Samuel Bice, Frederic Chapman, Charles Mil- ler and Richard Jones became of age and left the class. A Hallowe'en supper and a Christmas party featuring a yule log hunt cele- brated the holidays. The eighth grade has made history by salvaging and selling scrap paper. Starting out with a dollar a month quota, they surprised even themselves by col- lecting enough to buy a bond in just four months. Although they had twenty dollars in the treasury at the end of the year, the usual eighth grade trip was impossible and they decided to buy a second bond. They hope to get to Washington or New York when they are seniors. The class had two sets of officers as follows: Fall Spring President Leroy Blanchard Carl Colburn Secretary Elaine Cornnell Eleanor Ballanger Treasurer Joyce Palmer Ella Hickling
