Croup selects safari theme The 1970 Senior Carnival fea- tured a variety of booths spon- sored by different senior home- rooms. African Safari was the theme chosen for the carnival. White headhunters. Tarzan and Jane, and real authentic African wedding ceremonies were wit- nessed at the swinging safari. The highlight of the carnival was the haunted jungle.
