After totaling out one volkswagen, another traffic fiasco claimed his newly purchased volks- wagen as one of its three casualties. Along with Miss Roberta Brown's Volvo and Mrs. Betty Jones' Chrysler, Mr. Knigge's vehicle was hit by a Bellevue High School student who roared into the parking lot and never stopped. Steve Triumphs Again Lovable Steve Donovan turned on the charm once again and hypnotized his public into giving him the title of Handsome Harry 1967. The Ways and Means Committees annual Handsome Harry Hop turned into another Donovan triumph. After being elected sophomore class vice-presi- dent, A.S.B. vice-president, and A.S.B. President, the Handsome Harry crown makes Donovan a four time winner. On his way to becoming the handsomest boy in school Nl, Steve collected over 545.00 for the A.S.B. treasury. Co-chairmen Roby Harrington and Steve Poli- car announced that the Handsome Harry candidates collected a grand total of 514000. Others vying for the title included Marty Kaplan and Dan Leber, seniors: Bradd Bever, junior, and Dan Foley and Greg Knapp, sophomores. Ten year old Lawrence Chandler, younger brother of Vernell Chandler, teacher and chaperone, provided a touch of James Brown dancing. His gyrations, accom- panied by the sounds of the Revolution Kind, almost overshadowed Donovan's impressive fourth victory! Juniors Present Program Reliving the excitement of New Orleans' Basin Street Blues, spirituals and negro folk songs, students of the 5th and 6th period English classes of Mrs. Bates and Mrs. Lupton presented a program on Negro expression in music and literature. Along with the music came excerpts from such writers as Langston Hughes, Gwendolyn Brooks and James Baldwin. On April 27, the program was presented and included Kathy Allen, Sue Braun, Ed Erickson, Don Gibson, and Milana Groby. Others were Dave Hallek, Claire Ramsey. Tom Randall, Karen Tarr, Lynn Watts and Ann Wilson. On May 2, Sandy LeRoy joined them in a presentation for the morning team classes. The program expressed the idea the the Negro has been a generous giver to America in its formation. America would not be the same America if it did not possess the indelible imprint and silent power the Negro has exerted upon it. Lovable Steve Triumphs After weathering a cherry bomb sabotage, a bomb threat, smoking in the cans, a sock hop ban, a messy cafeteria and an ultimatum, the student body officers left office to make way for the new officers elect. This year's A.S.B. election of next year's officers was held during the first week of April. The nominating and acceptance assemblies started off election week. Then came speeches, more speeches, stickers, posters and finally the election. The voting machines were missing this year, so the votes were cast on a ballot form. The voters elected former A.S.B. Vice-President Steve Dono- van President. Ron Cohen was the unanimous choice for Vice-President. He ran unopposed. Barb Kimbrough will serve as student body council Secretary. The Man , Ralph Anderson was the people's choice for A. S. B. Treasurer.
