This problem is the over-display of affections. As of now, it is not a problem, and we want to make sure that it is not going to be one. The student council in the past weeks has been working on a solution to this problem. We have written a code to specify what we condone. This is Crater High's Code of Conduct "We, the students of Crater High school, feel that there are certain social standards set up in a society that must be con formed to by all. We have decided that the holding of hands is permisable and anything beyond that is showing disrespect for the indi vidual, the school and the com munity. We feel this code should not only pertain to the school hours, but also at all school functions throughout the school year." In order to demonstrate what the student council meant by this code, we sponsored a secret as sembly Friday. Student Body President Joe Teeter, opened the assembly by explaining a need for the change, and reading the code to the student body. Then, a skit was presented. Pat King read a humorous poem as sev eral students portrayed the char acters of the poem. "Neckling Nellie" was played by Linda Warren with Bill White, "Mar vin Make-out" was played by Randy Campbell along with Pat ty Cowie, "Clinging Cleo" was played by Judi Davis with Rich ard Evans, and "Lover Louie was Warren Straus with Pat Pef- fley. Each of the "couples" dem onstrated their parts in the set ting of typical day in the halls during classes. Then along came "Proper Pete" and "Sunnie Sue" demonstrating the right way to act by just holding hands and talking to each other. They were portrayed by Joe Teeter and Sandra Guss. As each of the other "couples" saw them, they changed their minds and acted properly as they returned to their classes. The laughter was so great that it was difficult to hear the poem, but the point was well accepted. After the skit, Joe returned to talk about the skit, and to show signs of each of the "char acters" to be posted in the halls. The general opinion of the assembly was a good one. The council hopes students will heed the message of the assembly be fore any drastic action has to be taken with a few of the stud ents by the deans. The second part of the as sembly was the awarding of the football letters for the varsity, junior varsity, and freshmen squads. Coaches Warren, Lamb and Piche awarded the emblems to their respective teams.

Kyle, President No-Yong Park, noted author of many books of the Orient, stimulated the minds of many students Thursday as he talked at an assembly.
