Libby Cody and Laura Bryan brush up for their painting and drawing course by sketching a clump of flowers. Students and faculty members made the most of summer vacation since it was shorter than the previous ones. The nine-week terms in the 1973-74 school year allowed students to enjoy extra holidays; but to make up for these days, school resumed on August 23. Band members kept up practice throughout the summer months to prepare for the football games and other competition. The Cavalier staff sent representatives Wendolyn Meadows and Mildred Sartor to a journalism seminar at the University of South Carolina during the week of June 18. Camp Kanuga in Hendersonville became the home for the six members of the VANGUARD staff as they made preparations for the 1974 annual. This journalism workshop lasted for one week beginning on June 24. Practice Fills Summer Months 8 Student Life-Summer

oc o a. IV ui LU a; O O OC a. You got out of a year what you put into it. Dorman students showed participation in all fields of extracurricular activi- ties—athletics, worthwhile charities, school programs, and much more. But through each, numbers never failed to enter the picture. Football players were viewed by sportscasters, sportswriters, and fans as numbers, not people, running across the field—numbers, not people, made that foul shot or stole that ball. Students became tagged with numbers once again as Delmar pictures were taken and numbers were designated to each person. No number, no picture!! Numbers entered the year still another time as prices continued to rise throughout the school term. E Not only were students num- bered, but also the cars they drove and the buses, too, were identified by the numbers on their sides, rears, and bumpers. Through all this, students kept trying to come through. Each wanted to be recognized, singled out from all the rest. We never ceased to make attempts to shed our numbers, to exist as individual people with individual needs.
