'Greasy Kid Stuff' recdptures fifties That greasy kid stuff was in great demand as guys slicked back their hair to recapture Fonzie's Happy Days look. A return to the 1950's-designated as Nostalgia day-climaxed Tiger Week's activities. Three contests during the week involved students and teachers. Student Council sponsored its annual Pin-the-Tiger contest with competition be- tween classes to stick the greatest number of pins into stuffed tigers. Key Club's Key Person was designated daily.

'saff- ,, 'ir 41,523 asf' at Q I , , 'fc Extracurricular activities require student involvement Involvement outside the routine 8-3 school day gave a new dimension to school life. Seniors who did not need a full day's credit for graduation left at lunch, some to work, and others to occupy their time until p. m. when extra- curricular activities really began. Clubs this year demanded more student involvement, and in turn gave students a closer feeling of unity. Club enthusiasts met regularly, whether for business or poster parties or hayrides. Probably the most nerve-rack- ing time for club members-and sponsors-was homecoming as most stu- dents had to divide their time between the two or more clubs in which they were involved to construct displays. Anticipation of club commitments really made members stop and con- sider how much self-satisfaction was to be gained.
