Throughout Year, We Dance at Hops, Formats Reflecting on the year ' s social events at Man- ual, we see that dances played an important role in extra-curricular activities. The 1960- 61 season began with the Pigskin Prom. Later, the annual Pic Parade featured the crowning of King Ivan and Queen Ann, and gave us a chance to exchange chums. School closed for Christmas vacation with the Choir ' s Snow Whirl, the one all-school formal. Between semesters, Martha and George Washington were crowned at the Cherry Tree Hop, an annual dance given by the Girl ' s Glee Club. Throughout the basketball season, after-game dances were sponsored by Student Affairs Board. March 17 was the date of the ROTC ' s Military Ball. Dances in the cafeteria on both Junior and Senior Days highlighted these two memorable occasions. Later in the spring, were the Junior and Senior Proms. Sharon Smith, Ivian Editor, crowns Larry Short King Ivian at the Pic Parade, sponsored by the yearbook. Lynda Haas wears the crown as Queen Ann. Masoma Jo Ann Kattau crowns Dave Scheib King of the Pigskin Prom, sponsored by the Masoma and Roines. Maurice Kindle, Douglas Coode, and Karen Smith decide to sit this one out at the Snow Whirl formal. Couples enjoy music and dancing at the Snow Whirl Christmas dance, sponsored by the Choir, vacation eve. 19

Homecoming, October 7, at Delevan Smith Field, was made complete by the first win in 15 games for the Ellismen, a 20-7 victory over the Southport Cardinals. The Marching Band, under Director William Kleyla and Drum Major Dennis Eichoff, formed its tra- ditional Block M. The white carpet was rolled out by freshman football players, Victor Jacobs and Robert Cummins, after which Jim Cummings, King Manual VIM, and Queen Bonnie McKinney were crowned by the ' 59 royalty, Sue Hawley and Bob Cooper.

The royal couple were parad- ed around the field in a decorated convertible driven by Jack Simpson. The King and Queen were elected by an all-school vote from Sen- iors nominated by the Class. Other candidates were Lee Foster, Tim Martin, Dick and Tom VanArsdale, Noramae Branham, Alice Hughes, Roberta Perkins, Jan Stephenson.

Manualites Hear Advice on Future Jobs, College Mr. Lewis W. Gilfoy, Supervisor of Secondary Education, answers a question for Judy McBride after his session. Opportunity Day at Manual, which is sched- uled in January, is set aside for looking into the future and thinking about what lies ahead. Manualites attend special sessions to learn of careers and colleges in which they are in- terested. An auditorium speaker in November directed our thoughts to plans for the future; and after this program, we signed up for the Opportunity Day session we preferred. On Opportunity Day, guest speakers from many different businesses gave information on vocations; and representatives from Indiana colleges informed college-bound students of entrance requirements and curricula. Man- ualites acted as chairmen, assisting and intro- ducing the speakers. Our guests were invited to a coffee in the library before their sched- uled meetings. After the programs, the speak- ers toured the building and then were served lunch in our cafeteria by members of the Boys ' Foods Class. Linda Hansen, student chairman for the Butler Univer- sity session; Miss Judy Rodman, Manual teacher; and Mrs. Sheila Broberg, Butler Admissions Counsslor and the speaker, greet Mr. Wallace S. Sims, member of the Board of School Commissioners, who looked-in on our Opportunity Day.
