Leather Jackets Replace Letter Jackets The school year got off to a good start when the Keyettes sponsored a fifties dance with a fifties day as its prelude. With almost one hundred percent participation, the school rocked and rolled” to the beat of Elvis Presley, Little Richard, the Crescents, and the Platters. Smiles covered the faces of many as bobby socks, leather jackets, ponytails, and ducktails entered the school. By the end of the day, Tabb High looked like a frame out of Sons and Daughters.” The jukebox was brought into the lunchroom, and kids and teachers alike jitterbugged to the great bands of the fifties. TTiroughout the day, the Keyettes had observed the many participants and awarded Larry Wilson and Pam Terry as best dressed fifties male and female. Later that evening, ponytails were adjusted, leather jackets shined up, and the fifties mob descended onto the school. T ' le vibes of the fifties bounced off the walls, which were decorated with forty-fives. The dance finished on a good note with many complaining, I still want to dance!” Tfie Keyettes felt the dance was a total success, both for themselves and the school. People went off jitterbugging into the night while Keyettes counted their money; two hundred and eighty, two hundred and eighty-five, two hundred and ninety . . . Jeff and Carol gaze around the smoking area and wonder why everyone is dressed so strangely A punk straight from Hell’s Angels”? No, it’s our Itxal ladies’ man, Larry Wilson; enough to make your heart stop. Looks as if the senior lounge is in for a surprise attack. Ken Roderick and Mike Wirt make the scene with letterjackets from way back when. And the faculty had an even better time. KEYEITES- O’s DA ' S

New Year — Renewed Enthusiasm ' After ;i fairly dormant previous year, the Keyettes took on a new glow under the direction of the new sponsors Miss Michelle Garvin and Mrs Marva Roberts. The school year, quite literally, got to rocking and rolling” with the first project of the year; a fifties day with an ensuing fifties dance. Both the day and the dance were attended with vigor and the Keyettes came out on top with a total in their treasury of three hundred plus. The dance was just the beginning. Under the leadership of Kim Ely, president, Melanie Bailey, vice-president, Karen Hughes, secretary, and Cindy Fisher, treasurer, the Keyettes performed services for both school and community. Along with district meeting, r allies, and ROT on alternate Sundays, the Keyettes still had time for dinner meetings, cookie- baking for the Red Cross Blood Mobile, and a Coaches Day for the York game. ’74-’75 has proven to be a new beginning for the Tabb High Keyettes and hopefully, a solid precedent has been established for the years to come.
