9 world peace. His unprecedented, one-day visit in the U.S. was the culmination of plans by men of all faiths. 7 After Surgery—President Johnson was photographed in a reclining chair at Bethesda Naval Hospital the day after his gall bladder op- eration on October 8. He conducted the work of his office from his hospital room and his Texas ranch during his recuperation. 8 Proud Student—Charles Craig, 19-ycar-old freshman at Iowa uni- versity, demonstrated his criticism of draft-card burning incidents by displaying his draft card on his jacket with the note: “I’m a draft card carrying American and proud of it.” Our role in the Vietnamese war sparked the incidents. 9 Blackout The glittering metropolis of New York City was thrust into darkness on November 9 by a massive power failure affecting hundreds of miles along the eastern seaboard. City residents and commuters were stranded in offices, railroad and subway stations for hours before service was restored. The crippling condition was caused by a faulty relay at a Canadian generating station near Niagara Falls. 10 New Ambassador—-Arthur Goldberg was named U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations by the President after the death of Ambassa- dor Adlai Stevenson on July 14 in London. Goldberg was secretary of labor under President Kennedy and a U.S. Supreme Court Justice when named to the U.N. post. 1 1 Startling Fashions—Bold and contrasting blocks of color were the youthful fashion note of 1965. The eye-catching designs even ex- tended the length of campus stockings worn with the costumes. 12 Royalty on Tour—Princess Margaret and her husband, Lord Snowdon, arrived in New York on November 4 for a whirlwind tour of the U.S. During their visit, they took time out for fun-filled activi- ties such as a ride on a cable car in Frisco and gala parties in Holly- wood and the nation’s capital.

EXPERIENCE IN MUSIC The musical abilities of the students of Southwestern Heights were developed through band, vocal and theory of music. Community and school organizations called upon various vocal and instrumental groups for programs . The pep band created a spirited atmos- phere at the football and the ba s ke tba 11 games. Both organizations gained valuable ex- perience by participating in League and State contests. MRS. DOROTHY WILLS-Vocal 13 MR. GARY DOBSON-Physical Education PHYSICAL ACTIVITIES VARY Helping the students of Southwestern Heights develop physically, socially, mentally, and emo- tionally was the goal of the physical education department. Students participated inactivities varying from golf, badminton, softball, and vol- leyball to wrestling, tumbling, and table tennis, and rope jumping. The physical education program has worked at a disadvantage, but with the completion of the gymnasium and the swimming pool the program can develop more fully. SKILLS LEAD TO CAREERS The primary objective of the Southwestern Heights industrial arts department is to introduce the material and techniques of industry to the stu- dents. The new equipment acquired this year has enabled the students to gain a wider understanding in various fields of industry. The new automobile engines, along with working on cars in shop, made it possible for students to gain first hand exper- ience on every working part of an automobile. MR. A. J.

Speech Department MUSTANGS TAKE NINE ONES AT STATE The Drama Class chose, Tim Kelly's, Not Far From the Gioconda Tree, for their contest play. This play has an all girl cast, based on historical fact and tells the story of six Rus- sian princesses who lived in exile for many years. The longing to return home and the depicting of the dream world, into which each escaped, was ably portrayed by the group. The play received a I rat- ing at League, District, and State.

Contest students started the year by at.- tending a Speech Clinic at Garden City. January 29th. This experience proved to be of great help in the selection and presentation of contest numbers. The League Speech Contest was held at Fowler, February 19. SWHentered contest- ants in all events with the exception of Duet Acting. At this meet they received six I's, six II's, and one III. Thirteen students entered in District Speech Contest at Dighton, these students received eleven I's, one II, and III. On April 14th the ten students who had received I ratings at District, left for Fort Hays Kansas State College where the State Festival was held. The Speech Department had been happy with the results of League and District, but they were jubilant over the nine I's received at State. The students pictured on the preceeding pages won the nine I's. The Mustangs also received one II, and III. During the year these students have ap- peared at numerous civic and social gather- ings. This training cannot be duplicated in the class room, and there is no doubt that these opportunities contributed greatly to the fine record set by these students.
