looking into things. A few dissatisfied customers might be quick to point out that this picture represents the closest the Commission ever got to work. But Mariano Garcia's somersaults at the mere mention of new sports equipment: Lois Drake's cries of joy over her learning to write and consequent ability to take the Commis- sion's minutes: Barbara Havi1and's threats of camping all night in the Spotlight office because she was far too busy to find time to go home: Barry Barnes' gray hairs which practically stood on end as he explained the problems of securing entertainment: Verle Sorgen's grief as he revealed the outcome of a monetary endeavor: and Roy Freeman's glazed stare at the mere mention of the word Koala-all of the foregoing and more proved that these students gave their all for the good of their school. 0 KN 'S Fish -.Q

Versatility was the keynote as lerry dashed madly through his varied duties of playing football, tromboning in the bands, pre- siding at the House of Advisory meet- ings, and arranging for the numerous unusual and successful dances and spe- cial events that distinguish the school year. The Big Man in many ways, George Moody took with him the familiar steps of experience -- Sophomore president and then commissioner of finance, which ultimately led to the position of student body president.

However, the fact that George is larger than the other members of the Commis- sion probably had something to do with the peace which reigned. Aided by Carol Egly, who worked diligently for all the girls' welfare, and by Mr. Clyde, who sincerely interested himself in the affairs of the school, George brought the year to a most auspicious conclusion.
