Eagerly descending from the plane are forty-seven passengers. They fall over themselves trying to get out of that small and cramped spaceship. A meeting is held with SCOTT BRANDON in charge to formulate plans for the future. It is decided by all present that businesses should be established in order to re-populate planet Earth.

Appointed by themselves to acquaint the Russian cheerleaders with American friendliness were: JERRY WETHINGTON, LARRY MANNING, BOB FYKE, KEN SMITH, WADE FARKAS, and RICK YETTER. On the football team were the following: DENNIS MILLS, BOB FINLEY, RON FRENCH, ED PHILLIPS, BOB RAGSDALE, BOB WELLS, TOM PASCHAL, ROGER KLUKIS, and RICHARD WIKOFF. Because of his well-known past of managing at Argenta High, BUTCH EASTER was unanimously appointed as manager of the team. After a furious first half the score was tied-nothing to nothing. At half time ELAINE SIMPSON put on a grand exhibition of majoretting. Beginning the third quarter, the boys came out with renewed spirit. But at the end of the third quarter, the score was still tied nothing to nothing. However in the fourth quarter TOM MATHES intercepted a pass and ran 88 yards down the field to make a touchdown. The only drawback was that he ran the wrong way. The referees conferred and decided to give one point for this wonderful exhibition of footballmanship. Time ran out and the final score was one to nothing. So once again the Earth is ours! !

This year's band, the first to march on our new football field, gave three half-time performances for football fans. Then, after two marching performances in Decatur, the Band retired to the indoors to entertain basketball fans. In the Spring the band attended music con- test and presented its annual band concert. MR. WILKEY Mr. Wilkey has done a great job with the band and dance band this year. He has been teaching in the Argenta Unit now for fourteen years. In the past, we have won about ten firsts at various band contests. Here's hoping the band has as much luck in the future years as in the past. DANCE R. King, R. Luckenbill, G. Brockman J. Helm, D.

Sanitarium at the Decatur Macon County Hospital, and the Lions and Eagles Clubs. On January 11, the dance band played in the Millikin Stage Band Contest. They placed first in their division of the contest, thereby receiving an opportunity to perform at an evening concert. At the concert, Mr. Wilkey received a scholarship for Best Director. bon voyage On June 20 Jeanne Davenport, left, and Linda Hastings, right, will leave for Europe from New York, for a tour with the Youth Band of America.

It was on this day that Harry B. Munch Field was dedicated. This was also the first home game after returning to football. The squad completed the season as a winning team with a 4-3-1 record. The J-V Squad was undefeated. It was a team effort through- out the season with Terry Taylor's punting taking the breath of the opponent's secondary as well as many of the fans. First Row: R.
