The girls became the boys at the Powder Puff Game. And the boys had a chance to show off their cheerleading form. Jim Hart exemplifies the courtesy and consideration which eighth-graders learn are expected by students at FHS. The SC A In A etion The Student Cooperative Association of Franklin High School strives to produce a harmonious rela- tionship between teacher and student. When prob- lems arise, the SCA is quick to act in order to resolve the differences. The SCA sponsors many of the activities cen- tered around school. The Homecoming dance was quite a big success this year as was “Rat Day”, an event which proved to be full of hilarious moments. Late in the season a powder puff football game was held in which the girls became the football players, and the boys donned the cheerleading uniforms. O ther activities included revision of the Dress Code through a committee of student and faculty mem- bers, and the establishment of a scholarship in memory of Wyatt B. Durette from funds gathered by the SCA. Lou Councill and Emily Bryant stroll around the floor to admire the decorations of the Homecoming dance.

And Lighten The Academic Load The Varsity Club consists of students who have previously lettered in a varsity activity or sport. As a money project to help buy trophies or extra equipment for the sports program, club members operate a popcorn machine at all home football and basketball games. This project is augmented by the sale of soft drinks and candy at the basketball games. Also, at the basketball games members hold restraining ropes to keep spectators from walking on the court in street shoes during half-time and before and after the games. Cheerleaders are included in the Varsity Club as honorary members. As a mark of mem- bership, each member purchases a Varsity jacket in the school colors of blue and gold. Bobo Beacham and Trisha Rawls demonstrate their customer-attracting qualities at the Varsity Concession Stand. The Interact Club, under the supervision of Mr. Rinehart, is a service organization of boys which strives to attain high moral and scholastic goals in the school and community. The boys are selected for membership on the bases character, leadership ability and scholarship. This year Dr. Gordon W. Birdsong has presented several programs pertaining to the medical field to the club, and Mrs. Romine Hundley has spoken on “Tips on How to Study”. Later this spring a deep-sea fishing trip is planned. The Quill and Scroll is an honor society consisting of Juniors and Seniors who have contributed to the field of journalism by par- ticipating in some aspect of the school publi- cations.
