With Coach Ken Shelton as sponsor and senior Debbie Oyler as president the Grap- plettes were bound to spread spirit. They com- peted with other clubs by entering a peppy banner in the banner contest sponsored by the Pep Club. The Grapplettes sponsored Northside's first Wrestling Homecoming on December 16. They sent invitations to all the wrestlers of past years, and throughout the match against Orange County they provided recognition of these wrestlers. Hard work by the girls in Grapplettes as- sured the success of the Regional Wrestling Tournament at Northside February 9, 10. The girls also made certain that buses were avail- able to transport students to Facquier High School in Warrenton, Virginia, for the state tournament February 16, 17 to wish the Vik- ings well in defending their state champion- ship title. Because the Sadie Hawkins Day Dance that they sponsored in spring 1967 was a tremen- dous success, the Grapplettes again planned this dance for spring 1968. Girls of all classes were urged to ask their dates early in order to avoid the rush. The Hard work of Northside's gi-applers through the '66-'67 season paid off with state championship title.

The early lilacs became part of this child, And grass and white and red morning-glories, and whztc and red clover and the song of the phoebe-bird, And the Third-month lambs and the SOW,S17ll'lhfC1lI'Zll litter and the marc sfoal and the cow S calf Spring doesn't come like a flash of light- ning or a clap of thunder. Gently infiltrating winter ways with its fresh new outlook and renewed strength, spring is probably one of the most welcomed seasons of the year, de- spite continued lawn mowing. Fields of flowers burst into bloom as do the halls of Northside when bright happy colors replace winter plaids, and sweaters are abandoned for shirt-sleeves. Cheerful sunshine, warmer weather, and April Showers make it easier to smile and stay in a good mood. Homework is often forgotten for congregating at Lendy's or the tennis courts. Convertible tops convert, early suntans appear, and weekends at the beach beckon when the sky is blue and the sun is high.
