Mr. Presley rode the plane the previous day. ven mee TT TT TE The Class of 1975 is shown at left with Congressmen J. Edward Roush and Floyd Fithian on the steps of the Capitol Building on April 30.

Some lucky members got to see a horse- drawn funeral procession in Arlington Cemetary, with the traditional riderless horse with the soldier's boots on back- wards. APRIL 26, 1975 — JR.-SR. PROM We May Never Pass This Way (Again) James Seals--Dash Crofts Life, so they say, is but a game and they let it slip away. Love, like the autumn sun, should be dying, but it's only just begun. Like the twilight in the road up ahead, They don't see just where we're goin' And all the secrets in the universe Whisper in our ears and all the years will come and go and take us up, always up. We may never pass this way again. We may never pass this way again. We may never pass this way again. Faculty members and their dates enjoy the dinner of | clam chowder, salad, fried chicken, green beans, baked potatoes, rolls, apple strudel, and drinks, The 1975 Prom, dedicated to the seniors, was held on the fourteenth floor of the Sheraton Hotel in Fort Wayne. It began at 7:00 and ended at midnight. After the Prom, Funny Car Summer , was shown at the Kent Theater. Many couples went out for breakfast and bowling in Warsaw, and many went to the Dunes.

Contestants were judged in five cata- gories that count varying percentages. These catagories are; Scholastic Achievement, 15%; Poise and Appear- ance, 15%; Youth Fitness, 15%; Creative and Perform- ing Arts, 20%; and a judges interview, 35%. The girls who competed in the contest and their sponsors are Jan Adams, Science Club; Cheryl Chris - toffel, Sunshine Society; Gail Germann, Spectrum; Marlene Mishler, Speech Team; Charlotte Nicodemus, Thespians; Sonya Reiff, Art Club; and Patti Wolfe, Future Teachers of America.

Patti Wolfe was chosen for second runner-up, and she also won the Creative and Performing Arts Catagory with an anonymous poem entitled ''No More Oatmeal Kiss- es'', Gail Germann won the Scholastic Achievement trophy. Marlene Mishler was voted by the eight other girls the Spirit of Junior Miss.

While the record only showed three out of fourteen wins, it did not mean the boys were out of shape. Because of their physical condition and stamina, they only had two players with critical in- juries, Bruce Bryant and Chris Clupper. Coach Hathaway felt there was plenty of potential in the '75 squad, but that the main problem was their lack of football knowledge. The sacrifice of farming time and the bumps and bruises of actual play proved the boys were loyal to the game of football. Practice! Practice! Practice! The boys' summer schedule included an afternoon and an evening practice each day.

WHITKe If you bragged that the Bucks, the Knicks, and the Pacers played basketball in your high gym, you'd probably hear a few snickers. If you added that the Oldtimers, the Teammates, the Mothers, the Losers, and the Anythings also played ball there, you could most possibly lose the confidence of your once understanding friends. All you'd have to do then would be to explain that the school intramural teams, directed by Coach Hathaway, actually played bas- ketball once a week in the gym. Under the names of their choice, 64 boys competed for tournament honors, The Team- mates were the tourney winners with the Mothers as the team who compiled the best record. The faculty team, known of course as the Oldtimers, played each student team during the season and faced the All-Star team for a special game. 81 | j ‘mann warm-up with 1975 Girls' Tennis Team Girls at Whitko got their first petitive tennis this year and did Coach Hess, assisted by Miss Carlton, hopes that with the experience gained this year, and with people becoming more aware of the game, that n better squad.

All the coaches and their assis- tants cheerily post for the photographer. RAH! RAH! RAH! From the time kids stopped to ask What time's the pep session? until you could hear the beat of the drum intro- duction to the schoolsong, there was a kind of excitement generated through the building before a pep assembly. Whether it was just a chance to get out of class or really an interest in what the cheerleaders had planned-no one knows. But it seemed there were more grins than grimaces and there was even genuine laughter when classmates saw their friends getting the 'royal' treat- ment. Whatever-it's hoped the pep ses- sions worked for the reason they were supposed to-to let the teams know there were fans who supported them no matter what.
