HAY EEE IJEEIEERS by Mildred Swim and Janet Hackel Yea Wyandotte! Let's go Bulldogs! These could well be the words heard from about four hundred Kay Cee members, cheering our foot- ball or basketball team on to victory. The membership of the pep club is history- making in size. The reason being the newly adopted constitution. This is the first year that anyone may join-be they sophomore, junior or senior as long as they fulfill the requirements. A new freshmen pep club has also been or- ganized. They too must fulfill the same require- ments as the upper classmen. This new system has worked very successfully under the able leadership and guidance of Mr. William Mc- Intire, the sponsor, or Mr. Mac as he is affectionately called. The Kay Cees sponsored three big dances: the Fall Festival, the Spring Festival, and the Spring Formal. A play and two athletic ban- quets were also on the agenda. We're sure everyone holds memories of at least one of these occasions. To belong to the Kay Cees is a high honor and to students wishing to join it is a challenge to make your years at Wyandotte memorable ones.
