We’ve Only Just Begun . . . Organizations Student organizations were an integral part of life at Grapevine High School. Leadership blossomed through the efforts of the organizations which were led by talented and respected students of GHS. Their special gifts in guiding these organizations added life and zest to the 1971 school year. By recognizing these students on the following pages we would like to commend them. Student Council Provided PRESIDENT BILL HALSTEAD Jackie Watson and Debbie Browning contributed part of their Saturday to help reconstruct the seats in the old Airway Theater. Governing the student body of GHS was no easy task, rather it was a full time job. Our Student Council certainly earned recognition for coming through a year of trials with flair. This year was one of initiative for the Council. Beginning with the passing of a new, liberal dress code which allowed girls to wear slacks and boys to have longer sideburns, the Council ended the year with full scale work on the reconstruction of the Airway Theater, which they renamed The Flicks. The Student Council was certainly not inactive, in fact, it was the most active organization in our school, and rightly so, for it’s sole purpose was the good of the student body. V m4.

Barbara Cody, Editor, was given a donut by Mrs. Nowlin, Yearbook Sponsor, closing the year out. in Grapevine Independent School District for helping us put out this book. Thank you for prizes donated for the Beauty-Handsome Contest and for advertisements purchased. Thank you, students and faculty, for allowing us the necessary time to make the many pictures that we needed. Thank you for adding your individuality that made the year fun to cover. But the biggest thank you goes to my staff for caring enough to make one more picture, one more write-up, or redraw one more layout, to make the MUSTANG yearbook a little better than it would have been if less care had been given. Had it not been that you were friends to me and to each other, it would not have been possible for us to give Grapevine High School another outstanding book - MUSTANG 1971. EDITOR 1971 Autographs
