This purpose was given a good start toward fulfillment with a series of firsts. The Homecoming Carnival, lt's A Small World , organized by l.C.C., saw Student Council, Cabinet, the Foods Department and the band having booths for the first time. ln November, the council held a charter- signing ceremony in which sixteen clubs formally signed their charters, thus making each a recognized organization. l.C.C. also made changes in the annual Teacher Appreciation Day activities. The teachers were pre- sented with boutonnieres or corsages and apples, and instead of having the whole day taught by students, one period was considered Teacher Appreciation Period, with students teaching every third hour class. l.C.C. worked with Future Teachers of America in having the students as teachers. As part of their regular duties, each month the members of l.C.C. chose one senior girl and one senior boy involved in committees or some phase of school life to reign as senior sovereigns, and in thc spring chose as Club of the Year one club which proved most outstanding in its service to school and community. Lisa Girard, of Inter-Club Council, receives valuable help from John Knippers setting up the Homecoming Carnival, It's a Small World.

I is 1 1 X! t I i I .- ,Q N he ., , V Putting final touches on scenery for Thespians' production of Pinocchio are stage crew members Chuck Donalson and Gary Hughes. Thespians CONTINUING IN THE manner that has won them the title of Best Club of the Year for two years in a row, Thespians initiated new ideas and revived old traditions. For the first time in Wasson's history, the Thespians presented during the fall a melodrama entitled Only An Orphan Girl in which added attrac- tions, olio acts, were presented between scenes. The Littlest Angel which was a traditional part of the Christmas activities at Wasson until 1965, was revived and presented, with the help of Mrs. Paris, as part of the Christmas program. After the Christmas season, Thespians' attention turned to the student production of Pinocchio. Under the student direction of Sue Throckmorton, the all-girl cast presented the play to various elementary schools. The lively scenery for Pinocchio was done by the advanced art classes. These three productions, plus a spring play, enabled interested students to earn points toward membership in Footlighters or Thespians. These students gained experience in presenting drama and learning the aspects of theatrical production - costumes, props, scenery, and dramatization.
