'Vhe Columbia City TUCll'C8ll' teen was organized and its consti- tution written by high school stu- tlents last year with the help of an .tdult cotrtmittee. With Cliff Bal- yeat Qcenterj as president, and Mrs. Jones fleltj and Mrs. Travel- bee Qrightj as hostesses it has con- tinued to operate successfully. The Canteen has made a pleasant spot for teen-tigers to play, and at the sarne time has proved their ability to make and abide hy their own laws. AND BETTER C One of the solutions to teen-age accidents is driver training classes in high schools. Mr. Johnson and Miss Stansburgteachstudents safety and courtesy as well ashow to oper- ate a car in these classes. Mr. Johnson, Tony L e fko w ic L, Jack Washburn and Steve Pence are a- bout to leavein the dualcontrolled car donated by the Gene Reeg Motor Sales. TIZENS Under Miss Carver's supervision, the Vocational Information class prepared a petition asking permis- sion to replant trees on the Court House lawn. It was presented to Commissioners John Groves, Lee Plattner and Samuel Frembly by representatives from the class. The project gave students practice in meeting county officials and showed their interest in the com- munity. -l L 'X uf- 'I-I For the first time in several years the sen- ior class sponsored Freshman Day in C. C, H, S, Unfortunately upper classmen Rolland Gipson, Chet Simon, Charlie Gibson, Tony Lefkowicz, and Cliff Balyeat forgot to shine their shoes the night before, so they have formed an assembly line, and freshmen Max Goldwood, Russell Erne, Eugene Brown and Roger Bridge are quic kly getting the job done before the bell rings.

Mrs. Lois Murphy and Barbara Carver are filling a sack for room 4, a freshman homeroom, which collected the most clothing. vu. , f lv-Nl I L l CLUBS AND CLASSES I mi.

But when Joan Felger could no longer shut her door without the help of another student, she decided the time had come. It's a pretty hopeless job, because next weekit will just need itagain--oh well, there's always manana. INCIDENTS Doing exercises on the football field is one thing, but doing finger-exercises in typ- ing class is all-together d iffere nt!

Their new outfits of maroon sweaters and gold skirts were bought by the Booster Club, Four-thirty and everything is quiet, except the sound of Jake's broom sweeping the lower hall. Jake's called on to do everything from cleaning up dropped bottles of ink to having his picture taken for the annual. Ile merely says it's all in the day's work, and then goes on sweeping.
