ctivities Fair Highlights Month for ll An increase of spirit and togetherness was evident in the EHS student body all through November. This spirit, which had been building since September, reached its height during the Activities Fair. Nov. 4. Although similar to the conventional open house. the fair was different in that all organizations were given an opportunity to participate. For entertainment, clubs set up booths such as Dunk the Dummy and Ring-a-Leg. Various departments provid- ed displays to illustrate classroom activities. Band and chorus concerts were given, and to top off the night. a free junior varsity football game was played in the stadium. The fair was a profitable experience for all. lt not only promoted EHS spirit, but also demonstrated this spirit to the rest of the community. A concern for others was demonstrated during the annual clothing and canned food drives. National Honor Society, who sponsored the clothing drive, reported a grand total of 2,239 pounds of donated clothing, which is twice the amount collected last year. Student Council added an intercom-a-thon to raise money for this year's Gravy Train. Its success was evident-students donated a total of 5600.52 that bought Thanksgiving dinners for needy families. Prizes were awarded organizations raising the most money. Homeroom sections I2-I contributed 540.35 and Sans Perine added 547.48. Anchor placed first in the race to collect canned goods. They contributed approximately 500 of the total 650 cans. Escambia made an excellent showing at the First Annual Bob Salter Chevrolet Spelling Contest at University Mall. EHS students captured the prelimin- ary round with Ross Jaburg placing first, Sherri Baxter placing second, and Susan O'DonnelI placing third. Although EHS did not place in the finals, all of the participants did gain experience in competition.
