MAGAZINE DRIVE The magazine drive began this year on September 27 and continued until October 11. The drive was a great success and a great benefit to the school. It was good experience for the students, for they learned a lesson in salesmanship. One captain was chosen from each room to take the money and keep a record of the magazine subscriptions sold. At the end of the first week, prizes were awarded for the top salesmen. Timothy Mayo received five dollars as first prize, Linda Williams three as second prize. Frederick Morse and Richard Blackstone tied for third place, each receiving one dollar. The final awards and certificates were given out in an assembly on November 9. Timothy won a radio as first prize: Linda the Parker pen and pencil set. Carlene Snow, Frederick Morse, and Richard Blackstone received certificates for selling thirty dollars' worth or more of subscription. All other persons earning two or more credits received certificates. Owing to the success of the drive, our gymnasium has a fine new electric scoreboard, and all who took part in the drive helped to make this possible. RICHARD BLACKSTONE, '54.
