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.

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

Moms, Dads Number Among Our Best Fans Many of our parents are ardent Manual fans and follow Redskins ' performances on the big auditorium stage, as well as on the field and in the gym. They really help out when they become members of the Parent-Teachers Association and Dads Club. These organiza- tions have as their sole purpose aid to Man- ual. They work together to sponsor projects which provide fun and entertainment for Manualites and also raise money for various extras around the school and for scholarships. This year ' s big money-making projects helped to finance the installation of the equipment used in our new television classes. The P-TA ' s one big activity, the annual Pow Wow, April 28, included a supper in the cafeteria, games and booths in the gym, and a vaude- ville show, presented by students, in the audi- torium. Dads Club members manned the con- cession stands at Delevan Smith Field during football season, and at the gym during basket- ball season. Their annual fish fry, in Septem- ber, and the Italian Spaghetti Supper in Feb- ruary, also helped the Dads meet their budget. Manualites try for lucky-numbered fish for prizes at the Pow Wow.
