Each week there was something different and exciting going on at school - a drama production or a football game, a bake sale or a barn dance. But the world of LH students went beyond the campus boundries, and into the community, the country, and the world. They experienced the best of both worlds.

Another source of confusion was, of course, class schedules. Counselor's offices were packed with students whose second period class had been cancelled, whose schedule showed that they had neither A, B or C lunch, and the usual amount of students who had simply changed their mind about a class they had signed up for. Counselors shuffled schedules, passes and room assignments all week. Mrs. McVay, senior counselor, was heard to say, If we can just get through this first week, things really do get better! Attention was again turned to the parking lot Thursday morning, August 30, as seniors lined up to get their parking stickers. Lines were so long that entrances to the parking lot became clogged with cars that were waiting for stickers those who were not. The junior varsity football squad met Jesuit in a scrimage at Wildcat Stadium at 4:30 Thursday afternoon, while the varsity squad squared off with the opposition at 7:30. Friday morning, sticker lines again caused traffic problems for students. The line for stickers weaved around in circles, and some students waited up to an hour to receive their sticker. The second week of school began with a holiday, Monday September 3. The Labor Day holiday provided everyone with an extra day to recooperate from a rather hectic first week of school, everyone that is except members of the Flag Corps. The Flag Corps was spotted Monday afternoon practicing on the fresh asphalt of the new LH parking lot in preparation for their first performance Friday night. Many athletic organizations, special interest clubs and service groups got off the ground during the first Activities Aug. 26-Sept. 8 two weeks of school. The swim team, the boys' soccer team and both the boys' and girls' gymnastics teams met for the first time of the year. Special interest clubs, such as, Creative Reflections, the Lake Highlands Theater Club, Encore, Fantastic Cinema Productions and the Future Homemakers of America held organizational meetings to kick off the year. The Girls Service League and the Key Club held their first official meetings of the year also. The spirit of red and white shined at the first pep rally of the year. The seniors won the spirit stick while the sophomores looked on in awe. On the sport scene, the LH volleyball team opened the season against Newman-Smith in the LH gym. The Wildcat football team, picked first in district 13AAAA by the polls, clobbered the top-ranked W.t. White Longhorns in Wildcat Stadium, Thursday evening. Friday afternoon, the LH volleyball team played their second game of the year and won over the Golden Bears of Oak Cliff. MH ' .iff 5 .
