The Christmas
Spirit: How Does
One Get It?
Christmas Day is Decem
ber 25, Monday. Now, let’s
see, that makes it only three
more days until Christmas!
Is “I just don’t seem to have
the Christmas Spirit” a fre
quent thought or saying of
yours this year?
What, people, is Christ
mas Spirit? Is it the feeling
you get when you read a
beautiful Christmas story,
or sing a carol, or trim the
tree, or open a gift from a
friend?
Christmas is the day we
celebrate Christ’s coming to
the Earth to dwell among
men. We Americans cele
brate this season in a tradi
tional way. If the tree,
songs, and presents are tak
en away, what becomes of
the Spirit of Christmas?
How does one get the
Christmas Spirit? It is
found only within your
heart!
By You . . .
As one who has no purpose
except
to wander through the grey
of the mind and dreams
long abandoned by you, me,
and other things.
Who is lost except
me, with wondering at
what’s going on
who’s to figue it out
but He who makes all?
Events that mess and break
minds
to work against me, you, and
other things
how can we stand; why do
we stand
Except to fight, destroy, and
then love.
Measuring out yours and
mine and others’ lives
with cigarettes and coffee
spoons . . .
who’s to know except He
that makes all
and He’ll never tell.
—Ken Kinsey

Glee Club Presents
Annual Christmas Program
The Glee Club of Chat
tooga High School, under the
direction of Mrs. Nell Tay
lor, presented its annual
Christmas program last
week. The program was pre
sented during the second
period on Friday, December
15. Due to a lack of room,
the program came to us over
the intercom.
The solos were as follows:
Debbie Joyner, "I Wonder as
I Wander”; Bobbie Petitt,
"Gesu Bambino”; Kathleen
Marteen, “O Holy Night”.
Descants on some of the
songs were provided by four
girls in the chorus.

got under way, three Christ

DECORATIONS HERALD
YULETIDE SEASON
During the past weeks and
days, CHS has been ablaze
with holiday color and deco
ration. The center of at
traction was the giant
Christmas tree that stood at
first in the lobby, then in
the lunchroom after the
dance.
The tree was covered with
balls brought by students
and featuring their name
and graduation year.
On Tuesday, the last day
before school ended for the
holidays, students ate lunch
in a rather romantic atmos
phere. Through the talents
of Gloria Vaughn and her
famous FHA girls, CHS stu
dents dined by candlelight!
Now what is more romantic
than roast turkey and
flickering candles!
Several homerooms have
carried out the holiday spirit
by the use of Christmas
trees, holiday bulletin
boards, and other such deco
rations. Doors of many
rooms were appropriately
decked with colorful paper,
wreaths, and Christmas
greetings.
Mrs. King’s mathematics
lab featured a tree deco
rated with geometric design
decorations. Mrs. Ellis’s room
had a bulletin board with
the names of all the students
in the room during the day
and a greeting. The library
tries were presented. They
were “The Japanese Christ
mas Carol”, "Fum, Fum,
Fum” and "I Wonder as I
Wander”.
The program was: “Christ
Came to Bethlehelm”, “O
Little Town of Bethlehem”,
“As Joseph was A-Walking”,
“Away in a Manger”, "As It
Fell upon the Night”, "Once
on a Lovely Hill”, "Yea. the
Heavenly Child is Born”,
"Christ is Born on Christmas
Day”, "Go Ye to Bethlehem”,
“Angels We have Heard on
High”, "The First Noel”,
“Hark the Herald Angels
Sing”, "Silent Night”, "Gesu
Bam bi n o”, "We Three
Kings”, "O Holy Night”.
INDIAN LORE
PUBLISHED BY AND FOR STUDENTS OF CHATTOOGA HIGH SCHOOL
was in true holiday style
with the window of the con
ference room and the bulle
tin board dressed in Christ
mas finery. Several girls had
the spirit as they walked the
halls with “bells on their
toes.”
To complete the festive
holiday spirit that prevailed
at CHS, carols were played
over the intercom at lunch
and the break.
Many clubs took part in
holiday projects of their own
or helped the Student Coun
cil collect toys for the
needy. The Tri-Hi-Y an
swered a call for doll cloth
ing, and collected food for
needy families. The Library
Club placed a box of books,
fruit, and candy under the
Student Council sponsored
Christmas tree.
The Christmas spirit
abounded at CHS and stu
dents did their part toward
making Christmas happy for
their fellow students, as well
as the needy children of our
community.
Mr. and Mrs.

Tri-Hi-Y: Christmas
Activities
Christmas each year is
celebrated In many ways.
The Tri-Hi-Y of Chattooga
High School has done sev
eral things to spread the
Christmas spirit this year.
The girls collected food and
clothing to distribute to the
poor. They also contributed
Barbie doll clothes to help
make some little girls smile
this Christmas. Toys were
collected to help the Student
Council in their effort to
collect toys.
This Wednesday night at
8:30. the Tri-Hi-Y girls will
go Christmas caroling. After
the caroling, refreshments
will be served at the Baptist
Church. They also plan to
take a fruit basket to the
rest home.

FROM THE
EDITOR’S DESK
Thank You: Thank you,
Glee Club and Mrs. Taylor,
for a most inspiring program
last Friday. Although you
were unable to see or hear
our applause, your presenta
tion was well received by stu
dents and faculty alike.
Good Response: This year,
as in the past, you have an
swered the VFW’s call for
gifts for needy children. Re
alizing that you receive no
thanks for this gesture, you
have again filled in the bare
spot beneath “Our Christ
mas Tree.”
Security is . . . Knowing
that Christmas holidays are
December 20 through Janu
ary 1!
Merry Christmas: Your In
dian Lore Staff gives you a
most unselfish present this
year. We sacrificed celebrat
ing Tuesday afternoon just
to get this special edition
out! Since it’s too late to
give us a Christmas present,
we’ll be happy with a New
Year’s one. Resolve to buy
an INDIAN LORE every
week! Merry Christmas, ev
erybody!

WHAT IS IT? An invasion from Jupiter? No, it s
just the ugly (cute?) mascots won by those juniors
who sold at least S4O worth of magazines during
the Junior’s recent magazine sale. They are: (front
row, L-R) Marla Payne, Paula Hardeman, Jan
Parham, Kay Pledger, and Diane Williams. (Back
row L-R) Rebecca Busbin, Michael McNair, Nelda
Dowdy, David Smith, and Jenith Plunkett. By
the way, the “ugly (cute?) mascots” are the little
ones with the black hair!
Maria’s Megaphone
The Chattooga Indians
played host to the Cedar
town Bulldogs at the Junior
High gym on Tuesday, De
cember 12. The Cedartown
lassies defeated the Indian
girls 59-47 in this region
6-AA thriller. Quarter scores
stood 14-14. 30-20. and 42-
39. Mullinax sank 26 points
for the Bulldogs and Nancy
Hale led Chattooga with 22
points.
The Cedartown boys
downed our boys 75-40.
Wright was high scorer with
17 points for the Bulldogs.
Friday night the Indians
engaged in another region
game, this time against the
Wills Tigers. The final score
of the girls’ game was Wills
56, Chattooga 44 Harper of
Wil’s was responsible for 32
of those 56 points. Wanda
Darden hit 27 points for
CHS.
The Wills boys, after a
pre-game warmup show,
The Summerville News, Thurs., Dec. 21, 1967 it
emerged with a 71-51 victory
over the Indians. Skelton
scored 23 points for the Ti
gers, followed by James Mc-
Michaels with 21 points for
the Indians.
The Junior Varsity boys
put up a good fight against
Cassville Monday, but the
J. V. Colonels came back to
win 37-34.
In varsity action, the girls’
team was defeated 64-27,
which is the biggest score
gap that they’ve faced all
year. P. Starnes hit the bas
ket for 28 points for the
Colonels.
I don’t believe I’ve ever
seen the student body get as
excited and show as much
spirit at a basketball game
as did the Chattooga fans
during the boys’ game. The
students almost lifted the
roof off of the old gym, even
though there were fewer
fans than usual at the
game. The Indians really
fought a hard fight, despite
the fact that Cass won 76-
66 Gary Duke scored 27
points for Chattooga and
Given scored 21 for the Col
onels. I really think that our
boys deserve a pat on the
back — besides, they’ll get
those Colonels next time!

Well, Randy, it seems like the school’s “Most Hand
some” boy could somehow find a date! Come on
“prettiest” Yvonne, quit teasing him and say
YOU’LL accept.
Yvonne and Randy:
Prettiest & Most Handsome
For very obvious reasons
(as you can tell from the
above picture), CHS seniors
chose Yvonne McCollum and
Randy James as the most
beautiful and most hand
some of the class of '6B.
Chattooga High is proud
of “Von” and Randy. Their
great personalities, their
spirit, activities, and accom
plishments; as well as their
attractiveness; help to make
them two darn good CHS’ers!
Yvonne, voted Homecom
ing Queen this year, is a
member of the Summerville
First Methodist Church. She
is assistant editor of the SE
QUOYAH staff, treasurer of
the "C” Club, a member of
the Tri-Hl-Y, FTA, and Spir
it Association, and is a senior
representative on the Stu
dent Council. Yvonne has
represented Chattooga on
the Varsity Football Cheer
leading Squad for the past
two years, serving as co-cap
tain this year. She is also co
captain of the Varsity Bas
ketball Cheerleaders.
When asked, "What is your
beauty secret?”, Yvonne re
plied. “Coconut oil.”
Randy was an escort in the
Homecoming activities at
Library Dons
Christmas Apparel
A social, with Coke and
cookies for refreshments,
substituted for the regular
monthly meeting of the Li
brary Club. Cokes were sent
to the teachers’ lounge, so
that they, too, could enjoy
the festivity of the season.
Library Club members are
responsible for the lovely
decorations that adorn the
Chattooga High Library.
The symbols of Christmas
form a background for a
small Nativity scene. All the
ornaments contribute a fes
tive air to the library.
Tis the season to be Jolly! The Library Club girls
seem to think so, anyway, as they pile their plates
high with holiday goodies. The picture was taken
at the Library Club’s Christmas party held in the
Home Ec lab.
BUSTER BROWN
I AMERICA'S FAVORITE CHItDREN'S SHOES
AWAIT YOUR SELECTION AT
CHS for two consecutive
years. He served as a Junior
Marshall in the Graduation
Exercises last year; and, is
presently a member of the
VICA.
When asked his beauty se
crets, Randy answered, "I
use ULTRA-BRITE. It gives
me sex appeal!!"
In My
Opinion . . .
In keeping with the
Christmas spirit, the INDI
AN LORE asked some Chat
tooga High students the fol
lowing question: “WHAT
DO YOU WANT SANTA
CLAUS TO BRING YOU
FOR CHRISTMAS?”
Paula Hardeman—“Eight
little reindeers that fly
through the air!”
Nancy Hale — “Chimney
for Santa to slide down!”
David Batey—"4,2B7 pieces
of bubblegum!”
Mrs. Echols —"A nice,
quiet place with no 4th Pe
riod study hall!"
Marilyn Houston — “A
babydoll that walks and
talks!”
Cheri Durham—“ The Jolly
Green Giant!”
Jamey Jackson — “Some
new candles for Mrs. Ech
ols!”
Charles Black—“A softer
seat in 4th Period study
hall!”
Janice Haney — "Buttons
and bows!”
Charles Anderson —
“Building blocks!”
Dianne Bennett—"A Little
Miss Fussy Doll!”
Mike Hutchins—"A quiet
refuge from my relatives!”
Judy Mosely—"A Giggle
Doll!”
Mrs. Howell — "My car
back to me!”
