They immediately turned to the books which contained the highest knowledge and pro- ceeded to study. In their spare time fand most of it was sparej they turned to other activities to quench this desire to be always on the go. This great class of ,41 led the school in both learning and activities.

Dudley Robinson is an experienced and successful trip-planner. Finally, he has decided to take a trip, just he and his family, but the folks don't know about it yet. Margaret Robinson, Dudley's wife, had decided to remodel and re- decorate the home and hadn't told the family about it as yet. All this is for the children, but the children had plans of their own. Elaine was interested only in skiing reports, Sandra, the oldest, was secretly engaged to John Richards, a serious young insurance salesman- though no one would ever know it, because of her frequent association with Ken Bristol, a high-pressure young radio announcer. Pat in the interest of her own affections, hated to see John dangling at the end of a string, and wanted Sandra and John to tell the family. Ken was very put out about Sandra's engagement, and threatened to announce it over the radio. In the meantime, Mrs. Dunn had persuaded Mrs. Robinson to let her give the news about remodeling to the radio, and Mr. Robinson had decided to give Ken permission to announce about the trip over the radio. John tried to tell Mr. Robinson about Sandra and him, but Mr. Robinson doesn't have time. Then the announcement of Sandra and John's engagement, the remodeling, and the trailer trip are all an- nounced over the same program. This caused great excitement in the Robinson home and reporters, photographers and neighbors gathered around the house. Mr. Robinson Went out to sleep in the trailer, Mrs. Robinson is prostrated on the davenport. Sandra, in disgust, broke her engagement to John, who immediately found solace in Pat's affection. All this left Ken free to pursue eagerly his suit with Sandra. Finally Mr. and Mrs. Robinson came to an agreement and shooed Sandra and Pat off to a double Wedding, and Elaine off an a skiing holi- day, and all ended in peace and contentment. 17
