1963 November 15, 1963: For days young gals all over South High chased and happily caught young eligible bachelors. The fellows had hid behind waste baskets, and under desks—anywhere they could find refuge. But South High gals weren’t the type to be discouraged easily. Most caught their fellows and dragged them to the dance. There everyone had a “high oF time.” The modem city slickers danced to the music of the Yetti Men, while the country dudes danced old time polka and schottischcs in the girls' gym. When the cunning Tiger females had danced the poor unaware fellows into a state of exhaustion, each dragged her catch to the altar where they were married by Marry’in Sam. However the fellows had one consolation: the marriage was only temporary. Sadie Hawkins Celebration ended, and once again single men could walk the halls of old South High in peace. Happy (?) groom accepts his marriage license. P. Frcdcll drags W. Rogers to the altar. TeGantvoort hooks Harrington 13

THAT DAY OF SUPERSTITION -FRIDAY THE IBTH— Ladders!! Shamrocks!! Horseshoes!! and Dancing—all were a part of the superstition dance on Friday, December 13. These symbols of the living spirits rocked with the best to the music of Greg and the Avantes. Every kind—yes, every type of South High student attended. The younger students were always on the. lookout for ladders under which they didn’t want to wander. Seniors, always looking for good luck, clustered around shamrocks. Long after the students left, the spirits remained. Surely the lunchroom will never be the same. These spirits will always be there to haunt South High students as long as there is a South High!
