Many students and faculty helped in the 1963 Folio Drive by sel¬ ling and buying peanuts. “Sold to the junior and senior girls for $30! ’ The slave sale was officially opened on Monday, January 14, with the sale of Hon Fortner, junior, for $30. It was the first of many projects initiated by C.H.S. students to raise money for the March of Dimes. Thirty dollars was raised in a bake sale spon¬ sored by the Student Council. The sale was held at Tip Top Supermarket and Montgomery Wards in the Village. Another competitive project was the “dime climb’ . The goal was the longest roll of dimes on scotch tape. The contest was between the four classes. Over $150 was netted from this project. “Peanut Day” was held in late February when 60 cases of peanuts were sold for a nickel a bag.
