HOMECOMING DANCE Gay laughter and sparkling music set the mood for the homecoming dance, Split-T for Two. BiU Nikkei and the Sky liners filled the gyms with a rhythmic beat, while couples floated by or stood in friendly groups on the side- lines discussing the Homecoming game. The first big dance of the year. Home- coming, stirred high expectations and imaginative dreamings for the year ' s coming social events. The syncopated rhythm of the Skyliners echoes throughout the gyms while couples dance under the dim lights. SOPHOMORE PARTY The class of ' 64 began their years at South with commendable Rebel spirit at the Sophomore party, Outward Bound. Enlivened by the music of Jesse Romero, our newest Southerners showed their exuberance and enthusiasm for the novelty of high school life. Talented Rebs Sally Cawood and Harold Frost provided musical entertainment during the evening, and sophomore spon- sors, Mrs. Hansen and Mr. Conklin, were guests of honor.

PEP CLUB TEA Sophomore girls were welcomed to South by a Pep Club tea early in the fall. Autumn Acquaint- ances, held the first month of school, provided an opportunity for the newcomers to renew old friend- ships and to make new ones. After being greeted by Rita Thompson, president of Pep Club, the girls were entertained with a talent program presented by per- formers from Grant, Merrill and Byers junior highs. The Pepsters then served refreshments of cookies and pvmch in the gym. A tradition at South, Sophomore Tea is always an important social event.
