Page 15 text:

“Let’s really sell magazines!” was the by-word as the Prestonian staff and the FFA boys began their magazine subscription cam- paign. The trombone quartet members are starting another practice session in preparation for the music contest. Winter’s cold brings forth each student's entire attention to books and classroom activities. Meanwhile, extra-curricular activities occupy much of their spare time. The seniors are busy working on yearbook pages. The juniors experienced the thrill of ordering class rings. The sophomores are enjoying their class par- ties. The freshmen are now entering into the full swing of the school's activities. The hard work necessary to earn victories in basketball and honors in music contests, all help to make winter a very busy season. 11
