This year someone tried to alibi that he’d just thrown chunks of White Rain, but the Administration didn’t recognize that excuse and enforced the no snowball- ing rule. School busses couldn’t run and school was called off on three occasions. We enjoyed the unexpected holidays. But all good things come to an end.

I gave a test and those kids didn't make a move that I didn't see. I've made up my mind. I'm going to become a mathematics teacher.

The chief result is that we realize the many phases of running a senior high school for 1600 stu- dents. It's a responsibility we're glad to share, but we’re equally glad that ours is not the whole responsibility. 18 Mr. Bender moke» tuggetlion» lo lewit Bemon for the final louche» on hi» fray.
