CLASS HI TORY Ice Cream Sundaes for Neat Dressers lk cfvlt October 20, I963. Last year Duxbury High School received a lot of unwanted publicity when several girls were suspended for wearing short skirts. Since that time the school's Student Council has estab- lished a dress code. Assistant Principal Ralph Blakeman was so im- pressed with the efforts and excellent results that he decided to encourage the program. He will buy ice-cream sundaes for the iunior high school homeroom with the highest percentage of students dressed neatly for a two-week period. Mr. Blakeman pointed out that the students' appearance has steadily improved since the dress code was established. The student council launched the campaign with posters, stories in local papers, appearances on local radio stations, and pictures of boys before D.C. and after D.C. Fashion experts for young men and women were invited to address the student body. Visiting Duxbury Junior-Senior High School, one is very impressed by the clean-cut, well-dressed, polished students. What do the students think of the code? Eighth-grade cheer- A leader Libby Trezise says, Dungarees and jeans look very sloppy in school. l think if you dress well you act much better. People who dress right concentrate on working. They have more respect for teachers and other students. Jeanne Sencabaugh would like to see every school with a dress code because it changes the students' attitudes, and their appearance makes the school atmosphere nicer. Pam Kent says, Duxbury High boys and girls are cooperating with the dress code and I hope it is a big success. Joyce Blakeman, President of the Junior Student Council, feels the people have a better opinion ofa person who is dressed neatly .
