Thrills and Excitement Cue Year ' s Important Linda Sons, surrounded by all the books she has found necessary during her four years at C.P.H.S., reflects (gladly or sadly?) upon the diploma she holds. Karel Heisterberg, JoAnne Heisterberg, and Barbara Esser, three of the homecoming queen candidates, ride in royal splendor upon the Booster Club’s float in the parade. Fifty-seven was the year Crown Point was selected as a typical mid-western town for a movie scene in a film about flag etiquette. Fea¬ tured in the film was Alton Cochran, past state commander of the American Legion and C.P.H.S. science and math teacher; and about 1200 C.P.H.S.’ers participated in a parade in his honor. Producing and editing the film, with the co¬ sponsorship of the state and national American Legion, was the Indiana University audio-visual department. Another unusual feature of this year’s big” events was the Symphony for Freedom. This pro¬ gram was given by the A Cappella and the Gary symphony orchestra, broadcast by WWCA, and sent to Iron Curtain countries via Radio Free Europe. Established and eagerly anticipated main events include homecoming, the prom, and the main objective of a senior—graduation! Even though these main events take place year after year, they are always big” because a new set of teenagers enjoys them each time.

Seniors direct G.A.A. initiates through worms (spaghetti) during the annual fall initiation. Fifty-Seven Was the Year for Going, Going, Going.. A Merrillville victory marked the last of Crown Point’s Holiday Tourneys. Since hazing was long ago eliminated for the Crown Point students, many harmless and fun¬ giving club initiations mark the beginning of the activity season. When clubs settle down to real business (pre¬ paring citizens for the community), they stress service projects, entertainment (both for adults and students) and education of the personality.” Page twelve
