Elections were held so many times for just about everything that elec- ting someone or something soon became part of our routine. Students held elections for cheerleaders, Stu- dent Council members and numerous others. By holding elec- tions, we could always be sure that the right candidate or issue was elected. Those of us who were eligible to vote, received the chance to vote in the Presidential election and the city election. By voting, a student felt a sense of responsibility, and if his choice won, he had a feeling of ac- complishment, knowing that his vote counted enough for his candidate to win the election.

Cheryl Baker and her date enjoy a slow dance at the Blue and White ball. Dances Highlight Season Couples sway to the music provid- ed by Kustoms as the traditional Blue and White Ball climaxes the end of football season. Long dresses, tuxes, and colorful corsages made the night special. Many couples went out to eat before the dance at such favorite places as San Francisco Steak House, Time Machine or Boston Sea Party. The music was mostly country and western, and couples felt as comfortable doing the Cotton Eyed Joe as the traditional slow dance. Special awards were given at the Blue and White Ball. Janet Jaeckle was named Outstanding Flag. Outstanding Brahmadora was Cam- mi Uptmore. Cammi was also named Football Sweetheart. John Hendrix captured the title of Mr. Football.
