... YEAR OF THE TIGER... “This may be the Year of the Dragon in the Orient, but in America it has clearly become the Year of the Tiger. The tiger has roared onto the advertising scene with irresistible force, turning up as a prop for everything from rented cars to hair oil.” One gasoline company is pushing its sales with pictures of a huge tiger and the advice: “Put a tiger in your tank’—A tire company is us- ing a tiger to stress the clawlike grip of its product. Tigers are puffing vim into breakfast food on the front of cereal boxes— Tigress nail polish and Tigress perfume are advertised with a tiger-stripe background - - - An automobile manufacturer has brought out a new sports car with the slogan, “Grab a Tiger by the Wheel” - - - As a symbol of school spirit, sportsmanship, traditions, and standards, the Tiger has burned brightly at MHS for decades. In recording the events, activities, and accomplishments of the more than eleven hundred high school and jun- ior high Tigers who have cooperated, competed, and achieved, to make this session one of the best in the history of our schools, the Camellian follows the lead of big business—and proclaims 1964-1965, THE YEAR OF THE TIGER AT MHS.
