Remember the work, Southwest has been the scene of many rewarding experiences during this past year. We have worked faithfully to reach a goal; we have laughed even when things went wrong; and finally we were rewarded for our attempts to bring success to our school. On these two pages is a review of the work, the fun, and the rewards we have shared. Laughter filled the auditorium as the teachers took the students' place and presented a talent show. Many of the students were surprised to see that teachers could do something other than stand in front of a class room everyday. The story of ''Ferdinand the Bull seemed to be the most hilarious because of Mr. Robinson's appearance in black leotards. He Ain't Done- Right By Nell, a presentation by the dra- matics class, wonsmilesof approval among the students. Although the class was a new one at Southwest, the characters in the play showed definite signs of superior work. Memories of sweet little Nell, the sly villian, and the slips of the tongue were remembered long after the final curtain was drawn. Another successful addition to Southwest's curriculum was the boys'home economics class taught by Mrs. Elizabeth Greene. The boys took a genuine interest in learning to sew, cook, and draw house plans. Everyone was pleased with the progress of these boys, especially after they had sewed the final buttons on their own vests. Pride mounted as these boys cooked their first meal and labeled it good. Although it seemed strange to see boys roaming around the home ec lab, Southwest was very pleased with their accomplishments. Students were always happy to bring honor to Southwest. Glenda Locklear climbed high as she became both secretary and outstanding D.E. member of the Northwestern North Carolina Distributive Education Association. Glenda is just a representative of the many students who received honors through their untiring work. Homecoming is a traditional ceremony held during the root- ball season. Classes choose representatives, and each of these girls dream of being crowned as Homecoming Queen. However, as in everything, only one person wins, and this year Barbara Parker walked down the football field with a crown on her head and happiness in her heart.
