Crater High
By Judi Davis
Here at Crater High, as in
other high schools throughout
the country, we have the mak
ings of a real problem. 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. The
cross country squad was also
awarded their emblems by War-

of many books of the Orient,
stimulated the minds of many
students Thursday as he talked
at an assembly. Park, who was
born in Manchuria, came to this

His talk was one primarily on
the advantages that we have in

realize what we have. After the
talk, many students greeted him
personally.
