THEY COULD HAVE DANCED ALL NIGHT— Seniors, juniors, sopho- mores, and teachers danced to the music of the Herman Binkley Orchestra. Moonlight and Mistletoe put glow into THINK YOUNG AND REFRESH— Refreshments provided for the cou- ples were made by the Home Economics classes. The Girls ' Gym provided a quiet, pleasant setting for the young couples. Moonlight and Mistletoe was the theme of this year ' s Christmas Snowball Hop December 17. Through efforts of the Student Council committees headed by Tim Morrison, Walt Sorg, Larry Stroble, Michelle Maul, Chris Cogswell, Stan Graves, Bev Quandt, Don Campbell, Cindy Mervine, decorations, of Kelly green and white graced the halls and Cafeteria. The Cafeteria walls were draped in stately white with green streamers and tinsel-covered mistletoe balls hanging gaily from the lights. The traditional mirrored ball of cut- glass was suspended in the middle of the room to add the touch of elegance. The Herman Binkley Orchestra provided the entertainment. There was also a sleigh and Christmas trees in the room. Pictures were taken by the west exit. By the Girls ' Gym, doors dedicated to both the classes and the faculty glowed with Christmas-colored wrapping paper as each was to repre- sent one huge Christmas package. The girls ' powder room, too, was decorated in a glistening array of moon and stars. Thousands of cookies and green punch made by the Home Economic classes were served as refreshments. Sponsors of the Snow Ball Hop were Mr. James Sherron, Mr. Edmund Zapp, Mr. James Dupont, Mrs. Etta Wolfe, and Mrs. Sharon Cichowicz.

Bold stripes, paisley prints, suede shoes. One of the most important things to a fashion-minded student is keeping up with the ever-changing clothings fads. Each year sweeps in new styles and colors. What were they wearing in ' 67? The spotlight shifts to the fashion scene. The feminine set sported hig-hugger skirts accented with wide-buckled belts combined with velour sweaters of plum, olive green, gold, heather, and orange. Over-the-knee stock- ings in various textures and prints completed the ensembles. Also popular with gals were the boy-shirts with the high col- lars and paisley printed ties. A-line shifts with bell-shaped sleeves, and mini-skirts revealing dimpled knees. This was the year of the op art jewelry in the form of huge dangling pierced earrings, bangle bracelets, and multi- colored necklaces. Girls ' shoes boasted stacked heels, huge buckles, open sides, open heels. The conventional loafers and suede shoes with straps and ties were in. NHHS guys were fashion conscious too. They favored corduroy jackets, shirts of stripes or polka dots, tapered pants in solids and prints, and velour sweaters. Loafers were the popular shoes among the males. As for hair, most boys found a happy medium between the Beatle bob and the shaven look. FANCY FOOTWEAR— Though the ordinary loafer would win the NHHS shoe popularity poll, Mod shoes gave the wearer distinction. YIPES STRIPES — Fruit striped gum? No, bright striped shell sweaters matched with hip-hugger skirts made big, bold news with gals. EARRINGS ON PARADE — Pierced earrings — round, dangling, geomet- rical, and made of everything from wood to enamel — adorn feminine ears. •» 4|l
