'A O gathering ol the clan All of 2397 students in one room could mean confusion, but actually it means just another assembly at ETHS, the only event in which the whole student body is assembled at one time. The year's assemblies, planned by the Assemblies Committee to satisfy the interests of every student, started with the fall ac- tivities assembly, at which the presidents of the various school ac- tivities were introduced, and ended with the prize assembly in June. Prominent among the assemblies, averaging about one per month, were those sponsored by the P.T.A. to introduce speakers drawn from areas important in our American life. A unique feature of this type of assembly was the two hour bull sessions in which selected seniors met each speaker. Another outstanding assembly opened the Evanston Youth Conference, with Dr. Alexander from Oklahoma City speaking on the theme of the conference, Seek, find, and live God's way. gr ff l , Upper: What sweeter music can we sing . . .? concludes Mrs. Jacobson's original carol at the Christmas assembly.

The war cry, Heap Good Buy re- sounded through the halls this year as the budget ticket campaign, direct- ed by Stevie Hinman, l64, and spon- sored by Mr. Melvin, got under way. When the smoke clouds cleared away, the school had set a new all time record with a 93 per cent sales participation, proving that ETHS budgeteers know a real bargain when they see one. While most schools sell tickets to extra-curricular activities separately and at a tar greater price, the bud- get ticket, sold for 553,75 ot the be- ginning ot the year, provided tor tree or discounted admittance to atheltic events and dramatic productions and included free receipt ot the Evans- tonian and the Key. Leading homerooms were 244 with 98 per cent soles, followed by lO4 with 97.5 per cent and l44 with 95.3 per cent.
