Phone work was a big part of setting up appoint- ments and arranging details. Senior Meg Rodgers discusses questions with her publishers. Photographers aren't constantly at work during class. Keith Golden, senior, is shown clowning around with his friend. To help plan the yearbook, publishing represen- tative Acie Mitchell discusses with sponsor Ms. Marcia Sabol the format and possibilities of the book. Even with a new sponsor and a change in format, inexperience became the factor to overcome for Those devoted to the book Though the year began slowly for these groups, it was soon a fast-paced schedule. Both groups worked hard and after hours for little reward. With a new advisor and a staff in which the majority were first year members, their determination and drive were what kept them going. With a shake-up early in the year which led to the resignation of several staff members, this already small group was reduced even further. They were soon to learn that it was quality rather than quantity that counts. These ten or so individuals were responsible for the entire yearbook. The small staff we had gave us a lot more responsibilities and took up a lot more time. commented Suzette Myers, co-editor. Deadlines, workshops and conventions kept them busy year around. Much was ac- complished by these members through con- sistent work and know-how. Though much of the photography staff was experienced, only the photo-editor, Senior David Riehl, was actually on the staff last year. Key plays and candids were shot with consistently good quality. Though the darkroom was broken into, this hampered the staff only slightly. Coverage of lt was a blast to be con- nected with such a lively group. I'm glad I was a part. -Debbie Blaney club functions was done extremely well. With so many active organizations, it wasn't hard to stay busy twenty four hours a day. Yearbook f Photography 75

Touch of Class Before delivering Zuckergrarns for Valentines, Kelly Bell, Troy Amerson, Jodie Nederhof and Alan Knapp review the final orders. ii' 'M --5' TAF' II.-Inu - Joining a language club and learning of foreign cultures helped students achieve The French Club sponsor, Mrs. Jeannie Fisher, has taught French for seven years.

Fund raising activities sponsored by the 4'Students choose to take this class, so everyone is generally enthusiastic about itf' - Mrs. Jeannie Fisher French Club were Christmas candles, bake sales and the annual sale of mini-mums for homecoming. This money helped with the yearly trip the club took in the spring. Many activities were postponed for the club when Mrs. Fisher left before Christmas vacation to have a baby. She returned in mid-January with an addition to her family, Lauren Michelle. Mrs. Jan Olsen, who was fluent in French, substituted for the classes. She had just five months before returning from Belgium, where she lived for ten years. Activities of the French club were a Hallo- ween party at Senior Diana Brusard's house, where French food was served, and a trip to Don Carters Bowling Alley. In March the students attended the play Cyrano De 76 French X German Bergerac at Paschal High School. The play was performed in both French and English. Afterwards the club ate lunch at a French restaurant. The German Club is also a group in- terested in foreign language and background. Mrs. Fredna Sturch, teacher of German for nine years said, 'Alt is exciting to teach a foreign language and stay in touch with Europeans because Europe sometimes experiences problems that will later be our problems, such as in politics. After two months preparation the Ger- man Club entered in the Novemberfest at Plano High School, sponsored by German teachers of North Central Texas. Students built their own booth, where they sold Brat- wurst, and competed in cooking and cultural events, Although the Novemberfest was the largest activity, students also ate at Edelweiss for Christmas and performed a two-hour variety show for a convalescent home. The club sold gummy bears, bunny grams at Easter and Zuckergrams at Valentines for fund raising activities. Advanced classes visited the two German settlements in Fredricksburg and New Braunfels. They toured a ghost town, museums and winery, where they sampled German-Texas cooking.
