Gil Wilson, assistant principal, gave his opinion concerning the food drive: ‘The students of Bay High should be commended for their concern over the welfare of others.” Families whom the baskets are to be sent were selected by the Civic Club from names turned in by the students and from lists of past years. Some homerooms have decided to plan a complete meal, In these rooms everyone will bring a cer- tain item and the cless will buy a chicken to complete the dinner. The rest of the classes will follow the standard pattern and members may bring whatever they like, For those who can bring them, clothes and toys are welcomed in this drive also. The baskets that do not contain a planned meal will be sorted so that all the baskets will contain more or less an equal amount, mM, ‘iv points are not be giv- voms participating in year as Mas been Miss Wood explains ’ “We feel like the have a big enough y won't have to be ‘y and Shirley Mur- and vice president ve been directing vith boasting their Advertising of handled by a by the home- + local pastor, when talking ‘ive. “Remem- 2 in need is of Christian -pecially com- adents of our out such a Young people ‘ng on behalf ne Christmas find it easier sroughout the ne,” HNSTON ‘istma Message ucational ities Are Johnston a season of giving | Since our 1 to us it has been jion of both spirit- .poral blessings and in, America have been more than any other One of our greatest bless is equal educational oppor- ities for all and yet how often ¢ take these things for granted and-fail to make the most of our opportunities which are to other people.
