We saw four movies this year-Tyrone Po-wer in L'The Mark of Zorro g Fibber McGee and Molly in Here We Go Again , Frank Morgan in The Dancing Pirateug and Laurel and Hardy in The Flying Duces . At the time this was Cahemj composed these were al'l, but we're still hoping! Christmas comes in here somewhere. We got a ten-day vacation and came back the day after New Years.

Chiefs were red-hot this year and everyone was of the opinion we should have taken first place fwe got thirdj in Little Six Basketball Conference. Bob Vollers smashed the Little Six records with a grand total of 238 points. Guys and gals jived in the gym after most of the .Friday games.
