The features included group scenes of life in the 50’s such as a day in the life of Daddy Cool as portrayed by Mr. Leroy Williams. At the hop, the teachers rocked and rolled, twisted, and slow danced to the music of “The Splatters.” “Teen Angel” and “Rock Around the Clock” were among the song hits Mr. Jim Roberts as “The Leader of the Pack” races across the The cast of the Faculty Talent show makes its final bow. stage. played. — The rock and roll group called “The Splatters” entertains the audience as they Miss Bonita Gabor attracts attention as she walks to sing “Mashed Potato.” school.

Politics, Spirit, Meetings... Meetings of the Student Govern- ment Association were held during homeroom every Monday and Thursday, giving the officers a chance to discuss school problems. Homeroom Representatives met once a week to be informed of the latest happenings. Dr. Cherry met with them twice, once to discuss the Homecoming dance, and again to speak about the need for agsemblies and school spirit. A spring dance was planned but had to be called off the day before it was supposed to take place because only four tickets had been sold. The S.G.A. raised about $100 from fund raising and dances during the year. The money was used to off-set expenses the S.G.A. incurred and to pay for the charitable donations made during the year. The S.G.A.’s activities culminated with the election of new officers. Sylvia Capehart is inducted as the new S.G.A. President. First Row: Caronne Ellis—Treasurer, Cassandra Goodwyn—President, Sylvia Capehart—Secretary. Second Row: Mary Dawkins—Vice-President, Mr. Joseph Rociask—Sponsor, Wilton Madison—Publicity Director. 22-Student Government Association
