ACTIVITIES An integral part of life at Fairfax High School is the enjoyment that its traditional activities bring to us all. Drudgery and schoolwork are forgotten as we recall the highlights of the year: the pride of watching our athletic teams in action, the joy of seeing a lovely queen crowned, the thrill of having a club or class float in the Homecoming Parade, the glamour of a formal dance, the boisterous fun of the Sadie Hawkins, the accomplishment of presenting a successful play, the half-happiness, half-sorrow of graduation. Throughout the year these events kept our interest in the school alive, putting the needed variety into every day, and bringing about new friendships through association with others. We discovered new interests and broadened our outlook through active participation in such activities, thereby better pre¬ paring ourselves for the future. 8
