Education Week Finds Pupils Behind Desk ' Education Adds Up — and during American Education Week many pupils had a f i r s t-h a n d chance to check out the pluses and minuses of teach- ing. The occasion was Turnabout Day, November 10, a day set aside for administrators and faculty to retire and for students to fill their positions be- hind the desk. Knowledge and experience of the administrator ' s responsibilities and the instructor ' s view of the class are the aims of Turnabout Day. Top seniors were chosen to fill the high administrative offices. Princi- pal David Potter toured the building with Mr. Wayne Kincaid and visited classes, viewing the teaching of other turnabouts. Vice-principal Vangie Baker got an inside look at the complicated matter of program- ing classes while Jeanine Kent, also a vice-prin- cipal, learned the problems of building and grounds administration. Aside from the formal aspect of the day, teacher counterparts were privileged to lunch in the teach- ers ' Cafeteria or dine out as guests of their re- spective bosses. Everyone participating in the clay ' s activities was invited to an informal afternoon tea sponsored by the Home Economics Department. Principal for a day, David Potter, who assumed the duties of Mr. Wayne Kincaid, is being informed of his tasks. Jeanine Kent and Vangie Baker who were vice-principals ' ' look on.

Homecoming Activities Fete Royalty, Alums A regal Homecoming procession, a football victory over Broad Ripple, and an after-game dance high- lighted Homecoming evening, making October 21 standout in the minds of all Manualites. Forming the traditional Block M, the Redskin Marching Band officially launched the gala half- time ceremonies with a chorus line of 18 twirlers performing. James McDaniel and Steve Barteu, fresh- man football players, unrolled the royal carpet for the candidates to travel to midfield. Climaxing the evening, Principal Wayne Kincaid announced King Manual XIV and his Queen — Kim Richards and Karen Clark. Mr. Wendell Mertz, Choir Director, sang Queen of Manual High and Girl of My Dreams accompanied by the Girls ' Glee Club. The royalty and their court returned to converti- bles, decked with red and white s-treamers, and en- circled the field once more for all to see. Celebrating the reign of the newly-crowned roy- alty, the Homecoming Dance concluded the evening. Adding to an emotion-filled evening, the Glee Club sings Queen of Manual High as the royalty walk to the regal car.

' Carousel ' Goes Round for Music Makers Seated on the carousel, Melanie Schubert and Paulette Brehob smile to their beaux beside them, Cliff Sutt and Charles Perry. For the cast and hopefully the audience too, the November 18 and 19 production of Carousel pro- vided moments of laughter and tears in the Rogers and Hammerstein ' s tradition of musical hits. Mem- bers of the Music Department started in early Octo- ber tuning their instruments and voices to try-out lor positions on stage or in the pit orchestra. When rehearsals got into full swing, Paulette Brehob and Charles Perry found themselves singing If I Loved You to each other in the leading roles as Julie and Billy. Mike Allee protrayed the vidian as wharf-rat Jigger Craigin and the comic touch was added by Mr. and Mrs. Snow, Cliff Sutt and Melanie Schubert. Supported by a cast of seafaring scalawags and shy ladies, the performers created moods of both gaiety and sadness from the rollick- ing This Was A Real Nice Clambake to the in- spiring You ' ll Never Walk Alone. Under the direction of Jerry Hurst, stage mana- ger, the stage crew constructed a four-horse car- ousel that rotated on stage during a pantomine set to music. Art pupils designed posters for advertising while make-up crews readied the grease paint. Whether musicians with scores, performers with scripts, or publicity workers with tickets, the com- bination of these varied skills and talents made Carousel ero ' round for another musical success. Give it to ' um good Carrie shouts the girls ' chorus to Senior Melanie Schubert as she chases the mischievous boys away from the picnic baskets and hurries them off to the clambake. 10
