Ninth grade students are now missing one period a day to serve as hall monitors and check on all students passing through the halls during class time. Until recently, a school rule that all students out of class must carry a hall pass issued by a teacher has been only rarely enforced. Now v however, every student in the halls during class is checked by the monitors to see whether or not he has a pass, and to find what is his purpose for being out of class. A daily report of all students in the halls with or without passes is turned into the office by every monitor. ing the students with stump speeches free treats, songs and other such things. For instance: Janice Holbrook livened up the halls with a jazz group consisting of Jay Wimrner, Roger Fullmer, and Harold Weight. Music furnished fur-nished noon time entertainment for all. Bill Knott treated everyone to a sip of apple cider while stump speeches gathered the crowds. Carolyn Wagstaff, Nancy Richards, Rich-ards, Evelyn Russell, Lynn Vincent, and other friends proudly sang their song in support of their candidate Judy Fotheringham. Primary elections were held Tuesday, April 10 before school, at noon, and after. Winners of that election were announced the follow-I follow-I ing day. To gain eligibility to votet students stu-dents had to register in a designated desig-nated precinct by the preceding Friday. The Senior Class put forth a challange to the other classes and won with 86 of the class registered. The Juniors followed fol-lowed with 80, and the Sophomores Sopho-mores lagged behind with 76. The school average amounted to 81. Olympus High School's annual Junior Prom was held last Friday in the school gym. Girls were dressed to fit the theme "Springtime in Paris" or "Enchante."
