The CHARHIAN Talent Scout In a talent assembly presented February 4. many juniors showed their talent to the student body. With the junior play well establish ed in memories we are proud to note how much talent the class has. To begin the assembly. Joyce Walters sang a duet. Bicycle Built for Two. with a sophomore. Jo- anne Willard. Mary Lou Terwilli- ger. also with sophomore’s help, gave a song and dance routine. Three Litttle Sisters.” Wayne Pede gave a vocal arrangement of Trees. Kenneth Dickinson play- ed a guitar duet with a senior. Gerry Face. Barbara Lewellyn and Donna Livingston combined talents with a senior for a quartette at Winter Wonderland. Phyllis Smallwood assisted as accompanist. Remember the humorous Junior play incidents? It just happened at the dress rehearsol matinee that the bell did’nt ring to interrupt the intended stage kiss of Phyllis Smallwood and Milford Mason. Russell Santee on a ladder didn't see any further use for a pair of pliers. He dropped them into space which contained Douglas Gam's head. You guessed it! Doug’s only remark was. Santee, you couldn’t have done better if you’d tried. The first time Pete Kardel in his role of Old Doc” had a stroke, he fell off the edge of the couch because it was too short for him.

By this I mean rais- ing sufficient funds for the annual junior-senior prom, and a great deal toward financing our senior trip. Our first method of raising money was by selling hot dogs at football games. This was a great help, but we attained most of our funds through magazine sales in co-opera- tion with the Crowell-Collier maga- zines companies. We passed our goal. This has been accomplished only twice in our school's history. The junior play. Old Doc”, brought us a great profit, with more than 1.500 people attending. Speaking for the whole junior class. I should, at this time, like to thank our advisers. Mrs. Iauch, Miss Taffee, Mr. Straw and Mr. Stall, who have helped us a great deal the past year by being friends as well as advisers. I should also like to thank the class for the co- operation in all the activities through the year. I hope the pres- ident next year is shown the same amount of enthusiasm. Sam Colizzi.

Among many of the various activities which we promoted were a dance sponsored by us after a home game and a hay ride that was enjoyed by all. A great percentage of Charlotte's iootball. basketball and track teams were made up of sophomores. We trust that a number of these ath- letes will be stars in the following years. The girls as well as the boys have taken part in sports, such as basketball, softball and bowling. Many sophomores are members of the cadet and senior lands. We deeply appreciate the labor and effort of our advisers and wholeheartedly extend our thanks to Mrs. Kiplinger. Mr. Powell. Mr. Huston and Miss Wells. I)an Dickinson. Sophomore President.
