Vocational Courses Prepare Students For The Future Students in Vocational Classes acquire knowledge and skill through actual experience of job training and lab courses. As vocations appear to be the question with many, talents are adjusted to fit desired lines of work, and students are prepared for their future.

MR. BILL STEWART B.S., M.Ed.g S.F.A.: American History, Spon- sors Key Club Citizenship The required courses of history and civics are links connecting the past and the present. An interpretation of the past, present, and future is suessed. Students are kept busy studying consti- tutions, reading newspapers, watching and ana- lyzing TV news reports, as well as studying text materials. The purpose of these courses is to develop enlightened citizens who have knowledge of the past and an interest in the future of our world. Studying for a test on the U. S. Constitution keeps Civics students busy. Sportsmanship, Health, Co-ordination P. E. students find library materials helpful. Acquired in PE. As academic classes develop students mentally, P. E. classes develop the students physically. Many activities are included such as football, basketball, tennis, volleyball, track, baseball, ping pong, modern dance, and health stud- ies. Whether it is calisthenics or book work, P. E. students are eager for a chance to break the monotony of regular clas routine with an hour of physical activity. MR. GUYLE AKRIDGE MRS.

V-Day Add Thinking that a deviation from the reg- ular school schedule would arouse enthusi- asm and bolster school spirit, a committee of teachers and students originated the idea of V-Day - a day on which class schedules were reversed, students taught classes, and members of the faculty provided entertain- ment while the students enjoyed a picnic lunch on the campus. Classification of stu- dents was readily determined by the fact that Seniors wore red, Juniors wore blue, and Sophomores wore white. A musical pro- gram concluded the school dayg the highlight of the day's activities came when a costume ball was held that night in the gym. Everything from trench coats to bridal gowns was modeled in the fashion show which the teachers presented for the students' enter- tainment. ,,,mxa..msmzmrr Iolor To School Year rx To be admitted to the CHARACTER BALL, each student had to portray a story- book character. Only club representatives competed for prizes. Second place winners Joseph Spitler and Fran Williams character- ized Cleopatra and Mark Antony.

Students Stage A Political Convention On school campuses all over the country, students gath- ered to nominate a President ofthe United States. These mock political conventions were to provide the students with an understanding of the practical politics involved in choos- ing a candidate. L.H.S. campus politicians let their enthusi- asm run wild in staging their own Democratic Convention. Posters waved, bands played, and spirals of ticker tape flew through the air as demonstrators rallied for their candidates. In true Texas style, favorite-son Lyndon Johnson was chosen on the third ballot. Johnson supporters rallied for their candidate and led him to victory.

Everyone ate to the point of being miserable, but it was the sweet kind of misery that comes with an excess of pleasure. mqsas.ssc,:sssaaem,-gt, s e se: i - ' 11-fs fl Q 'iii' 94 4c 3f3 i fu .

It was more, however, than an assembly program it was the seniors' way of saying farewell to their high school. Under the direction of Miss Boozer, Mr. Lucas, and Master of Ceremonies David Anderson, the show featured senior talent exclusively. After the last number, the senior class key was presented to the junior class, signifying the shift of senior responsibilities to the juniors. With the class song echoing in their ears, the seniors, many with tear- filled eyes, filed out of the auditorium, and the juniors moved down to occupy the senior seats.

Outstanding Students Have The outstanding students of the school receive their rec- ognition as members of the National Honor Society, the most select organization in the school. The National Honor Soci- ety requires that all students must maintain the scholastic average of eighty-eight per cent or better on semester grades. Of course, the scholastic average is not the only thing on which the pupils are graded. Leadership, service, and char- acter are considered equally important as scholarship. The prestige gained by meeting the membership requirements makes the reward worth the effort.
