Computer Confusion Bewilders HP Scots PROGRAM V-P’s Diane Cory and Alan Kutner anticipate the results of the Hi-Lite beauty contest at the first meeting of the year. Wile one student pondered the most effective way to employ six study halls, another wondered how he could ever manage calculus, chemistry, physics, trig, Latin, and English without even a lunch period. Beginning this year, computers replaced the old methods of compiling students’ schedules. Mistakes made in programming the computers resulted in a number of incorrect schedules. Long lines of dis- satisfied students necessitated many days and even nights spent in effecting schedule changes. To welcome sophomores and transfer students to Hi Park, the Student Council and Hi-Lites de- signed the second week of school as “Howdy Week” and co-sponsored a dance held in the girls’ gym after the Paschal game. Highlandaires officers honored new members with an afternoon tea, and the Hi-Lites and orchestra opened the school year with picnics. Feasting on a catered barbecue dinner, HP Las- sies and band members met at Bachman Lake for their annual picnic. To conclude the evening, new director Mr. Robert Jordan installed the 1968-'69 officers. With the theme of “Haunted House,” Lads and Lassies, disguised as black cats, witches, and ghosts, held their picnic at Lee Park. DUE TO A COMPUTER mistake, Randy Clontz makes the best of being scheduled in homemaking.
