CHRISTMAS WEEK Tigers Claim Victory With New Charity Act Presenting Lake Oswego with their first 'Scan' - a regal gold toilet - Tigard student body officers launched a new tradition between the rival schools. A canned food drive provided the highlight for Christ- mas activities as Lake Oswego succumbed to the Tigers. Over 6,000 cans were collected by THS students, but the final victory was won by only 7110 of one can per student contribution. Lake Oswego's executive council presented Tigard students with candy canes and a new rotating trophy. The losing school will traditionally be given the old toilet painted, to be repainted in the appropriate school colors. Other action planned by the Activities Committee added to the color of Christmas Week. Starting Monday, each class was responsible for decorating a hall using the holiday spirit as their theme. Faculty members found it hard to judge the gaily decorated corridors. Sophomores captured first place, with their catchy greeting, Put a Tiger in Your Christmas, thus earning five pep trophy points. The junior hall, featur- ing Snoopy and his gang, came in second with three points. The seniors, looking into the future with their tin tepee, ended last getting one point. Highlight of the Friday assembly was when senior Cindy Knebel was crowned queen. Her escort was Fred Pfaffle. The seniors, for the third consecutive year, won the canned food drive collecting a record 7.5 cans per person. For this activity they earned 42 pep trophy points. The juniors came in second, and sophomores finished last. A last min- ute scramble to the cannery and surrounding stores added to the excitement and spirit of the upperclassmen. The seniors collected over S45 to be able to bring in 36 cases of canned food. Cans were eagerly accepted by the Amer- ican Legion, which passed them out to local needy families.
