The clapping of Independence supporters indicates that the Patriots have recovered the ball. In this its first year, Independence epitomized school spirit. This true school spirit was the type that exemplified sin¬ cere concern on the part of the Patriots for their team whether the challenge be football, basketball, wrestling, cross country, track, or baseball. It was the type of spirit that showed loyalty to the end regardless of the odds f or or against a Patriot victory. At the close of each game, it was the type of spirit that caused all Independence students to rise and shout, “I’m a Patriot, couldn’t be prouder!” Many students arrive early to lend support to the J.V. team.

School swings open with Howdy Dance To provide a break from the rou¬ tine of study, several dances were held throughout the year. To cele¬ brate the opening of school in Sep¬ tember, a Howdy Dance enabled students to get acquainted with Independence as well as each other. The lively sound of the “Escorts” provided an enjoyable evening for all. In December, the “Venturas” were present to usher in the Christmas season. Santa Claus was on hand to give away gifts in the way of candy. These dances, along with a Sadie Hawkins dance in March and the Junior-Senior Prom in April, were the year’s major festivities. At the Howdy Dance, students contribute money to “Big I.” Lucretia Hurley and Jerry Adams liven up a slow number. At the Christmas Dance, Jackie Wallace, Becky Owens, Linda Griffin, and Mark Dover pose for pictures. Students gather around the “Escorts” in lively motion.
