Despite the cold weather, Coach Ioe Greeno sent his classes outside to keep in shape with exercises and calesthenics. During one ot the Worst blizzzards, students were attending the annual music clinic in Omaha. Because ot snow blocked roads, it was rather uncertain when they could return. However, with little delay, they arrived safely and we welcomed them with open arms. Home economics girls proved their style sense by staging a fashion show. Each girl made and modeled her own dress along with two other outtits. They learned to make unusual Christmas candies and cookies which we willingly sampled. Hide-andeseek was played by Miss Qlta Kiblers senior English classes when they produced their own radio programs, H microphone was set up in Kibbies closet with a loud speaker in the classroom.

They kept alert and up with the news, for current events and discussions were tied up with the elections. Physical education was another class that was a benefit to all. lt kept everyone physically and mentally fit. In the fall when they played games such as softball and baseball outside, sometimes the air got mighty chilly, but the fun was worth that and more. Later on in the year, volleyball and soccer took up most of their time, ln our classes, we did not neglect to learn the value of a dollar. When the ag boys decided to go to Kansas City for a convention, a way had to be found to earn money to get there. When all of them got together, they capped the idea of selling scrap iron, and made enough money to pay for a trip they all enjoyed. This was one of the many good times they had during the school year. Book week was not forgotten either, judging from the display of new books in our library. Pl Parnassus on Wheels was the theme that our librarian planned for Book Week. The faculty tea, given by our librarians, Miss Qrny Figard and Miss Hazel Shostrom, was another highlight of Book Week.
