SADIE HAWKINS CHASE Dog-patch kids gather in the Meetin ' Hall for a dance. For one night a year Clay changes the American procedure of dating. For the annual Sadie Hawkins Dance, the girls take over the responsibilities usually reserved for the boys. She must ask him for the date, provide transportation and pay for tickets and food. March 18, 1967, found Clayites at their best, dressed in Dog-patch attire. Dressed in blue-jeans and sweat shirts, the couples danced to the music provided by the Invaders. Sue Davis and John Reihl were named Daisy Mae and Little Abner for the evening. Justice of the Peace — ' ol Marryin ' Sam Huston. Daisy, here I am, waiting to be caught. ' ' 1 1

MR. IRRESISTIBLE TRADITION Dances have been an annual event at Clay and the Mr. Ir- resistible Dance added to the tradition. The Invaders provided music and the crowning of the most irresistible boy high- lighted the evening. Throughout the day each Y-Teen who talked to a boy was obligated to give that boy a talking ticket which cost her a nickel. The girl who gave out the most tickets was crowned Miss Gabby and the senior girl who best repre- sented her class in Y-Teens was crowned Miss Y-Teen.

A.F.S. BRINGS MASI TO CLAY Masayoshi Ikuma, better known to everyone as Masi, was welcomed by students and teachers as Clay ' s A.F.S. student. Masi ' s American home for the past year was with Charlie Clark; in Japan it was in Tokyo, where he went to Kosei-Gakuen High School. His school was much like ours, although he had twelve subjects instead of six, and he attended school on Saturday. At Clay, Masi ' s classes included U. S. History, English II, Biology I, .Algebra- Trigonometry, and Government-Sociology. Masi gave Clayites the opportunity to learn and understand Japanese culture. Masi is taught a typical American sport by Charlie Clark, his Ameri- can brother. A kiss from Stephanie Stroud for Mr. Personality.
