Here Each Finds an Interest The contrast in activities at Peru High, from Patrol Club to formal dances, is sharp. There is something for the shy, serious, light-hearted, pensive, and generous student. From the be- ginning of the year to the end, the school cal- endar in Mr. Delph ' s office is crowded with activities in which all can participate. Girls had a chance to see just how the op- posite sex have to budget their money, when they asked the boys for dates during Sadie Hawkins week. School work comes first, but PHS students are fortunate to have so many extra-curricular activities. But, of course, orchids are my favorite flowers, ' Carol Erlenbaugh assures Jerry Bradley at the Thanks- giving Dance, Moonlight and Shadows. The dance was sponsored by the Triangular Club, composed of senior girls. Unusual bracelets and key rings were given as favors to those attending. Emphasizing that safety is no joke is Mr. Noel Davis, sponsor of the Patrol Club. Members are Bill Myers, Larry Butzin, Ronnie See, Dick Hendricks, Charles Soams, Kenny Gipson. In the back row are Steve Grimes, Chuck Phillips, John Marcotte, Richard Garver.

We Wcrfch Football, Dote, ond Donee From fall to Christmas we found many op- portunities to forget the problems of academic life. During the early months of school, most of our Friday nights were spent at Bengal Sta- dium, watching the Tiger football team enjoy one of their best seasons as they won the Con- ference championship. Although some students found football un- interesting, nearly all were fascinated by the half-time shows put on by the Band. Neither cold winds nor frosty autumn air chilled the enthusiasm of the performing Tigerettes and Majorettes. After the football season, dances helped us forget the monotony of the daily grind. Those who attended the annual Christmas Dance sponsored by the Girls ' League remember the surprise visit from Santa and the College Club- men from Purdue. Strutting and fretting their hours upon the stage are the PHS Tigerettes. Their stage during the fall was the football field where they alternated shows with the Majorettes during half-time at home games. There couldn ' t be enough room for him to go up, exclaims Rpnny Burkhart to his date, Jackie Devine left, during the intermission of the Christmas Dance. Assuring Ronnie that Santa always manages to get up the chimney are Pat Clark and Janie Struble.
