Beth Marshall and Gary Miller wait for Mr. Kies to check off their scheduled classes. Acoustical walls and ceiling, orange carpeting, a silent heating system and three new practice rooms completely transformed the band room. Self registration, the scramble system , new colorful lockers, orange and black seats in the audi- torium, a new press box, remodel- ing the band room, a new gym floor and the construction of the skill center, all add to the building of our rainbow. These improve- ments have boosted the spirit of both students and faculty. The 1972 bond issue promised DeVilbiss many of these additions, including the accoustical ceilings and lights which were installed in 1974. The DeVilbiss skill center was financed by this bond issue also and last spring construction began on the $2,800,000 project. Several types of vocational classes will be offered to all Toledo high school students. The cafeteria established a fan- tastic new system called the scramble system. There is much more selection of food and faster moving food lines. Students ate at various brightly colored tables with matching chairs. New blue, orange, rust, and beige lockers brought brightness to the halls. Students received the responsibi- lity of figuring out their own sched- ules for the first time. Each student filled out the classes and teachers that he preferred. Underclass pic- tures, locker assignments and car registrations were all taken care of immediately after registration. Since faculty and students worked together, registration was a real success. Replacing last year ' s burned press box, this new one was completed the first week of school What a disgusting sight! Mark Walden agrees the new in time for the football season which started September 14th. lockers are badly needed. OPENING SECTION 5

Many TADS have participated in bicentennial activities. The art classes painted 15 fire hydrants in red, white and blue and the Happy 200th Birth day America fence. Mrs. K. Genzman ' s lettering class designed the bicentennial bulletin board in Mr. A. Feldstein ' s room. The bulletin board contains copies of the Articles of Confederation which Mr. Feldstein received from the Archives in Washington D.C. A group of advanced drama stu- dents wrote the script for the 1976 Bicentennial Follies. The Fol- lies are made up of skits who ' s subjects date from 1776 to 1976. French students studied the in- fluence of French people on the history of the United States and of the Toledo area. Leaving Promenade Park on a boat ride with the 1776 flag, Denise Russell points out the Toledo skyline to David Plawsky. 1 Staple It on! Neil Sperling works on the bulletin board in Mr. A.
