TABLE OF CONTENTS SENIOR SECTION 22 POWDER PUFF 34 SENIOR DAY 50 PROM 52 JUNIOR SECTION 55 SOPHOMORE SECTION 69 Transition 1974 was the second year of transition. Gloucester High School took her second step on the road to becoming a big school. The rise in student population was only one aspect in this transition. The formation of many new teams, groups, and activities was another. The 74 debate team showed the red and white proudly in many tourneys. Tennis became an interscholastic sport for the first time. Forensic club and other groups made a brave showing. Brave indeed. The Tennis team played without nets or in the gym. The Debate team members often payed most of their way. Some girls sports had trouble obtaining transportation as did other sports whose participation was limited. The time has come when Gloucester should take the step from a small one-team school to a large, well balanced institution. The people are here, all that is needed is money. The swell of Gloucester county and Gloucester High School had some similarities. Both systems, school and county, had sewage problems be¬ cause of the overflow of people. The county experienced a number of sewage spills into the rivers. The school had troubles with the main lines to the cesspool. Both prob¬ lems resulted in an unpleasant atmosphere. The traffic problem in the county, received attention in the form of a bypass for Gloucester Court House. While both systems were feeling the expansion, both took some steps to deal with it.
