The words valedictorian and salutatorian are English derivatives of Latin words, Vale meaning Goodbye and salve meaning hello, Originally, the basic function of the valedicto- rian and salutatorian was to deliver the opening and closing remarks, however, this tradition has died somewhat and the two positions are given to the two seniors with the highest grade averages. Besides maintaining high aca- demic scoring, Mary Beth and Cathy were active in many extra-curricular activities. Cathy was involved in National Honor Society as vice-presi- dent. Mary Beth was in several organizations such as Tex-Anns, Human Relations and National Honor Society to name only a few.

Band performs well. Perfection has always been a Crockett Band tradition. A tradition that has built a reputation that few other bands could uphold. This has been another fine year for the band, winning a surplus of awards with their performances. None can be per- fect all the time, and the varsity band was not always perfect. But their per- formances fall in a high category of excellence. The same category of excellence that helped the band receive an invitation to the Happy Birthday America parade in Washing- ton D.C. in 1976. MARCHING BAND. Twirlers: Rhonda Cox and Karen Jones.
