OCCUPATIONS NIGHT The thought behind Occupations Night was to inform students about different Job occupations. Pifty-four occupations were presented. Students could ask questions, talk and listen to people who worked in these various occupations. The night was divided into three one- half hour periods. Thi3 gave you time to inquire about many of your interests. MILITARY NIGHT The purpose of Military night was to acquaint students with all branches of the Armed Porces. The evening was divided into three one-half hour periods. The Air Porce presented a movie entitled, You which dealt with the reasons why you should stay in high school. COLLEGE NIGHT College night gave us the opportunity to gain knowledge about the college of our choice. The students had questions which they wanted answered, but when we arrived the lights were out. Candles and flood lights were used in place of them. Power was restored in an hour. Sessions were shortened to two half- hour periods after the delay. In spite of this, the evening was a success.
