Winter
Park held Melbourne for the first three quarters with a
one point lead, but then something happened in the last
quarter to set Melbourne on a wild rally of touchdowns.
The final score came out with the Wildcats taking their
final loss of the season, 25-7.
Winter Park's sole scoring came with a
93-yd. drive climaxed by a 11-yd. dash by Leslie King. Senior
flashback Ray Myers ran 69 out of the total of 103 yds.
gained by Winter Park.
This weeks' Wi-Pa-Hi-Sc Outstanding Player
of the Week goes to two of our Seniors. Ray Myers and Gene
Mooney are both co-captains for the 1960 season. Both are
two year lettermen and are key men in their playing position.
Ray ran our first touchdown of the season and Gene added
the first extra point and all the rest to follow. Gene and
Ray are also top defenders in their area. Congratulations
to guard Gene Mooney and fullback Ray Myers.
(P.S. In the Melbourne game we only got
penalized for 5 yards.)

Hay
Ride Held
The SENIOR Hi-Y held its
first social of the year a couple of weeks ago, following
the successful "Turkey Hop" held after the Apopka
game. Pat Phillips supplied the truck and David Sias pitched
in the hay.
There were thirty-six happy couples and
five bales of hay on the truck, and they all wound up about
9:00 at a destination owned by Mr. Phillips. A fire was
built and all had a really grand time. Ruling over the event
was Barbara McCartney, the Hi-Y sweetheart of 1960-61.

The
Student Council voted over-whelmingly last week to appropriate
$500 from the United Appeal fund for the construction of the
Winter Park Youth Center. The W.P.H.S. United Appeal fund
is in no way connected with the county United Appeal. It was
set up last year in order to lighten the burden on the student
of the many drives throughout the year. Under the new system
we spend one week collecting money for the whole year. Then
the Council appropriates the money to the different charity
organizations as the needs arise.
Last Wednesday the Council felt that if
it went "all out" on this drive maybe the individual
clubs would follow in its footsteps by raising money to donate.
The full support of the student body is expected and parents
are urged to contribute whatever they feel they can afford.
Door to door contributions are now being made, so please don't
turn the workers away. If it's only the change in your pocket,
it will help.
During the last meeting it was brought to
the attention of the Council that some of the debts from the
auction are still unpaid. It's going to be very embarrassing
for some people if they don't attend to this matter immediately.
Plans are now underway for the presentation
of Oklahoma by the Student body sometime in March. The royalty
of $250 will be paid by Mr. Wilson who will be reimbursed
at a later time. All of the organizations of publicity, music,
stage hands, and costumes will be handled by the Inter-Club-Council

with
the cooperation of Mr.
Hotaling and the Glee Club. The story calls for both male
and female singers, so y'all try out.
A new club has been officially chartered
now. Its the Wildcat Modelers Club. Its purpose is to promote
model airplane building and flying at WPHS.
The only qualifications that you must have
an A.M.A. license. Anyone interested should get in touch with
Mr. Creech, their sponsor.
Auditions for an act to represent WPHS New
Year's Eve at the Orlando Youth Center are being handled by
Susan Chace. Announcement will be in the bulletin, so all
you talented Wildcats, let's see what kind of an act you can
get together.

The
annual Christmas parade, which was held last week, was the
largest Orlando has ever seen. There were 99 floats with 150,000
- 250,000 spectators. The Winter Parker's gals in the parade
were Suzie Gray, Jeannie Jones, Jackie Cook, Jo Anne Horvath,
Sandy Cash, Sharon White, Rosemarie Vardell, Barbara McCartney,
Suzie Miller and, of course, our band.
ATTENTION, BOYS! Mr. Gordon, our guidance
counselor for boys, is very lonely in his little office. Any
problems you might have would be greatly appreciated. According
to him, the only problems he has received have been those
about Solid Geometry! He'd be glad to annul any of the twirp
twirl marriages!
JUST A THOUGHT --
Please all and you will please none.
