Hootenanny . . . Some foot-stomping bluegrass music. and the crowd gathered. Our gymnasium was the scene for two hooten- annies this year. The first hoot featured the Riveras and the New Coachmen. Eleven hundred students were introduced to Jello for the first time. Barbe- qued chicken and rain were the hits of the night. The second hoot, the Hollywood Hootenanny, was a great success. The whole cast, straight from Hollywood, California, said that PBJC was the best audience they had had on the tour. Entertainers were the Wellynbrook Singers; the Yachtsmen Quartet; the Pine Valley Boys; Gypsy Boots and his Hairy Hoots; Chloe Marsh; and Jim and Jean, the Hootenanny Sweethearts. Gypsy Boots and his antics, including a dance with Pam Dickey, was the show stopper of the evening. The star??? Pull up a chair and sit on the floor.

i Tapping and Blood Drive . . . Spreading the light. The day of recognition for a lot of hard work. Phi Theta Kappa is a fraternity for those full time students who maintain a 3.0 scholastic av- erage. Each semester students are invited to join Phi Theta Kappa by formal invitation.

The blood drive held twice a year, is sponsored by Thi Del social club for the benefit of PBJC students, faculty and their families. The clinic, open on February 20, took in 141 pints of blood. Donations are taken to the Palm Beach Blood Bank to be held in reserve. I hope I can trust her not to take it all. That ' s

Sadie Hawkins Dance and H.S. Visitation . . . Where ' s Daisy Mae? The confusion ' s just begun. Straight from Dogpatch. Elaine Hopkins and Casey Wheeler were select- ed as Daisy Mae and L ' il Abner for 1963 at the an- nual Sadie Hawkins Dance. The money collected through votes for Daisy Mae and L ' il Abner was given to the Dollars for Scholars fund. Music was provided by the Impalas and Marryin ' Sam performed nuptial ceremonies for the special fee of 25 cents. Why me? Birds of a feather . . . Each year the Junior College hosts the local high school sen- iors for a tour and a free coke. One by one the high schools come to get a view of the campus and our college life. They wander around— in and out of the buildings getting an idea of some of the goin ' s-on at Palm Beach Junior College. After re- ceiving their free cokes in the lounge, the students return to their high schools with opened eyes. 17
