Mr. O'Rourke on Constitution Day, Mr. Williams on the Senior Symposium and Helen Rose Schmid who inspired us all to look at our neighbors with love were three of our speakers. Assemblies Assemblies throughout the year brought a welcome change of pace for the students. They helped to round out the sometimes boring daily routine. Many of the assemblies this year helped to arouse pep among the student body. Others featured musical numbers, often to preview coming events, or speakers who came in to talk to the students on particular topics. Most of the assemblies were held in the auditorium, but many of the others were held in the boys gym. Toto followed the Scarecrow and Dorothy to the yellow brick road on the MEDLEY assembly. Marvin played on the Black History assembly. The judo demonstration was held in the gym. Page Twenty

F.L.I.P.P.E.D., or Female Liberation Idealists Party for Permanent Equality and Democracy, a comedy spoof on Women's Lib, was Dramatic Club's contribution to National Drama Week. In the play, charming Christine Pendleton learned her college age daughter, Niki, had joined a Women's Lib group. Afraid her temperamental, politically-minded husband would be furious, she asked her two older daughters to get Niki to resign, but Niki talked them into joining. The tables were turned on the men, and the play climaxed in a wacky hearing in Night Court where the men learned to respect the girls' beliefs and the girls to respect the men's. Mr. Ferrell, assisted by Gail Harrison as student director, directed the production. We are equal was the rallying cry. The men made good bunnies too. Page Nineteen
