Electronics Oceanography Two specialized clubs at Tech are the Oceanography and Electronics Clubs. Both are advised by Mr. Hough of the Science Department. Mr. Hough, who developed the Oceanography Class, has watched interest grow in this popular study during the past 7 years. A major highlight of the school year for this Club’s members is a field trip for the purpose of whale watching. Mr. Hough feels that the club is very beneficial to the students’ education, and enjoys presenting this subject to them. The Electronics Club is in its first year of existence. Club members meet before and after school to work on individual computer and electronics projects. Students have been assigned to local banks and businesses, voluntarily working at computer projects at these locations. Electronics: Eddie Whitley, Gene Lee, Chris McNeeley, Scott Sanderson, Fred Spann. Oceanography: Seated: Tony McDonough, Greg Lockwood, Awilda San- tiago, Dianne Jenkins, Richard Lopez. Stand- ing: Ivan Oliver, Jeff Lockwood, Johnny Ross.

LIGHT UP THE NIGHT In early November, Mr. Wat- son and his Drama Class once again presented the annual tal- ent fashion show. This year’s show, LIGHT UP THE NIGHT, proved to be another fun and financially successful event. The house was filled both nights. The students practiced long and hard, both in and out of school, to iron out problems that the snow had had. Light- ing had to be just right, the P.A. system had to be in working or- der. Everyone had to know what his job was and when to do it. Unforseen problems had to be worked out. All the hard work paid off, and the students who participated could be proud of a job well done. Many thanks for bringing such a fine show to our school.
