Ice Cream Social Following the Varsity Homecoming Football Game, the Ice Cream Social took place in the cafeteria. This event was catered by Baskin Robins 31 Fla¬ vors. Faculty and students choose fla¬ vors from chocolate chip mint to va¬ nilla at each booth. The latest hits were playing on the radio to entertain the people, while they sat gorging themselves on their favorite ice cream. The Ice Cream Social was attended mostly by freshmen and sophomores; this was to their advantage because it helped them get acquainted with each other. The freshmen were able to meet other classmates of their year, that they might not have been able to meet during school. The sophomores were able to meet the incoming freshmen. Seniors, Sue Rabin and Linda Schmidt organized this special event. Sue says ' This social turned out to be a fun event despite the loss of our Home¬ coming Game.
