Displays Class Talents And Beauties Highlighting the 1967 Coronado Court, twelve beau- ties and their escorts were presented in Miss America Pageant style. The junior and sophomore classes were each represented by three girls while six seniors dis- played their elegance and charm to all. The talent performed by each class proved to be a great success. Cherry Clark and Debbie Hull, seniors, provided background piano music throughout the per- formance while Chris French, as a substitute for Bert Parks, served as Master of Ceremonies. Following the Court, the Velveteens, a local combo, provided music for a dance in the cafeteria. Dance dec- orations consisted of an attractive arrangement of a bridge, swan and waterfall covered with red and pink carnations. The Jazz Creation, a brass band composed of Kip Halley and Da.rryl Garrett, saxophones, and Richard Bird, drummer, play More and Can't Buy Me Love.

Boys Enjoy Relaxation During Twirp Week As the number of school days left in the year de- creased, the number of activities and functions definite- ly increased. Boys particularly enjoyed one Week of the spring, Twirp Week, when roles were reversed and girls took on the very tedious and expensive task of being responsible for dates. Although it was a fun time for both, by the end of the week, most were glad to assume their traditional roles. Although the boys enjoyed the rest given their pocketbooks, they find that it can be quite hectic to sit home and wait for a phone call. The girls, though they enjoyed the assurance of having a date, had the fear of being turned down. Seniors were excited at the prospect of graduating and looked with eagerness mixed with anxiety towards the future. Many were looking to another realm of their education-college. Such things as college board tests, college entrance applications and applications for schol- arships were common topics of conversation. Dainis Jirgcnson, senior, discusses with Mrs. Elsye Andress the possibilities of receiving a scholarship as he fills out an appli- cation. Outstanding grades and merit achievements are among his many qualifications. . j.. jjj i.. -as ., . its K K K XV V' kr A .. . . awk? to xi ' .. N , .V -rr.
