5 Hair we go again fin ii iii ii ii ii 5 . . 5 . Z il Anderson's bugging by Schoolgate con- spirators brings out information for new students in an orientation assembly. At LEFT, Keith Wilson, the nightwatchman, catches buggers, Paul Johnson, Doug' Kirkpatrick, and Daniel Fields. September is another wet month in a wet year. At RIGHT, Wendy Robbins is prepared with an umbrella, Lydia Tosh wishes she had one. Students at school have ac- tivities beyond the classroom and regular organizations. We get to ap- preciate each others' styles. Hair styles range from long to short, straight to curly, Afros, pony tails, Super Fly, blow-outs, French braids, plaits, Macks, Elvis Presleys, even a few crew cuts and a Mohican. Any style, with a few restrictions, is all right, as long as it is right for you. Things at Anderson in its third year of integration are pretty good. In fact, the theme of the Watergate Orienta- tion assembly is that the buggers were trying to get the secret of Anderson's success for other schools. Hair style? Varied! New faces in the Wanted posters at LEFT are Delray Scott and Don Doyle. Delray's long locks are in sharp contrast to the Mohican styly shaved for Don by his father. BELOW, Vera Guevera, Tony Peoples, Liann Swope, Teresa Robinson, and Chuck Vance display more hair today styles. At Anderson, to each his own! ililii' mi 2
