One of these was the dress code, which is no longer with us. Another was the King and Queen Dance. As a result of the chaning times, this year had, instead, a Queen and her Court.

C. competition. The 2 losses came early in the season, at the hands of Hebron and Wheeler, but those losses were later avenged. Three players, Kurt Adams, Ted Hofferth, and Tom Burnette, achieved positions on the all-conference baseball teams. Kurt made 1st team center fielder and Ted made 1st team pitcher. Tom made 2nd team shortstop. With only two seniors players garduating, a strong team returns next year. CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR SEASON!

They moved into a fast over- all running record of 9-4. They finished 2nd in the P.C.C. meet and 3rd in the Round Robin meets. This year's top harriers were Steve Nuest, Kenny Kneifel, and Kurt Adams. Steve finished second in the County Meet and Kenny finished third in the freshman meet. Kurt is the only Senior not returning next year. LEFT TO RIGHT: Kurt Adams, Jim Martie, John Lauer, Jon Claypool, Paul Chael, Roger Martin, Dave Schnur- lein, Steve Nuest, Eric Easterday, Coach Briars, and Kenny Kniefel. The varsity track men were strong in nearly all the events. They finished 2nd in the P. C.C. meet, 3rd in the Red division of die Hebron Relays, and in the Freshman- Sophomore meet, we finished 3rd. In dual meets, we dropped only 2 decisions—one a 2-point loss! The 880 relay team was very strong, los- ing only once--to North Judson.
