Club hosts 2 from abroad We have had more of a chance to broaden our understanding of other countries this year than we have had in any previous year. Never before have we had two foreign students within one year. Ashley Tiffen, from England, and Staffan Holm, from Sweden, have come to be a part of the AFS family. Miss Thelma Whitford, English teacher, is the sponsor of the AFS (American Field Service) program. This program raises money throughout the year to sup- port the foreign students. Seniors Ashley Tiffen and Staffan Holm enjoy themselves at an AFS meeting. Ashley Tiffen, foreign student from England, has been living with the Hoff- mans. Row 1: Susan, David.

Assemblies enhance spirit Spirit was the key word when students attend any of the year ' s pep assemblies. If you didn ' t have spirit when you came in, you left with it. The Band, Steppers and Colorguard performed, and oc- casional skits highlighted the ac- tivities. Special assemblies centered around Homecoming, which included the crowning of the queen, as well as Halloween and 50 ' s Day, when students dressed in the style of the 50 ' s. Most of the assemblies were accented with sports, boosting spirit before the games. Most students felt that they did help cheer the teams on. Above left: Junior Kim Cosner and seniors Pam Ruths, Denise Layton, Kathy A. John- son, and Cindy Dacken concentrate on a routine. Left: Mrs. Rieck takes an active part in a faculty skit.

Students add life to new cafeteria Could I have extra potatoes, please? FU have three chocolate- chip cookies and two cartons of chocolate milk. Such are the conversations that can easily be heard as some 1500 starving students stampede the new cafeteria, after a morning full of stimulating classes. If you can survive the torture of the line, the next feat to ac- complish is finding a seat in a sea full of food-stuffed faces. Groping along the crowded tables in search for a seat, you spy a table in the far corner. More squeezing and excuse me pleases follow until you finally reach your ultimate goal. Ah! At last you can fill your growling tummy! Top left: Laura Strand, Shellie Stufflebeam, Pam Landhuis, and Joy Stroud enjoy their lunch. Bottom left: Sleeping soundly in an endless lunch line are junior Neal Long and senior Margaret Olson. Following them are seniors Carol Johnson and Linda Mos- queda. Bottom right: Students in cafe.
