On November 1 about 80% of the stu- dents voted in the mock election, spon- sored by the Social Studies Department. The election was conducted in a similar way to that of electing national officials, using similar registration blanks and bal- lots. Students from the history and govern- ment classes were chosen to act as regis- trars for their magisterial district. The requirements for registering were a lit- eracy test and 2¢ poll tax. Students learn to master both sport and sportsmanship in a close softball game as the girls cheer for their favorite team.
