Social Makes Dramatic Use of Color and Sound SCOTT BROWN pauses to discuss with Jerry Fogg the possibilities of new decorating ideas that would add creativeness and impressive moods to Wasson's dances. Three to four miles of crepe paper, hundreds of yards of cheese cloth, sticky rolls of masking tape, and the inge- nuity of creative Social Committee members served as the basic structure for each dance. The unique and imaginative Hollywood fog machine highlighted the Christmas f'Sno Fantasy. The weeks of planning made possible the memo- rable nights of Oriental Autumn,'l Moonlight and Roses, and the Inaugural Ball. Providing Hcolor and sound . . . the tones of percus- sionw was Secretary of Social Scott Brown's primary aim. At committee meetings before each dance the members decided theme, colors, ceiling type, and sub-committee heads. Individuals were allowed to work independently as members looked to area business establishments for some of the major decorations. Under the sponsorship of Mr. Jack Frost, Wasson's dances were presented with impact. LOST IN A MAZE of crepe paper, Walt Hooker works atop a towering scaffold, fastening the strips to false-ceiling wires. GRAND FINALE of all Social Committee's efforts arrives with the closing hours of Oriental Autumn. fl. y l -r i if I

Safety initiates Effective Parking Lot Procedures Jim Berthrong, Secretary of Safety, was responsible for the efficient organization of hall monitors, who helped to relieve the congestion in the halls during lunch hours by enforcing safety rules. While increased enrollment at Wasson made it difficult for monitors to control traffic, students and monitors cooperated to the fullest extent. Another important function handled by Safety Com- mittee was the initiation of new parking lot procedures, which were described by Mr. Christensen as being very effective. A full-time adult parking lot attendant saw to it that cars were parked correctly and in the proper places, and that no one came to his car during classes. All cars had to be registered in Mr. Christensenls office and had to display stickers. JIM' BERTHRONG, Secretary of Safety. guards the gates during a lunch hour in order to insure that classes during the lunch hour are not disturbed. JIM ASKS FOR a permit from Rod Stoneburner before his car can leave the parking lot. DAVE VANNATTAN holds the fort as he refuses the requests of Patti Johnson and Bill McClellan to enter the main hall.

ffm? JIM EDWARDS INTERRUPTS the lunchtime cramming of food and facts to sell Wasson pennants and folios. Treasury Committee introduced an entirely new and different button to the Wasson student body. First of its type in the Pikes Peak region, this button bore a picture of the 1963 varsity football team. In previous years, Cabinet members were responsible for all school treasury sales. This year, however, an active Treasury Committee of Wasson students carried out the job of selling pins, book covers, pennants, and decals. Because of the increased selling opportunities, the sale of T-Bird pennants reached record heights. Weather- permitting, the outdoor cubbyhole, also a first for the Treasury Committee, was open in the patio during the lunch hours. Steve Leonard, Secretary of Treasury, and Mr. Kent Hill, sponsor, were responsible for these innovations. LIIMBER EMPTYING HER POCKETBOOK of the last penny, Jac- quelyn Stockwell falls prey to Secretary of Treasury Steve Leonard's sales technique and quick smile. Treasury Pennant Sales Soar to Record Heights MJUST NAME IT and we've got something better for you to buy. Treasury committee members join forces to push sales sky high.
