Choice Assemblies Are Presented by the The heavenly atmosphere of the Christmas Assembly lends much to the spirit of the season. The Nativity is one of the traditional scenes of this time of year. The Girls’ Organization, in presenting the Preference Assembly, used the theme “Through the Looking Glass.” Shown here are Debbie Heal, David Broadbent (with looking glass), Claudia Dayton, Clifford Maag. The Key Club Assembly was based on the Mickey Mouse Club the assembly, as trike-racing, jazz-playing, and other show. “Mickey Mousing” represents the greater part of nameless inanities occupied the greatest amount of time. — 14 —

Lettermen you say! No, you’re wrong this time. These perky little guys are really members of the Pep Club doing one of their many unique routines. Throughout the year, spectators at football and basketball halftimes were entertained by little girls with lollipops, big girls doing the Can-Can, mysterious girls with flashlights, and just plain girls.” the Mood of the Year for the Bulldogs THE LAST few days of August were devoted to Provo High’s annual registration. After meeting in the auditorium, each student dashed down the main hall to the gymnasium where he signed up for his classes. HOMECOMING was held on October 26th through the 30th. One of the main highlights of the week was building the bonfire on Thursday evening. Although the rain pelted down, it couldn’t quench the flaming bonfire or the participants’ enthusiasm. THROUGHOUT the year, many pep rallies were held to bolster school spirit. Unique skits, presented by the School Spirit Committee, contributed to the excitement and hopefulness of the pending game’s outcome. THE PEP CLUB provided half-time entertainment at the home game with Springville. Each club member, robed from her head to her knees in a gunny sack, paraded around the floor. Her humorous appearance brought about raucous laughter from the spectators. LEARNING the school song, participating in pep rallies, and watching the traditional girls’ football game during a noon activity was peremptory during the year’s“Hi Week.” During September, Provo High holds its traditional “Hi Week.” Singing school songs, learning new cheers, and participating in unusual activities are on the week’s agenda. At a noon pep rally, Roger Luck-enbach and others laugh as Jim Rees is doused in a tub of cold water.

Class Members, Clubs and Departments “THROUGH THE LOOKING GLASS” was the theme for the Preference Ball and assembly. The assembly was based on the story of Alice in Wonderland, but the Girls’ Organization added a new twist. THE CHRISTMAS ASSEMBLY, like the Thanksgiving one, was of a serious nature. The Nativity scene was ethereally beautiful, and Mr. Barker’s A Cappella Choir added a spiritual atmosphere. THE KEY CLUB was on a lighter note. It was based on the Mickey Mouse Club with everything including ears. Folk singing, solo singing, and harmonica playing were some of the talents exhibited. THE SOPHOMORE ASSEMBLY had a lighter-toned theme of “Horse-a-Lot.” Much talent was exhibited by this, the younger group of students, and no one could say the Sophomores didn’t show a few things to the older students! In the make-believe land of “Horse-a-Lot,” The collected entertainment consisted of dancers of various types, of singers, of a court jester, and of a fiery dragon. The Sophomore class appeared hard-up for talented female dancers as it called on its male members for fancy footwork: Carl Nelson, Steve Higginson, Dee Taylor, Mike Folster, Mike Scherrer, Lew Swain. The Sophomore assembly, with the theme of Horse-a-Lot” has many happy moments. The Princess, Eileen Dayton, is happy when rescued by the valient “Day.” The jester shows her collection of talent. Another talent which is found in “Horse-a-Lot” is Sherry Farrer. She dances beautifully to music from “My Fair Lady,” “I Could Have Danced All Night.” — IB —
