SWINGFRJ' H LP UOMMHNITY The Senior Y-Teens have been quietly busy this year. Under the able leadership of Jo Ann Schlichte, they have served the community and enjoyed themselves at the same time. In the fall they participated in the UNICEF and Leukemia Drives by ringing doorbells and utilizing available foot power. To supplement their treasury as well as to donate to worthy causes, the Senior Y-Teens held swap meets, bake sales, bottle collections, and canned food drives. Keeping profits high, the girls supply the merchandise. Much of the pro- ceeds go toward the Nancy Nave Nursing Scholarship. For pleasure, joints with Key Clubs of other schools are organized, looked forward to eagerly, and participated in enthusiastically. The biggest event of the year is the Carou- sel, a semi-formal dance held in spring for all Y-Teens. The Seniors helped decorate the hall. Relaxing after another busy session are Secretary-Treasurer Alyce Whittington, Inter-Club Council Representative Betty Breece, President Jo Ann Schlichte, and Vice-President Sande Miller. It seems Sande can think better without shoes. 1 L4 Girls, most of whom seem to be talking, pile on the furniture to form a compact group making plans for fund-raising activities and projects bene- fitting the community. In on the creative thinking are Sue Holm, Sande Miller, Betty Breece, Linda Hitch, Peggy Gramoy, Diane Bussing, Margie Klukas, Alyce Whittington, Jeannette Stock, Nancy Hollis, Diane Wilkerson, Mimi Auger, Charlotte Clark, and Jo Ann Schlichte. All are smiling, oblivious of any tests the following dav.

Gathered behind her are the cheerful officers. They are Mary England, Laura Subber, Christian Fallet, Ralph Traber, Laura Albertson, and Mila Bulat. International Club was more organized and active this year than ever before. At the beginning of the year, members and sponsors of other schools in the county were invited to the first inter-school meeting. Ideas for events were proposed, including an International Day and letters sum- arizing the school year to former exchange students. Later in the fall Ralph Traber showed slides of his summer as an A. F. S. exchange student in Germany and Mimi Auger showed hers of France, which she visited with her mother and a group of other Californians. lVIa.ny district schools participated in a World Dance Festival held in the Monarch gym on January 22. The proceeds will provide part of the S700 needed to bring another exchange student to the Monarchy. Soon after, the officers and other members expended considerable time and effort for an Inter- national assembly during the Week of bond sales and a dance to follow the Donkey Basketball game. President Christian Fallet, Vice-President Mary England, Secretary Laura Subber, Treasurer Mila Bulat, and Student Council and Adult Chapter representatives Laura Albertson and Ralph Traber worked with committees to raise the remainder of the 3700.

Another similar sale was held later in the year. Car washes were also a means of raising money. One was planned as a joint with the El Cajon Key Club. The junior girls marched for Leukemia. They had a canned food drive on Thanksgiving to give needy families a pleasant holiday and collected fruit for the inmates of Spring Valley Sanitarium. Rum- mage sales also increased available funds. A project looked forward to by the group was helping with the construction of Angeles Unaware in El Cajon, for the mentally retarded. The girls helped with the mentally retarded at Monte Vista. Joints were held with neighboring Key Clubs. The highlight of the year was Carousel, a semi-formal dance for all Y-Teens.
