Attention! rings through the air as a long line of young men stand awaiting Lt. Howard Swearinger, retired Navy man. The Naval Junior Reserve Officer Training Corps has nearly doubled in size since last year, with 70 cadets enrolled in naval science courses. Five of these in- dustrious young men completed the 3-year plan which the corps has set up at King. The corps ' drill squad placed fifth in competition with ROTC units from all high schools in Texas at Texas A I in December. Navy Day was celebrated in November with all the spit and polish of the Navy tradition. . Eager sophomores, or first year corps- men, took two trips to Corpus Christi ' s Naval Air Station, and the whole corps ended the year with a trip to Confederate Air Force in Harlins;en. After-school practice by the NJROTC drill squad prepares it for later competition. Muddy grounds do not stop the drill squad members from practicing their marching as they resort to the parking lot. NJROTC Cadets Show Pride in Their Country The color guard presents colors at the beginning of the Stroman game. (Above) Corpsmen celebrated Navy Day in typical Navy fashion. (Right) The eager eyes of Jessie Garza, Bill Stewart, and Robert Pratt watch as Danny Guerrero cuts the cake.

SPANISH Los Reyes Members Score Points For Austin Convention Promoting school spirit, helping with special service projects, and holding a rummage sale were but a few of the projects undertaken by the Spanish Club. The club started off the year by choosing a new name, Los Reyes. Each week Spanish Club members decorated the football bus before the games. Also after the big games signs could be seen saying Congrats to another Mustang Victory. To raise money for contribution to a project in South America, a rummage sale was held. To top this hard work, the members went to Nuevo Laredo for a day of shopping and sightseeing. The club also collected food and clothing for a family at Thanksgiving and Christmas. Under the leadership of President Ann Anderson and sponsors Miss Elida Ra- mirez and Mrs. Susan Williams, the club reached its highest point in member- ship. The club had three girls who were officers for the PASF District Council, Los Reyes also selected fifteen members to attend a PASF State Convention in Austin in late spring. Loaded down with packages, the Los Reyes members wait for their bus outside the market in Nuevo Laredo. Marlene Richtor is one of the many Los Reyes members who helped decorate the football bus before it leaves for the game. Officers for Los Reyes are Margo Branscomb, secretary; Ann Anderson, president; Debbie Haas, vice-president; and sponsor Miss Ramirez.
