Participation in drives lacked enthusiasm Senior participation in the Toys for Tots and Paper Drive seemed to be evidence of a lack of class enthu- siasm and unity. “I gave all the toys I could find to the eighth grade for my brother. ” — Dottie Martin “I didn’t know there was a paper drive.” — Anonymous “Yes, I felt a need to help others. ” — Donna Inge Other goals seemed more important to the senior student than these drives and they passed without much notice. Class unity it seemed was something for those younger to cling to, however class spirit was in abundance, proven by the winning of the spirit stick at pep rallies Seniors — 25

At the beginning of second semester some found themselves in a state of either panic or shock because they were failing in certain subjects required to grad- uate. Others glided through looking forward to hear- ing from colleges. Acceptance and rejection kept these seniors in constant limbo. Some still didn’t re- alize what their responsibilities were and busied themselves trying to earn prestige and recognition as a “Senior”. Some seniors were given the priveledge of study halls. Most found themselves on hall duty, or work- ing as assistants to teachers, because they chose not to elect any other classes. Study halls were often used for various other activities; usually anything but study. Those students taking harder subjects, or with tight schedules, were sometimes forced to uti- lize study halls effectively; but for most seniors these free hours provided ample time for relaxation. “The perfect class would be study hall with noth- ing to study. ” — Anonymous PAMELA BUNTING MOORE. “Pam.” Transferred from Jefferson Davis Jr. HS 9; Pep Club 9; Homecoming Rep. 9; Basketball Night Rep. 9; Majorette 10; FHA 9.
