Many 18-year olds for the first time exercised their right to vote. Robert Orr and Rich¬ ard Bodine, candidates for lieutenant governor, trying to reach the 18-year old vote, came to Lake Central to campaign. In November, the Senior government classes organized a mock election in order to learn more about voting procedures. The results of the presi¬ dential and state elections were reflected in the mock election. President Nixon overwhelmingly won in his bid for re-election. It was a very special year for music at Lake Cen¬ tral. The LC band won the sweepstakes trophy at NISBOVA for the ninth time. Members of the choral departments, madrigals and mixed choir appeared on WGN in a half-hour special. As never before, the Lake Central Theatre Guild presented a summer stock play. The Guild ' s first summer production was You ' re a Good Man, Charlie Brown! . The Quill and Scroll ' s Annual Powder Puff game was eagerly anticipated by the junior and senior girls. In a game with a record at¬ tendance, the senior girls beat the junior girls 26-6. In the hearts of many LC students 1973 was a very special time.

Everyone has his own very special places—be¬ cause of the memories they hold. Warsaw, In¬ diana, is a special place to LC bandsmen. It was the town where LC won the NISBOVA Sweep- stakes trophy. The marching Indians, directed by Mr. Douglas Jordan, performed a show entitled A Tribute to America . The football field was the site of memorable ac¬ tivities during the homecoming week. The annual homecoming parade through Dyer ended at the football field. After the parade, the winners of the float and car competition were announced. The juniors won with float, Knock ' Em Loco, That ' s Our Motive . The Art Club won the car com¬ petition with their caterpillar car. The auditorium was the place of Lake Central Theatre Guild ' s spring musical, A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum . The setting of the comical farce was Rome during 200 B.C. Forum was a series of coincidental and unbelie¬ vably funny situations and episodes. The trials and tribulations began when Hero, a citizen, decided that he wanted to marry a slave girl, Philia, some¬ thing which was taboo in Roman times. The plot was further complicated when Pseudolus, a slave, decided to help Hero, thereby obtaining some¬ thing he wanted . . . freedom. There were many special places in LC. The stu¬ dent center ' s vending machines allowed students to supplement their lunch with candy or pastries. A student smoking area outside the building was designated to alleviate the smoking problem in¬ side the building. Each part of Lake Central was a special place in the eyes of its students.
