Waste. 504445 AGZOVXJLG4 Cammiflfiee With the crash of falling ladders and a boisterous voice demanding, Quick, throw me some crepe paper! the Social Activities Committee was hard at work decorating for a dance. Leading this committee through its many activities was Judie Block, Redwood's Commissioner of Social Activities. Mrs. Wulzen served as advisor to the committee. Moonlight Madnessl' was the first dance presented this year by the committee. The bids for this affair were designed by Marilyn Bunker. The Hi-Liters, a band composed of Redwood students, supplied the music. Along with the Christmas season came the annual Snowball which was attended by many students. A ten-foot Christmas tree with red ornaments was the highlight of the dec- orations for the dance. Music was presented by Walt Tolleson and his orchestra. Another activity of the committee this year was the television program, Dance Party. Thirty couples from Redwood appeared on the show. The main obstacle in the path of the committee during the past year was how to dec- orate our gigantic gym. After putting their heads together, they eventually came up with several original decorating schemes. The dances drew great numbers of the students and N Q for each dance the bids were a complete sell-out. The Social Activities Committee for this 'W year has been an active part of Redwood's extra-curricular activities. ROW ONE: J. Block, M. Bunker, P. Wallace, T. Galli, J. Lerner, C. Bland, B. Bost, S.

The main purpose of the l'ublic Relations Committee this past year was to inform the student body and faculty of all the major athetic contests. dances. and other such significant events by creating and distributing posters along Redwood's corridors and occasionally in local store windows. Usually occupying an art room or the halls and walls thereabouts. the members of this committee applied their art skills and creativeness by first rubbing art gum erasers down to tiny crumbs while trying to formulate ideas, then by spreading tempera paint or making wild, screeching noises with magic markers on wide rolls of white butcher paper. Commissioner Mike Spencer also provisoned for a more thorough local newspaper coverage by establishing a special sub-committee, headed by Pete l'ike. which gathered worthy news items and forwarded them to Redwood's Student News liureau, managed by Jeff Skov and Penny West. The latter journalists were responsible for writing and delivering the stories to such papers as the INDEPENDENT JOURNAL, ROSS VALLEY TIMES, 'I'l- IRURON PELICAN, and the MILL VALLEY RECORD. The Public Relations Committee provided the decorations for the Student Leaders' Conference held at Redwood in November and brought more sup- port to the spring sports by creating posters for the various baseball, swim- ming. and track events.

The only peo- ple left were the football players out rolling in the mud and the office secre- taries madly typing away. But if one journeyed down to the art room. things were a little different. A babble of voices Could be heard and as one gazed at the rushing students, splashing colors, and the piles of posters. it could be only one thing, the Spirit Committee was in action. During the early fall it was organized to Complement the Public Relations Committee. With unlimited membership. it soon became one of the most active organizations at Redwood. Cracking the whip was fall head yell-leader, Bob Talmadge. The hours after school spent making posters and spirit rib- bons were rewarded when the football games came around. The sight of the cheering section's card stunts was impressive, And the smile that went from ear to ear on llob Talmadge's face meant success. Then in December. Ronie Sue Anderson took over and her spirit must have been infectious as the committee kept up its pace of spirited projects for basketball season. lt was the tirst year of the spirit committee and its activities made it first in Spirit at Redwood High School 1961.

Fr At the head of a long crowded room stood an imposing figure, clad in the latest fashions, holding the latest in umbrellas, and speaking of the latest in original ideas. This was Don Deane, head of the Programs Committee. Arrayed before him were the committee, munching on apples while determining the fate of the next rally. 4 4 . . . . . iffffw When their ideas remained at the bottom of their lunch bag, strings were pulled tured personalities. When professionals were unable to appear, hometown enter- that turned out to be dignified administration heads cutting up! At the end of the Hrst semester a tired sigh arose as they scraped the bottom of .4 the idea barrel. With the beginning of the second semester a new motto was born, efficiency! Like a wonder tonic the coming of organization served to revitalize tired committee members. Committees were organized: financial, entertainment, and pub- licity. New heights were reached! The committee continued to plan assemblies, class rallies, and just plain rallies, each one having more polish than the one before. Work- ing as a team, this year's Program Committee is an example of what can be accom- plished with exuberant enthusiasm and good organization. ROW ONE: T. Wade, M. McGrane, N. Griffith, D. Deane, A.
