An evening of fu ' SN ' BALL Miss Munson and her 4th hour Chemistry class sponsored a Polio Benefit Dance this year for the first time. It wasa semi-formal dance for alumni and sen- ior-high students attending. The theme used in decorating was a typical winter scene. At one end of the gym was a giant snowman. Table decorations consisted of miniature snowmen made of apples and marshmallows. Entertainment was furnished by the girl 's trio, Dean Piche, and Milo Peterson. The main attraction was a guest, Mr. Bob Munson who did some wonderful im- personations. B. NELSON, D. SCHORNACH, R. IENSON.
