Convocations break monotony. There were many convocations this yea ' r, covering various subjects. The first one was the. Powder Puff football game, which was won by the senior girls. In October, the Hendersons showed their gymnastic abilities in the Rohn Rod. In November, Congressman Floyd Fithian gave a political talk in the audito- rium and students were able to ask him questions. Many students felt that Mr. Fifthian didn ' t really answer their ques- tions but rather talked around them. In December, folk singer Mick Scott entertained. In January, Wally Kann tumbled around on the trampoline and the matt. Student Council started showing mov- ies. The first one seen was Towering Inferno. In April, Tom Twining and his wife Jody, both karate experts, gave a dem- onstration on this defensive sport. They talked and demonstrated how to do ba- sic moves. They also told something about karate ' s origin. A week later, the rock group Frank- lin ' s Kite performed in the gymnasium. The convos were not only a nice op- portunity to be out of class for a while, they were also fun, and, for those who were really interested, some were an oc- casion to learn something new.
