However, there are a few things which we thought we'd leave behind to liven the place up a bit. For instance, Frank Buerge leaves his curly black hair to Ronnie Dinges. Ronnie, you should be able to wow the girls now. Margaret Litle leaves her ability to play basket- ball to Dorothy Eckart. Dorothy has most of the ability already so she won't have to improve much. Carlton Marble leaves all the back roads parking on Saturday night, to Harvey Roth Since Harvey's such wcn't mind David Helluth decided classes and being teachers Pollard needs something to his ability to be caught on a lover boy anyway, he surely to leave his way of cutting pet to Richard Pollard bring up his grades Blanche Bates leaves her ability to capture the hearts of redheaded men to Jo Ellen Thompson Maybe this is just what you wanted, Jo? Midge Northup leaves her flirty ways to Doneita Stonestreet, since Doneita won't have to change her ways much. Betty Wheeldon leaves her loud voice to Lou Ella Oringderff, since Lou Ella needs something to help strengthen her voice. Dorothy Sieker leaves Kenneth Coy to Mona Lou Getz Kenneth, I am afraid you have nothing to say about this matter Donald Sieker leaves his uncombed hair and his shirt tail which always hangs out to David Knight, since David always has amused Donald with his nice manners. Janet B eeden will pert with her way with men and give it to Shirley Cantrell Shirley may not need it, but you never can tell, can you Shirley Maisie Gaston wills her unopened test books to Jackie Marble Jackie, are you planning to use them, or carry out Me1s1e's record? Richard Cavanah leaves his athletic ability to Kenneth Coy and Coleman Norris He realizes that it will take two at least to ever equal his muscle building ability This is what we leave behind us, together with this advice. They always say where there is a will, there is a way Well, we have left the will, now you find the ffl t 11' f, 'l s Wg. V Janet Frm mage A Q X F. inklffi K 4' f 1 gf? N g Maisie Doro th?
