CHEERING TRYOUTS are tedious, but so much fun. Many girls strive for the honors. Practice everyday is a must. Practicing now are Penny Trahan and Marilyn Cavanaugh. HARD WORKERS is a good description of Shelley Meyers and Diane Leonard. The Ebb Tide Staff is a work- ing group, but fun is managed to be had, also. “Windy” Month Brings Joy to All MARCH, the “windy” month, came upon us rather quickly. Reports cards came out after a few days. Cheering tryouts began. Fifty or more girls fought hard and worked to make the “Varsity.” On the third of March, the United Nations’ Examination was given. On the twelfth of March, College Boards were given again. On a later date, National Merits were given. The seniors began long, hard preparations for their last gift to the student body of L.H.S., the Senior Class Dance. This dance, one of their last projects, was to be the grandest, and it was. Anchor and Wheel Clubs worked vigorously, too, to produce Melody Circus in April. “Tiger House,” the Junior Class Play, made its debut to the sophomores on March 31. in the auditorium. March could be labeled as ‘Svork month. Lau- derdale students were “busy as bees,” joining in together in projects of various types. “YOU HAD BETTER ASK THEM EARLY, tells Steve Walhom to Ralph Rickard before asking Nancy Cantor and Sharon McMillan to the Senior Class Dance. 49
