Clockwatching temporarily replaced girlwatching as track and baseball superseded basketball.

Weeks of work, time, and determination paid off when the Drama Club presented two successful plays. Patti Forsythe earned special recognition for an outstanding performance in The World Withm.', Three year school veterans auditioned for their class play and later took the National Merit Test, hoping for a scholarship.

Spring came and with it an epidemic of the most teacher dreaded disease .... Spring Fever. Among yearbook staff members, tension bubbled as the Copper Cat deadline came and sighs of relief breathed when the final pages were mailed. Tracksters could be found running up and down hills and round and round the football field, while sackers practiced at the diamond.

The scent of sulfur smoke was welcomed on lVlarch 19 as the strike was ended and Phelps Dodge resumed operation. Extra cash was earned to buy helpers at the annual Slave Auction in support of next year's AFS program. Three years of hard work paid off as six students were initiated into National Honor Society. Planning, sewing, and modeling practice staged a fine fashion show at the Spring Open House. Welcoming Easter vacation, many students caught up on sleep lost earlier.
