ycoUar to tivaC Tin .Junior ( lass this year decided to have a carnival instead oi following the former custom of giving a play. The date of the gala event was November 22, at 7:30 p. m. The doors to the gymnasium were opened to the public and thus began a very successful evening. Right free acts were presented by the members of the class. Various food stands and concession booths were set up around the gym and ripples of laughter were heard coming from them during the entire evening. A feature of the carnival was the giving away of a Westinghouse Electric Oven, a Dormeyer Electric Mixer, a Stewart-Warner Radio, a record player, and a pressure sauce pan. Altogether about four hundred paid admissions were received and over $325 was cleared from the carnival. flu Uo%-Senior 'P'uuh On May 8, at 8:30 p. in., the annual Junior-Senior Prom was held in the high school gymnasium. The gym had been decorated as a night club. It was very pretty and seemed to add to the delightful strains of Bill Oetzel and his orchestra. A highlight of the evening was a twenty minute floor show presented by the orchestra members. Refreshments of punch, angel food cake, sandwiches, nuts, and mints were served throughout the evening. At 11:30 p. in. the music stopped and by midnight a very enjoyable evening was just a memory. JUNIORS Insert—John Moery, president; Audine Tompkins, vice-president; Alan Hendrix, secretary-treasurer.
