The carnival got off to a good start with tobog- ganing races and a skating party held Wednesday. Skating and skiing races were also held. A basket- ball game against Pittsfield, which Goffstown won by a score of 64 to 40, was held Friday night and was followed by a record hop. Students earned points for their respective classes in various activities. The class in each di- vision which accumulated the most points won an all-round trophy. The winners were: Senior Division -- Class of '59 Junior Division -- Class of '62 Due to the fact that some events were postponed, awards were not presented at the carnival ball. They were awarded at a special record hop held for this purpose.
