A BETTER BETA batter is made by Robert Thompson, Carol Conner, and Bunny May. A LOOK OF shock appears on Lisa Scott’s and Vicki Shew’s face as they learn that someone ' s candid camera has caught them. AS SHE LEARNS what she must do. Bunny May seems in shock. NOT BELIEVING WHAT she is doing. Lisa Scott runs around the cafeteria not once but three times. Beta Bakers The candles flickered peacefully as the senior Beta Club members began their quest for eligible juniors to tap. The task became a little confusing at times while trying to find the right person, but the assembly progressed without too many incidents. As usual, the newly tapped members faced the day of their initiation with some apprehension and some excitement. The phrase “Beta Bakers bought a bit of butter but the butter the Beta Bakers bought was bitter became familiar to the juniors as they recited it for the privilege of having senior members autograph their signs. Of course, nothing other than the chance to be a member of the Beta Club compelled them to stir the imaginary batter while running around the cafeteria or standing on a table saying those special words. For all involved it was a day not to be forgotten, but the prospect of getting the new members next year” gave some consolation to the flustered Beta Bakers. A LOOK OF indignation shows on Joyce Shepherd ' s face as she stands on the table in the cafeteria. Bel j I nilu

Cclleees and Careers What a funny feeling it is to get lost in your own school! That is what happened on September 22nd to many students as they searched for the ap- propriate area of interest. Representatives gave speeches to make their branch of service, their col- lege, or their business seem more inviting. It was a night that proved helpful to many of those at- tending as they asked and pondered questions concerning their future. “Should I go to a four-year college or a two- year college?” “Should I go into the Army, the Navy, or the Air Force?” The decision is a difficult but rewarding one and College Career Night was one way of bringing it closer to reality. ACADEMIC OPPORTUNITIES ARE discussed by Donna Accettull from the University of Virginia. MEMBERS OF TFIE freshman class serve as guides for College Career Night. REPRESENTATIVES OF THE U.S. Army tell Barbara Hester that a career in the Army is not just for guys. COLLEGE CAREER NIGHT provides an interesting look into the future possibilities for Tommy Blevins, Ronnie Gillespie, Robin Kalber, and Joey Emerson. ' W rf r WJ. 14 College t :t Night

A Crowning Success “How does my hair look?” “Is my make-up okay?” “Oh! It ' s almost eight o ' clock. I think I’m going to faint!” These were only a few of the remarks heard behind stage that Saturday night, September 18. Forty-six girls were representing all the clubs, classes, and organizations of the school. Through all the nervousness and excitement, the contestants were calmed enough to practice the theme song, “I Enjoy Being a Girl,” with the aid of Mrs. Wilhite. Unlike previous years, there were eight finalists instead of five from which the queen and her court were chosen. With the help of Mrs. Winters and the SCA the pageant was a success. THE VOICES OF Patty Harris, Diane Wilson, Lori Robinson, Susan Blevins, and Becky Grinstead ring out strong in the practice session. ENTERTAINMENT IS PROVIDED by Becky McKinnon. Mary Blevins, and Laurie Craig while the contestants prepare themselves backstage for further competition. 16 Beauty Papcjnl
