RED RUBIES The Junior Class contributes to Burt’s treasure chest, twenty-three rubies. The reddest ruby is our President, Kenneth Stevens. The second reddest is Robert Batt, our Vice-President. Ethel Lampe is our most valuable ruby as she is our Treasurer. We rubies have spread our “High-lights” everywhere during the past year with our play and numerous contributions to music and sports activities. Our biggest “High-light was our Junior and Senior Banquet which sent the Seniors off in style. Some Dafinitions Worth Remembering. Etiquette: Learning to yawn with your mouth shut.
