Hi-Iites It started out like any ordin F riday -- that morning of Fric October 18. There was the usual rally, for we were playing footbal Taylor that night. As usual, we the auditorium early -- perhaps quarter to twelve. And then it happened! Some in the lunch room saw smoke curl through the auditorium windows. There was a shrill cry of terr a rushing outside, a scream - ' auditorium's on fire! For a while we thought the wt building might go up in flames. Tears streamed down the che of some who watched. Seniors w dered where they would have tl' graduation exercises. All thanked God that the auditorium was cleared fore the fire broke forth. By two o'clock the fire was out. The announcement came that th would be no school on Monday, Over the weekend, students and helpers engaged in a clean-up job. Tuesday everybody was back at school. And though the process has l: slow, the auditorium will be ready for use when school opens in Septem- ber, 1955. u-n..:-,-H
