FOOTBALL BANQUET The Pep Club honored the football bo s and guests at the annual Football Banquet In the Methodist Church dining room on the evening of December 6, 1946. The theme Grandma” was used In the decorations and program. The room was decoiated with our school colors, orange and black, and with our emblem, Tigers. The Pep Club girls, chose Grandma as the theme because of Mr. Watkins' legendary Grandma who could (he said) play better football than the boys. The menu consisted of: Drop Kick Salad, Tiger Loaf, Triple Threat Potatoes, Punt Formation Rolls, Grandma's Jam and Pickles, Pigskin Peas, Touchdown Pudding, and Dissolved Mud Balls. Chevrons and letters were given for each year the player lettered in football.

CHRISTMAS DANCE The students of Fairmont High School were highly honored on the night of December 13, 1946, by the invitation to a dance at the North Pole 6lven by Mr. and Mrs. Santa Claus. The students arrived in reindeer-drawn sleighs. Immediately they were ushered to the Claus's ballroom which had been decorated by the brownies the nijit before. It was auorned with cedarbou0hs, red bells, mistletoe, and red and green streamers. Santa welcomed the quests and then they danced to the mellow music of the best orchestras at the North Pole. Durint the dancin you could hear screams, but we found out later that it was only the wolves of Fairmont making the rounds under the mistletoe. Dale Hall found out that Muriel Softley had lung power when he ot her cornered under the mistletoe. Miss Stowe dedicated two son6s: Blue Skies to John Fishel who had been out of school because of a long illness, and another to the only grade teacher brave enough to wear mistletoe in her halr--Mlss Bussell. (We're ohly spoofin'). Mrs. Claus asked the students to her kitchen, where they were treated to hot dogs, cokes, candy, and popcorn. We returned to the ballroom and danced until we heard Santa ring his bell, then the tifts were distributed.
