Fri- day afternoon the Junior and Senior Class Presidents gathered their classes links and hooked them together. At the game it was announced that the Senior Class won with 437 links. During the pep rally, the cheerleaders conducted a trial with the Bulldogs as the defendants and the prosecution included such celebrities as Cleopatra Jones, Shaft, Kojak, Columbo, Ironside, and the Mod Squad. The prosecution presented evi- dence against the team and the Judge, Diane Tracy, sentenced the team to either beating the Goose Creek Gators or an ex- tra 30 minutes of windsprints at the next practice. The Senior Class homerooms each nominated three girls and the top three names were decided on as the Homecom- ing Contests. Rose Mary Kelly, Ilka Draw- dy, and Dclphia Taylor were the three names voted on by the football team. Pre-game activities started with the se- nior football players and their sponsors being presented, followed by the parading of the Homecoming Contestants, Miss Senior, Delphia Taylor, and Miss Junior, Louvcnis Manigo. During half-time the contestants were escorted onto the field and Mr. Jones crowned Rose Mary Kelly as Miss Homecoming Queen. She was then paraded around the field. After the game the Bulldogs and the Band Booster Clubs sponsored a dance for band members, cheerleaders, football players and their dates at the WHS gym. The music was provided by the L.U. and the Groovers. Refreshments were enjoyed by all. The dance was a great ending to the Homecoming activities. Student Life 29

FULL ALREADY? Teachers chat in the Home Economics Room NEEDS SALT? Darlene Drayton and Brenda McMillan enjoy their meal after sc after their Christmas dinner sponsored by Future Homemakers of tng the teachers. America. The coming of Christmas brought many preparations and activities. This year a new tradition was started with the FHA sponsoring a Christmas banquet for the teachers. Much prepara- tion was made and the dinner was a success. The chorus presented a Christmas concert Sunday after- noon, December 15th at the Hampton Street Auditorium. Several nights, Sunday afternoons and classtimes were spent rehearsing for the program. The auditorium was filled with parents, former students and other followers of the chorus. As usual Mrs. Buckner did a great job and the program was wonderful. A float represented the Colleton County Education Associ- ation in the annual Jaycee Christinas Parade. Students from the school system rode and the float won first prize. The yearbook staff sponsored their annual Powder-puff game on December 17th. There was much difficulty getting the girls together for practice because the football season lasted one extra week. The first idea w as to have the Juniors play the Se- niors and the Sophomores play the Freshman. The Senior girls seemed uninterested in practice. Every day the number lessened and in the end Peggy Truluck was the only Senior that played. The Juniors and Seniors played the Sophomores and Freshmen and the w'eather was freezing. The game ended with a 6-6 tie with Joy Nettles scoring for the Junior-Senior team, Kathy Boensch made the Sophomore-Freshman TD. It was not too rough a game but really a lot of fun. The Afro-American Club sponsored a Christmas dance in the gym during lunch. Records wrere played of all the current hits. Money made on the dance was used to fund the clubs projects.
