Freshmen accept LW challenge T he beginning of another school year brings several activities. As a new class of freshmen arrive, so does the traditional Freshmen Week. Freshmen Week is sponsored by the Girls’ Club as an orientation for the freshmen. Through various assemblies and activities, the freshmen are in¬ troduced to Lew Wallace and its traditions. This year the activities included a 1978 Fall Fashion Show and a Big and Little Sister Pool Party. The upperclassmen have a hand in the Freshmen Week activities. They initiate the freshmen by having them perform little tasks, climbing flagpoles, carrying arm loads of books and tying shoes together. Also, freshmen must pay $1 for their school ID which allows them to attend various school activities. They must also participate along with the under¬ class to have their pictures taken for the Quill and Blade. Far left: junior James Roberts collects and counts the money from ID pictures.
