Karen suckers. Circu Gaiety Envelops LH Soft lights, low music, tinkling waterfall-perfect end to a perfect evening. The prom's over, but its enchantment lingers in the minds of Jane Edwards and Buzzy Henderson as they squelch the hunger pains that accompany fun and gaiety.

Getting to like you, getting to hope you like me, sings senior Kathy White 1 to her attentive Siamese students as she portrays Anna in The King and I, the eleventh annual edition of the LHS exchange assembly. ' Allow me, Miss, offers Frank Freeman to Dianne Thompson as they, Lamar Forrest, Martha Cates, Sammy Reeves, and Tanya Holmes, along with 700 other cow- pokes and ladies, arrive in stylel' for Roundup. For Westerners, spring was as exciting as a circus. The LHS exchange assembly headed the acts parading into the arena with a presentation of their colorful reproduction of The King and I. The applause had scarcely ceased when story- book characters brought out a goody-filled table and proceeded to enjoy the annual Y-Teens ban- quet. Then, with a whoop and a holler, cowboys stampeded out of the chute and grabbed their Taw to square dance in the center ring. Whiz kids then tramped out toting slide rules, spellers, oratories, poems, and typewriters to demonstrate the skills they were to show off at Interscholastic League. Suddenly 450 little kids-seniors who had never grown up-interrupted the educators. But they stayed only until their popsicles melted and then surrendered to the politicians campaign- ing for student body and class offices. Next, the lights dimmed and a Deep Purple mist en- veloped juniors and seniors in the stands. But, too soon, the romance and gaiety vanished and the lights were brightened so that the fans could leave the circus grounds.

Ummm, good eatin', chomp spring picknickers, Susan Sanders, Nub Neighbors, Roy Heath, Rex Fuller, Charley Ray, Dwayne Wilson, Mike James, Sue Hancock, and Eddie Broome as they enjoy one of the season's first watermelons. School's fine as long as the weather's cold, but at the first hint of green trees and warm sunshine, students flee their routines and books and head for the outdoors-on Saturday, that is. Erect, proud, and relieved that after twelve years of studious labor their efforts are finally rewarded, Bonita Abbe, John Boswell, Mary Boyce, Ruby Copelin, Don Davis, Trent Humphries, and Gilley Treadaway practice receiving their diplomas. 26
