Bowed heads. Theodora Lee delivers the invo- cation at the Keywanette charter banquet, held at the Ramada Inn East in lanuary. Stephanie Crimes, sophomore Keywanette member, said, The serv- ice projects leave me with a good feeling. I was going to join Key Club this year, except it's an all-male group. I'm glad they made Keywan- ettes. Keywanettes got its start last year, when several girls petitioned for a girls' Key Club. Sponsors were found early this year. Dr. Martha Williams and Sharon Roy, and the club held elections in October. They received a charter from the White Rock Kiwanis Club in December, and held their charter banquet at the Ramada Inn East, Jan. 24. The Key Club continued to partici- pate in service projects, although nearly de-tied when members pro- posed that the tradition of tie-wear- ing be dismissed. The March of Dimes Haunted House was haunted by Key Clubbers, and several mem- bers participated in a CPR training course at the Red Cross, as well as the four hours for life Leukemia Tele- thon in January and a toy-making project for needy children.

Poster child provides inspiration to March of Dimes helpers I saw a little girl named Diana walk for the first time without her braces. She was a March of Dimes poster child. Steve Bardin, junior and lieutenant governor of the East Texas Oklahoma division of Key Clubs International said this after attending the international conven- tion in Washington last summer. He continued, What made me realize how important our work was, was knowing that our projects, like for the March of Dimes, could help people like Diana to walk. A universal purpose, a large num- ber of interested members, sincerity and good organization were ele- ments needed for a good school club. The Key Club and the newly formed Keywanetle chapter, found and used these elements as they served the school and community with more active man and woman hours than any other Skyline group. Recognized by their ties or dresses, which they had to wear on meeting days, both groups had over 50 active members each, who participated in at least two activities a month. Breath deep.

The calm before the storm. CDC counselor Bob Bump puts a finishing touch on posters for College night. Approximately 750 students, parents and representatives were soon to arrive on the scene. Students learn about life after high school In an attempt to find out if there is life after high school, an estimated 750 stu- dents and parents attended College night. Sept. 18. 84 local and out-of-state colleges and universities had represent- atives set up displays in the student cen- ter and lunchroom areas. Career Development Cluster counse- lor Bob Bump said that College night was a big success — more so than those at many other schools since Skyline puts all colleges represented in one central area. Many other high schools holding College night must separate the col- leges into classrooms which prevents smaller colleges from getting as much exposure. Almost half of the universities attend- ing College night were from Texas with 20 from Arkansas, Oklahoma, Louisiana and Tennessee. Some representatives from as far away as Michigan, New York and Connecticut also attended. High school counselors were also on hand to answer questions and give gen- eral information about Skyline's cluster programs. Information please. Counselors Sylvia Valle and teo Naeger greet visitors to College night. Counselors set up shop in DE and Co. to pro- vide information for guests. Open for business.
