Athletics Class Added Girls' athletics was added to the curriculum this year. Athlet- ics helped do away with after- school workouts and gave more girls a chance to be active in sports. The girls started the year play- ing volleyball. Then they took up basketball when the season started. Track was the most strenuous sport although everyone v l enjoyed it. It involved a lot of running, jumping, exercising and weightlifting. Boys in athletics play football, basketball, track and baseball. Boys not participating in the sport in season take part in an off-sea- son program. This involves lift- ing weights and running to keep in shape . CV AJ During sixth period athletics.

Band Orders Uniforms Aluminum drives, candy and candle sales, a Halloween carni- val and a salad dinner were the money making projects for new uniforms. The new uniforms were ordered this year and will be ready to use at the beginning of next year. The members helped to raise S4500 and purchased 83 uni- forms. Money also went for the banquet and senior awards. Similar to the old ones, the uniforms have black pants with an orange stripe down the sides of the legs and black jackets with an overlay. An Indian chief is located on the back overlay and a GS is on the front overlay. Other activities of the band included pep bands at games and concerts.
