Wig Assemblies add variety to hum drum school day Every so often, the classrooms were abandoned and the 700 bods plus faculty herded into the auditorium for what is generally known as assemblies. Actually it would be more suitable to term them as mass confusion. During assemblies our individuality was taken away and we were given numbers instead of being known by our names. Everyone was required to sit in their own assigned seats. Whispering, throwing paper wads, and snoring were a few ex- tracurricular activities indulged in during this time. Most students view- ed assembly programs as a time they were spared from a test, P.E. or some hated subject. Assembly programs included politicians, lecturers, an evangelist, actors, an artist, the stage band, vocal music, English skits, jugglers, and pep skits.

Chilean exchange student displa s talent A warm smile, a Spanish accent, and a craving to learn are all outstanding characteristics of Carlos Valdivieso. Being shy, Carlos found lots of time to do things he did best such as play his guitar, listen to music, especially soul and rock, and tell his American brothers and sisters of his home country Chile. Carlos is an outstanding volleyball player and was a member of the team that won the Chilean volley ball tournament. Carlos participated in track and was extremely enthusiastic when it came to football and baseball because these sports are not played in Chile. The rare and wonderful talent of jitterbugging was possessed by Carlos. He displayed his great ability at the AFS sock hop. Carlos learned about the American life style from the Kenny Thielen family.
