Jobs add hours onto busy days One after school activity which Manual students participated in was work. Most people may not have thought of this as part of school, but it was. Work was an important part of many Redskins ' lives, and since these people were part of Manual; work became an important part of Manual also. Redskins were employed at such places as McDonalds, Burger Chef, Church ' s and the Star News. When asked how his school life was affected by his employment, junior David Ginn said, It makes it kind of hard sometimes with homework and all; but a person has to be organized so that he can find time for everything. School should come first, however. Junior Mary Byland waits on customers at the Shelby Street McDonalds which is frequented by many Manualites. Redskins wishing to apply for work at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway congregate in the Career Guidance Center. 10 Working Manualites

Activities enliven Redskin year. Activities which filled Manual ' s school year added both variety and interest to the after school life of students and raised funds for many projects such as sending students to various summer camps and workshops. The Fellowship of Christian Athletes held its auction on April 21, 1978 at 7 p.m. Over 100 items were auctioned off including autographed pictures, balls, books, jerseys, and hats of college and professional superstars. Athletes were sent to FCA summer camp with the proceeds from the auction. The annual Pow Wow, sponsored by the PTA and supported by many clubs, was held April 28. Squirt the Flirt, Cake Walk, Roulette, and the Tower of Power were a few of the many booths at the Pow Wow. There were also book, craft, and white elephant sales. Snack food concessions were handled by Roines and a Fish Fry tent was manned by members of the PTA. The proceeds from the Pow Wow, which was the major fund-raising project of the year, were spent mainly on athletic equipment, scholarships, sending students to summer workshops, and other Redskin projects. Another Manual fund-raising event was a car wash held on June 16 by the hardworking Manual cheerleaders. Varsity cheerleader Jackie Campbell said about the project, liked the water fights! She explained that most of the time they were busy washing cars, but they still found time to have fun. The money raised was used to send some of the cheerleaders to cheerleading camp at Indiana University. The enthusiasm with which these activities were enacted showed the great spirit and pride possessed by Manualites. We are the Redskins! Dave Miller, 1978 President of FCA, and junior Nancy Vandivier display items to be auctioned off at the FCA auction of the Superstars. 12 Activities
