4Ol19 hundred and sixty-six in all-and a fine looking bunch, too. I must say. Let's follow them for awhile and see a bit ot their extra activities. Is this a conference, or what appearing? Now that it's clearing I see Giea Bennett. president: Gail Tuttle. vice-presidentg and Bernita Robinson, secre- tary. They are talking with the class sponsors: Miss Fitch. Miss Scott, and Mrs. Glenny, about their class activities. Their Christmas party was held in the high school cafeteria. where they played games: namely, chinese checkers, bingo, and ping pong. A program was enjoyed by all and prizes were given to the winners of a quiz contest. Their spring party, held in the high school cafe- teria. was a great success. Do you. too. hear music? That's easily solved, for the freshmen were well represented in the band, glee club, and mixed chorus. Several participated in the musical. Tune In. Wonder what that thudding could be-stairs- people-gym. 'Twas the coach selecting the fresh- men basketball team. Keith Perrin, Bob Patterson, Bill Myers, Joseph Larson. Robert Keene, and Junior Jolliff were members of the squad who played Osceola. and Indianola. Successful this year-watch them next year. The freshmen also proved themselves athletes on the football field during practice. Several girls ioined G. A. A. and Girl Reserves. They served well in both organizations. Now lets watch the girls interclass basketball tournaments. The freshmen got to the finals: their team consisted of Violet Stevenson. Evelyn Delpierre, Maxine Massman, Doris Jean Hart, Faye Wilhite, Iris Allen. and Maxine Johnson. I see by my magic mirror, that the freshmen were well oriented by the end of the year. R. N.
