Hard Work Pays Off Before the year began, the DRAMA CLUB was already busy planning its many activities for the upcoming year. C Now l've got the Doritos, who brought the cokes? J With the meetings every first Wednesday after the third moon passes through Venus - or is it each weekend of the annual Easter Parade? - a peaceful regularity was insured. C'No pass? Throw 'em out, Victorl j With a great amount of hard work CWhat? Run it again? j and a large amount of pride, the Drama Club presented the annual Spring Musical and spon- sored a play night, featuring three student-directed plays and the competition play, which placed first in the Region and second in State. The club accomplished all this by the efforts and determination of the group and the club's sponsor-director, Linda Wise. Her tireless Cand constantj push produced the very profes- sional-looking plays. A fun and frolicking din- ner-theater trip highlighted the club's year.

Students Learn About Health Careers Thanks to the clever workmanship of the members of ALLIED MEDICAL, teachers caught in a frenzy did not have to succumb to a spasmodic fit. Early in the year, padded tongue blades Cuopen in case of emergency J were dis- tributed to each faculty member. Yet, even this magnanimous feat was not the highlight of the cIub's activities. They won 2nd prize in the Fair Booth Competition at the American Legion Fair, assisted with the Special Olympics I i physicals, planned and purchased a Thanksgiving dinner for a needy family, S and made decorations for the doors of Rockdale Hospital at Christmas time. v The club offers constructive guidance, providing opportunities for the stu- dents to learn more about health-related careers.
