Mr. Bertrand Hudnall and Hop Committee chairman Walker Box discuss the hanging of festoons for the Homecoming dance.
Hop Committee Given Solid Student Support
The Hop Committee, sponsored by Mr. Bertrand Hudnall, planned and helped host a number of dances with neighboring girls' schools; it also planned Homecoming and finals dances.
The group of four seniors, three juniors and two sophomores worked long hours picking bands and decorating for the dances. Serving as president of the group was Walker Box.
Finding themselves with a slight deficit of funds for the finals dance, Hudnall and his committee solicited contributions from the student body. This marked the first time that students had ever donated money from their own pockets. The response was favorable, and the finals dance was considered a marked improvement.
Hunt Taylor, Charlie Johnson, Cac Hoyle, Charlie Green, Richard Ward, Frank Johnson, Bob Peterson, and Steve Shelton comprise
the 1968-69 Hop Committee, which initiates, plans and coordinates the school's dances.
