Clever campaign devices' were used in an attempt to solicit votes, In this same spirit freshmen and sophomore offi- cers and committees worked hard to plan the respective class parties. After striving for ten days to sell magazine subscriptions, juniors labored the rest of the year to devise another best prom ever. The Sadie Hawkins Dance, senior day program, and gift to the school were products of senior teamwork. The many attractive and interesting displays found in the windows of Room 53 were furnished by art and foods classes and even by Miss Wood s geometry class In the cafe teria across the hall Mrs Webster and her help planned and prepared daily meals for about four hundred hungry students Teach ers too found it necessary to re arrange hair and dental appointments to meet with Mr, Mertz on the first Monday of each month.
