A fertile ground for male-female relationship development. Extremely crowded. They're a real gas. Better than staying at home and watching Hogan's Heroes. The general atmosphere wasn't that good, but the entertainment was excellent. There you have it the pros and cons of Senior parties. After an initial failure, the forces regrouped and attempted different angles towards the parties. Live entertainment was tried, and proved very successful. Juniors were invited for the first time in an attempt to boost attendance. Both new facets of the parties worked well as the crowds began to assemble. For the first time Senior parties were a huge success. Captivating his audience, lead singer Jim Jensen gives his own version of a Noil Young classic. Heart of Gold. 201 Seniors

CJGB Survives “Explosive Competition During the dwindling days of the school year, out lovely campus exhibited an assorted amount of streamers, stickers, and trumpets as it became engulfed in the furor of ELECTION 1976. In the limelight were forty various Juniors who attempted to immortalize themselves via being triumphant in a battle of wits, will, and women. The ten slates, each consisting of four able, attentive, and audacious juniors, were narrowed to three: BOMB, FHSL, and CJGB. These three slates then competed in a round-robin tournament in order to discover the ruler of the school in 1976-77. During the all-important debate, the main issues were the renovation of the Senior Lounge, more concerts, and a change in the disciplinary system. Even though these were the main issues, they were overshadowed by the per- sonalities of the members of the three slates. Another controversy was the voting process. During the previous year. Freshmen and Sophomores were allowed to vote with the Juniors. But this year, the Juniors decided not to allow the underclassmen to vote. When the parade began, the three slates eagerly responded to the challenge by relying upon tactics usually reserved for street fighting. Each slate hired demonstrators to mill around W. 30th Street to disrupt parade proceedings. These mercenaries began to distribute peanuts, popcorn, pretzels, and other assorted paraphernalia. In the end, CJGB was victorious in a relatively simple and well-fought final election. Connors — Jensen — Gavin — Bader captured the hearts and minds of all Igna-tians with their sportsmanship and sincerity.
