wm HBHMi HiiaBBiHnMmBmBm Homecoming, Play, Review Precede Holiday With the excitement of the Presidential elec- tions, the Reagan Office served as a polling pre- cinct. Civics classes conducted tours through the polling area while the teachers described each maneuver that transpired in the process of voting. At one time or another all three Presidential candidates visited Austin. This gave Reaganites a good chance to hear these men and to partici- pate in the mock school elections sponsored by Publications. Nixon proved to be the choice of most students as he won with 36% of the vote. Wallace and Humphrey both received 26%. A production of the Art and Musical Festival highlighted the beginning of the month of No- vember. Representatives from many colleges were at Rea- gan on the 11th for the annual P-TA college night. Careers Night was held on the 25th, giving stu- dents a glance at some of the opportunities after graduation. Sponsored by the Publications Department, the annual Beauty Review was held on the 16th. Den- ise Holman and Donald Ealey were chosen Most Beautiful and Most Handsome by a panel of judg- es.
