Though the quality of the pix is not great, there are quite a few with the Moai. The first reads: The new school symbol, the "Tiki". Selected from student drawings (whose?) by Ex. Com. (?), ordered and especially built for the student body. "Tiki" was unveiled at a huge bonfiree pep rally in preperation for homecoming. Now there were some weird rituals...American that is. Apparently the basketball team was called the Islanders, and the schoolpaper was The Islander. But for Tikigod's sake what is the picture of Richard Nixon flanked by two Highschool beauties doing in there, under "We remember", with the caption "The wheels meet and spin"!!?
