Redskin friends give Manual an extra touch Manual ' s Parent-Teacher Associa- tion and Dad ' s Club became in- volved in school activities through- out the year. Parents contributed time, energy, and money to help Manual students in various ways. Dad ' s Club members kept fans warm and happy during the foot- ball and basketball seasons. They sponsored the refreshment stands which sold snacks to keep the sports fans content. Every P-TA supports many pro- jects used to help Manual students. College-bound students were help- ed by the Scholarship Fund. The P-TA aided students in English and Language programs. They also help- ed students in summer activities such as the journalism institute. The P-TA once again sponsored the annual Pow Wow. Students and P-TA cooperated with booths, food, and fun for this annual spring event. Manual received a first hand les- son about Copenhagen, Denmark from Senior Lena Madsen who came to Manual through Youth for Un- derstanding Exchange Program. Lena had heard much about the United States through her school and close relatives living in Cali- fornia. She resided with Junior Bruce Peterson ' s family. Lena found the student enroll- ment overwhelmingly large. She was surprised by student class schedul- ing also. Lena felt that students should not be allowed to make their own schedules since many students omit foreign languages. Lena, who spoke English, French, German, Latin, and her native language Dan- ish, thought that foreign languages were the most important courses. Lena graduated with the 1975 class. She returned to Denmark to further her art education. PT A Dad ' s Club 17

Fairy tales do come true for the young at heart Fairy Tales was the theme for the forty-sixth annual Redskin Re- vue, a series of three plays written and directed by students. The first act was entitled Last Mango in Taris, and dealt with the thwarted love of Princess Rhonda and Prince Shy. The main obstacle in the way of their happiness was Wicked Witch Glut, aided by her two-headed son with a double per- sonality. Princess Rhonda, with the help of her fairy godmother and a mango from the sacred mango tree in Taris, broke an evil spell the wicked witch had cast upon her. Also affected by Witch Glut, Prince Shy was turned into an ugly green frog until a beautiful princess would kiss him. The act, a take-off on The Wizard of Oz, was written by Jim Hummel and Danny Sease, and s ' ponsored by Mrs. Susan Donges and Mr. Larry Morwick. The Porridge Caper, written by Mike Fogleman and Cindy Davis, and sponsored by Mr. Mike Fred- erick and Mr. Dennis Jackson, con- cerned a porridge party in Fieldgar Park, which was under police sur- veillance. A take-off on Goldilocks and the Three Bears and Drag- net, the act was complete with forest animals and bumbling de- tectives. Two tailors tried to rip off an emperor in Spinning Dreams, written by Carl Baumann and George Eckler, and sponsored by Miss Ann Bowers and Mr. Wayne Spinks. In this parody to The Em- peror Who Wore No Clothes, a vain emperor was taught a lesson he would not forget.
