AS LAURIE HOLZSWEIG admires the new style senior rings, Sonny Jernigan “tries one on for size. As second semester ushered it- self in with snow and “moans”, Truckers began to be awakened with thoughts of spring fever and its excitement. The crowning of Mr. and Miss Churchland, the competition play, and juniors’ or- dering rings were only preludes to the many events of the warm days of spring. SCA elections, science fairs, April 15th and Seniors, outdoor sports, bermuda day, the prom — all converged on CHS as if to reawaken dormant minds to the multitude of school activities. For Seniors, graduation was in sight with its sentiments and mixed emotions. For underclassmen, a year had come to an end with expectations for greater respon- sibility and challenge. ’67 had been a year of the combined ef- fort and achievement of 1300 Truckers, the CHS POTPOURRI. Spring Brings Potpourri of Excitement, Great Expectations for Truckers “UMMMMMM . . .” DOMINIQUE BORRIONE expresses the delight and pleasure of her honorary birthday party, given by the SCA.

Then — there were wrestling and basketball! “Go-go-get’em-get’em- unh!-unh!” was a truly unique Trucker cheer which, along with the energetic performance of the U. S. Navy Show Band, managed to arouse lethargic students, pre- maturely stricken with spring fever. While full exam schedules be- sieged most Truckers, many for- tunate Seniors were rewarded with exemptions. As a relief to every- one snow came, bringing with it extra vacations for all!!!
