Senior Ronnie Canfield and junior Wendell Baker portray the famous ‘‘Fantasy Island’ duo, Mr. Roarke and Tattoo, during the yearbook sales promotion assembly. The j.v. girls’ basketball team is intro- duced to the student body during the first pep rally of the year. Fiery colors, cool weather, and a rush of activities characterized the com- ing of fall. Classes, clubs, and organiza- tions elected new officers and outlined their goals for the year. School spirit was on the rise. The students who participated in the exchange trip to England presented the first assembly of the year. Everyone listened as the students told of their amusing and exciting adventures in England. The Crystal staff kicked off its annu- al magazine drive and was elated by the $12,000 raised. To promote the yearbook, the staff presented the skit, ‘Fantasy Island.” This year the guidance department began to focus more on specialized areas of student life such as study skill workshops, teenage drinking programs and career outlooks. Juniors and sen- iors were also offered a SAT prepara- tion course by Dabney S. Lancaster Community College. College Day brought many admis- sions representatives to school and col- lege bound juniors and seniors were invited to ask questions about the var- ious schools. Upperclassmen also took PSAT's, SAT's, and Achievements dur- ing the fall. The highlight of the fall for most ju- niors was the arrival of their class rings. Seniors ordered graduation announce- ments and were measured for their caps and gowns. Pep Squad members worked hard to promote school spirit by making ban- ners and buttons. The pep rallies boost- ed support for the fall athletic teams. The first soc hop, sponsored by the SCA, was a huge success. School pride and support was dis- played by the students who stuffed en- velopes for Sigma Nu in order to raise money to purchase new gym curtains. The project was sponsored by the SCA: As fall came to an end, the anticipa- tion of winter snowstorms began to rise. The fall proved to be a season full of motivation and school pride. Fall 17
