NATIONAL CONVENTION For the -first time in our school's history, WTHS was represented at the National Association of Student Councils' Annual Convention. This con- vention is held with the purpose in mind of im- proving our country's Student Councils. This year's convention was held in Roswell, New Mexico, June 23 to June 27. Craig Yerkes was chosen to represent Bucks, Lehigh, and Mont- gomery Counties. He was sponsored by the Tri-County Student Council, which paid part of his expenses for the trip. There were T3 stu- dents representing Pennsylvania and 400 dele- gates trom the whole United States. Upon re- turn frorn the convention Craig made this state- ment, L learned at the convention that our Stu- dent Council is among the best in the country. STATE CONVENTION This year, as well as in the past few years, our school sent delegates to represent WTHS in the State Convention. This year's convention was held at Kennett Square High School in Kennett Square, Pennsylvania, October TO-12. Two sen- iors, Pat Rhoads and Jim Ward, were chosen to represent us at the convention. Both agreed that the convention was beneficial and added that they found Tennent's council to be very ef- ficient compared to others in the state. 4 V 67 XA W, ,- J.,-ff' This year's Craig Yerkes an K bt I 4... ,Z P.

REMINISCENCE After a briefing concerning the duties of yearbook staff members, the class submitted the names of the students they wanted to work on the annual. The staff members were finally chosen from these nominations by the stu- dents and from suggestions by the faculty. During the summer the only work done was the choos- ing of the cover and the type of paper wanted. Many staff members were on vacation. After school re-opened a staff meeting was called at which the rough dummy was prepared and duties as- signed, The selling of ads was begun, patrons were so- licited. Layouts were finished. Write-ups were started. Everybody was kept busy. Mr. DuGan and his staff did a terrific sales iob. The photographer arrived and had a big iob on his hands. All senior pictures were taken. The struggle to get the proofs returned was underway. Classes and activities came next. Saturday, December 7, loomed before the staff as the first deadline. Pictures arrived on Monday, December 2. After school-to work. Layouts were completed. Pictures were stamped. Then calamity! Snow sent us home early on December 3, and canceled school the next day. Some staff members, not daunted by t'h'e elements, continued their work, Write-ups were edited and typed, The bundle was mailed on Saturday at the zero hour. Every staff member heaved a sigh of relief, Relaxation was not to be ours. February 8 was closer than we realized. We were determined not to be caught in the last minute rush. More ads were sold. Pictures were selected and rejected, We never realized the same name could be spelled so many different ways. Again we were working after school and long into the night hours. Weary, but by no means defeated, we sent the second pack on its way on deadline number two. February 8 to March 8 contained fewer school days than we realized, so we used nights and week-ends, The final push for ads was on. Snapshots were selected. Copy was checked and rechecked. The last page was finished and the shipping record was finally completed. Our final deadline was met!
