Assem- blies provide education as well as entertainment, and help us to lcnow our teachers and classmates. The Senior Class presented the first program and starred in the clothing drive assembly. Educational assemblies included an explanation of fire, a movie about sea voyages, and a talk on Russia. Honor Society and Awards assemblies honored outstanding students. At Christmas The Littlest Angel provided entertainment. Assemblies this year also introduced can- didates for the Homecoming court, for cheerlead- ing, and for Student Council offices.

QUGGYI. Sophs Pay Tribute to Alaska at Formal lce and snowflakes added a touch of magic to the wonderful evening for this year's sophomore winter formal. The Alaskan Fantasy theme was carried through by transforming the ballroom of the Student Union into the dead of winter. The frigid atmosphere was soon broken by the music provided by Dale Dungan. ln keeping with the Alaskan theme, the forty-ninth couple to enter was chosen to reign as king and queen of Alaskan Fantasy.

Ball- room and band chaimian was Joe Burger, deco- rations chairman, Sue Myers, tickets chairman, Sue Landgraf, invitations and program chairman, Karen Schiffbauerg and publicity chainnan, Donna Ives. The parents of the sophomore class officers were among the special guests. Because a great amount of time and effort had been spent on decorations, the Class was disappointed when attendance was not what they had expected. l5
