At the basketball games we ran a stand and sold soda pop, candy and hotdogs. With a few arguments and misunderstandings we finally came out ahead. Our play 'THE CLOCK STRIKES TWELVE' was given on March 27. We entertained in honor of the Seniors with a banquet at the Lutheran Church basement. We will tell you more about it if or when we publish a yearbook. That will be when we are Seniors. -by Sandra Fleming and Bill Ivy f- I F - ,J 'r .
