Students gain satisfaction through volunteer work Participating in a rewarding experience, Carolyn Freeh serves her community while working at Lutheran Hospital as a volunteer. Happy satisfaction was the mood which filled the hearts of EHS teenagers who took time out of their busy schedules to serve their community. Many girls spent long hours serving as candy stripers in the local hospitals, or working at the State School. Y-Teen members cared for the children whose parents visited the Christ Child Festival during the Christmas sea- son and gave an Easter Egg Hunt for the Allen County Chil- dren ' s Home. Students represented Elmhurst on the Allen County Safety Council and the High School Heart Board. A large number of Trojans donated their efforts to aiding Elmhurst ' s busy faculty. FTA members used part of their spare time to grade papers for teachers. This service not only was appreciated by the teachers, but gave the club members a chance to gain useful experience for their future professions. Others assisted by collecting absence slips and helping in the office. An extremely important job at Elmhurst was that of being a hall monitor. Their duty was to assist any visitors who were in the school building and see that order was kept in the halls. ■■ ' ■•■ ' ,■»«■■« if Susie Exner and Greg Pease of the Allen County Teenage Safety Council accept an award for exceptional safety practices.

Trojan school day revolves around classes, friends. At last! sighed Elmhurst students when the time came to break the routine of serious study and enjoy a few moments of fun and excitement. Each afternoon for four long weeks strains of On the Street Where You Live rang out from the stage as amateur actors and actresses rehearsed for the fall production of My Fair Lady. Friday pep sessions led by the spirited cheerleaders gave the student body a chance to unite and boost their team to victory saying, Trojans, we ' re backing you! There is no simpler form of leisure than con- versation, and though it is supposedly a gift given to females, the masculine population of Elmhurst seemed to be quite en- dowed with it. Every weekend, dates, basketball and football games, record hops, and parties provided recreation and re- laxation for the teens who had studied and worked so hard throughout the week. Whatever the activity, the mood of the leisure time of most Trojans was one of happiness and con- tentment. Rehearsing diligently, Trojan actors and actresses practice for the opening night of My Fair Lady . Learning the skills of conversational French enables students to broaden their knowledge of foreign countries. Talking is a favorite pastime of all teens and Elmhurst pupils show that they are no exception.
