As a first year sport, the wrestling team presented a demon- stration to instruct students on the rules of wrestling. In November, the Sunshine Society sponsored the singing group “The Revelations.” A movie, “In God We Trust,” was shown by the Mentone Bi-centen- nial Commission during a program in which awards were presented to members of Advanced Speech class for their Bi-centennial speeches. 10 Friendship is a horizon—which ex- pands whenever we approach it. E.R. Hazlip ii TVHS Parents “Swap” For A Day Over 200 parents returned to school November 19, to participate in TVHS’ first “swap day.” Many parents made discoveries during their visit ... that they could not eat lunch in 30 minutes, they weren't experienced enough in walking halls, opening lockers and going to classes in 5 minutes and that school life was not as easy as they remem- bered—or was it that they weren’t as young as they used to be? The result was an enjoyable learning experi- ence for parents, teachers and students. T'-' ffi ? . Dedication: November 16, 1975 The majority of the people in this great nation of ours believe in and support the concept that our demo- cratic form of government can sur- vive and prosper only through an educated citizenry. This fine build- ing, which we dedicate today, takes its position, with pride, as the most recent school structure in our school corporation and is visible evidence that the people of our community support this belief in education. We thank you for making the building a reality and are happy that you can take part in its dedication. School Board of'TVSC Presenting “Once Upon A Mattress” Directed by Dale Pace and Nancy Yeiter, the Drama Club presented the musical “Once Upon A Mat- tress.” Based on “The Princess and the Pea,” the story unfolds in a mythical kingdom ruled by a mute king and an overbearing queen whose son. the wishy-washy Prince, is unmarried. A law of the Kingdom states “Throughout the land no one may wed ’til Dauntless Shares his mar- riage bed. Unfortunately, Prince Dauntless’ marriage is not possible until Queen Aggravin finds a “true princess” who can pass a “fair” test. Twelve contenders have failed the test when Sir Harry sets out to find a true princess so he can wed Lady Larken. His “find is Princess Win- nifred who excitedly races Harry back to the castle and proceeds to swim the moat before accepting Dauntless’ proposal much to the Queen’s dismay. Yet Aggravin refuses to surrender so easily. She demands that Fred” must be given a sensitivity test to prove she’s a true princess. Fred must spend the night on a bed of twenty mattresses with a pea placed beneath the bottom mattress. If she sleeps the entire night, she’s a fraud. To the delight of all, Fred doesn’t sleep a wink. Dauntless stands up to the Queen and claims Winnifred. With this move, the King regains his speech and the Queen loses hers. 16 Opposite page; upper: (seated) S. Good, T. Smalley, J.

One of the major events of the year was the class trip to Washington in November. Seniors also ventured to In- dianapolis where they visited the state capital. These trips combined enabled us to better understand our system of government. 36 In anticipation of graduation the seniors chose as their class song, Theme From Mahogany,” class motto, Tomorrow Belongs To Us,” and the yellow rose' as the class flower. May 23 was chosen as the day for the final phase of their school memories. 37 Brian W. Kelly: Art Club 3-4: Spa Club 1: Newspaper Staff 3-4: Art Club President 4.
