Towering high above its two competitors, the iunior banner received a first place. Magic minds lead to new and unusual ideas The magic mind of the class of 1967 brought a tie victory in Field Day 1965. As sorcerers, they stood proudly, looking down upon a steaming cauldron which appar- ently held the right potion. At the end of field events, the junior class was thirteen points ahead of the sophomores and eight points ahead of the seniors. Class events were announced.

enior activities busy 1967 graduating class After three years of hard work, senior status was finally achieved by the class of '67. Upon reaching this stage, seniors find that many activities are open to them. With the payment of a nominal fee, better known as senior dues, each Senior receives a yearbook, memory record, and a cap and gown for the graduation exercises. Also from this fee comes the money to fi- nance Senior Dinner, Skip Day, Swing Out and the class gift. At the end of February, committees are chosen to organize these events, the class officers begin looking for an impressive class gift, and all Seniors are informed as to the state of their accounts. From the profits made by selling wrapping paper, candy, and Variety Show tickets, some stu- dents are able to completely cover their senior expenses. Seniors going on Washington Trip find many of their afternoons devoted to meet- ings in preparation for the trip. Others fill their time formulating ideas for Swing Out, Skip Day, and Senior Dinner. Marching practice takes up many hours of the last marking period and soon there is only one activity left for the Seniors - graduation.
