Some of the year's ac- tivities included the fall welcome for the faculty, decoration of the Christmas tree, the UNICEF drive, and the Cerebral Palsy Drive. Heart Sister week and Twirp week were the fun activities sponsored by the Kayettes. Heart Sister week consisted of giving a secret pal identity hints and some candy or gum every day. The climax of the week was a valentine's gift from the Heart Sister. Twirp week gave every girl a chance to chase the boy of her dreams.
