Well, another big dance of the year and no other than Erland Peterson look- ing lust as thrilled as can be, and who wouldn't with that pretty gal. Who is she, Erland? Well, guys, if you want to know you will have to ask him. All the couples who attended the dance really had a marvelous time and one that they are not apt to forget. A lot of hard work went into the dance and it was greatly appreciated by all. We would like to thank, not only those who helped with the decorations, but also those who attended because it took both to make the dance the big success it turned out to be. At the left are: Dr. Alma P. Burton, Superintendent; Maurice Abravanel, Con- ductor of Utah Symphony; Mr. L. B. Bennett, Principal; and Harold Gregory, Manager of Utah Symphony. We, the studentbody, are indeed grate- ful to these four men for bringing the Utah Symphony Orchestra to Orem High School. As a public service, the Utah Power and Light Company sponsored their appearance here. Their perform- ance helped us to appreciate symphony music. The concert held Orem High students spellbound. The Orem High School gym was almost filled to the brim when we held our pep rallies. They were thoroughly enioyed by all and certainly brought out the enthus- iasm and school spirit of Orem High before the games. This was one of the times during the year when the students learned the yells they didn't know and enioyed reviewing the old ones. The guys at O.H.S. really yelled this year, and the girls really hustled in trying to outdo them.. We always learned a lot in the half hour of pep rallies. The one thing we didn't like was going back to the next class, but thenethe pep rally was fun.

Queen Sharon Smith February brings about the Sweetheart Bali. Members of the FHA sponsor this dance and always come Up with a bang-Up affair. Every senior girl of the FHA is automatically 0 queen candidate. These girls put in a lot of time in their assem- bly and their dance is always beautifully dec- orated. Their theme, Some Enchanted Evening, was really fitting for such an exciting night. The dance is always held around Valentine's Day, which also adds to the setting of the dance. The queen is announced at the dance. The queen and her attendants then dance with their part- ners to the music of the theme. The day started with a wonderful assembly. An enchanting night club was the scene for the assembly. Many exciting things took place in the night club. The floor show was spec- tacular. They had singers, dancers, and everything imaginable. A romance also took place in the night club, but, of course, that isn't unusual dur- ing such a time of year. The next big moment was the dance, which was really wonderful. The day after the dance is iust as exciting. All the club members gather together in the girls' gym and really let their hair down when they are able to take the decoras tions down. The FHA is really to be congratulated on such 0 won- derful dance. First Attendant Second Attendant Janice Gibson Brenda Young 1H

Under the direction of Mr. Williams the Spanish Club did a great job in bringing their language to our school. The fun that club had was amazing. Pictured is their swearing-in, the best part of all when one finally becomes a new member. The food they had at that banquet would fill the largest of men. Each summer the Spanish Club goes on a tour to Mexico. This tour is also open to other students. It is loads of fun as well as being educational. Everything at their initiations was said in Spanish, and unless you understood Spanish, no telling what they said. This club added a lot to the O.H.S. activities, and we wish them success in the coming years. Here at one of our many dances is the Mexican Hat Rock in full force, with every- one having a ball. If there was anything that wore you out fast, it was the Hat Rock. That always called for a breather, but then there were those who seemed to have a lot of energy because after the Hat Rock they could take a Polka, and believe me, that is an accomplishment. Some of the guys and gals really had to concentrate on what to do next, but with the help of the circle they were in, they learned fast--they had to if they expected to last long. One of the skits during our many pep rallies was when five girls took the places of our main team. To imitate some of their characteristics Marilyn Wallace iKirby McMastert got at the foul time and every- one thought she was taking her last breath. But Kirby could sure hook them in. Sally Reese Uimmy Wilkinsont spent more time on the floor. but Jimmy was fast with good defensive work. Vickie Rowe iLee BunnelD thought she was playing football, but Lee made each shot count. Annette Aiken iBruce Wattst really lost her temper when a foul was called, but Bruce was rugged on the boards. Lorraine Gagon iRex Wrightt fired away from far back, but Rex came through with flying colors. H3
