istory of the Senior ass of '29 l'1kissl5L'kc:, IND., August 28, l98O. .lly dear G7'L11ldlI'lII!fl1lZ'C7'.' l was more pleased than I can say when your Mother told me that you were going to Charles Town High School, my dear old Alma Mater! Of course, she has changed in many ways since I left, but I'm sure her girls and boys love her just as they did when l went there more than fifty years ago. l hold many dear memories of C. H.

Of course, it was grand and glorious being a Senior, but at the thought of leaving C, H. S. we became very serious and regretful of departing. 1 recall that we had the champion cross-country runner, who was also one of the best players on the foot- ball team. Hesides having other members who were shining lights on the squad, we were well represented on the basketball team and in the tennis club. During that year, C. H.
