Wild antic» featuring Judy Orr and Woody Max- well were part of the skit put on by Juniorettos ond Key Club for the lest pep assembly of another successful football season for tho L's. The season's first basketball pop assembly found high spirits prevailing as optimistic students were seen cheering the team they ranked as tops. December swept in, end with it, activities galore for seniors. Their class play, Ten Little Indians, was a suspense thriller de luxe which attested to the hard work put in on it. Then came the long awaited time—Senior Superlatives were to be selected. Each senior deliberated and came up with his choices. The class held its breath waiting, then one week before Christmas, the final results were made known. Wheel Club members presented the annual Santa Claus Hop with Bob Greene. WINZ disk jockey, as emcee. As holidays drew closer, school days seemed to get longer and looks of anticipation took the place of the doleful expressions usually seen on the faces of Lauderdaleans. Christmas Carols emanated from the cafeteria, and beautifully decorated trees, wreaths, and tinsel were present everywhere. When vacation at last came, there was a mad rush to finish that last minute shopping and get everything caught up before Christmas. That the College men were home, is a fact which could easily be gathered from looking at some of the Senior girls' faces. The end of the holidays plunged us into another month. New hands take the reins as Mr. Brower oddrossos the student body for the first time as Lauderdale's principal.

Spending most of their time at the beach, they discovered a new hangout, the Cafe Sienna. New hands took over the reins of LHS as Mr. Joseph Brewer stepped into his new role as acting principal. The seniors struggled through college board exams and rushed to guidance center with their college applica- tions and scholarship forms. Mr. Maynard announced that LHS had five seniors qualify as finalists in the National Honor Society Scholarship competition. As Castro and his rebels charged around Cuba, several Lauderdalites made their way down south to have a look around. They re- turned with many tales for curious friends.
