Generals active as area backers Young people becoming more and more interested in the welfare of their surrounding communities and in the lives of other people, as well as in governmental affairs, made a special effort to become involved and be heard. Many Wayne High School students par- ticipated in the Walk for Develop- ment, the Bike-a-thon, canned food and clothing drives, and in collecting sheets to make bandages. Seniors donated blood to the Red Cross and were given the honor of becoming Junior Rotarians to broaden their education in specific areas of busi- ness. Along with these various community projects, students attended many campaign rallies where they could listen and decide which candi- date supported their own views.
