Early winter brings snow for cold wars Dreams of a white Thanksgiving materialized briefly but melted along with recordbreaking snow which fell early in November. The fluffy white stuff measured almost five inches, more than any other early snowfall in 70 years. Eligible seniors voted in the National elections November 3, with some stu- dents becoming actively involved in campaigns through their government classes or in community programs. Juniors held their own elections with Jeff Barnes winning president; Cissy Hudson, vice-president; Julie Worthen, secretary; and Leslie Little, treasurer. The Man Who Came To Dinner, pre- sented by senior drama students November 3, 4, 5, and 6, showed ticket sales surpassing the number sold in any of the last four years. Lead roles were held by Richard Sparr play- ing Sheridan Whiteside, and Shannon Sayles, who portrayed his secretary, Maggie Cutler. John Buckley, Carol Cleaver, Richard Johnson, Debbie Kirby, and Doug Webb assumed other major parts. Highlander band members jour- neyed to Salado, Texas for the annual ‘Gathering of the Clans.”’ Three Las- sies received awards for distinction in dancing and piping. The Hi-Park band received coverage of their marching drills on ABC television. Fans followed their victorious foot- ball team to Texas Stadium for bi-dis- trict play-offs, and then to the Cotton Bowl for the regional game. The fall Hi-Lite dance was a cos- tume party with a sports theme. Stu- dents came dressed for their favorite sport to see Sam Manning crowned as Hi-Lite King. David Gowdey, Bobby Day, John Ede, Richard Sparr, and Rusty Combes were the other nomi- nees for the title. 24 @ November ace mare FOE HEY RE ERE eet ee ner ABOVE: Prepared for the kill, Susie and John Low take advantage of an early November snowfall.
