Because of the snail size of the town hall and the cond- itions vrtiich resulted from a large crowd last year, Franklin High School has found it neccesary to reserve seats for rela- tives and close friends of t '- graduates. Each Senior has been given six reserved seats. There are plenty of other seats avail able (about 100 ) for the rest of the public. The Juniors are wiving the graduating class a reception the following niaht at eight o'clock. Admittance is by invita- tion only. The alumni of the past three years will be invited by the school and each gradu?.te will have twenty invitations. The Junior class requests that you bring your invitation with you.
