'films fs limmef rum At 3:00, June 4, 1975, the bell rang and summer vacation started, from then until 8:15 on August 25, 1975, most students left books and studying behind and began to enjoy a rest from the normal routine of school. Various activities lay ahead of the students as many had plans for trips, camp, jobs or summer school. Students attended FCA camp, yearbook and newspaper workshops, band camp, cheerleading camp and several sports camps, depending on their areas of involvement in school. These camps gave them ideas to organize their various clubs and ac- tivities. Those involved in 4-H clubs around the county found judging was just around the corner as they neared the completion of their projects. Many took part in fairs, exhibits, contests and the different levels of judging connected with their clubs. A total of 435 CHS students at- tended summer school, taking advan- tage of the opportunity for another class or earning an extra credit. Stu- dents were enrolled in such courses as Driver's Ed., Biology, U.S. History and Government. During the vacation, students found summer jobs which helped supply them with money for vacation spend- ing. Many found jobs mowing yards, working on farms, lifeguarding at public swimming pools, babysitting or working at local stores and res- taurants. Mostly, summer was filled with everything the students like best, find- ing time for a favorite sport or hobby, being with friends, riding around, being alone to think, catching up on the favorite soap operas, or just doing nothing at all. Finally, after three months of vacation and leisure ac- tivities, students prepared to start back to school and begin the long wait for next summer. 18 'l fw fr?-- ' . ,. 1' . -4- .vs it 4, 41' M

Classes, clubs, and organizations spent the pre-homecoming week constructing floats with everything from goal-posts to Venetian blinds. While several students spent Homecoming eve putting last min- ute touch ups on their float entries, other future grads danced to the music of Sky King in the Girls' Gym. Early the next morning, the floats, cars, and the Trojan Band formed into one of the most color- ful homecoming parades yet and made their way to the high school. In the midst of the beautiful October afternoon, our Trojan gridders met the Muncie Southside Rebels, chalking to their successful 1975 season another victory, 39-0. Adding to the weekend gala, was the crowning of Katie Edwards as the 1975 Homecoming Queen. Homecoming '75, the fourth reunion for CHS and NHS grads, seemed to be a duplication of five years ago with beauti- ful weather, a beautiful queen, and a vic- tory by our Trojans. Old spirits were refurbished and new ones commenced as homecoming 1975 became a memory. Hours of hard and devoted work usually pay off, and the seniors of '76 found this to be true as their red, white, and blue Bicentennial float won first place honors in the homecoming parade. C
