Mrs. Robert Land serves a Manual fan from one of the P-TA ' s two concession stands at Delavan Smith Field. The crowds wander back and forth between the bleachers and the stands for popcorn, sandwiches, soft drinks, and coffee. Junior John Stroud is assisting Mrs. Land. Moms, Dads, Teachers Work Together for Extras Our moms, dads, and teachers work behind the scenes at Manual to provide extras for which no official funds are available. The P-TA ' s concession stands are popular places during the football season. The Dads Club operates the refreshm ent counter in the gymnasium during the basketball season. Dads Club also made money sponsoring the WIFE- Faculty basketball game in February. Moms and Dads both helped with the Fall and Spring Athletic Banquets. P-TA and Dads Club funds pay for such tilings as uniforms, the school bus, scholarships, and summer work shop and camp fees. In April the P-TA had the annual Pow Wow, the biggest money-raising event of the year. Many school clubs participated by setting up shops in the gym- nasium -- the carnival part of the affair. They sold assorted items to Redskins and visitors; and spon- sored gaming booths. Parents served dinner in the cafeteria and sponsored a variety show in the audi- torium and a Pow-Wow dance in the cafeteria. The February meeting of the P-TA celebrated the National P-TA Anni- versary. Mrs. Claude Dodson and Mrs. James Phillips preside at the serving table where decorated birthday cakes are the appropriate refreshment for the occasion.

Auditorium Programs Supplement Our Classes The Indianapolis Symphonic Orchestra entertain Redskins with selections from My Fair Lady during an auditorium. Manuals ' auditorium schedule for the year rep- resented wide fields of interest ranging from musical programs to holiday convocations. Opening the season was the Tee Pee Talent Parade. Seniors Becky Haas and Bob Sterrett acted as Masters of Ceremonies for forty minutes of songs, dances and commercials — Redskin Revue tryouts. I ' ve Got A Secret, based on the television show by that name, was the theme of the Ivian auditorium which kicked off the sales campaign for Ivian sub- scriptions. The program gave a sneak preview of materials to be covered in the yearbook. In an unusual show, one of the few Bohemian glass blowers left in the United States, Mr. Ernest Kober, Jr., created glass figures and letters. Two convicts from the Reformatory at Pendleton, sponsored by an Exchange Club, visited Manual in February. They answered student questions about conditions at the prison and their personal lives. For several holidays, Manual presented seasonal auditoriums. Chaplain Harrison Neal of the Marion County Sheriff ' s Department spoke before the stu- dent body for Thanksgiving. The auditorium rang with music at Christmas time, as the Choir, Glee Clu b, Orchestra, and an Organ and Brass Ensemble combined to present the Sounds of Christmas. The singing Christmas tree, made up of the Glee Club, perform in the annual Christmas program during a 3A-3B Auditorium. The girls also sang for a community concert the preceding night. 12

Brenda Buescher and David Harlos, Yearbook royalty, receive their crowns from Ivian Co-editor Marianne Hedges. We Relax at Dances On Weekend Evenings Manual students find that weekend dances of all kinds give them a chance to relax after school. The four informal Student Affairs Board after- game dances featured live bands during football and basketball seasons. One of these, the Home- coming Dance, honored King Manual XV and his Queen. The Lettermen ' s Club also sponsored a hop after a wrestling meet as well as one with the SAB. The yearbook ' s Pic Parade provided students an opportunity to buy and exchange pictures while listening to their favorite records. The IVIAN staff distributes yearbooks at the John Henry Hop in May. The first Roines Romp combined psychedelic decorations and the antics of pledges to produce a Hippie Happening. The first name band to en- tertain at Manual, the Dawn Five, came in Janu- ary lor the second Roines Romp. Traditional military dress and decorations set the cafeteria for the semi-formal Military Ball. High- light of the evening was the crowning of the Queen by Principal Wayne Kincaid. Juniors attended their prom, Hawaiian Sunset. in April at the LI 1 . Med Center. Climax of lour years for seniors was their Prom .U the Indiana Roof, June 7. Typical of the crowds that enjoy af- ter-game dances, these students dance to the music of a live band at the hop sponsored by the Lettermen ' s Club and the Student Affairs Board. I I
