It took a lot of time to get every- thing together, but at 7:30, Feb- uary 16, the Class of 1974 got it together, for the last time, to present JANUARY THAW. Besides the curtain not working, the smell of little Pigs, and play books flying across the stage dur- ing the performance, the play was a success. Fteida There is a big thanks due to Karen Smith the stage crew. Wards Furniture, Mrs. Jane Foley, and Mr. Don Morgan for all the furniture and scenery they provided.
